In vitro, phenolic compounds inhibited mycelial growth of B. fabae. A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the beneficial effect of seed presoaking in phenolic compounds on faba bean plants (Giza 429) as alternatives to fungicide to increase faba bean resistance against chocolate spot disease. Treatment of infected faba bean with phenolic compounds caused noticeable reduction in the disease incidence, disease severity, root growth, shoot growth, pigments content, RWC, osmotic pressure, total soluble sugars, ions content and growth inhibitors. On the other hand, the same treatment caused noticeable increase of SWD, proline, total soluble nitrogen, organic acids, the activity of defense enzymes, growth promoters and yield... |
