Abstract
AbstractThe levels of peroxidase activity in roots of non‐infected tomato plants resistant to Verticillium dahliae Kleb., were found to be considerably higher than those in the roots of susceptible plants. Similar differences were found in the leaves but were not significant as in the roots. Peroxidase activity increased in leaves, stems and roots of both susceptible and resistant plants after infection with V. dahliae. The ratio of the increase in leaves and roots of susceptible plants was greater than those of resistant plants. A positive correlation was found between the peroxidase activity in the roots of eleven cultivars/breeding lines and presence of Ve gene.
