Changes in pathogenesis-related proteins in pepper plants with regard to biological control of phytophthora blight with Paenibacillus illinoisensis 

 -  Biocontrol, 50(1), p.165-168, 2005 .
<br/><br/> To evaluate the biocontrol effectiveness of chitinase-producing bacterium, Paenibacillus illinoisensis strain KJA-424 against pathogenic strain of Phytophthora capsici in pepper plants, growth response and kinetics of pathogen related (PR)proteins were estimated after inoculation with P. capsici (P), and with a combination of P. capsici and strain KJA-424 cell culture (P+A). Fresh weight and chlorophyll content in shoots at P+A-treated plants significantly increased by 23.4 and 34.2
