“…According to the production ratio, pepper is ranked the sixth among commonly grown vegetables in Turkey (Aytop et al 2014). However, yield and quality of pepper is decreased by many diseases that cause great losses in its production (Abou-Zeid et al 2016). Many soilborne fungal root rot and wilt pathogens such as Rhizoctonia solani Kühn, Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid, Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht.…”

In this study, we investigated the toxic effects of the captan fungicide by using morphological, physiological and cytological parameters in bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L. var. grossum L. cv. Kandil) root tissue. The seeds of bell pepper were germinated in Petri dishes including different concentrations (0, 25 μM, 50 μM, 100 μM, 150 μM) of captan fungicide for 7 days. The germination rates and root lengths were significantly reduced in captan-treated seeds. All concentrations caused a significant decrease in mitotic index and increase in different types of chromosomal abnormalities such as c-mitosis and chromosome stickness in meristematic cells of bell pepper root. Captan treatment also induced oxidative stress by leading to membrane damage with an increase in root electrolyte leakage in 7 days-old bell pepper root. Catalase, glutathione reductase and total peroxidase activities increased under different concentrations as a response to oxidative stress. Our results showed that captan fungicide had negative effects on germination and growth in bell pepper seed.

Fungal infections transmitted through the soil continue to pose a threat to a variety of horticultural and agricultural products, including tomato and chilli. The indiscriminate use of synthetic pesticides has resulted in a slew of unintended consequences for the surrounding ecosystem. To achieve sustainable productivity, experts have turned their attention to natural alternatives. Due to their biodegradability, varied mode of action, and minimal toxicity to non-target organisms, plant-derived protectants (PDPs) are being hailed as a superior replacement for plant pesticides. This review outlines PDPs’ critical functions (including formulations) in regulating soil-borne fungal diseases, keeping tomato and chilli pathogens in the spotlight. An in-depth examination of the impact of PDPs on pathogen activity will be a priority. Additionally, this review emphasises the advantages of the in silico approach over conventional approaches for screening plants’ secondary metabolites with target-specific fungicidal activity. Despite the recent advances in our understanding of the fungicidal capabilities of various PDPs, it is taking much longer for that information to be applied to commercially available pesticides. The restrictions to solving this issue can be lifted by breakthroughs in formulation technology, governmental support, and a willingness to pursue green alternatives among farmers and industries.
