Histopathological features of infections caused by Fusarium oxysporum and F. solani in purple passionfruit plants (Passiflora edulis Sims)

Abstract: The purple passionfruit plant, Passiflora edulis Sims, ranks second in fruit exportation in Colombia, and its main destination is the European market. However, its production is affected by several diseases, including fusariosis. This paper presents the histopathological features of different tissues affected by the pathogens Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium solani. Both microorganisms produce similar responses on the plant: colonization of xylem vessels by hyphae Ortiz, E.; Cruz, M.; Melgarejo, L.M.; Marquínez… Show more

“…Nevertheless, hypertrophy, cell wall degradation, losses of turgor pressure in the cells, and rot was observed in stem internal tissues. These symptoms are likely a sign of enzymatic activity produced by the fungus (Ortíz, et al, 2014;Köller, et al, 1982;Bateman & Basham, 1976 produce extracellular enzymes such as amylase, lipase, cellulase, protease, and lacase. Some similar symptoms of cell degradation have been reported in wheat infected by F. culmorum and F. graminearum (Jackowiak, et (Meiting & Shaosheng, 2010), potato infected by F. roseum (Mullen & Bateman, 1975), and maize infected by F. graminearum (Gao, et al, 2004).…”

“…Passionfruit is widely used in the food industry due to its edible qualities while passionflower (flowers of P. edulis) is recognized by its effects in the Central Nervous System and its implementation in traditional medicine in South America and India (Patel, 2009;Montanher, et al, 2007;Ocampo, 2007) (Ortíz, et al, 2014;Londoño, 2012;Gardner, 1989). Both F. oxysporum and F. solani produce structural damages in xylem, phloem, cambium, and parenchymatous cells (Saniewska, Dyki, & Jarecka, 2004;Bishop & Cooper, 1983).…”

“…Once inside the root system, the fungi are initially limited to the root or the plant base and, at some point, begin to spread to the vascular system. The damage is due to colonization of xylem vessels by hyphae and microconidia; hypertrophy and hyperplasia of the cambium, xylem, and phloem; destruction of xylem fibers and amyloplasts in parenchymatous cells; and production of gels by the plant (Ortiz et al, 2014). Eventually, the combination of the fungal growth in the vascular system, fungal toxins such as naphthoquinones and fusaric acid (Rocha et al, 2016), and defense structures produced by the plant hamper the absorption and transport of water, causing wilt and death of the plant (Wheeler and Rush, 2001).…”
