Photosynthesis of Peanut Canopies as Affected by Leafspot and Artificial Defoliation1

Abstract: Cercospora sp. leafspot and defoliating arthropods are major pests which reduce the yield of peanuts (Arachis hypogaea L.) in the southeastern United States by decreasing the amount and effectiveness of photosynthetic surfaces. Nevertheless, in the past, yield reductions have been empirically predicted from season‐end yields without considering the intermediate effects of leafspot or defoliation on canopy photosynthesis. Information on short and long term responses of crop growth processes to these pests is vi… Show more

“…Cercospora sp. leafspot in peanuts (Boote et al, 1980) and Verticillium dahliae in potato (Bowden and Rouse, 1991 )). The contribution of both components to the overall reduction varies and is related to the relative extent of diseased and dead leaf area.…”

“…The disease process that is a result of the interaction between a pathogen and its host leads to changes in several physiological processes of the host plant, including dark respiration, photosynthesis, translocation of water and nutrients, transpiration, and regulation of growth (Lucas, 1998). Fungal infection generally reduces the photosynthetic rate by decreasing functional leaf area and reducing the photosynthetic efficiency of the remaining green leaf area (Livne, 1964; Raggi, 1978; Boote et al., 1980; Bastiaans, 1991; Shtienberg, 1992; Bassanezi et al., 1997, 2000; 2001). Dark respiration of leaves usually rises after infection (Daly et al., 1961; Raggi, 1978; Owera et al., 1981; Martin, 1986; Bassanezi et al., 2001) in consequence of increased metabolic activity of cells of the diseased leaf (Lucas, 1998).…”

“…Understanding the physiological changes of a pathogen's host during the infection process can help to predict the effects of diseases on crop growth and yield (8,10). Photosynthesis, a major driver of crop yield, is the key physiological process affected by foliar pathogens (6,7,12,13,33).…”
