PeaT1 and PeBC1 Microbial Protein Elicitors Enhanced Resistance against <i>Myzus persicae</i> Sulzer in Chili <i>Capsicum annum</i> L.

The green peach aphid (<i>Myzus persicae</i> Sulzer), a major and harmful chili aphid usually managed using chemical pesticides, is responsible for massive annual agricultural losses. The efficacy of two protein elicitors, PeaT1 and PeBC1, to stimulate a defensive response against <i&...

When compared to positive (water) and negative (buffer, 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0) controls, the rates of population growth (intrinsic rate of increase) of <i>M. persicae</i> (second and third generations) were lower with PeaT1- and PeBC1-treated chilli seedlings. <i>M. persicae</i> demonstrated a preference for colonizing control (12.18 ± 0.06) plants over PeaT1- (7.60 ± 0.11) and PeBC1 (6.82 ± 0.09) treated chilli seedlings in a host selection assay. Moreover, PeaT1- and PeBC1-treated chilli seedlings, the nymphal development period of the <i>M. persicae</i> was extended. Similarly, fecundity was lowered in the PeaT1- and PeBC1-treated chilli seedlings, with fewer offspring produced compared to the positive (water) and negative controls (50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0). The trichomes and wax production on the PeaT1 and PeBC1-treated chilli leaves created a disadvantageous surface environment for <i>M. persicae</i>. Compared to control (30.17 ± 0.16 mm<sup>−2</sup>), PeaT1 (56.23 ± 0.42 mm<sup>−2</sup>) and PeBC1 (52.14 ± 0.34 mm<sup>−2</sup>) had more trichomes.
