Polyphenol Oxidase Induction in Lulo Fruits (Solanum quitoense) Infected by Colletotrichum acutatum

Polyphenol oxidase (PFO) activity induction was evaluated in lulo fruits to determine the role of this enzyme in resistance responses towards the pathogen Colletotrichum acutatum which causes anthracnose disease. We studied the experimental conditions to obtain the enzyme, using lulo peel, and found...
