    Chili (Capsicum annuum L.) production is threatened by the pepper yellow leaf curl virus (PepLCV), transmitted by whiteflies, leading to reduced yields. This study investigated the biochemical changes in two chili genotypes, PEP6 (tolerant to PepLCV) and Homsuphan (susceptible to PepLCV), following inoculation with the Thailand strain of PepLCV (known as Pepper Yellow Leaf Curl Thailand Virus, PepYLCTHV). Inoculation was performed using whitefly transmission (WF) and graft transmission (GT) methods, and disease severity was evaluated using a standardized index. The level of total phenolic compounds and the activities of peroxidase (POD) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) enzymes were analyzed in virus-infected plants and compared with those in uninoculated controls. Both chili genotypes exhibited a more rapid increase in disease severity when inoculated with WF than with GT. In PEP6, disease severity was lower than Homsuphan in both WF and GT inoculations. Disease severity in WT-inoculated PEP6 plants increased gradually, reaching 100% by day 36, whereas Homsuphan plants had a more rapid progression, attaining 100% by day 21. The GT method led to slower disease severity progression in both genotypes, reaching 80–85% by day 36. In PEP6 plants, total phenolic compound content increased significantly following WF, indicating an active defense response, whereas levels remained stable in GT plants. Phenolic content in the tolerant genotype Homsuphan remained stable across all conditions. Notably, peroxidase (POD) activity was elevated in GT plants of both genotypes, which correlated with reduced disease severity. Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity was lowest in control plants, but WT and GT increased the PPO level. Among the treatments, GT induced the highest PPO activity, which was associated with the lowest disease severity. These findings suggest that GT may enhance disease resistance by modulating phenolic compound accumulation and increasing POD and PPO activity.

    The tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) is one of the most important vegetables grown globally. However, the production of tomatoes is restricted by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (Fol). This study aims to investigate the ability of Fol-resistant tomato genotypes to be a rootstock for the susceptible cultivar. In this study, a tomato cultivar was grafted on rootstocks of the same species (intraspecific), and grafting compatibility, peroxidase gene expression, and fusarium wilt disease incidence of tomato scion was evaluated. A Fol-susceptible tomato 'Sidathip 3' (SDT3) was grafted onto four different Fol-resistant tomato genotypes and compared with self-grafted cultivar/cultivar and rootstock/rootstock. The survival rate of all grafted plants was 100% at 20 days after grafting (DAG) without significant differences in incompatibility evaluated at 42 days after grafting. The expression of the peroxidase gene (Solyc02g084800.2) using the qPCR technique was compared in self-grafted rootstock LE472/LE472 and SDT3/LE472. The expression level was three times higher in heterografted plants than in self-grafted ones at 15 DAG, indicating graft incompatibility. The rootstocks did not affect the height of the plant, the number of branches, the size of the fruit, or the yield of SDT3 scion. All intraspecific heterografted plants significantly controlled Fol when evaluated 60 days after inoculation. These results showed the usefulness of intraspecific grafting by using the proper rootstock genotypes to increase pathogen resistance in addition to stimulating growth and fruit yield.
