Table 1. IC50 values for rAtPDF2.3 against yeast and plant pathogenic fungi.
Microorganism | IC50 (μM) |
---|---|
Botrytis cinerea B05.10 | 5.8 ± 0.0 |
Botrytis cinerea R16 | 5.8 ± 0.0 |
Fusarium oxysporum | 4.4 ± 1.6 |
Fusarium culmorum | 1.0 ± 0.4 |
Verticillium dahliae | 4.4 ± 1.6 |
Fusarium graminearum PH-1 | 1.4 ± 0.0 |
Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741 | 8.1 ± 0.9 |
Fungi and yeast were treated with a concentration range of rAtPDF2.3 for 48 or 24 hours, respectively, after which the IC50 values were determined microscopically for fungi and spectrophotometrically for yeast. IC50, the concentration required for 50% growth inhibition as compared to control treatment after either 24 hours for yeast, or after 48 hours for fungi. Data of at least three independent experiments are shown (n ≥ 3).
