TABLE 3.
Soil enzymatic activity in the three konjac growing sites affected by different levels of soft rot disease.
| Site | Sucrase activity | Urease activity | Catalase activity | Polyphenol oxidase activity |
| (mg⋅g–1⋅day–1) | (μg⋅g–1⋅day–1) | (μmol⋅g–1⋅day–1) | (mg⋅g–1⋅day–1) | |
| ND | 5.52 ± 0.01b | 14.84 ± 0.17a | 1.43 ± 0.11a | 99.67 ± 0.42a |
| MD | 5.62 ± 0.02a | 7.57 ± 0.10b | 1.07 ± 0.05b | 50.50 ± 0.38b |
| HD | 4.58 ± 0.01c | 6.17 ± 0.13c | 0.91 ± 0.09b | 36.75 ± 0.57c |
ND, MD, and HD represent the non-diseased, moderately diseased, and highly diseased konjac stands infected by soft rot disease, respectively. Values are means ± standard deviation (n = 3). Means followed by different letter are significantly different [p ≤ 0.05; least significant difference (LSD) test].
