Faba Bean-Wheat Intercropping Can Control the Occurrence of Faba Bean Fusarium Wilt by Alleviating the Inhibitory Effect of Benzoic Acid on Disease Resistance Metabolism and the Expression of Resistance Genes.

ABSTRACT: Background: Continuous cropping leads to the accumulation of autotoxic substances in faba beans, which limits their global production. Intercropping is widely used to alleviate these problems. Aim: This study aims to explore the important role of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fabae (FOF) and benzoic acid stress in enhancing the occurrence of faba bean Fusarium wilt and the potential mechanism of faba bean-wheat intercropping to control the occurrence of this disease. Methods: We analyzed the pathogenic mechanism of FOF and benzoic acid and the defense response of faba bean-wheat intercropping against the autotoxicity of benzoic acid under hydroponic conditions that included the pathogen alone and in combination with different concentrations of benzoic acid. <
