Elicitation of a sensitive sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum) cultivar roots by immersion in the culture medium of Trichoderma album induces resistance in leaves infected by Phytophthora capsici. In infected tissues, host cells are intact and develop wall formations that look like typical wall appositions, but differ from them by the presence of a substance of cytoplasmic origin, which is phagocytized and degraded, conferring a lytic function and unusual dynamics to these structures. The involvement of the endoplasmic reticulum and peroxysomes in eventual detoxification processes is discussed. The resistance induced by this elicitor seems to be programmed by the establishment of a reactive physiological state, which produces the defense response.

<em>Phytophthora capsici</em> es el principal fitopatógeno del cultivo de chile (<em>Capsicum annuum</em>) y de diversas plantas de interés comercial en México. El desconocimiento por parte de los productores sobre la presencia de este patógeno en zonas de cultivo dificulta la prevención y manejo de la enfermedad. El objetivo de este trabajo fue identificar y caracterizar morfológicamente aislados obtenidos de cultivos de cucurbitáceas y solanáceas con síntomas de “marchitez” en Jalisco y Michoacán, México. Los muestreos se realizaron durante 2016 y 2017. Los 41 aislados de <em>P. capsici</em> obtenidos de plantas enfermas se analizaron por morfología comparativa con base a caracteres sexuales y asexuales. Se caracterizaron 33 aislamientos del cultivo de<em> C. annuum</em>, seis de <em>C. pepo</em> y dos de <em>S. lycopersicum</em>. La mayoría de los aislados presentaron características morfológicas típicas de<em> P. capsici</em>. Solo un aislado presentó clamidosporas, globosas y terminales (aislado de Queréndaro, Mich). Se registraron 40 aislados heterotálicos y un aislado homotálico. Se determinó la patogenicidad de siete aislados, asociando a<em> P. capsici</em> como el agente causal de la marchitez para estos aislados y para siete analizados en un estudio previo. Los 27 aislamientos restantes solo se asociaron a la enfermedad. Se sugiere realizar un manejo integrado de este patógeno en las zonas de producción de Jalisco y Michoacán.

Fruits and vegetables are an important supplier of biological active substances, such as vitamins and secondary metabolites (SM) for human nutrition, but also for further industrial applications. Pepper (Capsicum annuum) is grown and consumed all over the world as a fresh vegetable or dried as a spice. It is also used as a coloring agent, as well for medical purposes. Pepper fruits are considered as an attractive source of health-related compounds, but other organs like the leaves and stem also contain considerable amounts of antioxidants, e.g., phenolic compounds. This indicates potential for valorization of residual biomass from horticultural production by using innovative bioeconomic concepts. Herein, we present an overview about the biosynthesis of phenolic compounds, with a special focus on flavonoids and their regulation in pepper, the current knowledge of amounts and distribution of these valuable substances, as well as possible strategies for: (1) increasing flavonoid contents in pepper, (2) improving the nutritional value of fruits, and (3) new concepts for utilization of residual biomass from horticultural production.

Phosphite has been recommended to enhance plant resistance against Phytophthora. This work evaluated the response of hot and sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) to Phytophthora capsici from juvenile up to the adult stage following treatment with phosphite. Sweet pepper hybrids considered to be resistant to P. capsici, like Reinger, Nathalie and Athenas, were evaluated. The susceptible checks were hybrid Magali R and cvs. Myr 10 and Ikeda. Hot pepper Criollo de Morelos 328, CM 334, BGH 3756, BGH 5122, CNPH 294 and Locorte were used as referential resistant lines. Phosphite did not have an effect on the hot pepper resistant lines because of their genetic homozygozity, while no protection was observed for the Athenas hybrid claimed to be resistant. Heterozygous hybrids recognized as resistant, like Reinger and Nathalie, showed higher survival following phosphite treatment, and their reaction was equivalent to the resistant cvs. CM 328 and CM 334, except for the fruiting stage. Depending of the hybrid heterozygous genotype, phosphite possibly acts through indirect phytoalexin induction through the inhibited pathogen.
