A STUDY ON THE NATURE AND PROPERTIES OF PLANT VIRUS INHIBITORS EXTRACTED FROM THE CHENOPODIACEAE

Abstract


This investigation revealed the presence of potent inhibitors of TNV in extracts of Chenopodiaceae. Sixteen out of 22 examined species showed total inhibition giving more than 90% inhibition. Dilution of examined species indicated that they act as inhibitors of . virus infection rather than inactivators. Since their inhibitory properties decreased on progressive dilutions.


Results of heating Chenopodiaceae extracts suggest that at least main component of the inhibitory activity in the residue is protein or glycoprotein, since the inhibitory properties of most extracts destroyed by heating. C.album extract was unaffected by heating at 100°C for 10 min (thermostable), suggesting that the inhibitor may be either polysaccharides or other non proteinaceous inhibitors.
