Abstract:
A strain of F. avenaceum, originating from oat roots, was resistant to lower, but sensitive to higher, levels of the oat root saponin avenacin. It reduced root and shoot development of ''Arnold'' oat seedlings as well as the avenacin content of roots. In vivo, the fungus converted highly active avenacin into the inactive aglycone avenamin by cell wall-bound .beta.-glucosidase and .alpha.-arabinosidase. The meaning of this defense mechanism in the colonization of oat roots by F. avenaceum is discussed.
