Abstract
Apple is one of the most important economic products of Iran and the world. Apple brown rot disease (Monilinia laxa) is one of the important diseases that cause yield reduction in pre-harvest and post-harvest stages. Increasing the activity of defense enzymes, including antioxidant enzymes such as peroxidase and catalase, is an approach to enhance apple defense system. Increasing the activity of antioxidant enzymes can reduce the excessive amount of malondialdehyde (MDA) produced by plants under stress, thereby maintaining the stability of the cell membrane and increasing the plant's tolerance to stress. Proline is a protective amino acid maintaining cell membranes and plant enzymes that regulates the osmotic balance of the cytoplasm. Many genes are activated or deactivated upon plant's response to the pathogen, and their expression may also increase or decrease following infections. Therefore, it is necessary to study and track the level of gene expression during biotic stresses, especially defense genes that play an important role in response to stress response. The aim of the present research was to show how genes respond to biotic stress
