THE USE OF ENERGY-DISPERSIVE X-RAY SPECTROSCOPY IN PLANT PROTECTION

Abstract

Material is given from a review of foreign literature data on using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDRS) in plant protection. Currently, the main method for accounting for the degree of infestation by plant pathogens is that of visual determination based on visual assessment of infection symptoms on different scales. It is shown that for early detection of pathogens and evidence of involvement in the pathogenesis is possible to use different variations of the EDRS. The preliminary studies carried out at the Siberian Research Institute of Fodder Crops with the use of this method have confirmed this possibility. It is shown that herbarium specimens of affected plants can be used in research for comparison with healthy ones. Quantitative and qualitative differences have been revealed in the composition of elements: thus, the potassium content in affected tissues is significantly higher than that in healthy plants.
