Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L., cv. Samsun) leaf discs inoculated with tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) were treated with auxin-like herbicides 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA), 3-amino-1,2,4-triazol (Amitrol) and 6-chloro-2-ethylamino-4-isopropylamino-1,3,5-triazine (Atrazin). All herbicides in the concentration of 10-7 M enhanced the virus content (MCPA to 227.4 %, Amitrol to 218.1 % and Atrazin to 257.3 % of values found in TMV-infected, herbicide untreated discs). The 2,4-D alone did not affect the activity of the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and ribonucleases, but the 2,4-D treatment together with TMV infection raised their activities twice as high as in the untreated control discs. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of acidic extracellular proteins washed from leaf discs treated with 2,4-D did not prove the induction of PR-proteins.
