Endogenic Phenolic Compounds of Barley as Potential Biomarkers Related to Grain Mycotoxin Production and Cultivar Selection
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Barley is the fourth largest cereal crop in the world. Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the diseases in barley producing mycotoxins, such as deoxynivalenol (DON), that could affect grain quality as well as human and animal health worldwide. Due to limited reliable biomarkers to i...

description | SIMPLE SUMMARY: Barley is the fourth largest cereal crop in the world. Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the diseases in barley producing mycotoxins, such as deoxynivalenol (DON), that could affect grain quality as well as human and animal health worldwide. Due to limited reliable biomarkers to identify and develop FHB-resistant cultivars in barley, we investigated the composition of phenolic compounds in ten barley cultivars under clean and FHB-infected conditions. We analyzed free and bound forms of phenolic compounds and identified differences among tested cultivars. Analysis of mycotoxin DON content showed that resistant cultivars produced less compared to susceptible cultivars. In addition, the resistant cultivars showed higher amounts of major phenolic compounds compared to the known susceptible cultivar. The results of this study suggest that phenolic compounds in barley could have a role as potential biomarkers to identify and develop FHB-resistant barley cultivars. ABSTRACT: Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is the fourth largest cereal crop in the world. One of the most devastating diseases in barley worldwide is Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe. Several mycotoxins are produced by FHB infection, and deoxynivalenol (DON) is one of them responsible for the deterioration of grain quality. The current limited number of reliable molecular markers makes the development of FHB-resistant cultivars rather difficult and laborious. Moreover, there is a limited number of designed specific biomarkers that could distinguish the FHB resistance and mycotoxin accumulation in barley cultivars. This study investigated the phenolic compounds of ten different Canadian barley cultivars, grown in artificially FHB-infected and non-infected field trials. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to assess the presence of DON in the harvested infected grains of each tested variety. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis was performed using both infected and non-infected samples. We identified differences among cultivars tested in non-infected samples through quantitative analysis of free and bound phenolic compounds. The resistant cultivars showed higher amounts of major bound phenolic compounds compared to the susceptible check CDC Bold. Additionally, the FHB-infected cultivars produced significantly higher amounts of sinapic acid (SIN) () and catechin (CAT) in the soluble free form of phenolics in barley compared to the non-infected subjects. This study suggests that phenolic compounds in barley could allow barley breeders to precisely identify and develop FHB-resistant barley germplasm and cultivars. |
