Relevance. Oxidative reactions (based on peroxidase activity, POX and polyphenol oxidase, PPO; hydrogen peroxide content) that occur in response to infection or reinfection of the off-spring of infected plants depend on the type of host-virus interaction (sensitive, tolerant, stable) and the nature of the interaction with viral infection (primary infection, reinfection of second and third generations).Results. Reinfection with tomato aspermy virus (TАV) or tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) of the off-spring of third infected tomato generation caused a significant decrease in POX activity compared to successive generations of infected plants (G2) for Craigella (Tm-22/Tm- 22) and S. pimpinellifolium genotypes or an increase for Rufina and Craigella (Tm-1/Tm-1) ones. In genotypes containing resistance genes, Rufina and Craigella, no differences were observed in PPO of TMV primary infection and control, while significant differences were found in case of TAV (susceptibility). As a result of TMV infection, the sensitive (Elvira) and tolerant (S. pimpinellifolium) genotypes showed an increase in PPO values compared to the control. At the same time, in most genotypes primarily / secondarily infected with TAV or TMV, statistically significant differences were revealed in the activity of POX or PPO, as well as the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide in plant leaves, which indicates specific protective reactions of the genotypes.
