Detection of activity of POD enzyme at wheat seedlings by polyacrylamide electrophoresis (Native-PAGE) confirmed last result, electrophoresis showed that the density and intensity of the peroxidase bands gradually increased in samples treated with harbin and reached the highest effectiveness (the highest density and intensity of the resulting band) at 72 hours post-treatment with Harpin, then the band density decreased slightly at 72 hours post-treatment with Harpin. Also at this study, we conducted gene expression of <em>GPX<\/em> (one of the genes responsible for peroxidase enzyme), and gene expression of Ta\u03b2-<em>actin<\/em> gene (housekeeping gene as internal control) on agarose gel. The results showed stability in gene expression by the time for both genes, whether in wheat seedlings treated with water or seedlings treated with Harbin, i.e. there was&#8217;nt any effect of treating wheat with harbin protein on the <em>GPX<\/em> gene expression, which indicates that the effectiveness of Harbin protein in stimulating activity of peroxidase enzyme didn&#8217;t match with gene expression of <em>GPX<\/em>, maybe there are other genes play a role in increasing its activity. This study showed the possibility of of treating wheat with Harbin protein which produced locally to increase its immunity and resistance to various pests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\"><strong>Key words: <\/strong>Wheat, harbin protein, peroxidase enzyme.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-family: 'times new roman', times, serif;\">Full Paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/v12n2p28.pdf\">pdf<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ismaeel alsaleh*(1), Abu-ghorrah Mahmoud(1) and Aroub Almasri(2) (1).
