Table 2 Total protein concentration and enzymatic activities of peroxidase and chitinase from the shoot and root tissues of control and chitosan-treated plants

Plant tissue	Condition	Protein content (mg protein/g fresh weight)	Peroxidase activity (ΔOD/min·mg protein)	Chitinase activity (mmol GlcNAc released/g protein)
Shoot	Control	13.62 ± 1.26	0.51 ± 0.12	0.21 ± 0.02
Shoot	Chitosan	10.88 ± 2.96	0.66 ± 0.11	0.21 ± 0.04
Root	Control	2.72 ± 0.33	13.17 ± 0.80	0.51 ± 0.20
Root	Chitosan	1.27 ± 0.46	30.80 ± 8.06^‡	0.85 ± 0.11

Values express mean ± SEM from three biological replicates.
^‡0.05 < p-value < 0.10 (T-test), comparing between control and chitosan conditions
