description | Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is a systemic virus that poses a serious threat to crops worldwide. In the present study, a series of novel 1-phenyl-4-(1,3,4-thiadiazole-5-thioether)-1<i>H</i>-pyrazole-5-amine derivatives was designed and synthesized. In vivo antiviral bioassay results indicated that some of these compounds exhibited excellent protective activity against TMV. Among the compounds, <b>E<sub>2</sub></b> (EC<sub>50</sub> = 203.5 μg/mL) was superior to the commercial agent ningnanmycin (EC<sub>50</sub> = 261.4 μg/mL). Observation of tobacco leaves infected with TMV-GFP revealed that <b>E<sub>2</sub></b> could effectively inhibit the spread of TMV in the host. Further plant tissue morphological observation indicated that <b>E<sub>2</sub></b> could induce the tight arrangement and alignment of the spongy mesophyll and palisade cells while causing stomatal closure to form a defensive barrier to prevent viral infection in the leaves. In addition, the chlorophyll content of tobacco leaves was significantly increased after treatment with <b>E<sub>2</sub></b>, and the net photosynthesis (<i>Pn</i>) value was also increased, which demonstrated that the active compound could improve the photosynthetic efficiency of TMV-infected tobacco leaves by maintaining stable chlorophyll content in the leaves, thereby protecting host plants from viral infection. The results of MDA and H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> content determination revealed that <b>E<sub>2</sub></b> could effectively reduce the content of peroxides in the infected plants, reducing the damage to the plants caused by oxidation. This work provides an important support for the research and development of antiviral agents in crop protection. |
