Despite the advancements in alternative methods of disease control, chemical substances are anticipated to remain a primary measure due their cost and effectiveness. Currently, Phytosanitary Information System Database Ministry Agriculture lists 17 registered fungicides specifically approved for controlling pathogenic fungi affecting olive trees Croatia. Fungicides containing copper sulfur most commonly used, along with formulations based on tebuconazole, prochloraz, trifloxystrobin. However, compounds found can often impact environment. An improper application result adverse effects food chain, leading accumulation residues from plant-protection agents posing risks human animal health. Therefore, agriculture, phytomedicine is appropriately regulated by laws comprehensively. This study delves into specific fungal diseases olives assesses associated hazards.

Spilocea oleagina is a dangerous obligate fungal pathogen of olive, feared in the Mediterranean countries, causing Peacock's eye or leaf spot infection, which can lead to serious yield loss approximately 20% higher depending on climatic conditions. Coping with this disease much more problematic for organic farms. To date, knowledge genetic control possible mechanisms resistance/low susceptibility quite limited. In work, comparative transcriptomic analysis (RNA-seq) was conducted tissues low susceptible cultivar Koroneiki and high Nocellara del Belice, both tested field using NaOH test, considering two stages-"zero sign disease" "evident infection". Cultivars showed very large number differentially expressed genes (DEGs) stages. 'Koroneiki' an extensive hormonal crosstalk, involving Abscisic acid (ABA) ethylene synergistically acting Jasmonate, early signaling remarkable defense responses against through over-expression many resistance gene analogs pathogenesis-related (PR) genes: non-specific lipid-transfer (nsLTPs), LRR receptor-like serine/threonine-protein kinase genes, GDSL esterase lipase, defensin Ec-AMP-D2-like, protein 6-like, Thaumatin-like gene, Mildew Locus O (MLO) glycine-rich (GRP), MADS-box STH-21-like, endochitinases, glucan endo-1,3-beta-glucosidases, finally, proteinases. Numerous involved cell wall biogenesis, remodeling, wall-based defense, including lignin synthesis, were also upregulated resistant cultivar, indicating role composition resistance. It that transcription factors (TS), some Induced Systemic Resistance (ISR), as well abiotic stress response, found be uniquely 'Koroneiki', while 'Nocellara Belice' lacking effective system expressing overlap wounding responses, and, minor extent, related phenylpropanoid terpenoid pathways.
