Movement of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vitians in the stems of lettuce and seed contamination

Xanthomonas campestris pv. vitians , the causal agent of bacterial leaf spot of lettuce (BLS), can be seedborne, but the mechanism by which the bacteria contaminates and/or infects lettuce seed is not known. In this study, the capacity of X. campestris pv. vitians to enter and translocate within the vascular system of lettuce plants was examined. The stems of 8- to 11-week-old lettuce plants were stab-inoculated, and movement of X. campestris pv. vitians was monitored at various intervals. At 4, 8, 12 and 16 h post-inoculation (hpi), X. campestris pv. vitians was recovered from 2 to 10 cm above (depending on stem length) and 2 cm below the inoculation site. Xanthomonas campestris pv. vitians was also recovered from surface-disinfested stem sections of spray-inoculated plants. Together, these results are consistent with X. campestris pv. vitians invading and moving systemically within the vascular system of lettuce plants. To investigate the mechanism of seed contamination, lettuce plants at the vegetative stage of growth were spray-inoculated with X. campestris pv. vitians and allowed to develop BLS. Seed collected from these plants had a 2% incidence of X. campestris pv. vitians external colonization, but no bacteria were recovered from within the seed.     

引起糖甜菜细菌性叶斑病的萎蔫短小杆菌新致病变种

 1995年在内蒙古临河市新发现了糖甜菜细菌性叶斑病,从病斑所分离的10个细菌菌株经柯赫氏法则验证,均确系该病的病原菌。采用形态观察、表型特征和生理生化特性测定、数值分析、血清学反应、细胞化学成分分析、DNA G+C mol%和DNA-DNA同源性测定进行了鉴定,并与植物病原棒形细菌15个标准菌株进行了比较。该病原菌为革兰氏阳性细菌,不规则短杆状,有一根鞭毛、亚极生或侧生,结合其生理生化特性、细胞化学成分和DNA G+C mol%和DNA-DNA同源性测定结果,认为应属于短小杆菌属(Curtobacterium)的萎蔫短小杆菌(Cur. flaccumfaciens),数值分析也支持这一结论。此外,据血清学反应结果及其对短小杆菌属的其它植物寄主的致病情况,认为该病原菌应是萎蔫短小杆菌种下的一个新的致病变种,定名为Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens pv. beticola pv. nov. Chen et al.,2000(萎蔫短小杆菌糖甜菜致病变种)。     

Biological control of cereal seed-borne diseases by seed bacterization with greenhouse-selected bacteria

About 400 bacterial strains, isolated from roots of wild and cultivated plants, were screened for effects against diseases caused by Drechslera teres and/or Microdochium nivale in greenhouse tests and against common bunt caused by Tilletia caries in field tests. Four of the strains showed good biocontrol activity <70% disease reduction) against D. teres and T. caries both in screenings and field tests. One Pseudomonas isolate, MA 342, strongly and reliably suppressed both D. teres and T. caries in the field, while effects against M. nivale were weaker. The effects could not be enhanced by varying pre-application or seed application procedures. This isolate could be stored as a suspension in a refrigerator, frozen or applied to seeds for at least one month without loosing its disease controlling ability.     

Identification and use of a wild plant with antimicrobial activity against Ralstonia solanacearum, the cause of bacterial wilt of potato

Fresh aerial tissue and roots of 14 wild plants in Okinawa prefecture were investigated for their antimicrobial activity against Ralstonia solanacearum , which causes bacterial wilt of potato. A 70% aqueous ethanol extract of fresh aerial tissue of Geranium carolinianum L. showed strong antimicrobial activity against R. solanacearum . This extract also showed antimicrobial activity against the pathogens causing common scab of potato and soil rot of sweet potato. The antimicrobial substance could be extracted with hot water, and was effective against R. solanacearum in soil. In the field test, a treatment combining incorporation of dried aerial tissue into the soil and solarization was highly effective for control of bacterial wilt of potato. These findings suggest that G. carolinianum L. could be used as a biological agent for the control of bacterial wilt of potato.

覆土细菌群落在双孢菇栽培过程中的动态变化

微生物尤其是细菌,是双孢菇Agaricus bisporus栽培覆土的重要组成部分,对双孢菇菌丝体和子实体的生长发育有深远影响。利用16S rDNA测序技术,快速、准确检测不同生长阶段的双孢菇覆土中细菌生态群落动态变化,探究其中变化规律。在所有阶段覆土样品中,变形菌门Proteobacteria占据绝对主导地位,占菌群组成的38.67%～47.93%;其次是拟杆菌门Bacteroidetes,占总丰度的18.13%～37.80%。主要细菌组成较为稳定,有金黄杆菌属Chryseobacterium、鞘氨醇单胞菌属Sphingomonas、黄杆菌属Flavobacterium、丛毛单胞菌属Comamonas、节杆菌属Arthrobacter等。总丰度占比最高的金黄杆菌属Chryseobacterium,在0 d覆土中丰度较低,覆土4 d时其丰度显著上升,8 d后呈下降趋势,并在培养结束前保持稳定。整个过程中,细菌属丰度变化分为3个阶段：0 d、4～17 d和17 d以后,4～17 d的苯基杆菌属Phenylobacterium丰度较高,而0 d 的unclassified_Rhizobiales丰度较高。所有细菌属中,苯基杆菌属Phenylobacterium对土壤微生物菌群关联影响最大。     

不同产地烤烟细菌群落组成与结构研究

为研究不同产地C2F等级烤烟表面细菌微生物的组成和结构,利用高通量测序技术测试了6个不同产地的C2F等级烤烟在醇化初期烟叶表面可培养细菌的组成和结构。结果表明：6个不同产地的烟叶样品表面分别检测到55、39、33、26、24和15个OTU,其中6个烟叶样品共同的OTU为6个。在属分类水平上,大部分烟叶表面可培养的优势细菌微生物是芽孢杆菌属（Bacillus）,部分烟叶表面活跃着肠杆菌属（Enterobacter）,伯克霍尔德菌属（Burkholderia）和罗尔斯通菌属（Ralstonia）。不同品种和产地的烤烟表面细菌结构具有明显差异,同一品种不同产地的烤烟表面细菌结构也存在明显差异。研究结果为利用细菌微生物醇化不同产区烟叶,提高烟叶品质、优化烟叶醇化流程提供理论依据。     

番茄青枯病抗性两个相关基因功能的初步鉴定

对抗性番茄材料‘Hawaii 7996’分别接种强致病力青枯菌（RsH）和中等致病力青枯菌（RsM）后,利用双向电泳技术找到了两个差异表达蛋白质--谷胱甘肽S转移酶L3和Remorin 1蛋白。在利用携带八氢番茄红素脱氢酶基因PDS的TRV重组病毒载体通过叶片浸润法证明VIGS体系可行后,进一步利用该技术沉默上述两个蛋白质的对应基因GST-L3和Rem-1,并用半定量RT-PCR检测沉默效果。结果表明,分别沉默GST-L3和Rem-1的番茄植株抗性减弱,在接种中等致病力青枯菌（RsM）后青枯病发病率和病情指数都明显高于对照植株,说明基因GST-L3和Rem-1与番茄对青枯病的抗性相关。

不同遗传背景籼稻白叶枯病抗性基因Xa21、Xa23品系的抗性评价

以含有水稻白叶枯病抗性基因Xa21和Xa23的材料为供体,以课题组选育不含Xa21或Xa23基因的材料为受体,通过杂交、复交等方法,并采用分子标记辅助选择（molecular marker-assisted selection,MAS）世代选择,将含有Xa21和Xa23基因的材料、含与不含Xa21或Xa23基因的姊妹系接种7种广泛使用的白叶枯病菌种生理小种,分析了这些材料白叶枯病的抗性。研究表明含有抗性基因Xa21的水稻材料抗性累计（HR、R、MR）所占比例依次为菌株HNA1-4、PXO86（84.62%）>YN24（82.14%）>GD1358（73.08）>PXO99（67.86%）>GDA2（63.33%）>FuJ（6.67%）,表明含Xa21基因材料对菌株FuJ所诱发的白叶枯病基本无抗病能力,但对于其他菌株,仍有36.67%~15.38%的材料易感病;含Xa23基因的材料在所有诱发菌株中抗性累计（HR、R、MR）均在76%以上,仍有23.02%~15.52%的材料对7种诱发菌株没有抗性。通过对菌斑长度变异系数大小的分析,表明含有Xa21或Xa23基因的材料对不同菌株抗病能力或对同一菌株的抗病能力不同材料有较大的变化。通过对诱发白叶枯病菌株间菌斑长度的相关性分析,表明含有Xa21的材料菌株GDA2或HNA1-4与对应的其他6菌株之间达到了显著或极显著正相关,含有Xa23基因的材料菌株YN24、GD1358、PXO86与对应的其他6种菌株间呈极显著正相关,含此2类基因材料抗性鉴定选取对应菌系可以提高选育效率。通过对姊妹系的分析表明,Xa21或Xa23基因的白叶枯病抗性与选育材料的背景有关。相关性分析表明,Xa21基因的材料抗性与亲本材料呈极显著正相关（R=0.5725^**）,Xa23基因材料抗性与亲本材料呈显著正相关（R=0.2212^*）。
