Detection of Phytophthora nicotianae and P. citrophthora in Citrus Roots and Soils by Nested PCR

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used for the specific detection of Phytophthora nicotianae and P. citrophthora in citrus roots and soils. Primers were based on the nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed space regions (ITS1 and ITS2) of 16 different species of Phytophthora. Two primer pairs, Pn5B–Pn6 and Pc2B–Pc7, were designed specifically to amplify DNA from P. nicotianae and P. citrophthora, respectively. Another primer pair (Ph2–ITS4) was designed to amplify DNA from many Phytophthora species. All primer pairs were assessed for specificity and absence of cross-reactivity, using DNA from 118 isolates of Phytophthora and 82 of other common soil fungi. In conventional PCR, with a 10-fold dilution series of template DNA, the limit of detection was of 1pgl^–1 DNA for all the primer pairs (Ph2–ITS4, Pn5B–Pn6, and Pc2B–Pc7). In nested PCR, with primers Ph2–ITS4 in the first round, the detection limit was of 1fgl^–1 for both the primer sets (Pn5B–Pn6 and Pc2B–Pc7). Simple, inexpensive and rapid procedures for direct extraction of DNA from soil and roots were developed. The method yielded DNA of a purity and quality suitable for PCR within 2–3h. DNA extracted from soil and roots was amplified by nested PCR utilizing primers Ph2–ITS4 in the first round. In the second round the primer pairs Pn5B–Pn6 and Pc2B–Pc7 were utilized to detect P. nicotianae and P. citrophthora, respectively. Comparison between the molecular method and pathogen isolation by means of a selective medium did not show any significant differences in sensitivity.     

Efficacy and phytotoxicity of multiple petroleum oil sprays on sweet orange (Citrus sinensis (L.)) and pummelo (C. grandis (L.)) in Southern China

The efficacy of pest control of three different oil formulations in multiple low-concentration spray programmes on sweet orange and pummelo were compared with unsprayed and normal farmer-treatments over three years. Phytotoxicity of sprays was assessed in terms of fruit and leafdrop, fruityield and external fruitquality. Trees sprayed with any type of oil had lower pest numbers than unsprayed trees. On sweet orange, the heaviest oil was better than the normal farm practice at controlling chaff scale on fruit and red mite and whitefly on leaves. On pummelo it provided the best control of red mite on leaves. All three oils were as effective as the normal farm practice in control of rust mite on sweet orange fruit and leaves and red mite, rust mite and red scale on pummelo fruit. On sweet orange trees there was no evidence of phytotoxicity, and the external quality of fruit generally improved over time. On pummelo trees, oil sprays were unable to improve the external fruitquality. The number of pummelo per tree was reduced in three of the oil spray schedules in 1995 and one in 1996, but the total weight of fruit harvested per tree was unaffected.     

柑橘衰退病、裂皮病和碎叶病的多重RT-PCR检测方法研究

 本研究以广东省农业科学院果树研究所隔离网室内通过嫁接分别感染CTV、CEVd和CTLV的柑橘树皮为实验材料,建立了以oligo(dT)为反转录引物的RT-PCR检测体系,成功检测到在病毒RNA 3'末端带有ploy_(A)加尾的CTV和CTLV。实验过程中,发现不具有ploy_(A)加尾的环状类病毒CEVd,同样可以用oligo(dT)反转录的RT-PCR检测出来,通过测序分析,其同源性在96%以上,并发现在CEVd序列中有一个富含A的区段。在此基础上,进一步研究了同时检测CTV、CEVd和CTLV的多重RT-PCR检测体系,该方法能为这3种病害的检测简化步骤、节省时间、降低成本。     

炔螨特等3种杀螨剂对柑桔的药害试验和调查

分别于柑桔嫩梢期、幼果期和果实膨大期应用炔螨特、三唑锡和三磷锡3种杀螨剂进行药害试验，并在药后不同时期进行调查，结果证实3种杀螨剂均对春梢嫩叶有不同程度药害，20％三磷锡EC对锦橙叶片的药害最重，600倍液可造成部分叶片脱落。在果实上使用炔螨特浓度过高会造成“花果”现象，25％三唑锡可湿性粉剂1500—2000倍液对锦橙和温州蜜柑果实无药害，7月中旬施用三磷锡500倍对果实有药害，1000—2000倍比较安全。

Farm Management Effects on Rhizosphere Colonization by Native Populations of 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol-Producing Pseudomonas spp. and Their Contributions to Crop Health

ABSTRACT Analyses of multiple field experiments indicated that the incidence and relative abundance of root-colonizing phlD+ Pseudomonas spp. were influenced by crop rotation, tillage, organic amendments, and chemical seed treatments in subtle but reproducible ways. In no-till corn plots, 2-year rotations with soybean resulted in plants with approximately twofold fewer phlD+ pseudomonads per gram of root, but 3-year rotations with oat and hay led to population increases of the same magnitude. Interestingly, tillage inverted these observed effects of cropping sequence in two consecutive growing seasons, indicating a complex but reproducible interaction between rotation and tillage on the rhizosphere abundance of 2,4-diacetlyphloroglucinol (DAPG) producers. Amending conventionally managed sweet corn plots with dairy manure compost improved plant health and also increased the incidence of root colonization when compared with nonamended plots. Soil pH was negatively correlated to rhizosphere abundance of phlD+ pseudomonads in no-till and nonamended soils, with the exception of the continuous corn treatments. Chemical seed treatments intended to control fungal pathogens and insect pests on corn also led to more abundant populations of phlD in different tilled soils. However, increased root disease severity generally was associated with elevated levels of root colonization by phlD+ pseudomonads in no-till plots. Interestingly, within a cropping sequence treatment, correlations between the relative abundance of phlD and crop stand or yield were generally positive on corn, and the strength of those correlations was greater in plots experiencing more root disease pressure. In contrast, such correlations were generally negative in soybean, a difference that may be partially explained by difference in application of N fertilizers and soil pH. Our findings indicate that farming practices can alter the relative abundance and incidence of phlD+ pseudomonads in the rhizosphere and that practices that reduce root disease severity (i.e., rotation, tillage, and chemical seed treatment) are not universally linked to increased root colonization by DAPG-producers.
