Environmental factors influencing sporocarp formation in Typhula ishikariensis were studied under controlled conditions. Sporocarp formation in T. ishikariensis was divided into two stages: stipe elongation from the sclerotium and fertile head development at the tip of the stipe. Factors required for each stage differed. At the stipe elongation stage, low temperature (10°/5°C; day/night) and high humidity were important, but light was not required. In contrast, at the fertile head stage, light and moderate day length (8h/day) were essential. Fertile heads developed at 46µEm–2s–1; and high intensity (137µEm–2s–1) did not suppress development. Moreover, adding unsterilized soil to the sea sand medium accelerated sporocarp formation. These findings imply that the sclerotium of T. ishikariensis recognizes several physical factors for sporocarp formation. Sporocarps of T. ishikariensis developed within 4 weeks after incubation under optimal conditions. The sporocarp produced basidiospores, and differential mating incompatibility was confirmed among monokaryons derived from basidiospores produced under artificial conditions. This method should be useful for obtaining monokaryons for genetic studies of T. ishikariensis.  相似文献

Leptosphaeria maculans,a fungal pathogen of Brassica napus, secretes large amounts of a 28kDa protein (SP2) in liquid culture. This protein shows high sequence similarity to secreted serine proteases from other ascomycetes and is the major component of culture filtrate with protease activity, as analysed on casein zymogels. The sp2 gene is expressed during infection of B.napuscotyledons when L. maculans hyphae are growing between mesophyll cells, as well as at later stages when the fungus invades the vascular tissue.  相似文献

Fistupyrone (FP), a metabolite from Streptomyces sp. TP-A0569, inhibited the in vivo infection of Chinese cabbage seedlings by Alternaria brassicicola. To detect the possible action sites of FP, the effect of FP on the infection behavior of A. brassicicola and A. alternata was investigated. When spores of A. brassicicola were suspended in FP solution and inoculated on host leaves, FP at 0.1ppm significantly inhibited spore germination, appressorial formation, and infection hypha formation of A. brassicicola. Host-specific AB-toxin production and lesion formation by A. brassicicola spores were also reduced significantly by treatment with FP 1ppm. The effect of FP seemed to be irreversible because significant washing of FP-treated spores with distilled water (DW) did not change the inhibitory effects. In contrast, A. alternata isolates such as Japanese pear pathotype, apple pathotype, and saprophyte behaved almost equally in both FP- and DW-treated spores. Mycelial dry weight in potato dextrose broth and mycelial diameters on potato dextrose agar, gelatin glucose agar, and Czapek solution agar of both A. brassicicola and A. alternata were not different with or without addition of FP. These results indicate that FP at low concentrations has a fungicidal effect on spores of A. brassicicola but not on spores of A. alternata; FP also does not affect the vegetative phase of these fungi.  相似文献

Using a leaf disc method, 19 isolates of the poplar rust, Melampsora larici-populina , and one isolate of M.populnea from England were inoculated on to 25 poplar clones belonging to Populus nigra and P.trichocarpa, and hybrids between P. deltoides and P. nigra, P. deltoidesand P. trichocarpa, P.tacamahaca and P.trichocarpa, and P. alba and P. tremula. Disease was scored based on the pustule area and inoculum density. In terms of whether sporulating uredinia formed, the 19 isolates showed seven different patterns to the tested poplar clones. The majority of the rust isolates infected P. nigra P3090 and Vereecken, P.nigra×P. deltoides Casale and Tasman, P. tacamahaca×trichocarpa 36 and Balsam Spire, and P.trichocarpa Blom. Populus trichocarpa×P. deltoides 69039/4 was infected by only three isolates collected from southern England. No visible symptoms appeared on P. alba ×P. tremulaTower and P.trichcarpa×P. deltoides×P. deltoides76028/5 in inoculations with M. larici-populina isolates. Populus alba×P.tremula Tower was infected only by M. populnea. When M. larici-populina isolates were tested using AFLP, no differences were found either between isolates from different geographical regions or between those having narrow spectrum of virulence and those showing wide spectrum of virulence on the tested clones. The results suggest that the UK rust populations possess virulences which were found in races E1, E2, E3 and E4 in continental Europe and that rust having virulence patterns similar to race E4 has occurred in UK poplar plantations since 1996.  相似文献

Two primer sets were designed based on the sequence of polymorphic bands that were derived from repetitive sequence-based polymerase chain reaction (rep-PCR) fingerprinting and specifically detected in Ralstonia solanacearum race 4 strains (ginger, mioga, and curcuma isolates). One primer set (AKIF-AKIR) amplified a single band (165bp) from genomic DNA obtained from all mioga and curcuma and some ginger isolates; another set (21F-21R) amplified one band (125bp) from the other ginger isolates. These primer sets did not amplify the bands from genomic DNA of other R. solanacearum strains or of other related bacteria. PCR detection limit for the pathogen was 2 × 102cfu.The nucleotide sequence data reported are available in the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank databases under accession numbers AB118756 and AB118757  相似文献

Epidemiological studies were conducted in five cocoa growing districts in the Eastern Region of Ghana solely infected by Phytophthora palmivora and five districts in the Ashanti and Brong Ahafo Regions prevalently infected by Phytophthora megakarya to determine the natural incidence, the vertical distribution on trees and the probable sources of stem canker infections, and to isolate and identify the causal pathogens. The incidence of canker in the solely P. palmivora infected area was higher (between 0% and 16.0%) than in the area mainly infected with P. megakarya (0.5–8.0%). Differences were found in the natural height distribution of cankers in the two areas, whilst the areas solely infected with P. palmivora showed a near normal curve, those prevalently infected with P. megakarya were positively skewed. Most of the cankers caused by P. megakarya were found at the base or near the base of the tree trunks (1–40cm above ground level), while those of P. palmivora were concentrated between 41 and 100cm from the ground level. The majority (71.8%) of cankers in the solely P. palmivora infected area were cushion-borne, followed by 24.3% from unknown sources and only 3.9% from the soil. In contrast, a significantly large proportion (32.6%) of the cankers in the prevalently P. megakarya infected area were soil-borne, although cushion-borne cankers formed the majority (48.4%) due to the presence of P. palmivora infection whilst those of unknown sources constituted 19.0%. Phytophthora megakarya was frequently isolated from all the three sources of canker infections, indicating P. megakarya readily causes stem canker on cocoa. These results emphasise the importance of different reservoirs as sources of primary inoculum for diseases caused by the two Phytophthora species particularly pod rot infection on cocoa.  相似文献

Bacterial black spot disease of mango is caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. mangiferaeindicae (Xcm), which consists of two genotypically and phenotypically distinct groups of strains. Monoclonal antibodies (MABs) were produced – 15 against CFBP 1717, a group I strain, and 9 against CFBP 2919 (yellow-pigmented), a group II strain – and were analyzed for their characteristics. On the avidin-biotin peroxidase complex enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, the dilution limit of the MABs was between 100 and 200000 and was 10 times higher when measured on the corresponding ascitic fluid. All kinds of isotypes were represented among the MABs. All the Japanese Xcm strains, designated group I by hrp-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis, reacted equally with MAB 1A7H12G3, which is the most specific for all but one worldwide group I strains, and to only one strain among group II. Also, to various extents, serological heterogeneity inside the two groups was consistently differentiated based on isozyme and RFLP analyses. MAB 1E2E1 against CFBP2919, because of its narrow specificity, and MAB 1A7H12G3 against CFBP1717, because of its broad specificity, will be useful for epidemiological studies or general control of the pathogen.  相似文献

Virus interactions between Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) and Potato virus X (PVX) containing the nucleocapsid protein (N) gene sequences were examined to evaluate the capacity of the N gene sequences from TSWV to promote RNA-mediated cross-protection. Plants simultaneously inoculated with TSWV and PVX containing the 3 96bp of the N gene were highly resistant to TSWV infection, whereas no such resistance was observed in plants inoculated with TSWV and PVX containing the 5 96bp. These results suggest that the 3 portion of the N gene has a higher capacity for promoting RNA-mediated cross-protection of TSWV.  相似文献

The hyphal tip was isolated from 13 weakly or moderately virulent strains of Helicobasidium mompa to remove double-stranded (ds) RNAs and demonstrate their role as the hypovirulence factor. All of 829 hyphal tip subcultures retained dsRNAs. However, strain v670 containing two large fragments (10kb) and one small fragment (ca. 2.3kb) of dsRNA lost the largest fragment in 3 of 63 subcultures analyzed. One of the three subcultures (v670hti) was used to inoculate carrots to regain virulence compared to the parental strain v670. When isolate v670hti was paired with v670, the largest fragment was reintroduced to v670hti, and its virulence was diminished. Northern blot analysis with two probes hybridizing dsRNA fragments in most H. mompa strains revealed that the largest fragment involved in hypovirulence was different from two other fragments that are common in Japan. These results indicate that the largest dsRNA fragment in strain v670 is associated with hypovirulence in H. mompa.  相似文献

Rice leaves were inoculated with spores of Magnaporthe grisea, and the number of fluorescence-labeled spores that attached to the leaf surface were counted before and after leaves were dipped and then stirred in water. Just 5% of the spores were retained on the leaf surface 1h after inoculation; the percentage retained then increased rapidly between 1.25 and 1.50h, and most had attached by 2h. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that most conidia were lying on a few wart-like protuberances 2–4µm high. Spores became attached when the germ tubes were long enough to reach the leaf surface, at least 3µm, by mucilaginous substances at the tip. Retained spores swayed when water was added under the cover glass from one side, indicating that the attachment was confined to the tips of germ tubes. Spores are attached to the rough leaf surface by mucilaginous substances – not at the tip of spore as reported on smooth artificial substrates but at the tip of the germ tubes.  相似文献

The rapid immunofilter paper assay (RIPA) was developed to detect Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV), Groundnut ringspot virus (GRSV), and Tomato chlorotic spot virus (TCSV) using antisera against recombinant nucleocapsid (N) proteins of each tospovirus. The two-step RIPA was sensitive enough to detect each pecies specifically in only 30min. This technique is proposed as an excellent tool for routine Tospovirus diagnosis and field epidemiological studies.  相似文献

We recently reported that two diverse types (types 1 and 2) were identified among strains of Erwinia carotovora from mulberry trees. Type 1 strains were similar to E. carotovora subsp. carotovora (Ecc), whereas type 2 strains were distinct from Ecc and other E. carotovora strains. In this study, seven more mulberry strains of type 2 and reference strains were analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and randomly amplified of polymorphic DNA (RAPD). On the basis of SDS-PAGE profiles of whole-cell proteins, type 2 strains had high similarity with one another. In addition, they had an unique peptide band with a molecular mass of approximately 28kDa. RAPD analysis showed that they were also effectively differentiated by a strong, specific RAPD fragment for type 2 strains. Based on these two approaches, we have confirmed that the present type 2 strains from mulberry can be discriminated clearly from other soft rot Erwinia species.  相似文献

The infection processes of ascospores and pycnidiospores of Leptosphaeria maculans were studied on cotyledons of six cultivars of spring-type Brassica napus: one with resistance controlled by a single dominant gene (cv. Surpass 400), three with polygenic resistance (cvs. Dunkeld, Grouse, and Outback), and two susceptible cultivars (Westar and Q2). On all cultivars, ascospore germination, penetration, and development of symptoms on cotyledons were much earlier than that with pycnidiospores. At 2h after inoculation ascospores began to germinate, by 4h about 50% had germinated, and by 6–8h 85%–90% had germinated. In contrast, pycnidiospores began to germinate 1 day after inoculation (dai) and reached only 50% germination by 3 dai. Ascospores began germinating from terminal cells and then later from the interstitial cells. Pycnidiospores germinated predominantly from one end and sometimes from both ends. Germ tubes from ascospores penetrated stomata as early as 4h after inoculation, whereas those from pycnidiospores penetrated at 2 dai. Symptom development with ascospores was 2 days earlier than that with pycnidiospores. Symptoms on Surpass 400 were evident as early as 3–5 dai with ascospores and 5–7 dai with pycnidiospores. However, on other cultivars, symptoms were not evident until 10 dai with ascospores and 12 dai with pycnidiospores. This report is the first on differences in the infection processes by the two spore types. Ascospore and pycnidiospore attachment, germination, and penetration did not differ between resistant and susceptible cultivars, but there were major differences after penetration. Under high humidity, 80%–90% of stomata of susceptible Westar and Q2 had aerial hyphae emerging from stomatal pores. However, fewer stomata (5%–10%) had aerial hyphae on Surpass 400 by 10 dai with ascospores and 12 dai with pycnidiospores, but even these were usually poorly developed. Host differences in spring-type B. napus in relation to production of aerial hyphae have not previously been reported. In Surpass 400, rapid necrosis of guard cells occurred within a few hours of penetration by either type of spore, and subsequently one or a few cells immediately adjacent to the penetration site died. This necrosis then spread to the cells around the penetration site to form a hypersensitive response (in the form of a small, dark lesion) to both ascospores and pycnidiospores. This is the first detailed report on interactions between spring-type B. napus and L. maculans in relation to single dominant gene-based resistance. Neither the cultivars with polygenic resistance nor the susceptible cultivars had such a response.  相似文献

Solanum nigrum, black nightshade, is a wild non-tuber bearing hexaploid species with a high level of resistance to Phytophthora infestans (Colon et al. 1993), the causal agent of potato late blight, the most devastating disease in potato production. However, the genetic mode of resistance in S. nigrum is still poorly understood. In the present study, two S. nigrum accessions, 984750019 (N19) and #13, resistant (R) and susceptible (S), respectively, to three different isolates of P. infestans, were sexually crossed. The various kinds of progeny including F1, F2, F3, and backcross populations (BC1; F1 × S), as well as two populations produced by self-pollinating the R parent and S parent, were each screened for susceptibility to P. infestans isolate MP 324 using detached leaf assays. Fifty seedling plant individuals of the F1 progeny were each resistant to this specific isolate, similarly to the seedling plants resulting from self-pollination of the resistant R parent. Thirty seedling plants obtained from self-pollination of the S parent were susceptible. Among a total of 180 F2 plants, the segregation ratio between resistant and susceptible plants was approximately 3: 1. Among the 66 seedling plants of the BC1 progeny originating from crossing an F1 plant with the susceptible S parent, there were 26 susceptible and 40 resistant plants to P. infestans. The segregation patterns obtained indicated monogenic dominant inheritance of resistance to P. infestans isolate MP 324 in S. nigrum acc. 984750019. This gene, conferring resistance to P. infestans, may be useful for the transformation of potato cultivars susceptible to late blight.  相似文献

Erwinia ananas, the causal agent of bacterial palea browning of rice, was transformed with bioluminescence genes to clarify their behavior on rice plants. Transformant CTB009T2 was used to inoculate rice plants, and the subsequent bioluminescence of CTB009T2 was observed using a two-dimensional luminometer. Luminous spots frequently appeared on anthers after flowering and on dead tissues such as leaf tips, lower leaf sheaths, and leaf blades. In spikelets that developed the disease symptom on the palea, luminous spots appeared 48h after flowering on stigmas, basal parts of ovaries, and lodicules. These results indicate that postflowering anthers and dead tissues on rice plants are important sites for a rapid increase in the pathogen population, and that the multiplication of the pathogen on internal tissues of spikelets after flowering is associated with the appearance of browning.  相似文献

In this study, the Estonian population of Phytophthora infestans was characterized with mating type, sensitivity to metalaxyl, virulence on 11 potato R-gene differentials and 12 SSR markers to show the outcome of potential sexual reproduction in the population. During the three years 2010–2012, 141 P. infestans isolates, collected from 23 potato fields, showed quite a high and stable frequency of the A2 mating type, 48% of the total population. In 87% of all sampled potato fields, both mating types were recorded, suggesting continuous sexual reproduction of P. infestans and possible oospore production. Metalaxyl-sensitive isolates prevailed in all three years (68 out of 99 isolates). Amongst the 95 isolates tested, 51 virulence races were found. The race structure was diverse, and most pathotypes were unique, appearing only once; the two most common pathotypes, 1.2.3.4.6.7.10.11 and 1.2.3.4.7.10.11, comprised 35% of the population. The P. infestans population was genetically highly diverse and most of the multilocus genotypes (MLGs) appeared only once. Furthermore, all of the MLGs appeared in only one of the three sampling years. Our results confirm that the high diversity in the Estonian P. infestans population is most likely the result of frequent sexual reproduction, which benefits the survival, adaptability and diversity of the pathogen in the climate of North-Eastern Europe.  相似文献

The greater wax moth Galleria mellonella L. (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) is occasionally found in beehives and is a major pest of stored wax. Entomopathogenic fungi have recently received attention as possible biocontrol elements for certain insect pests. In this study, 90 isolates of Beauveria bassiana and 15 isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae were screened for proteases and lipases production. The results showed significant variations in the enzymatic action between the isolates. In the bioassay, the selected isolates evinced high virulence against the 4th instar of the G. mellonella larvae. The isolates BbaAUMC3076, BbaAUMC3263 and ManAUMC3085 realized 100% mortality at concentrations of 5.5 × 106 conidia ml−1, 5.86 × 105 conidia ml−1, and 4.8 × 106 conidia ml−1, respectively. Strong enzymatic activities in vitro did not necessarily indicate high virulence against the tested insect pest. The cuticle of the infected larvae became dark and black-spotted, indicating direct attack of fungus on the defense system of the insects. The LC50 values were 1.43 × 103, 1.04 × 105 and 5.06 × 104 for Bba3263AUMC, Bba3076AUMC and Man3085AUMC, respectively, and their slopes were determined by computerized probit analysis program as 0.738 ± 0.008, 0.635 ± 0.007 and 1.120 ± 0.024, respectively.  相似文献

Metarhizium guizhouense PSUM02 treated males of Bactrocera latifrons were investigated for the mating competition among males and mating choice by female flies to develop an auto-dissemination for the control of B. latifrons. In the present study, on day 1–4 of experiment, M. guizhouense–treated male flies were equally competitive with the normal male flies as we did not observe any differences in mating by treated and normal male flies of B. latifrons. Further, mating competitiveness were found low in treated adult male B. latifrons than normal male B. latifrons from 5th days of treatment until death. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis of treated male flies gave average survival times (AST) of 4.3?±?0.1 days, while the healthy female and male flies in the same cage showed AST of 9.3?±?0.3 and 8.3?±?0.4 days, respectively. The AST of untreated flies in control experiment ranged from 14.2–14.5 days. In mating preference experiment, M. guizhouense–treated male flies were chosen by virgin female than gravid female flies for mating. The treated male flies caused mortality in both virgin and gravid female flies in the same cage with AST of 4.4?±?0.1, 5.6?±?0.1 and 7.4?±?0.2 days, respectively, while untreated flies showed AST ranged from 13.9–14.3 days in control. The treated male flies could transmit the fungus infection to both untreated female and male flies as well as in virgin and gravid female flies by mating and contact. Our experiments showed the potentiality of M. guizhouense PSUM02 in management of B. latifrons by auto-dissemination with treated male flies, which transmit the fungus to a healthy population to reduce insect pest infestations.  相似文献

Tomato is challenged by several pathogens which cause loss of production. One such pathogen is the oomycete Phytophthora infestans which is able to attack all the aerial parts of the plant. Although a wide range of resistance sources are available, genetic control of this disease is not yet successful. Pyramiding R-genes through genetic transformation could be a straightforward way to produce tomato and potato lines carrying durable resistance to P. infestans. In this work the R1 potato gene was transferred into tomato lines. The tomato transgenic lines were analyzed by using q-RT-PCR and progeny segregation to determine the gene copy number. To test the hypothesis that R1 represents a specifically regulated R-gene, transgenic tomato plants were inoculated with P. infestans isolate 88133 and IPO. All the plants containing the R1 gene were resistant to the late blight isolate IPO-0 and susceptible to isolate 88133. These results provide evidence for specific activation of the R1 gene during pathogen challenge. Furthermore, evidence for enhancement of PR-1 gene expression during P. infestans resistance response was obtained.  相似文献
