Combining nonpathogenic strains of Fusarium oxysporum with sodium chloride to suppress fusarium crown rot of asparagus in replanted fields

Nonpathogenic strains of Fusarium oxysporum (NPFO) were tested alone, and in combination with rock salt (NaCl), for their ability to suppress fusarium crown and root rot of asparagus in replanted fields. Five NPFO strains were first screened with and without NaCl in the glasshouse using autoclaved asparagus soil mixed with potting mix. Asparagus roots were treated with NPFO suspensions or water, then inoculated 1 week later with pathogenic F. oxysporum ; then after 1 week pots received 100 mL 1% NaCl or water. After 12 weeks the NPFO strain CS-20 increased root weight when compared with controls. Rock salt did not affect root growth. Root lesions were reduced relative to the control by all NPFO strains and by NaCl applications, but there were no interactions between NPFO and NaCl. The NPFO strains CS-20, CWB 314 and CWB 318 were compared with no treatment in two 4-year replanted field studies in Hamden, and Windsor, CT, USA. Crowns were treated with NPFO at planting, and NaCl was broadcast at 280 kg ha⁻¹, and at 560 kg ha⁻¹ in later years. CWB 318 reduced disease at both sites and increased marketable yield in Hamden. Treatment with NaCl increased yield by 29% over controls in Windsor, but did not increase yield in Hamden. Recovered root isolates of F. oxysporum categorized by heterokaryon tests revealed that, in the glasshouse, CS-20 colonized roots better than other strains, while CWB 318 was the only strain found on roots from field plots after 4 years. Applications of NaCl did not hinder the suppressive ability of the nonpathogenic strains. The perennial nature of asparagus may require that nonpathogenic strains possess superior survival traits along with biocontrol traits.     

Genetic diversity of Fusarium oxysporum and related species pathogenic on tomato in Algeria and other Mediterranean countries

In order to characterize the pathogen(s) responsible for the outbreak of fusarium diseases in Algeria, 48 Fusarium spp. isolates were collected from diseased tomato in Algeria and compared with 58 isolates of Fusarium oxysporum originating from seven other Mediterranean countries and 24 reference strains. Partial sequences of the translation elongation factor EF‐1α gene enabled identification of 27 isolates as F. oxysporum, 18 as F. commune and three as F. redolens among the Algerian isolates. Pathogenicity tests confirmed that all isolates were pathogenic on tomato, with disease incidence greater at 28°C than at 24°C. All isolates were characterized using intergenic spacer (IGS) DNA typing, vegetative compatibility group (VCG) and PCR detection of the SIX1 (secreted in xylem 1) gene specific to F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (FOL). No DNA polymorphisms were detected in the isolates of F. redolens or F. commune. In contrast, the 27 Algerian isolates of F. oxysporum were shown to comprise nine IGS types and 13 VCGs, including several potentially new VCGs. As none of the isolates was scored as SIX1+, the 27 isolates could be assigned to F. oxysporum f. sp. radicis‐lycopersici (FORL). Isolates from Tunisia were also highly diverse but genetically distinct from the Algerian isolates. Several Tunisian isolates were identified as FOL by a PCR that detected the presence of SIX1. The results show that isolates from European countries were less diverse than those from Tunisia. Given the difference between Algerian populations and populations in other Mediterranean countries, newly emergent pathogenic forms could have evolved from local non‐pathogenic populations in Algeria.     

Potential role for salicylic acid in induced resistance of asparagus roots to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. asparagi

Pre-inoculation of asparagus ( Asparagus officinalis ) roots with selected nonpathogenic isolates of Fusarium oxysporum (np Fo ) has previously been shown to induce systemic resistance against infection by F. oxysporum f.sp. asparagi ( Foa ) through activation of plant-defence mechanisms. To elucidate the putative np Fo -mediated defence pathways, the effect of salicylic acid (SA) was examined in a split-root system of asparagus where one half of the seedling root system was drenched with SA and the activation of defence responses was measured subsequently on the remaining roots. SA-treated plants exhibited enhanced systemic resistance, with a significant reduction in disease severity of the roots inoculated with Foa , compared with untreated plants. SA activated peroxidase and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, as well as lignification, upon Foa attack, in a manner similar to that observed with np Fo pretreatment. In addition, application of diphenyleneiodonium, an SA biosynthesis inhibitor, led to failure of np Fo to induce lignin deposition and systemic resistance. Treatment of fungal spores with SA did not affect germination and growth of either np Fo or Foa in in vitro antifungal assays. Production of SA at the site of np Fo infection may be involved in the induction of Foa resistance in asparagus roots.     

Fusarium commune associated with wilt and root rot disease in rice

Wilt and root rot disease in plants has been caused mainly by Fusarium species. Previous studies reported that members of the Fusarium oxysporum species complex (FOSC) were usually associated with this disease, but there has been no report of it being caused in rice by specific Fusarium species. However, in this study, Fusarium commune was identified and characterized as a causal agent of wilt and root rot disease of rice. Four Fusarium isolates (BD005R, BD014R, BD019R, and BD020R) were obtained from different parts (root, stem, and seeds) of diseased rice plants. In morphological studies, these isolates produced key characteristics of F. commune, such as long and slender monophialides, polyphialides, and abundant chlamydospores. In molecular studies, the isolates were identified as F. commune based on sequences of the translation elongation factor 1-α (TEF1) gene that had 99.7%–100% sequence identity with the reference strain F. commune NRRL 28058. The phylogenetic tree showed that all four isolates belonged to the F. commune clade. A mating type test determined that three isolates carried MAT1-2. Their teleomorph stage was still unknown. Pathogenicity assays showed that all the isolates produced wilt and root rot symptoms and the isolate BD019R was observed as the most virulent among the isolates. To our knowledge, this is the first report of F. commune causing wilt and root rot disease on rice.     

New Leaf Spot Disease of Cymbidium Species Caused by Fusarium subglutinans and Fusarium proliferatum

Fusarium species were consistently isolated from yellow, swollen spots with reddishbrown centers and small black spots on leaves of Cymbidium plants in the greenhouse. Fusarium subglutinans caused the yellow spots and Fusarium proliferatum caused either the yellow or the black spots. We propose the name “yellow spot” for the new disease. To denote differences in their pathogenicity to orchid plants, we designate the population causing yellow spot as race Y and that causing black spot as race B of F. proliferatum.

Pathogenic, Genetic and Molecular Characterisation of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lilii

Isolates of Fusarium oxysporum from lily were screened for pathogenicity, vegetative compatibility and DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms, and compared to reference isolates of F. oxysporum f.sp. gladioli and F. oxysporum f.sp. tulipae to justify the distinction of F. oxysporum f.sp. lilii. Twenty-four isolates from different locations in The Netherlands (18 isolates), Italy (4 isolates), Poland and the United States (1 isolate each) shared unique RFLP patterns with probes D4 and pFOM7, while hybridization did not occur with a third probe (F9). Except for a self-incompatible isolate, these 24 isolates all belonged to a single vegetative compatibility group (VCG 0190). Isolates belonging to VCG 0190 were highly pathogenic to lily, but not to gladiolus or tulip, except for a single nonpathogenic isolate. Six saprophytic isolates of F. oxysporum from lily were nonpathogenic or only slightly aggressive to lily, gladiolus and tulip, belonged to unique VCGs and had distinct RFLP patterns. Three pathogenic isolates previously considered to belong to F. oxysporum f.sp. lilii were identified as F. proliferatum var. minus; all three belonged to the same VCG and shared unique RFLP patterns. These three isolates were moderately pathogenic to lily and nonpathogenic to gladiolus and tulip. The reference isolates of F. oxysporum f.sp. tulipae were pathogenic to tulip, but not to lily and gladiolus; they shared a distinct RFLP pattern, different from those encountered among pathogenic and saprophytic isolates from lily, and formed a separate new VCG (VCG 0230). Reference isolates of F. oxysporum f.sp. gladioli belonging to VCG 0340 proved pathogenic to both gladiolus and lily, but not to tulip. These isolates, as well as isolates belonging to VCGs 0341, 0342 and 0343 of F. oxysporum f.sp. gladioli, had RFLP patterns different from those encountered among the isolates from lily or tulip. These findings identify F. oxysporum f.sp. lilii as a single clonal lineage, distinct from F. oxysporum f.sp. gladioli and f.sp. tulipae.     

Evaluation of propargyl bromide for control of barnyardgrass and Fusarium oxysporum in three soils

With the scheduled phasing out of methyl bromide, there is an urgent need for alternatives. We evaluated the efficacy of propargyl bromide as a potential replacement for methyl bromide for the control of barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli) and Fusarium oxysporum in an Arlington sandy loam, a Carsitas loamy sand and a Florida muck soil. Soil was mixed with barnyardgrass seeds or F oxysporum colonized on millet seeds, and treated with propargyl bromide at a range of concentrations. The mortality of the fungi and weed seeds was determined after 24 h of exposure at 30 degrees C. The concentrations required to inhibit 50% barnyard seed germination (LC50) were 2.8, 2.4 and 48.5 micrograms g-1 in the sandy loam, loamy sand and muck soil, respectively. In contrast, the LC50 values for F oxysporum were 11.2, 10.8 and 182.1 micrograms g-1 in the sandy loam, loamy sand and muck soil, respectively. The low efficacy of propargyl bromide in the muck soil was a result of the rapid degradation and high adsorption of the compound in the soil. The degradation half-life (t1/2) was only 7 h in the muck soil at an initial concentration of 6.8 micrograms g-1, compared to 60 and 67 h in the sandy loam and loamy sand, respectively. The adsorption coefficients (Kd) were 0.96, 0.87 and 5.6 cm3 g-1 in the sandy loam, loamy sand and muck soil, respectively. These results suggest that registration agencies should consider site-specific properties in recommending application rates for propargyl bromide.

3种瓜类枯萎病菌Fusarium oxysporum的分子检测

 Fusarium oxysporum is one of the most important phytopathogens and cause Fusarium wilt disease in cucumber, watermelon and melon, etc.In this study, a pair of species-specific primers Fc-1 and Fc-2 was synthesized based on differences in internal transcribed spacer sequences of Fusarium genus.With the primers, a specific 315 bp PCR product was amplified from five F.oxysporum isolates isolated from cucumber, watermelon and melon, infected cucumber and watermelon tissues, while no product was obtained from other fourteen fungi, healthy cucumber and watermelon tissues.The detection sensitivity is 100 fg for genomic DNA of F.oxysporum and 1 000 spores/g soil for the soil pathogens.In contrast, the nested PCR with two pairs of primers(ITS1/ITS4 and Fc-1/Fc-2) increased the sensitivity by 100-fold.In addition, one-step PCR could also detect F.oxysporum in symptomless cucumber root of 7 dpi(days post inoculation) and in infected cucumber and watermelon tissues at the early stage of disease development.Therefore, the developed PCR-based method enabled rapid, sensitive and reliable detection of F.oxysporum.It also provides the detection method for early monitoring and diagnosis of the pathogen as well as the plant disease management guidance.     

Back to the roots: Understanding banana below-ground interactions is crucial for effective management of Fusarium wilt

Global banana production is affected by Fusarium wilt, a devastating disease caused by the soilborne root-infecting fungus, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc). Fusarium wilt is notoriously difficult to manage because infection arises through complex below-ground interactions between Foc, the plant, and the soil microbiome in the root–soil interface, defined as the rhizosphere. Interactions in the rhizosphere play a pivotal role in processes associated with pathogen development and plant health. Modulation of these processes through manipulation and management of the banana rhizosphere provides an auspicious prospect for management of Fusarium wilt. Yet, a fundamental understanding of interactions in the banana rhizosphere is still lacking. The objective of this review is to discuss the state-of-the-art of the relatively scant data available on banana below-ground interactions in relation to Fusarium wilt and, as a result, to highlight key research gaps. Specifically, we seek to understand (a) the biology of Foc and its interaction with banana; (b) the ecology of Foc, including the role of root-exuded metabolites in rhizosphere interactions; and (c) soil management practices and how they modulate Fusarium wilt. A better understanding of molecular and ecological factors influencing banana below-ground interactions has implications for the development of targeted interventions in the management of Fusarium wilt through manipulation of the banana rhizosphere.     

Influence of chickpea genotype and Bacillus sp. on protection from Fusarium wilt by seed treatment with nonpathogenic Fusarium oxysporum

Seeds of kabuli chickpea cultivars ICCV 4 and PV 61 were treated with conidia of nonpathogenic Fusarium oxysporum isolate Fo 90105 suspended in methylcellulose (3 × 10⁶ conidia.seed^-1), or with methylcellulose alone, and sown in soil artificially infested with 500 or 1,000 chlamydospores.g^-1 of F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceris race 5. At an inoculum concentration of 500 chlamydospores.g^-1, seed treatment with Fo 90105 significantly increased the incubation period of the disease by 11 (ICCV 4) or 25 (PV 61) days, and reduced the final disease incidence, disease intensity and the standardized area under the curve of disease intensity over time. This protection from disease was higher and more consistent in PV 61 than in ICCV 4. However, it was annulled with an inoculum concentration of 1,000 chlamydospores.g^-1, except for the incubation period in PV 61 which was increased by 10 days. When ICCV 4 seeds were treated with Fo 90105 (3 × 10⁶ conidia.seed^-1) and/or Bacillus sp. isolate RGAF 51 (1 × 10⁷ cfu.seed^-1), then sown in infested soil, there was no influence by the Bacillus isolate on protection conferred by Fo 90105. However, the degree of protection by the nonpathogenic F. oxysporum was higher and more consistent when plants from treated seeds were grown in sterile sand for 6 days, then transplanted into infested soil.     

Variation in Pathogenicity Associated with the Genetic Diversity of Fusarium graminearum

We screened 188 isolates of Fusarium graminearum, which originated from northwest Europe, the USA and Nepal, for genetic diversity using a sequence-characterised amplified region polymorphism (SCAR). On the basis of this analysis, 42 of the 118 isolates were selected for random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Three groups were identified, two of which, A and B, contained the isolates from Nepal, and a third, group C, contained the isolates from Europe and the USA. In pathogenicity tests on wheat and maize seedlings, group C isolates were more pathogenic than the group A and B isolates. The isolates were assigned chemotypes based on their ability to produce the trichothecene mycotoxins nivalenol (NIV) and deoxynivalenol (DON). Isolates from group A were equally likely to produce NIV or DON while group B isolates produced predominantly NIV, and group C isolates produced predominantly DON. Within group A, isolates of the two chemotypes were equally pathogenic to wheat but isolates with the NIV chemotype were significantly more pathogenic to maize. The results confirm that distinct genetic groups exist within F. graminearum and demonstrate that these groups have different biological properties, especially with respect to their pathogenicity to two of the most economically important hosts of this pathogen.     

土壤施加氧化钙对西瓜枯萎病的影响及其机理初探

为探明土壤撒施石灰对西瓜枯萎病发生的影响,本试验设计5个浓度剂量的氧化钙对连作西瓜5年的土壤进行消毒处理,通过栽培感病品种并调查植株生长情况、枯萎病发病率等指标,结合土壤中尖孢镰刀菌西瓜专化型1号小种病原菌孢子量和土壤pH的变化动态,以此评估土壤施加石灰防治西瓜枯萎病的效果,并利用不同浓度的钙对尖孢镰刀菌西瓜专化型菌丝生长和产孢量的影响进行防治机理的初步研究。试验结果表明,当土壤施加氧化钙后,西瓜发病率显著降低,各处理的相对防效分别为14%、57.8%、96.3%、94.7%、94.7%。在定植10d后,各处理均有促进植株生长发育的作用,其中1.34g/kg最显著。而随着氧化钙施加量的增加,土壤pH值也不断提高,30d趋于稳定。对土壤病原菌孢子数量检测表明:各处理土壤中病原菌数量均呈现显著降低的趋势。PDA平板生测结果表明,当钙离子浓度高于80mmol/L时,病原菌的生长及产孢量开始受到抑制,随着浓度的增加,抑制作用加强。土壤施加氧化钙不仅能改善土壤的酸化,还能有效防控西瓜枯萎病,其机理可能是土壤pH值的提高改变了土壤微环境,不利于病原菌侵染;施加的钙离子抑制了病原菌菌丝的生长及孢子的萌发。研究结果对揭示氧化钙防控西瓜枯萎病机制,具有一定的参考价值。     

甜瓜枯萎病菌（Fusarium oxysporum）专化型的初步研究

Implication of Systemic Induced Resistance in the Suppression of Fusarium Wilt of Tomato by Pseudomonas fluorescens WCS417r and by Nonpathogenic Fusarium oxysporum Fo47

Fluorescent pseudomonads and nonpathogenic Fusarium oxysporum have been shown to suppress fusarium wilts. This suppression has been related to both microbial antagonism and induced resistance.The aim of the present study was to assess the relative importance of systemic induced resistance in the suppression of fusarium wilt of tomato in commercial-like conditions by a reference strain of each type of microorganism (P. fluorescens WCS417r and nonpathogenic F. oxysporum Fo47). The spatial separation of the pathogen and the biocontrol strains excluded any possible microbial antagonism and implicated the involvement of the systemic induced resistance; whereas the absence of any separation between these microorganisms allowed the expression of both mechanisms. Since systemic induced resistance has often been associated with the synthesis of PR-proteins, their accumulation in tomato plants inoculated with WCS417r or with Fo47 was determined.The analysis of the results indicates that the suppression of fusarium wilt by P. fluorescens WCS417r was ascribed to systemic induced resistance without any detection of the PR-proteins tested (PR-1 and chitinases). In contrast, the suppression achieved by nonpathogenic F. oxysporum Fo47 appeared to be mainly ascribed to microbial antagonism but also to a lesser extent to systemic induced resistance. This induced resistance could be related to the accumulation of PR-1 and chitinases.The possible relationship between the ability of Fo47 to suppress fusarium wilt more efficiently than WCS417r and its ability to show both mechanisms is discussed.     

棉花枯萎病菌新生理型菌株的分子鉴定

 Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. vasinfectum(Fov)已报道有8个生理小种和一个澳大利亚生理型,在我国只报道有3、7、8号小种。前期研究发现,我国还有一个与3、7、8号小种具有较大遗传差异的Fov新生理型。本研究通过对3、7、8号小种和新生理型菌株的翻译延伸因子(EF-1α)基因序列比对分析,发现该新生理型菌株具有特异性碱基序列。根据这些特异性碱基序列,设计了一对针对新生理型菌株的特异性引物,并证明该引物可以特异性检测Fov新生理型菌株。利用该引物对采自河北省主要植棉区的77株Fov菌株进行筛选,鉴定出2株潜在的新生理型菌株。从这2个Fov菌株中克隆出EF-1α和β-tubulin基因序列,通过构建系统发育树,证明这2个Fov菌株为新生理型菌株,而且与澳大利亚生理型菌株具有较近的亲缘关系。本研究建立的分子检测方法可用于棉花枯萎病菌新生理型菌株的鉴定。     

镰刀菌对大蒜根系分泌物的敏感性与其致病力相关分析

试验采用菌丝生长速率法测定了大蒜根系分泌物对3种供试植物病原镰刀菌的抑菌活性, 并进一步分析了18株从腐烂蒜瓣上分离的尖孢镰刀菌和12株从小麦赤霉病样分离的禾谷镰刀菌对大蒜根系分泌物的敏感性及致病力之间的关系。研究结果表明, 大蒜根系分泌物对供试镰刀菌均具有抑制活性, 但从腐烂蒜瓣上分离的尖孢镰刀菌对根系分泌物的敏感性低于其他菌株。致病力分析结果表明, 供试的18株尖孢镰刀菌均能使蒜瓣发病, 但致病力与其对根系分泌物的敏感性无明显相关性; 供试的禾谷镰刀菌中对根系分泌物不敏感的4株菌株能侵染蒜瓣, 但敏感性高的菌株不能侵染蒜瓣, 且根系分泌物对禾谷镰刀菌的抑制率与禾谷镰刀菌致病力之间呈显著的负相关。这表明大蒜根系分泌抑菌物质是根系抵御镰刀菌侵染的重要机制, 但一些菌株能对根系分泌物产生抗性, 从而侵染大蒜。综上所述, 大蒜根系分泌物对镰刀菌具有抑制活性, 可以利用大蒜和其他作物间作或轮作控制镰刀菌枯萎病的发生和蔓延, 但长期利用大蒜轮作或间作控制土传病害可能面临镰刀菌对大蒜根系分泌物产生抗性, 导致防效降低的风险。     

镰刀菌酸在尖孢镰刀菌侵染过程中的产生规律及运输过程探究

 镰刀菌酸(FSA)是尖孢镰刀菌产生的主要毒素之一,对病害的发展起到主导作用,但是其产生及运输机制尚不清楚,明确镰刀菌酸在寄主体内的产生过程及运输方式对防控作物枯萎病的发生具有重要的理论意义。本研究以黄瓜品种津春4号和尖孢镰刀菌黄瓜专化型菌 (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum) 为试材,进行温室营养液培养试验,对不同侵染时期植株体内的病原菌及镰刀菌酸进行定量分析,结合韧皮部烫伤及分根根盒装置,探究镰刀菌酸的运输及分配机制。结果表明,病原菌的侵染首先从根尖或者侧根原基侵入根系,随后侵入维管组织并局限在木质部导管中,快速大量繁殖并开始产生毒素镰刀菌酸,镰刀菌酸主要通过木质部运输到叶片,发病期(11 dpi)叶片中镰刀菌酸含量是根系中镰刀菌酸含量的10倍。病原菌主要借助镰刀菌酸加速植物萎蔫死亡,并且镰刀菌酸含量与病原菌数量的相关性关系呈显著正相关。本研究进一步明确了病原菌侵染与镰刀菌酸产生的关系,病原菌在根系定殖成功后快速繁殖进入潜育期,随后产生毒素镰刀菌酸,并通过木质部运往地上部,促进叶片萎蔫,加速病原菌进入腐生阶段。在实际生产中我们可以在病害发生前期,未产生大量镰刀菌酸之前加强田间管理,以抑制或减轻枯萎病的发生。
