在中国广东侵染胜红蓟的中国胜红蓟黄脉病毒的鉴定和全基因组分析

2022年9月在广东省罗定市发现了叶片表现为黄色网状症状的胜红蓟病株。为了明确胜红蓟叶片的黄脉症状是否由双生病毒感染引起, 本研究使用检测双生病毒的简并引物PA/PB进行PCR扩增, 获得约500 bp的片段。根据该序列设计特异性引物扩增并且克隆得到了病毒DNA-A的全基因组序列。通过BLAST比对发现, 获得的DNA-A与中国胜红蓟黄脉病毒(ageratum yellow vein China virus, AYVCNV)海南分离物(OQ421190)的DNA-A的相似性最高, 相似度为98.11%。系统进化树分析显示, 获得的病毒DNA-A与海南分离物(OQ421190)在同一分支, 说明具有较近的亲缘关系。以上研究结果表明侵染胜红蓟的病毒是AYVCNV的分离物。这是关于AYVCNV在广东地区侵染胜红蓟的首次报道, 可为当地病毒病的防控提供参考。     

长蒴母草黄脉病毒——一个双生病毒的新种

 从采集于海南儋州地区表现黄脉症状的长蒴母草(Lindernia anagallis)上分离到病毒分离物L2, DNA-A全序列分析结果表明, 全长2739个核苷酸(nt)(GenBank登录号:AY795900), 共编码6个ORF, 其中病毒链编码AV1(CP)、AV2, 互补链编码AC1、AC2、AC3、AC4。利用BLAST程序对DNA-A进行分析表明, 与L2 DNA-A有同源关系的病毒均为双生病毒科(Geminiviridae)菜豆金色黄花叶病毒属(Begomovirus)成员。进一步比较发现, L2 DNA-A与我国广东报道的广东番茄曲叶病毒(Tomato leaf curl Guangdong virus, ToLCGuV)(AY602165)全基因组核苷酸序列的同源性最近, 仅为77.0%, 说明L2为Begomovirus中的一个新种, 命名为长蒴母草黄脉病毒(Lindernia anagallis yellow vein virus, LAYVV)。与L2的IR区及各基因编码的氨基酸序列有最高同源性的病毒均来源于亚洲。利用DNA-B特异引物和DNA-β的特异引物, 均未检测到DNA-B和卫星DNA-β的存在。

四川米易赛葵上粉虱传双生病毒的分子鉴定及复合侵染检测

为了明确四川米易赛葵上的双生病毒种类及复合侵染情况,基于滚环扩增PCR（RCA-PCR）技术,利用双生病毒DNA-A、DNA-B及卫星DNA的通用引物对四川米易表现黄脉症状的12个赛葵样品进行了检测,并对其序列进行分析。双生病毒的检出率高达92%;共检出云南赛葵黄脉病毒（Malvastrum yellow vein Yunnan virus,MYVYNV）、赛葵黄脉病毒（Malvastrum yellow vein virus,MYVV）及中国番茄黄化曲叶病毒（Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus,TYLCCNV）等3种双生病毒,复合侵染率高达67%;11个阳性样品中共检测到两类卫星DNAβ分子,分别与MYVYNV伴随的DNAβ（MYVYNB-[Y160],98.4%～98.7%）和MYVV伴随的DNAβ（MYVB-[Y197],98.5%～98.7%）的序列相似性最高;未扩增到DNA-B及DNAα分子。表明病毒DNA-A与卫星DNAβ以病害复合体形式存在,且DNAβ可伴随异源辅助病毒。     

侵染一品红的一品红曲叶病毒山东分离物的全基因组克隆和序列分析

2012年,在山东青州花卉市场采集一品红样品,利用双生病毒通用引物PA/PB对样品进行扩增并测序。所得序列经NCBI BLAST比对,发现是一种新的双生病毒,为一品红曲叶病毒（Euphorbia leaf curl virus, ELCV）。随后对该分离物（ELCV-Shandong）进行全基因组序列扩增和测序（GenBank登录号：KC852148）,经分子比对和进化分析,发现其与广西报道的一品红曲叶病毒G35 (AJ558121) 的相似性最高为99%,同处于一个小分支,并且中国报道的所有一品红曲叶病毒分离物都处于一个分支内,从而进一步确定了山东青州一品红病毒分离物为一品红曲叶病毒。这是一品红曲叶病毒在北方地区发生的首次报道。     

中国番木瓜曲叶病毒南宁分离物的基因组结构特征

 从广西南宁田间表现曲叶症状的番木瓜植株上分离到病毒分离物G4,经三抗体夹心ELISA (TAS-ELISA)检测,G4与粉虱传双生病毒的抗体呈阳性反应。对G4 DNA-A全序列测定和分析表明,G4 DNA-A全长2 748个核苷酸,共编码6个ORFs。同源性比较及系统进化关系分析表明,G4 DNA-A与在亚洲发现的粉虱传双生病毒关系较近,其中与我国报道的中国番木瓜曲叶病毒(PaLCuCNV)同源性最高,达到98.0%。进一步比较发现,G4 DNA-A编码的AV1、AV2、AC1、AC2、AC3和AC4与PaLCuCNV相应ORFs的氨基酸同源性分别为98.4%、95.7%、97.5%、97.8%、94.1%和94.6%,表明G4应属于PaLCuCNV的一个分离物。G4编码的ORFs与中国胜红蓟黄脉病毒(AYVCNV)、辣椒曲叶病毒(PepLCV)及烟草曲茎病毒(TbCSV)有较高的氨基酸同源性,可能起源于共同的祖先。利用DNA-B及卫星DNAβ的保守引物均未能从G4分离物中扩增出相应的组分。     

江苏朱槿上分离到的木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒基因组结构特征分析

 2012年5月,江苏南京朱槿上出现一种新的病毒病害,病株表现明显的叶片上卷、叶脉肿大、叶背伴有耳突、植株矮缩等症状。根据其症状及介体发生状况,对其伴随的病毒种类进行研究,结果发现采集的46份典型症状样品体内均可以检测到粉虱传双生病毒,对其基因组DNA-A组分克隆测序后发现其全长2 736 bp,编码6个ORF,BLAST分析显示该病毒与木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒同源性最高(99.9%),是木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒的一个分离物。病样中同时还检测到伴随DNAβ卫星分子,测序结果显示该卫星全长1 346 bp,编码1个ORF,BLAST及聚类分析结果显示该β卫星与木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒β卫星同源性最高(99.7%),为木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒β卫星的一个分离物。这是木尔坦棉花曲叶病毒首次在长江流域的报道。     

从福建分离的广东赛葵曲叶病毒的分子特征

 从中国福建省表现曲叶和脉突症状的赛葵上分离到病毒分离物FJ1~FJ6。利用菜豆金色花叶病毒属病毒的特异性简并引物PA/PB,在所有6个分离物中都分离到了约500bp长度的病毒部分DNA片段。这些DNA片段与已报道的广东赛葵曲叶病毒(Malvastrum leaf curl Guangdong virus,MLCuGdV)的核苷酸序列同源性高达90%-93%。随机挑选FJ3分离物进行全基因组DNA的克隆测序。结果表明,FJ3 DNA全长2765个核苷酸,具有典型的双生病毒科病毒的基因组结构特征,与MLCuGdV的同源性为92.9%,表明FJ3是MLCuGdV的一个分离物。系统进化分析表明,除了MLCuGdV,FJ3与其它赛葵上分离到的双生病毒的亲缘关系都较远,而与分离自中国南方番木瓜上的双生病毒聚成簇,有较近的亲缘关系。进一步比较分析各蛋白编码的氨基酸序列发现,FJ3可能是一个种间重组分子,它可能是由中国番木瓜曲叶病毒或广东番木瓜曲叶病毒和另外的未知病毒重组产生的。     

Epidemiology and simulation of population development of Sitobion avenae in winter wheat

The epidemiology ofSitobion avenae and its natural enemies in winter wheat was studied in 1975, 1976 and 1977. Immigration was important until the end of flowering. The alate immigrants had apterous offspring. These became the driving force in population growth. Their offspring were mostly alatae which usually left the field. A model of the epidemic was developed. Quantitative relations between the aphids and their environment were obtained from literature or established in laboratory trials. The model simulated population development and population composition from the beginning of June till the population peak at the end of June or early in July. Because quantitative data on relations between aphids and their natural enemies and pathogens are scarce, and since the knowledge on wing formation is still limited, the population collapse could not be predicted. In the future, prognosis over a period of three weeks seems possible.Samenvatting De toenemende betekenis van graanbladluizen (vooralSitobion avenae) gepaard gaande met een sterke toename van het gebruik van insecticiden op granen maakte verbetering van de prognose over het schadelijk optreden wenselijk. Door gedetailleerde tellingen in het veld (Fig. 1–7) werden gegevens verkregen over het verloop van de epidemie en het optreden van natuurlijke vijanden in 1975, 1976 en 1977.Een immigratieperiode tot in de bloei kon worden vastgesteld. Daarna lijkt de aantrekkelijkheid van het gewas voor alate luizen te verminderen. De alate immigranten krijgen aptere nakomelingen. Deze vormen de stuwende kracht van de populatiegroei. De nakomelingen van apteren zijn merendeels alaat. Zij verlaten het gewas.Een model van de populatieontwikkeling gedurende de epidemie werd opgesteld. De relatiediagrammen Fig. 9 en 10 laten groei en ontwikkeling vanS. avenae en een predator (Syrphus corollae) zien. Kwantificering van de betrekkingen werd mogelijk door literatuurgegevens en laboratoriumexperimenten.Met het model kon de populatieontwikkeling vanS. avenae vanaf begin juni tot aan de populatiepiek in 1975, 1976 en 1977 vrij goed worden gesimuleerd (Fig. 12). Ook de populatieopbouw kon worden gesimuleerd (Fig. 14). De teruggang van de populatiedichtheid blijkt moeilijker te voorspellen door het ontbreken van gegevens over natuurlijke vijanden.Het lijkt waarschijnlijk dat in de toekomst met het model een prognose over de piek van de bladluispopulatie circa 3 weken tevoren mogelijk zal zijn.     

Tumours of Begonia and some other ornamentals,induced by Corynebacterium fascians

In 1975 many tumours were observed in plants ofBegonia Schwabenland grown in Aalsmeer. Submersion of the roots ofNicotiana megalosiphon seedlings in a homogenate of tumorous tissue, induced tumours after two weeks. Short periods of submergence yielded results similar to those obtained after longer periods. Tumour homogenates lost their infectivity after ten min at 50°C. Aphids transmitted the infectious agent.Treatment with propylene oxide did not inhibit infectivity completely. Filtration through a 450 nm filter removed the infectious agent.Tobacco tumor virus or a viroid could not be isolated. Cultures ofCorynebacterium fascians, isolated from tumours ofN. megalosiphon were highly infectious and induced tumours in healthyN. megalosiphon andBegonia. Tumorous tissue homogenates ofPelargonium zonale, Dahlia sp.,Gladiolus sp., andLilium sp. also caused tumours inN. megalosiphon, from whichC. fascians was isolated. It was not possible to produce tumours inN. megalosiphon with homogenates from roses with symptoms of bud proliferation.Samenvatting In 1975 werden vele tumoren waargenomen inBegonia Schwabenland op Aalsmeerse bedrijven (Fig. 1). De infectiositeit van tumorweefsel kon goed en snel worden vastgesteld door de wortels van zaailingen vanNicotiana megalosiphon in een homogenaat van tumorweefsel te dompelen. Tumoren ontstonden na twee weken, de eindbeoordeling geschiedde na een maand (Fig. 2). Ook verschillende andereNicotiana spp.,Melilotus officinalis (Fig. 3) enPisum odoratum (Fig. 4) werden aangetast.Bij de infectiositeitstoets gaven zeer korte dompeltijden even goede resultaten als langere (Tabel 1). Infectieus sap verloor zijn infectievermogen na 10 min verhitting bij 50°C. Bladluizen brachten de smetstof over. Propyleenoxide verminderde de infectiositeit wel, doch onderdrukte deze niet totaal. Bij filtratie door een 450 nm filter bleef het infectieuse agens op het filter achter. Het tumor-inducerende agens was ook aanwezig in die delen van planten met tumoren welke gezond leken en het ging voor een gering deel over met zaad (Tabel 2).Uit tumoren konden wij geen tabakstumorvirus of een viroïde isoleren. Culturen vanCorynebacterium fascians, geïsoleerd uit tumoren vanN. megalosiphon bleken zeer infectieus en veroorzaakten tumoren inN. megalosiphon enBegonia. Homogenaten van tumorweefsel vanPelargonium zonale, dahlia (Fig. 5), gladiool (Fig. 6) enLilium Mid Century Hybrid Enchantment (Fig. 7) veroorzaakten ook tumoren opN. megalosiphon, waaruitC. fascians werd geïsoleerd. Met sap van kroeskopzieke rozen konden wijN. megalosiphon niet besmetten.     

Nematicidal Activity of Chrysanthemum coronarium

Organic amendments and green manure are potential alternatives to the harmful chemical control means currently used against plant-parasitic nematodes. In this work, Chrysanthemum coronarium was applied to the soil as a green manure to control the root-knot nematodes Meloidogyne incognita and M. javanica. Chrysanthemum coronarium significantly reduced nematode infection of tomato roots and improved plant-top fresh weight, both in the greenhouse and in microplots. Other green manures, derived from Anthemis pseudocotula, wild chickpea (Cicer pinnatifidum), Geranium spp. and wheat, were not as effective as C. coronarium. Chrysanthemum coronarium, retained its nematicidal activity even when applied as a dried material. Only mature C. coronarium plants, in their flowering stage, exhibited nematode control activity, but the green plant parts were more effective than the flowers. An aqueous extract of C. coronarium exhibited in vitro, nematostatic activity towards M. incognita and M. javanica second-stage juveniles and inhibited their hatching from eggs and egg-masses; its nematostatic activity was expressed also against other phytonematode species such as Heterodera avenae and Pratylenchus mediterraneus, but did not affect the beneficial entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema feltiae.     

Inactivation of soil-borne plant pathogens during small-scale composting of crop residues

Samples of heavily infested crop residues were incorporated in static compost heaps (2.5–4.6 m³) of the Indore type. Temperature increased to 50–70°C within 6 days depending on the type of crop residues used and the location within the heap. The heat phase (>40 °C) lasted 2–3 weeks and was followed by a c. 5-months maturation phase (<40 °c).=" among=" the=" 17=" pathogens=" tested,=">Olpidium brassicae and one of the four formae speciales ofFusarium oxysporum that were tested survived composting, but also their inoculum was greatly reduced.Survival during specific phases of composting was studied by incorporation and retrieval of samples at various stages of the process.F. oxysporum f. sp.melonis was completely inactivated andO. brassicae andPlasmodiophora brassicae were almost completely inactivated during the short heat phase. The three pathogens survived the long-lasting maturation phase without loss of viability. Heat evolved during composting was found to be the most important factor involved with sanitation of crop residues. The possible involvement of fungitoxic conversion products and microbial antagonism is discussed.     

Effects of the saprophytic leaf mycoflora on growth and productivity of winter wheat

The effects of the saprophytic mycoflora and its interference with cereal aphids on growth and yield of winter and spring wheat was studied in field experiments in 1980, 1981 and 1982.Yields varied between 5000 and 8000 kg dry matter of kernels per ha. The effect of the saprophytic mycoflora on yield was determined in different treatments: A) no control measures against cereal aphids and saprophytic and necrotrophic fungi, B) no control of cereal aphids, control of saprophytic and necrotrophic fungi, C) control of cereal aphids and control of saprophytic and necrotrophic fungi, D) control of cereal aphids and stimulation of saprophytic mycoflora and E) control of cereal aphids, no control of saprophytic and necrotrophic fungi nor stimulation of saprophytic mycoflora.Considerable differences in top densities of saprophytic mycoflora (10 times as large in A and D as in B and C) were determined. The consequences of these differences for the growth and productivity of wheat were minor. A negative effect of saprophytic mycoflora on the yield could not be detected in 1981 and 1982, whereas a small positive significant effect was found in 1980. This stimulation may have been due to competition between necrotrophic fungal pathogens and saprophytic mycoflora. As a result of favourable weather conditions necrotrophic fungal pathogens were very numerous in 1980 and could form an important yield reducing factor. Yield levels may effect the importance of the necrotrophic and saprophytic mycoflora as yield reducing factors. Additionally, in the presence of aphid honeydew captafol was found to be relatively ineffective against saprophytic fungi.     

浅黄恩蚜小蜂和丽蚜小蜂对温室白粉虱的寄生潜能分析

浅黄恩蚜小蜂Encarsia sophia GiraultDodd和丽蚜小蜂Encarsia formosa Gahan是防治粉虱类害虫的优势寄生蜂,通过生命表技术方法分析了2种寄生蜂对温室白粉虱Trialeurodes vaporariorum(Westwood)的防治潜能。结果表明,丽蚜小蜂在羽化第3天和第10天出现2次寄生高峰,占其总寄生量的13.7%和8.0%,在2次高峰之间逐日寄生粉虱数量比较平稳,单雌逐日平均产雌数保持在10.6~13.4头,10 d后寄生量呈明显的下降趋势;而浅黄恩蚜小蜂羽化10 d内逐日寄生粉虱量变化不大,单雌逐日产雌数稳定在4.2~5.4头,羽化14 d后寄生量呈明显下降趋势。丽蚜小蜂和浅黄恩蚜小蜂的R0、T、rm、λ值分别为171.5、18.0、0.2854、1.3303和61.6、16.2、0.2544、1.2897;粉虱若虫充足时,丽蚜小蜂平均单雌寄生若虫数是浅黄恩蚜小蜂的2.7倍,而后者平均单雌取食若虫数为60.6头,明显高于前者42.7头,总的来看,丽蚜小蜂通过寄生和取食杀死粉虱总量220.8头,明显高于浅黄恩蚜小蜂的127.9头。表明在应用寄生蜂防治温室白粉虱时,单独释放丽蚜小蜂比浅黄恩蚜小蜂显示出更好的防治潜能。     

Aetiology and causal agents of mango sudden decline disease in the Sultanate of Oman

Mango sudden decline is a recently introduced, economically serious disease in Oman. Affected mango trees have wilting symptoms that usually begin on one side and later spread to involve the entire tree. Trees exude amber-coloured gum from the bark of their trunks or branches and vascular tissues are discoloured. Having entered Oman in the recent past, survey data is presented that shows the disease to have spread throughout the northern part of the country. Evidence is presented that the vascular wilt pathogen Ceratocystis fimbriata causes mango sudden decline disease in Oman, possibly in concert with Lasiodiplodia theobromae and the recently described Ceratocystis omanensis. Isolates of these fungi from affected trees, cause infection and can be recovered from inoculated seedlings. Bark beetles (Hypocryphalus mangiferae) are shown to carry C. fimbriata and L. theobromae and are presumably responsible for transmitting both pathogens to healthy mango trees. Acting as a wounding agent and vector, the bark beetle is likely to have assisted the rapid spread of the disease across Oman.     

Identification and pathogenicity of Pythium species causing damping-off of kidney bean

Five Pythium species (Pythium irregulare, P. mamillatum, P. myriotylum, P. spinosum and P. ultimum var. ultimum) were isolated from the hypocotyls and roots of kidney bean plants with damping-off from a commercial field and from experimental plots that have undergone either continuous cropping with kidney bean or rotational cropping with arable crops. In inoculation tests, all five Pythium species were pathogenic to kidney bean. This is the first report of damping-off of kidney bean caused by Pythium species; we named this disease damping-off of kidney bean. The nucleotide sequence data reported are available in the DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank databases under accession numbers AB291811, AB291944 and AB291945.     

Pathogenic fungi involved in root rot of peas in the Netherlands and their physiological specialization

Research on root rot pathogens of peas in the Netherlands has confirmed the prevalence ofFusarium solani, F. oxysporum, Pythium spp.,Mycosphaerella pinodes andPhoma medicaginis var.pinodella. Aphanomyces euteiches andThielaviopsis basicola were identified for the first time as pea pathogens in the Netherlands. Other pathogens such asRhizoctonia solani andCylindrocarpon destructans were also found on diseased parts of roots. F. solani existed in different degrees of pathogenicity, and was sometimes highly specific to pea, dwarf bean of field bean, depending on the cropping history of the field.A. euteiches was specific to peas, whereasT. basicola showed some degree of physiological specialization.     

Relationship Between Production of the Phytotoxin Prehelminthosporol and Virulence in Isolates of the Plant Pathogenic Fungus Bipolaris sorokiniana

A gas chromatographic method was developed to quantify the phytotoxin prehelminthosporol, which is a sesquiterpene metabolite of the plant pathogen Bipolaris sorokiniana. The toxin was extracted from mycelium or culture filtrates, pre-cleaned using solid phase extraction, and analyzed by gas chromatography as a trimethylsilyl-derivative. The detection limit of the method was 5ngl^–1 (signal to noise ratio 4:1) which corresponds to ca. 15ng prehelminthosporol per mg dry weight of mycelium or 15ng prehelminthosporol per ml culture filtrate. The total amount of prehelminthosporol (mycelium plus culture filtrate) increased with cultivation time when examined in six isolates of B. sorokiniana after 6, 9, 12 and 15 days of incubation. The screening experiment of 17 isolates for prehelminthosporol production after 8 days of incubation revealed significant differences in the toxin production between the isolates. The isolates with low toxin production had lower virulence towards barley roots compared to those with higher production of the toxin. However, the virulence did not increase with prehelminthosporol level among the high producing isolates. Prehelminthosporol was also analyzed in a number of related Bipolaris and Drechslera species. In addition to B. sorokiniana, three out of six Bipolaris species (B. setariae, B. zeicola, B. victoriae) produced prehelminthosporol, which indicates that ability to produce prehelminthosporol is conserved among closely-related Bipolaris species.
