异硫氰酸甲酯对小麦网腥黑穗病菌杀灭效果研究

在20℃和60%温湿度条件下,分别测定了氧硫化碳、异硫氰酸甲酯(Methyl isothiocyanate,MITC)等7种新型熏蒸剂对小麦网腥黑穗病菌(Tilletia caries(DC.)Tul.,TCT)的熏蒸效果。结果表明,除MITC外,其他6种熏蒸剂均不能完全杀灭TCT病菌;MITC熏蒸120h可有效杀灭TCT病菌,其LD90、LD95、LD99、LD99.9963分别为15.438、17.046、20.530、32.414g/m3。但是,由于小麦对MITC的高吸附性导致熏蒸剂空间浓度过低,使得有载物熏蒸试验中投药50、100g/m3MITC均未能有效杀灭小麦中的TCT病菌。残留检测结果表明,散气16d后小麦中MITC残留量分别降至0.29、1.07mg/kg,残留较高。结论:MITC对TCT有很好的杀灭效果,但由于小麦对MITC的吸附性很强,需进一步研究熏蒸方式,方可实际应用。

A multiplex real-time PCR assay enables simultaneous rapid detection and quantification of bacteria associated with acute oak decline

Acute oak decline (AOD) is a syndrome affecting mature oak trees and is characterized by stem bleeds from vertical fissures on trunks, and inner bark necrosis caused by a polybacterial consortium, in which Gibbsiella quercinecans and Brenneria goodwinii, and to a lesser extent Rahnella victoriana and Lonsdalea britannica, play key roles. Here we report a novel multiplex real-time PCR assay that enables simultaneous and rapid detection and quantification of these four bacterial species from stem bleed swabs. Experiments with axenic cultures were performed to determine specificity and sensitivity of the multiplex quantitative PCR (qPCR). Whilst the primer/probe set for B. goodwinii was species-specific, primer/probe sets for the other three species were able to identify other members of their respective genera. There was no cross detection of genera within the multiplex qPCR, and non-target bacteria were not detected. The multiplex AOD assay had differential sensitivity for each bacterial species. The assay was evaluated on swab samples collected from stem bleeds of declining oak trees at a site in south-east England and was able to detect all four bacterial species. Absolute quantification of the bacteria from swab samples was possible through the inclusion of a standard curve prepared from dilutions of gene copy standards. This diagnostic tool will facilitate rapid detection of AOD-associated bacteria from samples that can easily be taken by non-specialists without specific training, and will also find application in other experimental work such as pathogenicity and control trials.     

Real-time quantitative PCR assays for quantification of L1781 ACCase inhibitor resistance allele in leaf and seed pools of Lolium populations

The I1781L amino acid substitution in the target ACCase enzyme causes broad resistance to ACCase inhibitor herbicides in several monocotyledenous weeds of agronomic importance. This mutation results from a substitution of an adenine (A) residue by either a thymine (T) or cytosine (C) at position 5341 in Alopecurus myosuroides Huds and at an equivalent position in Lolium species, Avena fatua L. and Setaria viridis (L.) Beauv. Two different procedures, the PCR-based allele-specific assay (ASA) and the derived cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (dCAPS) method, have previously been described for detecting this mutation. These methods are, however, only amenable to low sample throughput and are used in the analysis of single plants. Here, an alternative high-throughput ARMS/Scorpion real-time quantitative PCR (Q-PCR) method for measuring levels of the I1781L mutation in pools of leaf and seed samples of Lolium populations is presented. The limit of detection for C and T mutant alleles in a background of wild-type A is 0.02 and 0.0003% respectively. In this study, DNA from batches of 24 leaf segments measuring 0.5 cm from different plants or 1000 seeds could be conveniently extracted and accurately analysed. As part of assay validation, the comparative analysis of five geographically distinct Lolium populations with dCAPS and Q-PCR procedures demonstrated the accuracy of the latter method, and the three possible II1781, IL1781 and LL1781 ACCase genotypes being distributed as predicted by the Hardy-Weinberg principle. Given the dominance of the L1781 over the I1781 allele at recommended field rates for most ACCase inhibitors, the frequency of herbicide survivors in the field owing only to the presence of the I1781L mutation is thus predicted to be 2pq + q(2), where p and q are the frequencies of the I1781 and L1781 alleles as determined by Q-PCR. The Q-PCR assay established allows detection of very low levels of the L1781 ACCase mutation before resistance would normally be discernible in the field. Therefore, it offers the opportunity to tackle resistance at its very onset, potentially avoiding implementation of complicated and often costly weed management practices.     

Development of a PCR-based diagnostic tool specific to wheat dwarf bunt,caused by <Emphasis Type="Italic">Tilletia controversa</Emphasis>

Wheat dwarf bunt, one of the important international quarantine diseases, is caused by Tilletia controversa. Tilletia caries is a close relative species of T. controversa and the teliospore morphology and genomic structure of T. caries are very similar to those of T. controversa. In order to distinguish between them, a random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primer-mediated asymmetric-PCR (RM-PCR) was developed to screen differential sequences between the two pathogens. By RM-PCR, a 1,322 bp DNA fragment (PR32) was selected from 18 T. controversa and 29 T. caries strains. The PR32 genes were specific for T. controversa and almost had no homology to T. caries or other fungi in the present database. With primers designed from PR32, all 18 T. controversa strains were amplified, but no bands appeared in 29 T. caries strains by classical PCR. To identify T. controversa rapidly and accurately, SYBR Green I and TaqMan probe real-time PCR were established based on PR32. With TaqMan Real-Time PCR, different T. controversa strains and T. caries strains were detected. The results showed that all T. controversa strains were amplified with Ct from 19–29 and amplified curves were obtained. In contrast, the amplification of all T. caries strains did not show any signals, without Ct and amplified curves. Moreover, the developed TaqMan real-time PCR was used to detect T. controversa from asymptomatic wheat tissues successfully.

A real-time PCR assay for detection and quantification of Verticillium dahliae in spinach seed

Verticillium dahliae is a soilborne fungus that causes Verticillium wilt on multiple crops in central coastal California. Although spinach crops grown in this region for fresh and processing commercial production do not display Verticillium wilt symptoms, spinach seeds produced in the United States or Europe are commonly infected with V. dahliae. Planting of the infected seed increases the soil inoculum density and may introduce exotic strains that contribute to Verticillium wilt epidemics on lettuce and other crops grown in rotation with spinach. A sensitive, rapid, and reliable method for quantification of V. dahliae in spinach seed may help identify highly infected lots, curtail their planting, and minimize the spread of exotic strains via spinach seed. In this study, a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay was optimized and employed for detection and quantification of V. dahliae in spinach germplasm and 15 commercial spinach seed lots. The assay used a previously reported V. dahliae-specific primer pair (VertBt-F and VertBt-R) and an analytical mill for grinding tough spinach seed for DNA extraction. The assay enabled reliable quantification of V. dahliae in spinach seed, with a sensitivity limit of ≈1 infected seed per 100 (1.3% infection in a seed lot). The quantification was highly reproducible between replicate samples of a seed lot and in different real-time PCR instruments. When tested on commercial seed lots, a pathogen DNA content corresponding to a quantification cycle value of ≥31 corresponded with a percent seed infection of ≤1.3%. The assay is useful in qualitatively assessing seed lots for V. dahliae infection levels, and the results of the assay can be helpful to guide decisions on whether to apply seed treatments.     

Rapid-cycle PCR detection of Pyrenophora graminea from barley seed

Sixty RAPD primers were used to screen for a diagnostic marker that could be used to identify Pyrenophora graminea , a fungal seedborne pathogen that causes leaf stripe on barley. Primer pairs were designed to differentiate P. graminea from other Pyrenophora spp. using a sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) approach. A pair of P. graminea -specific primers (PG2 F/R) was obtained that amplified a single fragment from 37 isolates of P. graminea tested, but not from 29 isolates of other Pyrenophora spp. or 12 saprophytes isolated from barley seed. Rapid PCR detection was achieved using a LightCycler, in which the emission of fluorescence from the binding of SYBR Green I dye to the PCR products is measured. The P. graminea -specific product resulting from amplification with PG2 F/R can be distinguished from any nonspecific products by post-PCR melting point analysis. The PCR assay involves 40 amplification cycles of PCR, and the total PCR test including melting point analysis takes 25 min to complete. The rapidity of this test, combined with the closed 'in-tube' detection of PCR products, which reduces the potential for contamination, offers significant advantages compared with conventional laboratory and PCR analyses.
