Inhibitory activities of venom alkaloids of Red Imported Fire Ant against Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis in vitro and the application of piperidine alkaloids to manage symptom development of bacterial canker on tomato in the greenhouse

Tomato bacterial canker caused by Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (CMM) is a highly destructive disease that has caused major economic losses in tomato production worldwide. In seeking disease management alternatives, the inhibitory activity of alkaloids extracted from the Red Imported Fire Ant was studied in the laboratory and the greenhouse. Piperidine and piperideine alkaloids each significantly inhibited CMM growth on nutrient agar plates. The inhibitory activity of piperidine alkaloids was stable at 4 ^° C and 22 ^° C for 12 weeks and at 54 ^° C for 4 weeks. The growth of CMM was negatively correlated with the concentration of piperidine alkaloids in nutrient broth. In the greenhouse, piperidine alkaloids also significantly reduced the symptom development on two tomato cultivars, Better Boy and DRK7018F1. This is the first demonstration that piperidine and piperideine alkaloids from the Red Imported Fire Ant are highly inhibitory against a plant-pathogenic bacterium, viz. CMM. Piperidine alkaloids could provide satisfactory management of CMM bacterial canker on tomato seedlings in the greenhouse. Our findings may lead to the development of a new group of bactericides.     

Virulence and pCM1 plasmid carriage are related to BOX-PCR fingerprint type in strains of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis that cause bacterial wilt and canker of tomato in Argentina

Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm) causes bacterial wilt and canker in tomato, producing important economic losses worldwide. Its virulence has been related to several putative virulence factors present on a chromosomal pathogenicity island and on plasmids pCM1 and pCM2, in strain NCPPB382. We genotypically characterized a collection of Cmm isolates from the main greenhouse tomato-producing areas of Argentina by BOX-PCR fingerprinting and screened for the presence of genes and plasmids involved in pathogenicity by PCR. In addition, we evaluated in vitro cellulolytic activity and virulence in planta of selected strains. BOX-PCR fingerprinting clustered strains into four groups. Group II was dominant and included the most virulent strains, while Group III was the smallest and had the least virulent strains. All local strains exhibited similar cellulolytic activity. Most of the examined strains carry two plasmids of similar size to those of NCPPB382, although there were strains with one or three plasmids. By PCR amplification of repA, pCM1 was detected only in strains belonging to Group III, which includes local strains closely related to reference strain NCPPB382. All analysed pathogenicity genes were widespread among strains, and so in strains belonging to Groups I and II, celA found on pCM1 in NCPPB382 could be found in the chromosome or in plasmids other than pCM1. This study contributes to a better understanding of the diversity of Cmm genetic profiles and virulence of strains present in Argentina. Such information could be useful for the selection of strains for screening of host resistance and development of resistant tomato varieties.     

Induction of the viable but nonculturable state in Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis and in planta resuscitation of the cells on tomato seedlings

Bacterial canker of tomato is an economically important seedborne disease caused by Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm). Copper‐based bactericides and seed treatment with hydrochloric acid are commonly used for bacterial canker management. Recent studies have shown that some bacteria can enter a viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state, and fail to form colonies on microbiological agar media. Bacteria in the VBNC state can recover their culturability when returned to favourable conditions. This study reports the induction of the VBNC state in Cmm by CuSO₄ and low pH, and resuscitation of VBNC cells on tomato seedlings. Flow cytometry using the nucleic acid dyes SYTO 9 and propidium iodide, combined with agar plating, was used to assess VBNC cell counts. It was demonstrated that CuSO₄ and low pH induced the VBNC state in Cmm and the rate of induction increased with copper ion concentration and acidity. Pathogenicity tests showed that some of the VBNC cells induced by CuSO₄ retained their ability to colonize tomato seedlings but failed to produce typical bacterial canker symptoms by 2 months post‐inoculation. This was probably due to low levels of resuscitation of VBNC Cmm cells resulting in low levels of initial inoculum. This study has improved understanding of the VBNC state of Gram‐positive phytopathogenic bacteria. Most importantly, because copper‐based chemicals and low pH conditions are used for disease management, induction of the VBNC state and subsequent resuscitation of Cmm cells on tomato seedlings may limit pathogen detection by culture‐based assays yet present a risk for disease development in the field.     

Clonal populations of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis are responsible for the outbreaks of bacterial canker in greenhouse tomatoes in Italy

Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm) strains, collected in greenhouses from 17 farms during tomato bacterial canker outbreaks occurring between 2005 and 2008 in Sicily, were analysed by a multiphasic approach. Population studies were conducted to investigate the possible sources of inocula. Cmm strains were characterized by PCR assays targeting virulence genes, fingerprinting techniques, metabolic profiles and virulence. These strains were comparatively analysed with Cmm strains isolated in other parts of Italy over a period of 15 years. Chromosomal genes encoding virulence determinants tomA, ppaA, chpC, and the plasmid‐encoded genes pat‐1 and celA were detected by PCR in all tested strains, except for four Sicilian Cmm strains where the pat‐1 gene was not amplified. Using BOX‐PCR, Cmm strains were differentiated into 13 haplotypes and clonal populations were identified. Cmm strains isolated from different farms in 2008 showed the same BOX‐PCR haplotype. A distinct BOX‐PCR haplotype was obtained from atypical Cmm strains lacking pat‐1 and isolated in 2006/7 from three farms. Cmm strains with two different haplotypes were detected in one farm, whereas the other farms contained strains with only a single haplotype. A new fAFLP protocol based on the amplification of ApaI/MseI fragments was developed and was able to differentiate C. michiganensis subspecies. Different populations were delineated for the multiple outbreaks occurring in Sicily, whereas similar populations were recorded in other Italian regions over a period of 12 years. The results are consistent with previous studies that demonstrate that Cmm outbreaks are associated with propagation material.     

中国北方番茄细菌性溃疡病菌的rep-PCR基因指纹图谱分析

Survival of Clavibacter michiganensis ssp. michiganensis in infected tomato stems under natural field conditions in California, Ohio and Morocco

The survival and half-life of Clavibacter michiganensis ssp. michiganensis ( C. michiganensis ), the causal agent of bacterial canker of tomato, were determined in infected plant debris under natural field conditions in California, Ohio and Morocco using a semiselective agar medium. The organism survived significantly longer in tomato stems left on the soil surface than in stems buried in the soil at all locations studied. The pathogen was recovered in high amounts from tomato stems left on the soil surface for 314 days in Ohio and California, USA, and for 194 and 132 days in Melk Zhar and Aït Melloul, Morocco, respectively; it was recovered from stems buried in the soil for up to 314 days in Ohio, up to 240 days in California, and up to 60 days in Aït Melloul and Melk Zhar. The half-life of the pathogen in stems left on the soil surface ranged from 23·2 to 24·8 days in the USA, and from 7·8 to 12·3 days in Morocco, whereas the half-life in buried stems ranged from 14·0 to 16·7 days in the USA and from 3·7 to 9·5 days in Morocco. Based on the half-life data, the predicted survival times of C. michiganensis in stems on the soil surface in Ohio, California, Melk Zhar and Aït Melloul would be up to 822, 770, 424 and 261 days, respectively, while the predicted survival times in stems buried in the soil would be 541, 497, 305 and 128 days, respectively. These results show that the survival and half-life of C. michiganensis in plant debris are relatively long and are influenced by both tissue exposure and geographic location.     

Survival of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis in tomato debris under greenhouse conditions

Bacterial canker, caused by Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis, is one of the most important diseases of tomato worldwide. Once the pathogen has been introduced into an area, i.e. by contaminated seeds or transplants, it survives mainly on host debris. In different geographic areas the survival time of the pathogen in crop residues under field conditions has been very variable, ranging from 2 months in Morocco to 2 years in Iowa (USA). This study took place in the horticultural belt of Buenos Aires – La Plata, Argentina, where greenhouse production prevails, and monoculture with two production cycles per year is a common practice. The aim was to determine the survival time of this pathogen in plant residues left on the soil surface or buried. During three consecutive years, by the end of both production cycles in July (winter) and December (summer), above‐ (stem, petiole) and belowground (root) tissues were placed into nylon netting bags and left on the soil surface or buried at 10 cm depth. The pathogen population was regularly quantified by dilution plating on semiselective medium. In host debris left on the soil surface, bacteria survived 120–260 days for crop production cycles that ended in winter and 45–75 days for those that ended in summer. In stems or roots buried in winter, this period was 45–75 days. It is concluded that host debris, including roots, might be an important primary inoculum source of the pathogen in greenhouses.
