浙江不同稻区耳叶水苋对苄嘧磺隆的抗性比较

采用琼脂法测定了长江三角洲地区宁绍平原和杭嘉湖平原5个稻区(宁波、绍兴、杭州、嘉兴和湖州)稻田耳叶水苋Ammannia arenaria不同生物型对苄嘧磺隆的抗性水平。结果表明,所采集的88种耳叶水苋生物型中,有96.6%已对苄嘧磺隆产生了抗性,其中,低抗(3RI≤10)、中抗(10RI≤50)和高抗(RI>50)的生物型分别占总数的22.7%、53.4%和20.5%。宁波NB0143-01和绍兴SX077生物型对苄嘧磺隆的RI值分别高达124.4和120.4。5个稻区中,绍兴地区耳叶水苋的抗性水平最高,平均RI值为53.1;宁波次之,平均RI值为35.1;湖州、杭州和嘉兴地区的抗性水平相对较低,平均RI值分别为24.1、19.9和18.7。表明稻田耳叶水苋对苄嘧磺隆的抗性程度较高,且在宁绍平原和杭嘉湖平原稻区已普遍出现抗性。其中在宁绍平原苄嘧磺隆对耳叶水苋的选择压较大,长期连续用药可能是该地区抗性水平高于其他区域的重要原因。这是有关耳叶水苋对苄嘧磺隆抗性种群分布的首次报道。

基于深度学习算法的京津冀地区综合干旱评估模型构建

及时准确的干旱评估对社会经济发展和农业生产具有重要的指导意义,当前的干旱评估指标通常仅考虑植被或降水等单方面影响因素,在实际干旱评估中存在一定的局限性。本研究综合考虑降水、温度、地形等多个干旱致灾因子,以主要产粮基地京津冀地区为例,基于2007-2017年地表温度（Land Surface Temperature,LST）、归一化植被指数（Normalized Difference Vegetation Index,NDVI）以及降水等多源数据,利用深度学习框架Tensorflow构建以标准化降水蒸散发指数（Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index,SPEI）为目标值的综合干旱评估模型。利用决定系数（R2）和均方根误差（RMSE）对模型进行测试;利用站点标准化降水指数（Standardized Precipitation Index,SPI）、土壤相对湿度数据以及2016年京津冀地区的气象灾害数据,从时间和空间上对模型的可靠性进行验证。结果表明：模型的训练集和测试集在不同月份上均表现较好（R2均大于0.5而RMSE均小于0.55）。模型输出的综合干旱指数（Comprehensive Drought Index,CDI）在密云站上与SPI和SPEI接近,变化趋势基本一致,并且与站点SPI和土壤相对湿度的相关系数分别大于0.7和0.4,均通过了0.01水平的显著性检验。空间上,相较于SPEI,CDI计算的2016年3-7月京津冀地区干旱事件结果与实际情况符合度更高,表明该模型适用于京津冀地区干旱评估。     

A molecular marker linked to the Prv1 gene that confers resistance to Papaya ringspot virus-type W in melon

Papaya ringspot virus‐type W (PRSV‐W) is the most prevalent and important viral pathogen of cucurbits in Brazil. It can be effectively controlled by the incorporation of genetic resistance into susceptible melon cultivars. The present study identified amplified fragment length polymorphic (AFLP) markers linked to the PRSV‐W resistance Prv¹ allele. The susceptible yellow‐fleshed melon‐breeding line AF426^prv1 and its nearly isogenic‐resistant line AF426^Prv1, which carries the Prv¹ allele resident in the Indian cantaloupe U.S. Plant Introduction (PI) 180280, were screened for AFLP marker polymorphisms. Of 30 251 AFLP loci, only three were polymorphic between the nearly isogenic lines. Segregation analyses for these three polymorphic markers and the Prv¹ allele using a BC₁ population of 197 plants indicated close linkage (0.5% recombination frequency) between marker EK190 (HindIII‐CGA and MseI‐GTG; 190 bp) and Prv¹. Thus, EK190 might be a useful marker in breeding programmes aiming to develop melon cultivars resistant to PRSV‐W. The other two markers are closely linked to each other, but distantly linked to Prv¹.     

In vitro markers for virulence in Yersinia ruckeri

In this study, different traits that have been associated with bacterial virulence were studied in Yersinia ruckeri. Two isolates that had been shown to cause disease and mortality in experimentally infected rainbow trout were compared with five avirulent isolates. Both virulent isolates showed high adhesion to gill and intestinal mucus of rainbow trout, whereas the majority of non‐virulent strains demonstrated significantly lower adhesion. A decrease in adherence capability following bacterial treatment with sodium metaperiodate and proteolytic enzymes suggested the involvement of carbohydrates and proteins. All strains were able to adhere to and invade chinook salmon embryo cell line (CHSE‐214), fathead minnow epithelial cell line (FHM) and rainbow trout liver cell line (R1). One non‐virulent strain was highly adhesive and invasive in the three cell lines, whereas the virulent strains showed moderate adhesive and invasive capacity. The internalization of several isolates was inhibited by colchicine and cytochalasin‐D, suggesting that microtubules and microfilaments play a role. For all strains, intracellular survival assays showed a decrease of viable bacteria in the cells 6 h after inoculation, suggesting that Y. ruckeri is not able to multiply or survive inside cultured cells. Analysis of the susceptibility to the bactericidal effect of rainbow trout serum demonstrated that virulent Y. ruckeri strains were serum resistant, whereas non‐virulent strains were generally serum sensitive.     

Identification of resistance gene analogue markers closely linked to wheat powdery mildew resistance gene Pm31

Specific oligonucleotide primers, designed for the sequences of known plant disease resistance genes, were used to amplify resistance gene analogues (RGAs) from wheat genomic DNA. This method was applied in a bulked segregant analysis to screen for the RGA markers linked to the powdery mildew resistance gene Pm31, introgressed into common wheat from wild emmer. Two RGA markers (RGA200 and RGA390) were found to be closely linked to Pm31 and completely co‐segregating with the marker allele of Xpsp3029 linked to Pm31, with a genetic distance of 0.6 cM. These two RGA markers were then integrated into the formerly established microsatellite map of Pm31 region. The result showed the effectiveness of the RGA approach for developing molecular markers linked to disease resistance genes and demonstrated the efficiency of denaturing polyacrylamide‐gel electrophoresis for detecting polymerase chain reaction polymorphism.     

Influence of race and post infection temperature on two components of partial resistance to wheat leaf rust in seedlings of wheat

Summary Components of partial resistance, infection frequency and latency period, were determined in 71 winter and spring wheat genotypes in the seedling stage, after infection with three races of leaf rust (Felix 3B, Clement B and Betuwe 85C) at three different day/night temperature regimes (24/18°C, 18/12°C and 12/6°C). The genotypes were split into two groups and two separate experiments were carried out. Five genotypes, SVP 84039, Akabozu, Banco, BH 1146 and Orso, conferred a low infection frequency and a long latency period and Westphal 12A a long latency period, indicating a relatively high level of partial resistance. The correlation coefficient between infection frequency and latency period was low. Race-specificity was not found. There was a significant temperature effect on the latency period. In the second experiment the temperature x genotype interaction was significant. Temperature-response functions of transformed data demonstrated that the latency periods of four relatively resistant genotypes, Westphal 12A, Banco, BH 1146 and Orso and of Sarno and Mirela were most sensitive to temperature. The range between the genotypes with the longest and the shortest latency period was highest at 12°C. Therefore, low temperature regimes are preferred to distinguish differences in level of partial resistance.     

Genetical relationships between reactions to bacterial leaf spot,yellow mosaic and Cercospora leaf spot diseases in mungbean (Vigna radiata)

Summary Studies on the inheritance pattern of bacterial leaf spot (BLS), yellow mosaic (YM) and Cercospora leaf spot (CLS) reactions in crosses of BLS and YM resistant/tolerant but CLS susceptible × CLS resistant but BLS and YM susceptible parents indicated that resistances to BLS and CLS were governed by single dominant genes, whereas YM tolerance was a monogenic recessive character. The studies also indicated that these three genes were inherited independently. The simple inheritance pattern and independent assortment of the genes governing resistance/tolerance to these diseases suggest that the usual breeding methods will be adequate to develop multi-disease resistant mungbean cultivars.Paper XII in the series Studies on resistance in crops to bacterial diseases in India.     

Relation in the inheritance of resistance to Pseudoperonospora cubensis rost and Sphaerotheca fuliginea poll. in cucumber (Cucumis sativusl. L.)

Summary Among the genes for resistance against Sphaerotheca fuliginea, the gene s for resistance of the hypocotyl is linked to or identical with gene p for resistance to Pseudoperonospora cubensis. This gene s is present in the cultivars Ashley, Poinsett, Natsufushinari, Pixie, Taipei and in accessions PI 179676. PI 212233 and PI 234517.Although gene s initially brings about some resistance of the true leaf, it appears that when s is present. other genes are necessary for complete resistance to S. fuliginea.
