磷酸甘油转移酶基因在水稻白叶枯病菌致病力中的作用研究

稻黄单胞菌稻致病变种(Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae,Xoo)引起的水稻白叶枯病,是水稻上的重要致灾病害之一。前期基因组学分析发现,Xoo菌株PXO99^A的PXO＿04062基因可能编码一个磷酸甘油转移酶,推测与病原菌的致病力有关。本研究采用自杀质粒pK18mobsacB介导的方法,构建了该基因的缺失突变体,并对突变体进行了反式互补。水稻上致病性测定发现,与野生型菌株相比,PXO＿04062基因的缺失突变体DM04062在寄主水稻日本晴上的致病力显著下降,并且其胞外多糖产量、运动性、生物膜形成等均明显降低。进一步采用RNA-seq方法比较突变体转录组的变化,发现突变体中的差异表达基因共有533个,其中包括多个致病相关基因,如胞外多糖合成和细胞运动性等相关基因。与野生型相比,这些基因在突变体中的表达均显著下调。这些结果说明,白叶枯病菌的磷酸甘油转移酶基因是通过影响多种致病力相关因子的合成,来影响病菌在水稻上的致病力。     

祁连山云杉林土壤溶磷细菌的分离及对白三叶的促生效应

为获得具有促进牧草白三叶(Trifolium repens L.)生长能力的优良溶磷细菌(Phosphate solubilizing bacteria, PSB)资源,本研究以祁连山青海云杉林(Picea crassifolia)根际土壤细菌为研究对象,采用平板定性与钼锑抗比色定量分析、系统进化分析和植物盆栽接种试验,探究了上述根际土壤所分离菌株的溶磷能力、分类地位和对白三叶生长的影响。结果表明：筛选得到的12株PSB菌株在难溶性无机磷(National botanical research institute phosphorus, NBRIP)平板上的溶磷圈直径/菌落直径的比值范围为1.44～2.40。12株PSB菌株均归属于假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas sp.)。在上述基础上,选取的5株菌株在NBRIP液体培养基培养96 h后,发酵液的可溶性磷含量范围为387.41～479.87μg·mL^-1,其中菌株LT-4发酵液的可溶性磷含量最高。植物接种试验结果表明,与空白对照相比,接种菌株LT-4能显著提高白三叶的生物量,植株地上部和根干重分别显著增加87....

Effect of biocontrol agents and biofertilizers on root rot,yield, harvest index and nutrient uptake of cassava (Manihot esculanta Crantz)

Cassava is an important subsidiary food and industrial raw material in the tropics. Root rot disease, caused by Phytophthora palmivora, poses a serious threat to cassava cultivation in Tamil Nadu, India. Field experiments (2008–09) were conducted to study the effect of biocontrol agents (Trichoderma spp. and Pseudomonas fluorescens) and biofertilizers (Azospirillum, vesicular–arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria) on root rot, yield, harvest index and nutrient uptake of cassava at two NPK rates. The design of the experiment was a split plot with two NPK rates, recommended and 50% recommended rate, as the main plot treatments and five biocontrol agents and biofertilizers as subplot treatments. The results clearly indicated that use of a bioinoculants consortium significantly reduced root rot infection/disease incidence over uninoculated controls. Azospirillum significantly improved the yield of cassava at 50% of the recommended rate of NPK. NPK rates had no significant impact on harvest index of cassava and Trichoderma and vesicular–arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi resulted in a higher harvest index even at 50% of the recommended NPK rate. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium uptake was significantly improved when treated with biofertilizers and/or a consortium.     

Control of Phytophthora cryptogea in the hydroponic forcing of witloof chicory with the rhamnolipid-based biosurfactant formulation PRO1

Rhamnolipids, extracellular metabolites of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with surfactant properties, proved to be very effective in controlling the spread of brown root rot disease caused by Phytophthora cryptogea in the hydroponic forcing system of witloof chicory ( Cichorium intybus var. foliosum ). The biosurfactant was applied as the product PRO1, a formulation of 25% rhamnolipids in oil. Both an in vitro screening and in vivo experiments in a mini-hydroponic system demonstrated the ability of PRO1 to control brown root rot. A 25  µ g mL⁻¹ rhamnolipids nutrient solution was enough to obtain good control of an artificial infection with a zoospore suspension of P. cryptogea . The biosurfactant PRO1 performed well in a semicommercial system under growers' conditions. A treatment of 25  µ g mL⁻¹ rhamnolipids (100  µ g mL⁻¹ PRO1) reduced the disease incidence significantly in two independent experiments. However, PRO1 was not effective when a mycelial suspension was used as inoculum. Rhamnolipids have good potential to limit the spread of P. cryptogea in the hydroponic forcing system of witloof chicory, and can be used as a preventive measure against brown root rot.     

纳米TiO2悬浮液对烟草青枯菌杀菌活性的研究

纳米T iO2是一种半导体光催化剂,在近紫外光的激发下,可以产生强的杀菌活性。以烟草青枯菌P seudomonas solanacearum为试验对象,采用平板稀释法对自制的纳米T iO2悬浮液进行杀菌活性测定。结果表明:在阳光或汞灯下照射4h后,T iO2对烟草青枯菌的杀菌率可达90%以上。说明用纳米T iO2防治烟草青枯病具有一定的可行性。     

Characterization of Elicitor-inducible Tobacco Genes Isolated by Differential Hybridization

Inducible responses in plants against pathogen attack play a major role in resistance to disease. The defense responses are mostly associated with the expression of various kinds of inducible genes. We employed differential hybridization to isolate elicitor-inducible genes (EIGs) of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun NN) using the tobacco-fungal elicitor system. A cDNA library was constructed from tobacco leaves treated for 12 hr with hyphal wall components (HWC) prepared from Phytophthora infestans, and six EIGs were identified. Expression of all EIGs was induced after inoculation with the soybean pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea (nonpathogenic on tobacco) or treatment with salicylic acid, and a variety of expression patterns of EIG mRNAs was observed. Sequence analysis of EIG cDNAs revealed similarities to genes for SAR8.2 (EIG-B39 and EIG-D14), glycine-rich protein (EIG-G7), extensin (EIG-I30), acyltransferase (EIG-I24) and unknown protein (EIG-J7). Possible roles of EIG products in disease resistance are discussed. Received 30 August 2000/ Accepted in revised form 30 November 2000     

Growth Complementation of hrpXo Mutants of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae by Virulent Strains in Rice Cultivars Resistant and Susceptible to the Parental Strain

Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (X. o. pv. oryzae) T7174 is virulent on rice cultivar IR24 and avirulent on IR-BB2. From recent reports, some virulence and avirulence factors of plant pathogenic bacteria are transferred to plant cells through the hrp-dependent type III secretion system. In this study, we investigated the involvement of hrp genes in the compatible and the incompatible interactions between rice and X. o. pv. oryzae after co-inoculation with hrpXo mutants derived from T7174 and virulent strains. Growth of the mutants, named 74ΔHrpXo and 76ΔHrpXo, was repressed in IR24 when the mutants were applied alone. However, growth of the mutants was complemented by co-inoculation with virulent strains. Growth of bioluminescent hrpXo mutant 76ΔHrpXo in IR24 and its growth in IR-BB2 after co-inoculation with T7133, which is virulent on both cultivars, was equally complemented, as detected by bioluminescence from the mutant. On the other hand, only partial complementation of growth of T7174L76, which is a bioluminescent and pathogenic derivative of T7174, by T7133 was observed in IR-BB2. Thus, growth of the hrpXo mutant of X. o. pv. oryzae was complemented by virulent strains in both susceptible and resistant rice leaves with the parental strain.

抑菌圈-定殖力双重测定法筛选青枯病生防细菌

 本研究首先用平皿抑菌圈法筛选出55个拮抗青枯菌的细菌菌株,将番茄幼苗在各菌菌悬液中浸根12h后栽种于温室未灭菌的土壤中,结果发现,有22个菌株在幼苗根部的定殖能力较强(终定殖密度大于104 cfu/g根),其中革兰氏阴性土壤细菌占同类菌的86.3%,革兰氏阳性土壤细菌占同类菌的13.0%,10个无致病力产细菌素的青枯菌菌株在根部的终定殖密度均低于104 cfu/g根,其定殖能力弱于致病青枯菌。有17个拮抗菌菌株在番茄幼苗根部的定殖密度超过所有致病菌。温室生防结果证明,抑菌圈-定殖力双重测定法对于筛选生防菌株是一种行之有效的方法。     

荧光93菌体和代谢物对全蚀病菌和小麦生长影响的初步研究

对荧光假单胞菌工程菌剂“荧光93”菌体和代谢物的作用特性进行了比较。结果表明:该菌剂能保护小麦根系免遭全蚀病危害,对植株生长有促进作用。菌体的抑菌能力强于代谢物,浸种处理防效分别为44.8％和27.8％;代谢物具有更强的刺激植株生长作用,在无病条件下,代谢物灌根处理鲜重增加34.5％,菌体处理鲜重增加7.5％。培养基成份对代谢物的作用有一定影响:以马铃薯葡萄糖培养产生的代谢物,抑菌效果好;营养肉汁酵母粉培养产生的代谢物,促生作用好。据此推断,荧光93菌剂代谢产物中含有抑制全蚀病菌和刺激植株生长的物质。
