Biological control ofBotrytis cinerea in residues and flowers of Rose (Rosa hybrida)

Microbial isolates from living petals, petal residues and leaf residues of rose, and from laboratory collections, were evaluated for control ofBotrytis cinerea in rose. In leaf residues artificially infested withB. cinerea, isolates of the filamentous fungiGliocladium roseum, FR136 (unidentified) andTrichoderma inhamatum reduced sporulation of the pathogen by >90%, other filamentous fungi were 25–90% effective, and those of yeasts and bacteria were <50% effective. In artificially inoculated petal residues, no microbe reduced sporulation ofB. cinerea by >75%, but isolates ofCladosporium oxysporum and four yeasts were 51–75% effective, and three filamentous fungi, eight yeasts andBacillus subtilis isolates were 26–50% effective. Isolates ofT. inhamatum, C. oxysporum andG. roseum performed best againstB. cinerea among isolates evaluated in leaf residues naturally infested with the pathogen and indigenous microorganisms. Totals of ten isolates of filamentous fungi (includingC. oxysporum andC. cladosporioides), two of yeasts and five ofBacillus subtilis completely prevented lesion production byB. cinerea in detached petals, and a further six isolates of filamentous fungi (includingG. roseum) and six yeasts were 90–99% effective. Isolates ofC. oxysporum, C. cladosporioides andB. subtilis, the most effective microorganisms againstB. cinerea in flower buds, reduced number of lesions in the range of 42–65% compared with 59–89% for à standard fungicide (vinclozolin). It is suggested that application of leading antagonists Jo living rose leaves and flowers should optimize control of inoculum production byB. cinerea when the tissues die. Optimal biocontrol of lesion production in flower buds requires a better understanding of the microenvironment of petals.     

啶酰菌胺与唑胺菌酯混配对灰葡萄孢毒力的增效作用

为明确啶酰菌胺与唑胺菌酯对灰葡萄孢Botrytis cinerea毒力的增效作用,采用菌丝生长速率法测定了啶酰菌胺与唑胺菌酯不同配比混合物对灰葡萄孢菌株DZ3(对多菌灵、乙霉威和嘧霉胺高抗)的毒力,以Wadley公式评价了其协同作用。选取最佳增效组合,采用黄瓜子叶喷雾法测定了其对其他5个菌株的毒力及田间防效。通过测定菌株DZ3分生孢子悬浮液中的溶氧量、电导率和菌丝中丙二醛的含量,研究最佳增效组合的增效机制。结果表明:啶酰菌胺与唑胺菌酯不同质量比(9∶1、7∶1、5∶1、3∶1、1∶1、1∶3、1∶5、1∶7和1∶9)的混合物均对菌株DZ3表现为毒力增效作用,其中质量比为1∶3的组合增效最明显,增效系数达4.76,且对另外5个供试菌株的联合毒力也表现出增效;在使用剂量为有效成分200~300 g/hm2时,质量比为1∶3的组合对番茄灰霉病的防治效果为78.05%~93.96%,同时其对菌株DZ3的呼吸抑制作用与单剂啶酰菌胺相当,但对细胞膜通透性和菌丝膜脂质过氧化的影响均显著高于各单剂。本研究结果表明,啶酰菌胺与唑胺菌酯以质量比1∶3进行混配,可用于番茄灰霉病的防治。     

北京地区草莓灰霉病菌对异菌脲的抗性及抗性分子机制

由灰葡萄孢(Botrytis cinerea Pers.)引起的草莓灰霉病是草莓上危害严重的病害之一。为了解北京地区草莓灰霉病菌对二甲酰亚胺类常用杀菌剂异菌脲的抗性,本研究采用最低抑制浓度法分别检测了2013年和2014年从北京地区15个草莓园采集的共计121株草莓灰霉病菌对异菌脲的抗性。结果表明,北京地区草莓灰霉病菌对异菌脲存在较高的抗性频率,2014年较2013年的抗性频率略有上升,由40.4%上升为45.3%。不同草莓园菌株的抗性频率差异很大,可能与用药水平有关。2014年的低抗、中抗和高抗菌株数分别占检测菌株总数的9.4%、28.1%和7.8%。利用PCR技术扩增编码组氨酸激酶基因BcOS1中与二甲酰亚胺抗性相关的区段,对抗性菌株的分子机制进行了初步研究,结果表明BcOS1基因第1 214位核苷酸发生了2类突变:以第Ⅰ类为主,菌株的抗性水平为中抗和高抗,由ATC突变为AGC,导致第365位氨基酸由异亮氨酸变为丝氨酸;第Ⅱ类菌株为低抗,由ATC突变AAC,导致第365位氨基酸由异亮氨酸变为天冬酰胺。

灰葡萄孢菌nit突变体的诱导及其在营养体亲和性测定中的应用初探

 从山西运城、临汾、长治、晋中、大同等地保护地黄瓜灰霉病病株上采集、分离的分属于3个不同菌丝融合群的8个灰葡萄孢菌单孢菌株,经氯酸盐诱导处理,共获得了抗氯酸盐的硝酸盐利用缺陷突变体(nit突变体)59株,其中nit1型38株,nit3型10株,nitM型11株。所有nit突变株分别在PDA斜面转管培养3次(21 d)后,除6株恢复成野生菌株外,其余多数nit突变菌株表现稳定。来源于同一野生菌株的不同类型nit突变体间或同一菌丝融合群不同野生菌株的nit突变体间可产生互补反应而形成异核体,其中以nitM型突变株互补性最好,在利用nit突变体测定灰葡萄孢菌营养体亲和性时应作为标准菌株。来源于不同菌丝融合群的nit突变体间不能产生互补反应。     

Transgenic cucumber expressing an endogenous class III chitinase gene has reduced symptoms from Botrytis cinerea

A class III chitinase gene (CHI2) is induced in cucumber plants (Cucumis sativa L.) in response to infection by pathogenic microorganisms. Infection of Botrytis cinerea, causal agent of gray mold disease on cucumber, also induces CHI2 expression. To investigate whether CHI2 is involved in resistance to gray mold disease, transgenic cucumber plants were produced to overexpress the CHI2 gene. One line was analyzed in detail in terms of disease resistance. The transgenic cucumber plant (CC2) constitutively expressed CHI2 and reduced the symptoms of B. cinerea for 4 days after inoculation compared with nontransgenic plants. However, this inhibitory effect was not absolute, and CC2 eventually developed serious disease symptoms. Chitinase activity of the crude extract from CC2 leaves was higher than that from nontransgenic plants. A high-molecular-weight fraction containing CHI2 from CC2 leaves had fungistatic activity against B. cinerea. Interestingly, the low-molecular-weight fraction from CC2 leaves with CHI2 removed also had fungistatic activity against B. cinerea. Not only the introduced chitinase activity but also the endogenous defense reactions activated by overexpression of CHI2 may be involved in the enhanced gray mold disease resistance in CC2.     

Calcium reducesBotrytis c1nerea damages to plants ofRuscus hypoglossum

Plants ofRuscus hypoglossum L. were grown in containers with perlite, an inert medium, or with soil, under similar-to-commercial conditions, for three winter seasons. Constant fertilization with soluble calcium [Ca(NO₃)₂] through the root zone resulted in a reduction of up to 78% in postharvest rot caused by artificial inoculation withBotrytis cinerea Pers. ex Fr. Control plants were treated by fertilization with N,P,K and all other elements, identical to the fertilizer containing calcium. Foliar application of Ca(NO₃)₂ to ruscus bushes or application of this compound or of CaCl₂ or CaSO₄ to mature cut branches standing in water, resulted also in a significant reduction in postharvest phylloclade rot. Application of CaSO₄ and Ca(H2PO₄)₂ + CaSO₄ to ruscus plants, from fertilizers containing 22% Ca and releasing the cation gradually, effectively reduced the susceptibility of cut branches to infection by_{B. cinerea.}     

Significance of ABC transporters in fungicide sensitivity and resistance

ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are members of a protein superfamily which can be responsible for efflux of drugs from cells of target organisms. In this way, the transporters may provide a mechanism of protection against cytotoxic drugs. In laboratory-generated mutants of fungi, overproduction of ABC transporters can cause multi-drug resistance to azoles and other non-related toxicants. The impact of this mechanism of resistance in field populations with decreased sensitivity to azoles remains to be established. Inhibitors of ABC transporter activity may synergize activity of azoles to populations of both sensitive and azole-resistant pathogens. The natural function of ABC transporters in plant pathogenic fungi may relate to transport of plant-defence compounds or fungal pathogenicity factors. Therefore, inhibitors of ABC transporter activity may act as disease control agents with an indirect mode of action. ©1997 SCI     

苯霜灵与茶皂素对黄瓜灰霉病菌的联合作用研究

在室内用生长速率法测定了苯霜灵（ｂｅｎａｌａｘｙｌ）、茶皂素（Ｔｅａｓａｐｏｎｉｎ）及二者的不同比例的混剂对黄瓜灰霉病菌的抑制作用。生测结果表明,苯霜灵与茶皂素以１：４混用对抑制黄瓜灰霉病菌菌丝的生长有一定的增效作用,ＥＣ５０＝１１０．６３μｇ／ｍＬ,共毒系数为１６３．８４;二种药剂及其１：４比例的混剂对灰霉菌孢子的萌发没有显著抑制作用,但能迟孢子的萌发;实验还发现二种药剂及其混剂仅起抑菌作用,而无杀菌作用。用２５μｇ／ｍＬ浓度的苯霜灵处理菌丝悬浮液,发现处理后的菌丝短而分枝少,菌丝形成隔膜较早,老化局,细胞壁变薄,透明度增加。
