Adhesion to the host surface is the first step for successful plant pathogen development and has been reported to be associated with both passive and active processes. For conidia of Venturia inaequalis, which depend on leaf wetness for germination, this process has not yet been described. Conidia of V. inaequalis adhered to wet hydrophobic surfaces immediately after contact to the surface, hours before initiation of germination. Attachment of nongerminated conidia was much better on hydrophobic surfaces, such as apple leaves and polystyrene, than on hydrophilic glass. Conidia released adhesive material localized in a droplet named spore tip glue (STG) at the spore apex which interacted with a contact surface only when water was present. Histochemical investigations indicated the presence of proteins and carbohydrates in STG, lectin labeling the presence of beta-galactose and N-acetylglucosaminyl residues. Transmission electron microscopy revealed two phases in the STG at the tip of dry mature conidia; as STG was present on the outer side of the intact fungal cell wall its formation should be associated with the secretion of glue through pores of the conidial wall. Surface-active substances affected the adhesion of conidia to hydrophobic surfaces stressing the importance of hydrophobic interactions. The use of protein biosynthesis inhibitors did not affect adhesion of conidia indicating that the adhesive material was preformed. It is concluded that the coincidence of STG, contact to a hydrophobic surface, and free water are essential for the adhesion of V. inaequalis conidia. 相似文献

A 16-year-old Thoroughbred mare presented with a 1-year history of a growing mass on the rostral mandible. Biopsy performed by the referring veterinarian revealed chronic granulating fibrosis and stomatitis. Due to progressive loss of body condition and increasing size, the mare presented to the clinic. Radiographic examination of the mandible revealed osteolytic lesions. Mandibulectomy was performed under general anaesthesia. The horse's demeanour and feed intake improved significantly and the cosmetic outcome was acceptable. Histopathological examination confirmed a sarcoma, most likely a fibrosarcoma. 相似文献

Effect of downy mildew development on transpiration of cucumber leaves visualized by digital infrared thermography 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
ABSTRACT Disease progress of downy mildew on cucumber leaves, caused by the obligate biotrophic pathogen Pseudoperonospora cubensis, was shown to be associated with various changes in transpiration depending on the stage of pathogenesis. Spatial and temporal changes in the transpiration rate of infected and noninfected cucumber leaves were visualized by digital infrared thermography in combination with measurements of gas exchange as well as microscopic observations of pathogen growth within plant tissue and stomatal aperture during pathogenesis. Transpiration of cucumber leaf tissue was correlated to leaf temperature in a negative linear manner (r = -0.762, P < 0.001, n = 18). Leaf areas colonized by Pseudoperonospora cubensis exhibited a presymptomatic decrease in leaf tem perature up to 0.8 degrees C lower than noninfected tissue due to abnormal stomata opening. The appearance of chlorosis was associated with a cooling effect caused by the loss of integrity of cell membranes leading to a larger amount of apoplastic water in infected tissue. Increased water loss from damaged cells and the inability of infected plant tissue to regulate stomatal opening promoted cell death and desiccation of dying tissue. Ultimately, the lack of natural cooling from necrotic tissue was associated with an increase in leaf temperature. These changes in leaf temperature during downy mildew development resulted in a considerable heterogeneity in temperature distribution of infected leaves. The maximum temperature difference within a thermogram of cucumber leaves allowed the discrimination between healthy and infected leaves before visible symptoms appeared. 相似文献
