Egg hatch of Pratylenchus thornei was influenced by temperature. It took place at all temperatures within the range 10–25°C and was optimal at 20°C. Root penetration increased steadily with increasing time of incubation up to the end of the experiment 11 days after inoculation. Temperature affected penetration rate in chickpea ( Cicer arietinum ) cultivars UC 27 and JG 62 but not in line P 2245, being significantly higher at 20–25°C than that at 15°C. At the end of the experiment, roots of line P 2245 held at 15°C contained more P. thornei than cultivars UC 27 and JG 62. No difference in percentage penetration among host genotypes was observed at 20 or 25°C. All migratory stages of P. thornei penetrated roots of chickpea from the first to 11th days after inoculation.  相似文献

Four populations of Pratylenchus thornei from different locations were tested for reproductive fitness in axenic carrot disc cultures and for pathogenicity to chickpea cultivars JG 62 and UC 27 and lines K 850 and ILC 1929. Parasitism and histopathology on selected chickpea genotypes (JG 62, UC 27 and lines ILC 482, ICC 11324 and ICC 12237) were also investigated. Reproductive fitness, assessed as the ratio of the final number of nematodes per carrot disc to the number of nematodes inoculated, was similar among the populations tested and the four populations reproduced to a similar extent in a given chickpea genotype. However, the extent of reproduction was significantly affected by the chickpea genotype, JG 62 and UC 27 being the best and poorest hosts, respectively. Pathogenicity to chickpea genotypes was assessed by the difference in fresh root and dry shoot weights between infected and uninfected plants 90 days after inoculation. Plant growth was significantly reduced by the four nematode populations in all chickpea genotypes, with the exception of cv. JG 62, which was tolerant of P. thornei . Severity of root necrosis caused by nematode infection was similar for all populations. Histopathological studies of chickpea genotypes infected by P. thornei showed that all were suitable hosts according to nematode reproduction and host reaction. P. thornei always migrated through epidermal and cortical cells by breaking down cell walls along the nematode pathway. In the most susceptible lines (ILC 482 and JG 62), damage to endodermal cells adjacent to nematode feeding sites was occasionally observed.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris and the root-lesion nematode Pratylenchus thornei coinfect chickpeas in southern Spain. The influence of root infection by P. thornei on the reaction of Fusarium wilt-susceptible (CPS 1 and PV 61) and wilt-resistant (UC 27) chickpea cultivars to F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceris race 5 was investigated under controlled and field conditions. Severity of Fusarium wilt was not modified by coinfection of chickpeas by P. thornei and F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceris, in simultaneous or sequential inoculations with the pathogens. Root infection with five nematodes per cm(3) of soil and 5,000 chlamydospores per g of soil of the fungus resulted in significantly higher numbers of propagules of F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceris with the wilt-susceptible cultivar CPS 1, but not with the wilt-resistant one. However, infection with 10 nematodes per cm(3) of soil significantly increased root infection by F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceris in both cultivars, irrespective of fungal inoculum densities (250 to 2,000 chlamydospores per g of soil). Plant growth was significantly reduced by P. thornei infection on wilt-susceptible and wilt-resistant chickpeas in controlled and field conditions, except when shorter periods of incubation (45 days after inoculation) were used under controlled conditions. Severity of root necrosis was greater in wilt-susceptible and wilt-resistant cultivars when nematodes were present in the root, irrespective of length of incubation time (45 to 90 days), densities of nematodes (5 and 10 nematodes per cm(3) of soil), fungal inocula, and experimental conditions. Nematode reproduction on the wilt-susceptible cultivars, but not on the wilt-resistant one, was significantly increased by F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceris infections under controlled and field conditions.  相似文献

Tomato cultivar Moneymaker was independently inoculated with Alternaria alternata, Cunninghamella elegans, Fusarium culmorum, F. oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici, F. oxysporum f.sp. pisi and Stromatinia gladioli and analysed ultrastructurally. The extent and amount of superficial fungal growth on tomato roots was similar but C. elegans , a saprophyte, was exceptional in that hyphae were not closely appressed to plant surfaces and did not adhere to plant cell walls.
In general, the type of plant responses to fungal colonization and infection were similar in all of the interactions studied, with the exception of C. elegans which did not infect tomato root tissue. The failure to penetrate tomato roots by C. elegans may have been associated with the lack of hyphal adhesion to plant cell walls. Migration of cytoplasm and wall apposition/penetration papilla formation were regularly observed in tomato root tissue beneath appressed hyphae and at sites of fungal infection. Specific cellular reactions in the exodermis, namely the formation of wall 'inclusions' and appearance of 'sensitive' cells, indicated that exodermal cells were particularly responsive to fungal challenge.
Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici , a pathogen of tomato, invaded tomato root tissue more extensively than the other fungi inoculated onto tomato roots. Infection of tomato by the other fungi studied was variable, and the extent and success of fungal invasion was tentatively associated with their necrotrophic capability and typical host range.  相似文献

Pratylenchus thornei -chickpea interactions were investigated under controlled and fluctuating environmental conditions in the growth chamber, greenhouse and shadehouse. Under controlled conditions, P. thornei infected chickpea lines 12071/10054 and P2245 and cultivars Andoum 1, JG62 and UC27. Line P 2245 and cv. JG 62 were the most susceptible genotypes on the basis of root damage and nematode reproduction, but nematode infection did not significantly reduce root and shoot weights. Cultivars Andoum 1 and UC27 and line 12071/10054 showed the least root damage and nematode reproduction. Inoculation of cv. Andoum 1 with 2500, 5000 or 10000 nematodes per plant in pots did not affect shoot weight, regardless of the conditions of water stress of the plants. However, root weight was significantly reduced by nematode infection in plants grown under water stress and fluctuating temperature conditions in the greenhouse, but was not affected by any other treatment. The nematode reproduction index was not affected by soil water content under shadehouse conditions, but was greater on plants watered to soil water-holding capacity than in water-stressed plants under greenhouse conditions. For both environments, the nematode reproduction index decreased when inoculum density was greater than 5000 nematodes per plant.  相似文献

Reproducible infection of intact roots of oil palm ( Elaeis guineensis ) with Ganoderma boninense , the cause of basal stem rot, showed penetration followed by rapid longitudinal progression of hyphae and colonization of the lower stem (bole). Light and transmission electron microscopy showed invasion of the root cortex, with no evidence of selective progression through the vascular system or lacunae. In newly colonized tissue the fungus behaved as a hemibiotroph, with numerous, wide, intracellular hyphae occupying entire host cells that possessed intact cell walls and contained discernible cytoplasm and organelles. In the bole this phase coincided with a complete depletion of previously abundant starch grains in advance of invasion. Subsequently, in the roots and colonized stem base, widespread necrotrophic, enzymatic attack of all layers of the host cell walls occurred. Hyphae were intra- and intercellular and intramural and associated host cell wall degradation was often at a distance from hyphae, resulting in cavities within cell walls. A third developmental stage was the formation of an extensive, melanized, tough mycelium or pseudo-sclerotium which surrounded roots and comprised many very thick-walled cells encasing more typical thin-walled hyphae. Macroscopic observation of and isolation from the bole of randomly felled, commercial palms provided confirmatory evidence that multiple infections originated in the roots before spreading into the base of long-established palms.  相似文献

Pathozone dynamics were derived for approx. 50 Meloidogyne incognita juveniles infecting a single root of tomato under controlled conditions from a point source of inoculum and described using simple, non-linear models. The pathozone decayed sigmoidally with distance, but increased over time as progressively more nematodes were able to infect the root. Despite the reported ability of M. incognita juveniles to travel up to 50 cm in some conditions, the maximum width of the pathozone for a single tomato root was estimated as 18·1 mm. It is conjectured that this was because of (i) diffusion from a point source of inoculum, (ii) a small infection court (a single root tip) and (iii) the limited life span of the nematode. A second experiment was used to assess the effect of the nematophagous fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia on the pathozone dynamics of the nematode. This fungus is known to produce nematicidal products in vitro , which may affect invasion of roots by the free-living nematode. To examine the possibility of a change in the position of the site of infection, changes in the probability of gall formation along the root length were also examined. In the absence of P. chlamydosporia , the pathozone dynamics of M. incognita were very similar to those of the first experiment. It was shown that P. chlamydosporia did not significantly affect the pathozone dynamics of M. incognita nor the site of gall formation, which appear to have little importance for the role of the fungus as a biological control agent.  相似文献

The root-lesion nematode Pratylenchus thornei is one of the most important pests restricting productivity of wheat in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). It is laborious and difficult to use microscopy to count and identify the nematodes in soils. A SYBR Green I-based real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was developed to detect and quantify this species from DNA extracts of soil. A primer set, designed from the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS1) of rDNA, was highly specific to P. thornei and did not amplify DNA from 27 isolates of other Pratylenchus spp., other nematodes, and six fungal species present in PNW wheat fields. A standard curve relating threshold cycle and log values of nematode number was generated from artificially infested soils. The standard curve was supported by a high correlation between the numbers of P. thornei added to soil and the numbers quantified using real-time PCR. Examination of 15 PNW dryland field soils and 20 greenhouse samples revealed significant positive correlations between the numbers determined by real-time PCR and by the Whitehead tray and microscopic method. Real-time PCR is a rapid, sensitive alternative to time-consuming nematode extractions, microscopic identification, and counting of P. thornei from field and greenhouse soils.  相似文献

Phytophthora root rot (PRR) of avocado, caused by Phytophthora cinnamomi, is a significant threat to sustainable production wherever the crop is grown. Resistant rootstocks in combination with phosphite applications are the most effective options for managing this disease. Recently, the mechanisms underpinning PRR resistance have been investigated by the avocado community. Here, biochemical assays and confocal and scanning electron microscopy were used to investigate early defence responses in PRR resistant and ‐susceptible avocado rootstocks. Zoospore germination and subsequent hyphal growth for the pathogen were significantly inhibited on the surface of resistant avocado roots. When penetration occurred in the resistant R0.06 rootstock, callose was deposited in the epidermal cells, parenchyma and cortex of roots. In addition, β‐1,3‐glucanase was released early (6 h post‐inoculation, hpi) in response to the pathogen, followed by a significant increase in catalase by 24 hpi. In contrast, susceptible R0.12 roots responded only with the deposition of lignin and phenolic compounds incapable of impeding pathogen colonization. In this study, PRR resistance was attributed to a timely multilayered response to infection by P. cinnamomi.  相似文献

Infection of young roots of maize (Zea mays L.) by the parasitic plant Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth. was examined. Attachment to and penetration of roots occurred within 1–2 days after inoculation. Subsequent growth through the cortex to the host stele and proliferation of parasite xylem tissue was commonly completed by 3–4 days after inoculation. Histochemical staining showed that young maize roots do not contain major wall-thickening components. However, an increase in cell wall fluorescence and endodermal cell wall thickness was often seen at the site of infection and in the surrounding maize root tissue at 3 days after inoculation. This host response was variable and did not prevent rapid and successful penetration by the parasite. In contrast, uninfected roots of Pennisetum setosum (Sw.) L. Rich., a species resistant to S. hermonthica, had substantial thickening of the inner endodermal cell walls and exhibited further cell wall thickening at the stele upon infection. Examination of infections on both hosts demonstrated the presence of autofluorescent material at the host-parasite interface. This material was thicker and more extensive at the P. setosum-S. hermonthica interface than at the maize-S. hermonthica interface, and contained polyphenols and lignin. Examination of the host-parasite xylem connections in maize revealed substantial invasion of the host stele by both parenchyma and tracheary elements. In a few cases of P. setosum infection, parasite cells entered the stele; however, this did not lead to successful establishment of the parasite.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Port-Orford-cedar (POC) root disease, caused by Phytophthora lateralis, continues to kill POC in landscape plantings and natural forests in western North America. POC trees resistant to P. lateralis have been identified and propagated. Cytological observations of P. lateralis in susceptible and resistant roots and stems were made with light and transmission electron microscopy to identify resistance mechanisms. No differences in infection pathway and initial colonization were observed between susceptible and resistant roots, although there were differences in the rate and extent of development. Germ tubes formed appressoria, and penetration hyphae grew either between or directly through epidermal cell walls; inter- and intracellular hyphae colonized the root cortex. In susceptible roots, hyphae penetrated into the vascular system within 48 h of inoculation. In contrast, hyphae in roots of resistant seedlings grew more slowly in cortical cells and were not observed to penetrate to the vascular tissues. In resistant roots, infection was marked by general thickening of cortical cell walls, wall appositions around penetrating hyphae, collapse of cortical cells, and accumulation of osmophillic granules around hyphae. In susceptible stems, hyphae grew inter- and intracellularly in all cells of the secondary phloem except fiber cells, but were concentrated in sieve and parenchyma cells in the functional phloem. The pattern of penetration and colonization of hyphae was similar in the resistant stems, except that hyphae were found in the fiber cells of the xylem. In resistant stems, there were fewer hyphae in the functional phloem, and cytological changes such as damaged nuclei and disintegrated cytoplasm were evident. Structural changes in resistant stems included collapsed cells, wall thickening, secretory bodies, apposition of electron dense materials, and crystals in cell walls.  相似文献

淡紫拟青霉发酵滤液对大豆胞囊线虫趋化性的影响   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
 实验室条件下,研究了大豆胞囊线虫幼虫对大豆根和根浸出液的趋化性以及淡紫拟青霉代谢产物对其趋化性的影响。结果表明,大豆胞囊线虫二龄幼虫(J2)对大豆根存在着一定的趋化性,而淡紫拟青霉发酵滤液对J2存在明显的驱避性。在根浸出液、真菌滤液及其混合液剂处理下,大豆胞囊线虫J2在WA平板上靠近处理液的0~1cm区间中分布率存在极显著差异(P <0.0 1),而加样时间(液剂与线虫同时放置或提前2 4h处理)对其分布率没有显著影响。大豆幼根蘸取滤液后对线虫J2在该区间的分布与不经处理的幼根差异显著(P <0.0 5),证明淡紫拟青霉发酵滤液可以明显地降低线虫与大豆根的亲和力,并强烈抑制线虫对大豆根的侵染。  相似文献

Summary. Oat seedlings were grown by two different methods in various concentrations of bensulide. Root growth was inhibited, the roots were sometimes curved and root hairs were often present close to the root tip. Structural features of the treated roots included epidermal cells which were greatly elongated radially; short, pitied trachcary elements differentiated close to the root tip; and occasional lesions. One of the primary effects of bensulide appears to be inhibition of root growth, though it does not completely inhibit mitosis.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Initial interactions of Striga asiatica with a susceptible host and non-host plants were examined by histological methods. Haustorial development was initiated when radicles of S. asiatica were placed in contact with host or nonhost roots. Reorganization of the S. asiatica root apical meristem was rapid and involved the formation of a distal group of cells that penetrated the host or nonhost root. Penetration of the epidermis of the host (sorghum) roots and advance into the cortex occurred within 24 to 48 h of inoculation. Penetration of the endodermis by the developing endophyte was delayed for 72 to 96 h after initial contact. However, upon penetration vascular continuity was established between parasite and host. In contrast, interactions with nonhosts provided evidence of active resistance mechanisms. Penetration of lettuce, marigold, and cowpea roots by S. asiatica was most frequently arrested in the cortex, and endophytic cells were necrotic 72 h after inoculation. Some species-specific differences were observed in the reactions of nonhosts to penetration, although in their general nature the interactions with S. asiatica were similar.  相似文献

Experiments carried out in agar culture showed that the potato cultivar Pentland Javelin is relatively resistant to infection by Verticillium dahliae because it has a multilayered cortex of thick-walled cells, each producing lignituber appositions to invading hyphae. Its thick-walled xylem vessels are difficult to penetrate, its large vessel lumens difficult to obstruct, and its ability to produce tyloses limits the spread of the fungus, By comparison. Maris Anchor roots have fewer cortical layers and very small xylem vessels which are more easily blocked by hyphae. Maris Peer is intermediate in both the number of cortical cell layers and the size of xylem vessels. Globodera pallida juveniles assist V. dahliae to evade the natural defences of the root by opening an invasion channel for the fungus. In Maris Anchor and Maris Peer, but not in Pentland Javelin, the nematode provokes a widespread hypersensitive response; the resulting cell wall lignification impedes the growth of those hyphae which invade several days after the nematode. Hyphae grow well in syncytia and this enhances the probability of their penetrating xylem vessels. Although V. dahliae is generally held to induce symptoms through xylem blockage, the phloem colonization which was noted may affect the growth of both plant and nematode through its effect on assimilate movement towards root lips and into syncytia.  相似文献

Dispersal of Phytophthora capsici and P. parasitica from point sources buried near the upper end of 74 m-long irrigation furrows was studied with three annual host crops. Furrows next to tomato were inoculated with either P. capsici or P. parasitica , while furrows next to pepper and squash were inoculated with P. capsici only. Irrigation was carried out on a 14-day cycle. Dispersal of each fungus in the water was monitored by transplants in the furrows and the incidence of infected tomato fruit along furrows. Disease gradients on roots and shoots of all hosts were also measured. Repeated irrigations dispersed P. capsici and P. parasitica up to 70 m from the source. Fruit infection increased with increasing distances downstream, suggesting an accumulation of secondary inoculum with the repeated flow of water. Conversely, gradients of disease severity on roots of tomato and pepper peaked at the source and rapidly decreased to low levels up to 32 m downstream. Fruit and root infection upstream from source was negligible. Root and crown rot in squash was highly variable, being confined to locations near the initial inoculum in some units while developing to severe levels several meters downstream in other units. Unlike the other hosts, squash petioles were in contact with the irrigation water and may have served as routes of invasion by P. capsici. Transport of inoculum from the furrow water to the roots was limited. P. capsici isolates were more virulent on tomato roots and caused a higher incidence of buckeye rot on tomato fruit than did isolates of P. parasitica.  相似文献

Quercus ilex is one of the European forest species most susceptible to root rot caused by the oomycete Phytophthora cinnamomi. This disease contributes to holm oak decline, a particularly serious problem in the ‘dehesas’ ecosystem of the southwestern Iberian Peninsula. This work describes the host–pathogen interaction of Q. ilex and P. cinnamomi, using new infection indices at the tissue level. Fine roots of 6‐month‐old saplings inoculated with P. cinnamomi were examined by light microscopy and a random pool of images was analysed in order to calculate different indices based on the measured area of pathogen structures. In the early stages of invasion, P. cinnamomi colonizes the apoplast and penetrates cortical cells with somatic structures. On reaching the parenchymatous tissues of the central cylinder, the pathogen develops different reproductive and survival structures inside the cells and then expands through the vascular system of the root. Some host responses were identified, such as cell wall thickening, accumulation of phenolic compounds in the middle lamella of sclerenchyma tissues, and mucilage secretion blocking vascular cells. New insights into the behaviour of P. cinnamomi inside fine roots are described. Host responses fail due to rapid expansion of the pathogen and a change in its behaviour from biotrophic to necrotrophic.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Phytophthora nicotianae and P. palmivora infect and cause rot of fibrous roots of susceptible and tolerant citrus rootstocks in Florida orchards. The infection and colonization by the two Phytophthora spp. of a susceptible citrus host, sour orange (Citrus aurantium), and a tolerant host, trifoliate orange (Poncirus trifoliata), were compared using light and electron microscopy. Penetration by both Phytophthora spp. occurred within 1 h after inoculation, regardless of the host species. No differences were observed in mode of penetration of the hypodermis or the hosts' response to infection. After 24 h, P. palmivora had a significantly higher colonization of cortical cells in susceptible sour orange than in tolerant trifoliate orange. Intracellular hyphae of both Phytophthora spp. were observed in the cortex of sour orange, and cortical cells adjacent to intercellular hyphae of P. palmivora were disrupted. In contrast, the cortical cells of sour orange and trifoliate orange adjacent to P. nicotianae hyphae and the cortical cells of trifoliate orange adjacent to P. palmivora were still intact. After 48 h, the cortical cells of both hosts adjacent to either Phytophthora spp. were disrupted. After 48 and 72 h, P. palmivora hyphae colonized the cortex of sour orange more extensively than the cortex of trifoliate orange; P. palmivora also colonized both hosts more extensively than P. nicotianae. A higher rate of electrolyte leakage among host-pathogen combinations reflected the combined effects of greater cell disruption by P. palmivora than by P. nicotianae, and the higher concentration of electrolytes in healthy roots of trifoliate orange than of sour orange. Although cellular responses unique to the tolerant host were not observed, reduced hyphal colonization by both pathogens in the cortex of trifoliate orange compared with sour orange is evidence for a putative resistance factor(s) in the trifoliate orange roots that inhibits the growth of Phytophthora spp.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Three hundred forty-nine fungal endophytes were obtained from a total of 1,214 root segments of eggplant, melon, barley, and Chinese cabbage grown as bait plants in a mixed soil made up of samples from different forest soils in Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. Three of the 349 isolates, when inoculated in axenically reared Chinese cabbage seedlings grown in petri dishes, almost completely suppressed the effects of a postinoculated and virulent strain of Verticillium longisporum. Two isolates effective against the pathogen were Phialocephala fortinii, which had been obtained from the roots of eggplant and Chinese cabbage. The third isolate was a dark septate endophytic (DSE) fungus obtained from barley roots. Hyphae of P. fortinii grew along the surface of the root and formed microsclerotia on or in the epidermal layer. Hyphae of the DSE fungus heavily colonized root cells of the cortex. Seedlings grown for 1 week in the presence of the endophytes were then challenged with the Verticillium pathogen. In DSE-treated roots, some of cell walls in the epidermal and cortical layers showed cell wall appositions and thickenings, which appeared to limit the ingress of the pathogen into adjacent cells. Such marked host reactions were not observed in the root cells colonized by P. fortinii. Chinese cabbage preinoculated with the above endophytes and, for comparison, a previously reported disease-suppressive fungal endophyte, Heteroconium chaetospira, were transplanted into the field and disease symptoms were assessed. The DSE could most effectively inhibit the development of Verticillium yellows, with reductions in the percentages of external and internal disease symptoms of 84 and 88%, respectively. The protective values against the disease are extremely high compared with those of other isolates. Most of the DSE-treated plants in the plots achieved marketable quality.  相似文献
