SummaryA leaf curl disease was observed on croton (Codiaeum variegatum L.), a popular ornamental plant in botanical, home, and office gardens in and around Bengaluru, South India. Diseased plants showed typical symptoms of vein thickening, severe inward curling and a reduction in leaf size, and stunting. The pathogen responsible was transmitted to healthy croton plants by grafting of infected scions, and through the whitefly vector, Bemisia tabaci, suggesting that the disease was caused by a begomovirus. The association of a begomovirus with the disease was further confirmed by the amplification of viral DNA fragments of ca. 520 bp and 575 bp derived from the coat protein (CP) gene of DNA-A using degenerate primers and total DNA extracted from infected, but not from healthy croton plants. The 575 bp fragment corresponding to the core region of the CP gene was cloned and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis of the core CP sequence grouped the croton-infecting begomovirus, which we tentatively called croton leaf curl virus (CrLCuV), with Ageratum yellow vein virus (AJ810825), with which it shared the highest nucleotide identity (95%). The core CP sequence was similar (90 – 95%) to many other begomoviruses from the Indian sub-continent that infect tomato, tobacco, cotton, and papaya. Thus, its precise taxonomic denomination will require sequencing of the complete ssDNA viral genome. 相似文献

During the breeding programs for Plum pox virus (PPV, Sharka) resistance in Prunus, the evaluation of the new releases through symptoms observation on leaves has been contradictory and represents one of the main handicaps in these programs. In order to increase the accuracy of this traditional evaluation method, we here analyze an alternative method based on the study of the ability of a genotype to allow the long-distance movement of the virus through its vascular vessels. Two different plant models have been assayed: (a) in Model I, the inoculation was performed in the ‘GF305’ rootstock with a later grafting of the genotype under evaluation and a scion of healthy control ‘GF305’, to evaluate the long-distance movement through the studied genotype from the rootstock to the scion (xylem transport), and (b) in Model II, the inoculation with ‘GF305’ diseased scions was performed by grafting these diseased scions onto the studied genotypes, which were grafted onto healthy ‘GF305’ peach seedlings, to evaluate the long-distance movement through the studied genotype from the scion to the rootstock (phloem transport). The results show that, regardless of the presence of symptoms, susceptible genotypes allowed the movement of the virus through their vascular vessels in both directions studied. However, the resistant apricot ‘Stark Early Orange’ did not allow this movement. We propose the study of the ability of a genotype to allow the long-distance movement of the virus as an alternative and more accurate method for the evaluation of PPV resistance. However, this protocol is much more tedious than the traditional one and could be used mainly in the evaluation of a reduced number of more interesting genotypes. 相似文献

In this study we compare the evaluation of Plum pox virus (Sharka) resistance of 29 apricot genotypes in controlled greenhouse conditions by grafting onto infected ‘GF305’ peach seedlings growing in pots, and in natural conditions by grafting onto infected 5-year-old apricot trees growing in the orchard. Apricot genotypes evaluated were initially classified into three groups: susceptible to PPV (presence of PPV symptoms and ELISA positive in greenhouse and field assays), resistant (absence of PPV symptoms and ELISA negative in both assays) and undetermined (evaluated differently in both assays). Results showed a similar behavior against Plum pox virus in both assays in 20 out of the 29 apricot genotypes studied (69%). However, in the other nine genotypes results were different (31%). Evaluation in field was more accurate, detecting a higher number of susceptible genotypes, probably due to the higher inoculation pressure in the old trees in comparison with the GF305 rootstocks in pots. However, greenhouse evaluation let to work in controlled isolated conditions with a higher number of genotypes. This situation is greatly required in areas where Sharka is not widely spread. Greenhouse evaluation could be then the first screening method to evaluate Plum pox virus resistance of apricot genotypes, and could be complemented with the evaluation onto infected trees in natural conditions in insect-proof quarantine shelter. 相似文献

SummaryThe susceptibility of 1103 peach genotypes (738 dessert peach, 168 clingstone, 197 nectarines) and 152 unselected seedlings to leaf curl (Taphrina deformans) was assessed. No cultivars rated zero, which is equivalent to immunity, only six rated 1, while 62% had the highest susceptibility rating 5. Presence or absence of leaf glands and fruit type were not correlated to resistance or susceptibility. The distribution of the different fruit type and the unselected seedlings over the various susceptibility categories indicates a loss of resistance to leaf curl during selection for improved agronomic characters. 相似文献

Almond [Prunus amygdalus Batsch syn. Prunus dulcis (Mill.) D.A.Webb] trees are either self- or cross-incompatible, which results in lower fruit set and yields. Flower bagging, fluorescence microscopy, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were used to discriminate between self-compatible genotypes obtained from crosses of the self-incompatible female parents (‘121’ and ‘4’) with the self-compatible male parent (‘Tuono’). This study was performed on 80 almond genotypes. The results of this study showed that, in the first cross (‘121’ × ‘Tuono’), genotypes 5, 11, 13, 14, 17, 20, 27, 29, 31, 35, and 38 were identified as being self-compatible and, in the second cross (‘4’ × ‘Tuono’), genotypes 1, 2, 10, 11, 12, 15, 21, 23, 25, 32, 37, 38, and 40 were found to be self-compatible. There were some promising genotypes based on self-compatibility and nut and kernel characteristics; for example, genotype 40 had the highest mean fruit and kernel weights at 2.9 and 1.3 g, respectively. PCR can be used to identify self-compatible genotypes at the juvenile stage. Flower bagging under favourable climatic conditions not only discriminated between self-compatible almond genotypes, but can also be used to measure fruit set percentages. Flower bagging and fluorescence microscopy can be used to determine the level of self-incompatibility. Fluorescence microscopy identified self-incompatible genotypes, even under unfavourable conditions. In general, a combination of all three methods is recommended to increase the accuracy of detecting self-compatible genotypes of almond. 相似文献

The effects of salinity on nitrogen compounds were studied in three tomato (L. esc- ulentum Mill.) genotypes of different salt tolerance. The plants were grown under controlled conditions, and the salt treatments (0, 70 and 140 raM NaCl) were applied for three (Harvest 1) and ten (Harvest 2) weeks. The effects of salinity on total N and particularly N03 concentrations depended partly on the NaCl level and duration of the stress, but mainly on the different degrees of salt tolerance of the genotypes. In Harvest 1, the most tolerant genotype (GC-72) showed the highest N03 increase in the roots and no decreases in stem and leaf with increasing salinity; the intermediate-tolerant genotype (P-73) showed a similar response to that of GC-72 only at 70 mM NaCl. However, the most sensitive genotype (Volgogradskij) showed the greatest reductions in stem and leaf N03 concentrations with salinity. With longer durations of stress the different responses between the more tolerant genotypes were less evident; only Volgogradskij continued to show the highest decreases in stem and leaf N03 concentrations. A restriction of N03 transport from the root to the shoot was noted in the plants of the more tolerant genotypes treated for three weeks. This capacity for retention disappeared when the salinity induced reductions in the total N03 contents in the plants, as in the harvest 2. There was an inverse relation between N03 and Cl accumulations in shoots of all genotypes and its slope decreased with the salt sensitivity of the genotype. There was no relation between the leaf protein content and the salt tolerance of the tomato genotypes. In Harvest 1, a higher accumulation of amino acids, especially proline, was found in the leaves of the more tolerant genotypes at 140 mM NaCl. However, in Harvest 2, a similar accumulation of leaf proline was found in all genotypes, independent of their salt tolerances, and the other amino acid contents remained similar or else decreased with salinity. 相似文献

India is one of the world’s largest producers of papaya. Viruses, mainly begomoviruses and potyviruses, cause a significant loss in papaya production. The study described here has identified a new species of begomovirus and a new species of betasatellite infecting Carica papaya in India. The sequences of the begomovirus and betasatellite show 90.03% nucleotide sequence identity to an isolate of Radish leaf curl virus and 92.25% identity to an isolate of Tomato leaf curl betasatellite, respectively. Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree of begomovirus sequence of isolate DP2 (KX353622) showed distant relationships with previously characterised begomoviruses. Recombination analysis proposed six recombination breakpoints in begomovirus genome with other geographical begomovirus isolates. 相似文献

SummaryGreenhouse experiments were carried out to study the effect of drought stress on morphological and physiological parameters of Pelargonium hortorum, to define the most sensitive indicators that could be used to evaluate genotypes for tolerance to water stress. Nine genotypes of P. hortorum and two genotypes of the parental species (P. inquinans L. and P. zonale L.) were examined. Drought stress was induced by withholding water until the soil water potential reached –80 kPa, followed by recovery and applying another drought stress cycle. Growth decreased with drought stress with regard to all parameters and all genotypes, compared to well-watered plants. Production and loss of leaves were sensitive indicators of drought stress to discriminate between genotypes. A classification of genotypes was obtained from these parameters. Changes in leaf area, the density of stomata (mm–2 or per leaf), leaf water content and leaf cell osmolarity during the drought cycle and after recovery were also studied. Changes in stomata mm–2, leaf surface and cell osmolarity were found to be sensitive indicators of drought stress. Correlations between different parameters made it possible to obtain a robust classification of genotypes using only a few parameters. Significant variation was found between genotypes of P. hortorum in their response to drought stress.The different mechanisms which can be used by tolerant genotypes to adapt to drought stress are discussed. The present study provides a simple method to evaluate and select for water stress-tolerance in P. hortorum genotypes. 相似文献

The genetics of resistance to tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) were studied in TYLCV-resistant lines developed by crossing wild species of Lycopersicon pimpinellifolium, L. hirsutum and L. peruvianum resistant to TYLCV with susceptible L. esculentum cv. Special Back. Crosses between TYLCV-resistant lines derived from the same wild species produced progenies similar to their parents in their level of resistance. However, progenies from interspecific crosses showed greater resistance than either parent suggesting that the genes for TYLCV resistance contributed by different wild species are probably not the same (non-allelic). The gene action for TYLCV resistance also varied with the source of resistance. Analysis of F1, F2 and BC populations for lines derived from L. pimpinellifolium showed that resistance to TYLCV in these lines is a quantitative trait with some dominance. 相似文献

Self-compatibility was assessed in 19 almond selections by genetic and physiological means, such as PCR with specific primers for the Sf allele, pollen tube growth, and fruit set after self-pollination and in bagged branches. Although all genotypes possessed the Sf allele and showed a similar pollen tube growth after self-pollination than after cross-pollination with cross-compatible pollen, fruit sets showed a different behaviour between years, ranging from 16.2 to 24.7%, as well as between treatments, with the highest after self-pollination. The differences between genotypes could be due to the genetic constitution of each genotype, where inbreeding may reduce set by the accumulation of deleterious genes in different members of a progeny. Flower morphology may also affect sets in bagged branches. Thus, in addition to bud density, flower sterility, pollination success and environmental conditions, other traits must be taken into account when evaluating yield in self-compatible almond cultivars, such as the inbreeding effect and the effective autonomous self-pollination. 相似文献

The adaptation to drought stress of two African nightshade species, Solanum villosum and S. sarrachoides was investigated in pot and field experiments between 2000 and 2002. Two genotypes of S. villosum (landrace and commercial) and one accession of S. sarrachoides were grown under droughted, moderate stress and well-watered conditions. Leaf expansion, stem elongation and transpiration began to decline early in the drying cycle with fraction of transpirable soil water (FTSW) thresholds of 0.46–0.64. Osmotic adjustment (OA) of both species was in the range of 0.16–0.19 MPa and could not maintain positive turgor below water potentials of −1.80 to −2.04 MPa. The responses evaluated were similar in the three genotypes suggesting similar strategies of adaptation to drought stress. Under field conditions, the S. sarrachoides accession showed a higher leaf area than the S. villosum commercial genotype. It is concluded that the three African nightshade genotypes have limited OA capacity and adapt to drought mainly by regulating transpiration. This was achieved by reduction of leaf area. In general, it is necessary to maintain FTSW above 0.5–0.6 to prevent decline in leaf expansion, stem elongation, and transpiration. 相似文献

SummarySoil solarization and grafting onto a resistant tomato rootstock (‘Brigeor F1‘), and the integrated use of both methods were evaluated in four field trials carried out in Cyprus, for management of soil-borne pathogens and pests of eggplant. Soil solarization was highly effective against Verticillium wilt (V. dahliae) but only partially effective against corky root rot (Pyrenochaeta lycopersici) and root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.); it also controlled adequately most annual weeds. By contrast, grafting provided complete protection from corky root rot and root-knot, but only partial protection from Verticillium wilt. Complete resistance to nematodes, however, occurred only in trials with greenhouse-grown (winter) crops. In open-field (summer) crops, about 50% of the grafted plants sustained slight nematode infection, apparently because of breakdown of resistance at high soil temperatures. Solarization, or grafting gave significant yield increases over that of the untreated check. However, a combination of both was much more effective than either alone. Together, they provided complete protection from all three diseases. Most importantly, they had an additive effect on yield, resulting in a significant increase over that obtained by either method alone. The average yield (kg plant-1) obtained in two greenhouse trials was 9002E5 for the control, 16.1 for grafting alone, 14.1 for solarization alone and 20.2 for the combination of the two methods. The integrated use of solarization and grafting appears to be a sustainable alternative to methyl bromide fumigation. 相似文献

Simple, accurate and non-destructive models determining leaf area of plants are important for many experimental comparisons. Determining the individual leaf area (LA) of hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) involves measurements of leaf parameters, such as length (L) and width (W), or some combinations of these parameters. Two-year investigation was carried out during 2005 (on 20 genotypes) and 2006 (on one cultivar) under open field conditions, respectively, to test whether a model could be developed to estimate leaf area across genotypes and environments. Regression analyses of LA versus L and W revealed several models that could be used for estimating the area of individual hazelnut leaves. A linear model having LW as the independent variable (LA = 2.59 + 0.74LW) provided the most accurate estimate (R2 = 0.982, MSE = 29) of hazelnut LA. Validation of the model having LW of leaves measured in the 2006 experiment coming from other genotype grown under different environmental conditions showed that the correlation between calculated and measured areas was very high. 相似文献

This work aimed to characterise Moringa oleifera (Mo) and Moringa peregrina (Mp), grown in Saudi Arabia, based on nutritional and molecular markers. Seven genotypes per species were evaluated using 1-year-old trees. The nutritional characterisation included chlorophyll, protein, macronutrients, micronutrients, and heavy metals. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) was applied using nine primers for genetic characterisation. Significant differences in nutritional content were found between the two species and among the genotypes of each species. Mp had more chlorophyll content, however Mo contained higher protein, Fe and Zn. Correlations among nutritional characteristics allowed representative classification of genotypes based on these pertinent indicators only. Cluster analysis separated the genotypes of each species in independent group, but three Mo genotypes and two Mp genotypes were distinguished for their variability in nutritional properties. Most Mo genotypes amplified the nine SSR primers, however 6/9 primers only produced bands in Mp genotypes. The number of amplified primers per Mp genotype varied from zero to six. A strong relationship was found between nutritional and molecular classifications of genotypes. The efficient classification based on four chemical characteristics could be beneficial for Moringa evaluation. The correlation between genetic and nutritional variability could serve in improving Moringa and identifying genetic criteria. 相似文献

This study aimed to evaluate in vitro grafting of Theobroma cacao where seedlings of the UF 677 genotype were used as the rootstock and apices or axillary buds of a Trinitarian genotype were used as scion. Three methods of grafting using scions from seedlings were evaluated. Apical grafts using apex and side grafts using apex displayed better graft success (95 and 80%, respectively). However, side grafts using axillary buds reached a greater height on average and a higher number of leaves per plant (1.76 cm and 3.72, respectively). Histological studies revealed new vascular elements at the graft union area. Side grafts with axillary buds provided the highest survival rate (82%) after the acclimatization step. A shoot of at least 1 cm with two leaves is required for plant survival after transfer to ex vitro conditions. Side grafting was carried out with axillary buds from adult trees and nursery plants. Only the grafts with buds from nursery grafted plants were successful, with a rate of 26%. Overall, side grafting with axillary buds is the most appropriate method for cacao micrografting. This method can be used for clonal propagation and for the establishment of in vivo and/or in vitro cacao germplasm collection. 相似文献
