Rice blast is the most serious disease threat to rice production worldwide. It is difficult to control due to the complex diversity and wide geographic distribution of the causal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae. In Australia, rice blast occurs in northern Australia but remains exotic to the main south-eastern rice growing area; however, there is the potential for rice blast to threaten this area; in addition, rice production is currently expanding from south-eastern Australia into northern Australia, which makes rice blast a major concern and challenge to rice industry in Australia. Prior to this study, there was lack of information on the race status of M. oryzae present in Australia and on how to manage the disease through host resistance. The races of rice blast isolates collected in northern Australia was characterised based on the disease reactions of eight standard rice differentials used in an international race differential system. The following studies revealed genes conferring resistance to these races through investigating the responses of 25 monogenic rice lines with targeted resistance gene against different races. The rice blast isolates were characterised into five races: IA-1, IA-3, IA-63, IB-3 and IB-59. Genes Pi40, Piz-t, Pi9, Pi5(t) and Pi12(t) exhibited resistance to all the isolates belonging to five races. In addition, two genes showed complete resistance to multiple races, viz. Pi9 that showed complete resistance to races IA-1, IA-3, IA-63 and IB-3 and Pita2 that had complete resistance to races IA-3, IB-3 and IB-59. This study provides information about the races of M. oryzae in Australia. Genes identified conferring resistance to multiple races will not only streamline the identification via molecular markers of imported rice varieties with resistance to rice blast in Australia, but will also allow the Australian rice breeding program to develop new varieties with broad-spectrum resistance to rice blast and pyramid multi-gene resistance into Australian rice varieties.  相似文献

Rice blast, caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, is one of the most devastating diseases of rice (Oryza sativa L.), and neck blast is the most destructive phase of this disease. Although neck blast causes tremendous yield loss, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying the neck blast resistance. To address this issue, we collected 358 rice varieties from different ecotypes in China and assessed them for the neck blast resistance under natural conditions favoring disease development in Jining, Shandong Province. Our results showed that 124 (34.6%) and 234 (65.4%) varieties were resistant and susceptible to M. oryzae under natural field conditions, respectively. Among the 358 rice varieties that were screened for the presence of 13 major blast resistance (R) genes against M. oryzae by using functional markers, 259 varieties contained one to seven R genes. In addition, the relationship between the presence of R genes and the disease reactions was also investigated by integrative analysis of phenotyping and genotyping based on functional markers. Our results showed that the rice blast resistance gene Pi2 was significantly correlated with neck blast resistance. Furthermore, any of the 13 major blast R genes was absent from 32 rice varieties exhibited obvious neck blast resistance, which would be the potential materials for identifying novel neck blast R genes. Taken together, our findings provide insight into the distribution of the 13 major blast R genes in the tested Chinese rice germplasm resources, which will serve as a basis for developing rice blast resistant. Furthermore, 32 rice varieties exhibited neck blast resistance, but they did not harbor any of the 13 major blast R genes. In the future, these varieties may be used to identify novel neck blast R genes.  相似文献

Pyricularia oryzae (rice blast) conidial development at pre-penetration stage determines success or otherwise of infection inside the rice host plants. Studies on conidial germination and growth on the leaf surface in commercial rice (Oryza sativa) report differently, dependent upon host type and level of blast resistance. Although wild rice (O. australiensis) is known to be an alternative host of blast, the interaction between P. oryzae conidia and wild O. australiensis on its leaf surface has not been previously studied. We found significant (P?<?0.001) differences in conidial development between two blast isolates with different virulence in terms of conidial germination, germ tube growth and appressoria formation on both wild and cultivated rice. Conidial germination at 6 h post-inoculation (hpi) for the virulent isolate was significantly (P?<?0.001) delayed. Germ tubes of the avirulent isolate conidia grew significantly (P?<?0.001) faster and with significantly (P?<?0.001) longer germ tubes than from virulent conidia. Appressoria development for the virulent isolate was significantly (P?<?0.001) faster at its later growth stages of 12 and 18 hpi when approximately 100% of germ tubes formed appressoria. In contrast, formation rate of appressoria for the avirulent isolate was significantly (P?<?0.001) slower and only reached 76% of germ tubes forming appressoria. Appressoria formation on O. australiensis was significantly (P?<?0.001) greater than the formation on O. sativa for both virulent and avirulent P. oryzae at 12 hpi, a clear indication that host type influences the extent of appressoria formation.  相似文献

Rice blast is a devastating fungal disease resulting in major losses to rice crops. Owing to continuous acquisition of resistance by the causal fungus, several fungicide chemicals are no longer effective. Therefore, there is a need to identify natural components and develop new agents to control fungal pathogens. We previously demonstrated that the culture filtrate of Biscogniauxia sp. O821 inhibited infection behavior of Magnaporthe oryzae and subsequent blast lesion formation. In the present study, we isolated a new compound, (3aS,4aR,8aS,9aR)-3a-hydroxy-8a-methyl-3,5-dimethylenedecahydronaphto[2,3-b]furan-2(3H)-one (HDFO), from the culture filtrate of Biscogniauxia sp. O821 and determined its molecular weight as 248. The HDFO structure was determined by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy after purification with column chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography. The structure of this antifungal compound was similar to that of alantolactone and isoalantolactone. The growth inhibition zone against M. oryzae in presence of HDFO was observed at Rf 0.5–0.6 on a thin layer chromatography plate. HDFO inhibited conidial germination of M. oryzae in a dose-dependent manner (1–200 ppm). Furthermore, blast lesion formation was significantly suppressed by HDFO at over 5 ppm. These results suggest that HDFO from the culture filtrate of Biscogniauxia sp. O821 can protect rice from rice blast disease caused by M. oryzae. This is the first report that HDFO produced by Biscogniauxia sp. can serve as an antifungal compound against M. oryzae.  相似文献

Rice production is currently expanding from the south-eastern regions of Australia into northern Australia where indigenous species of wild rice occur widely. A survey of fungal diseases on wild (Oryza australiensis, Oryza spp.) and cultivated rice (Oryza sativa) in North Queensland, Australia, in May 2014 revealed a diverse range of fungal genera species, including important pathogens of cultivated rice. Whilst a single isolate of Magnaporthe oryzae (causal agent of rice blast) was obtained from wild rice, Bipolaris oryzae (causal agent of brown spot) was the predominant pathogen detected under North Queensland conditions. For the first time for Australia, we report Rhizoctonia oryzae-sativae (causal agent of aggregate sheath spot) occurring on wild rice. Other pathogens detected on wild rice included Curvularia lunata, Cochliobolus intermedius, Cochliobolus geniculatus, and Fusarium equiseti present in the majority of wild rice samples. Nearby cultivated rice fields harboured additional pathogens not found in wild rice including Fusarium graminearum, Leptosphaeria spegazzinii and Cochliobolus lunatus, causing scab disease, glume blight and leaf blight, respectively. We also confirmed that Bipolaris oryzae from wild rice can infect cultivated rice. This study highlights the importance of wild rice species as alternative hosts harbouring pathogens of cultivated rice and the likely disease threats to expansion of cultivated rice into the same region(s) where wild rice is endemic.  相似文献

Fungicides are the preferred rice blast (Pyricularia oryzae) control option by farmers. However, no fungicides are yet registered for this purpose in Australia. Hence, it is important to test the baseline sensitivity of P. oryzae isolates collected from blast-affected regions across northern Australia, which have not yet been exposed to the fungicides, as part of a resistance management strategy. Further, it is also important to investigate and compare effect of application timing of fungicides on conidial development, including germination and germ tube growth, and penetration on susceptible rice. The EC50 of a collection of fungicide-sensitive blast isolates were within the range of 0.02–2.02 and 0.06–1.91 mg L?1 for azoxystrobin and propiconazole, respectively. Azoxystrobin was shown to have greater inhibitory effect on conidial germination than propiconazole. In addition, for pre-inoculation application, only germ tubes in the presence of external nutrients continued to grow from 24 to 48 hpi. On susceptible seedlings, both fungicides completely controlled blast disease when applied the same day as inoculation. However, for pre- or post-inoculation application of fungicide, the extent of disease control was reduced, with azoxystrobin more efficacious than propiconazole. A stimulatory effect of both fungicides at low dose was observed on certain P. oryzae isolates. This is the first study to assess the baseline sensitivity of the P. oryzae population in Australia and the first to report a stimulatory effect of low azoxystrobin concentration on growth of P. oryzae. The study highlights, for the first time, the critical role of external nutrients in promoting germ tube growth under fungicide stress conditions. Lastly, it demonstrates the high degree of efficacy of the fungicides and their potential for future rice blast management in Australia.  相似文献

Plant volatile compounds, including terpenes, are known to be involved in the rice defense system. In the present analysis of a terpene synthase, OsTPS18, in rice, we found that OsTPS18 was localized in the cytoplasm and synthesized the sesquiterpenes (E)-nerolidol and (E)-β-farnesene. The amounts of (E)-nerolidol and (E)-β-farnesene increased after jasmonic acid (JA) treatment. (E)-Nerolidol had significant antibacterial activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). These results suggest that (E)-nerolidol plays an important role in JA-induced resistance against Xoo and that it functions as an antibacterial compound in rice.  相似文献

The virulence spectrum of 300 isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), representing 17 districts of Punjab, Pakistan was elucidated through inoculation on a set of six rice IRRI-differentials. The virulence level was assessed by using principal component and cluster analysis. Among six principal components (PCs), PC-1 exhibited 59.3 % of the total variance. The highly virulent isolates clusters on the positive side of the ordination away from the point of intersection of PC1 and PC2 and classifies the Xoo isolates from slow disease to the highest disease causing entities. The 300 isolates were categorized into 29 pathotypes (Pt1-29) wherein the highly virulent pathotype (Pt-1), comprises of 39 Xoo isolates were widespread in 12 districts. The majority of Xoo isolates were moderately to least virulent (21.7–43 %) and average disease progress curves confirmed the field reactions of these pathotype clusters for an efficient recognition of Xoo isolates. Interaction of the pathogen with differentials harboring different resistant genes was well investigated in the current study for future management approaches for which the surveillance of the new Xoo pathotypes may expedite the disease resistant rice breeding programme in the country.  相似文献

The rice blast fungus Pyricularia oryzae mainly overwinters in infested rice organs stored indoors, whereas it is difficult or impossible for the pathogen to overwinter outdoors. By contrast, blast pathogens infecting weed grasses must overwinter outdoors every winter to continue their life cycle. In this study, we investigated the overwintering location of P. oryzae infecting wild, green, and giant foxtails to identify the mechanism that enables them to overwinter. Recovery of P. oryzae was tested in seeds of wild foxtail collected from the soil surface from December to April over three winters. No P. oryzae was recovered from the seed samples of any wild foxtail collected at the ends of the three experimental periods in April. Recovery was also tested from blast lesions on leaves and seeds sampled from withered green foxtail in the experimental field of Saga University from November to April during two winters. In contrast to seeds on the soil surface, P. oryzae survived in lesions and seeds at the ends of the two experimental periods during April, suggesting that withered host plants could be the overwintering site of the pathogen. Rice plants are reaped and removed from paddy fields after harvesting. Thus, withered, standing plants may be available solely to blast pathogens infecting wild grasses, possibly explaining the higher winter survival frequency of weed pathogens than that of rice blast pathogens outdoors.  相似文献

An ethyl acetate extract of a culture filtrate (ECF) from an unidentified fungal isolate O821 was evaluated for antifungal activity against the rice pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae. The O821-ECF significantly inhibited spore germination, appressorium formation, and mycelial growth of M. oryzae, and its antifungal activity was heat-stable. It also significantly suppressed the number and size of blast lesions. In an analysis of the ITS sequence of this isolate, it shared similarities with species of the fungus Biscogniauxia. These results suggest that isolate O821 of the genus Biscogniauxia produces a heat-stable antifungal compound(s) in its culture filtrate.  相似文献

In the present study, the effect of red light on the infection behavior of Bipolaris oryzae on rice leaves and the effects of chemical inhibitors and spore germination fluid (SGF) of B. oryzae on red-light-induced resistance against brown spot disease were investigated. Red light irradiation and natural light did not differ significantly with respect to their effect on spore germination and appressorium formation of B. oryzae 24 h after inoculation. However, formation of infection hyphae was significantly inhibited under red light compared to that under natural light. Pretreatment with the photosynthetic inhibitor 3-(3,4-dichorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (DCMU) or with the aromatic amino acid inhibitor N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine (glyphosate) for 24 h inhibited the development of resistance in rice leaves. To elucidate the elicitor(s) produced during the B. oryzae–rice plant interaction, the effect of SGF prepared in the absence (A-SGF) or presence (P-SGF) of rice leaves on red-light-induced resistance was investigated. When rice plants were pretreated with A-SGF or P-SGF for 24 h, P-SGF had elicitor activity under red light, but not under natural light or with A-SGF. These results suggest that germinating spore of B. oryzae produced an elicitor(s) under red light conditions in a host-dependent manner. In conclusion, we hypothesize that an unidentified elicitor(s) produced at an early stage of fungal infection during the B. oryzae–rice interaction contributes to the inhibition of cell death in rice leaves under red light and enhances resistance-related tryptophan and phenylpropanoid pathways.  相似文献

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in plant growth, development and responses to stresses. Rice blast is one of the most devastating diseases in rice production. However, little is known regarding the effects of miRNAs response to rice blast. Herein, by deep sequencing small RNA from the susceptible line ZhongerRuanzhan and its space-induced blast resistant mutant line H4 under normal conditions and upon Magnaporthe oryzae (M. orzyzae) infection, several known miRNAs were detected and their expression profiles were found to be negatively correlated with their targets. And, a total of 50 novel miRNAs induced by M. oryzae infection were also identified from four small RNA libraries. Moreover, 176 putative targets of 23 novel miRNAs, which are involved in the various functions, were validated by two degradome analysis. Six novel miRNAs were selected for further validation with qRT-PCR analysis and the results showed that their expression levels were associated with blast response. The knowledge obtained in this study will help us understanding the functions of miRNAs and their targets in regulating blast resistance.  相似文献

Bacterial blight (BB) of rice caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), remains a major production constraint in rice cultivation especially in irrigated and rainfed lowland ecosystems in India. The pathogen is highly dynamic in nature and knowledge on pathotype composition among the Xoo population is imperative for designing a scientific resistance breeding program. In this study, four hundred isolates of Xoo collected from diverse rice growing regions of India were analyzed for their virulence and genetic composition. Virulence profiling was carried out on a set of differentials consisting of 22 near isogenic lines (NILs) of IR24 possessing different BB resistance genes and their combinations along with the checks. It was observed that different NILs possessing single BB resistance gene were susceptible to about 59–94% of the Xoo isolates except IRBB 13 (containing BB resistance gene xa13), which showed susceptibility to about 35% of the isolates. Based on the reaction of the Xoo isolates on the differentials, they were categorized into 22 pathotypes. Among the 22 pathotypes, IXoPt-1 and IXoPt-2 were least virulent and IXoPt # 18–22 were highly virulent. Pathotype IXoPt-19 which was virulent on all single BB resistance genes except xa13 constituted the major pathotype (22.5% isolates) and was widely distributed throughout India (16 states). This was followed by pathotype IXoPt-22 (17.25%) which was virulent on all the NILs possessing single BB resistance genes. Molecular analysis was carried out using two outwardly directed primers complementary to sequence of IS1112, a repetitive element of Xoo. A high level of genetic polymorphism was detected among these isolates and the isolates were grouped into 12 major clusters. The data indicated complex nature of evolution of the Xoo pathotypes and there was no strong correlation between pathotypes and genetic clusters as each genetic cluster was composed of Xoo isolates belonging to different pathotypes. The study indicated that none of the single BB resistance genes can provide broad spectrum resistance in India. However, two-gene combinations like xa5 + xa13 and different 3 or 4 genes combination like Xa4 + xa5 + xa13, Xa4 + xa13 + Xa21, xa5 + xa13 + Xa21 and Xa4 + xa5 + xa13 + Xa21 are broadly effective throughout India.  相似文献

Tomato leaves showing severe leaf spot symptoms have been observed and sampled in the central west and southwest Taiwan during 2015 and 2016. The symptoms were similar to those of bacterial leaf spot/late blight diseases, but only Stemphylium-like fungi were consistently isolated from the diseased tomato. Upon spray inoculation of tomato, Stemphylium-like isolates caused leaf spot symptoms identical to those of naturally infected plants, and the pathogenic isolates were successfully re-isolated from inoculated leaves. The tomato-pathogenic isolates were identified as S. lycopersici based on morphological characterization and molecular identification. S. lycopersici has been previously reported to cause gray leaf spot of tomato in the temperate regions, but the majority of S. lycopersici-caused lesions were black/dark brown rather than gray in our surveillance. Accordingly, it is suggested that S. lycopersici-caused disease of tomato is named Stemphylium leaf spot of tomato more appropriately than tomato gray leaf spot. Moreover, S. lycopersici-caused leaf spot disease on tomato has been distributed in major tomato production regions in Taiwan. The information provided by our study will be important for future breeding of tomato cultivars, especially for tomato producers in Taiwan.  相似文献

Appressorium differentiation, one of the most important steps in pathogenesis by the rice blast fungus, Pyricularia oryzae, is strongly coordinated with the cell cycle. In this study, we identified an ortholog gene of 53BP1, which encodes a signal transducer protein that participates in G2-M cell cycle checkpoint in higher eukaryotes, in the genome of P. oryzae and characterized the phenotype of deletion and overexpression mutants. Deletion mutants showed no significant deficiency in vegetative growth compared to wild-type and complemented strains, even on the media containing DNA-damaging agents. However, these null mutants had abnormal appressoria and formed more appressoria per conidium than in the wild type and were unable to penetrate the epidermis of rice leaves. eGFP-fused Mop53BP1 and qRT-PCR analyses revealed that Mop53BP1 is expressed during the first hours of appressorium formation. In addition, in overexpression mutants, Mop53BP1 localized to nuclei during all stages of appressorium maturation and penetration, and the mutants were resistant to the microtubule inhibitor benomyl, suggesting that Mop53BP1 is nuclear protein and may have some role related to microtubules.  相似文献

Native Trichoderma spp. were isolated from agricultural fields in several regions of Ecuador. These isolates were characterized via morphological observation as well as molecular phylogenetic analysis based on DNA sequences of the rDNA internal transcribed spacer region, elongation factor-1α gene and RNA polymerase subunit II gene. Fifteen native Trichoderma spp. were identified as T. harzianum, T. asperellum, T. virens and T. reesei. Some of these strains showed strong antagonistic activities against several important pathogens in Ecuador, such as Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Panama disease) and Mycosphaerella fijiensis (black Sigatoka) on banana, as well as Moniliophthora roreri (frosty pod rot) and Moniliophthora perniciosa (witches’ broom disease) on cacao. The isolates also showed inhibitory effects on in vitro colony growth tests against Japanese isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici, Alternaria alternata and Rosellinia necatrix. The native Trichoderma strains characterized here are potential biocontrol agents against important pathogens of banana and cacao in Ecuador.  相似文献

The toxins produced by Rhizoctonia solani are important causal agents of rice sheath blight. Effective detection of such toxins could improve the determination of the virulence of this agronomically important fungal pathogen. As such, the objective of the current study was to investigate the use of a variety of plant species [annual sowthistle (Sonchus oleraceus L.), Chinese cabbage (Brassica chinensis), spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.), lettuce (Lactuca sativa L. var. sativa), long leaf lettuce (Lactuca sativa var. ramosa Hort) and tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum)] for qualitative detection of R. solani crude toxins (RHCT) to replace the current rice leaf sheath based assay. This is constrained as rice plant takes long time to grow before the leaf sheath can be harvested From the initial screen, it was found that detached lettuce leaves provided the best alternative to rice material. Quantitative determination of RHCT activity by the phosphorus extravasation method was then performed on both rice (Oryza sativa L.) and lettuce. The results demonstrated that the detached lettuce leaves had the advantages of fast onset of symptoms, high sensitivity and non-perishability after inoculation. The quantity of phosphorus exosmosis observed in both lettuce leaves and rice leaf sheaths were significantly positively correlated. These data indicate that lettuce leaves can be used as a substitute material for rice leaf sheaths, with which to study the RHCT both qualitatively and quantitatively. The current study provides a new way to qualitatively and quantitatively detect RHCT.  相似文献

In this study, a total of 550 cultivable bacterial isolates were isolated from rhizosphere and endorhiza of rice, Berseem clover, and oilseed rape grown in rotation with each other. The potential of antifungal activity of all isolates against five rice pathogenic fungi was investigated under in vitro conditions. Of 550 isolates, 139 inhibited the mycelial growth of at least one fungal rice pathogen. The results also showed that rhizosphere and endorhiza of every third plant (three studied plants) harbored the bacteria (139 isolates) with good potential for inhibiting fungal rice pathogens in vitro. Based on biochemical tests and by comparison of 16S rDNA sequences, of the superiors six endophytic and rhizosphere isolates, which showed strong inhibitory effects against the mycelial growth of all the five fungal rice pathogens (Magnaporthe oryzae, M. salvinii, Fusarium verticillioides, F. fujikuroi, and F. proliferum), were identified. Two isolates REN4 and CEN2, isolate CEN6, isolate CEN3, and two isolates REN3 and CEN5 were closely related to Bacillus mojavensis, B. amyloliquefaciens, B. subtilis, and B. cereus respectively. Strains REN4 and REN3 were obtained from rhizosphere and endorhiza of rice, while strains CEN6 and CEN2, and strains CEN5 and CEN3 were isolated from rhizosphere and endorhiza of clover and oilseed rape respectively. Therefore, it can be concluded that plants cultivated in rotation with rice and grown on the same soil harbor protective bacteria such as genus Bacillus and that may be potential reservoirs of bio-control agents for control of the rice pathogenic fungi tested in this study.  相似文献
