Pseudomonas putida 40RNF applied to seed pellets reduced the occurrence of Pythium damping-off of sugar beet. A density of 6 × 107 40RNF per pellet reduced Pythium damping-off from 70 to 26% when seeds were sown in artificially infested soil (250 propagules Pythium ultimum per g dry soil). The efficacy of 40RNF was dependent on its density in the seed pellet (in the range 2 × 104–6 × 108 per pellet) and on the number of propagules of Pythium in soil. 40RNF declined to or stabilized at approximately 1 × 106 per pellet 3 days after planting, and this was independent of the inoculum density. This indicated that the crucial steps resulting in damping-off of sugar beet caused by Pythium ultimum must occur within 3–4 days of sowing. 40RNF reduced pericarp colonization by P. ultimum by 43% 48 h after planting and caused a 68% decrease in the number of sporangia of P. ultimum in the surrounding soil (0.0–5.0 mm). P. putida 40RNF also reduced pre and post-emergence damping-off (from 69.5 to 37.5%) caused by indigenous populations of Pythium species in an infested soil and this was as effective as the fungicide hymexazol (69.5 to 40%).  相似文献

Application of Pythium oligandrum to a soil-based compost as a mycelial suspension (5 × 102 CFU g−1 of dry compost) and oospore alginate pellets (105 oospores/g of dry compost) controlled pre- and postemergence damping-off of sugar beet caused by Pythium ultimum to a level similar to metalaxyl seed treatment. Oospore seed treatments and aqueous suspensions of oospores applied to compost failed to control disease. Problems in the use of P. oligandrum oospore inocula for the control of damping-off were highlighted. It was shown that treatment of oospores with cellulase (20 g L−1) increased germination approximately three-fold in comparison to untreated spores. Untreated and cellulase pretreated oospores were subsequently evaluated as seed treatments for their ability to control damping-off of sugar beet. The highest rate of pretreated oospores (104 oospores/seed) gave levels of emergence and establishment in infested compost that were not significantly different from the uninfested controls, whereas seed treatment with untreated oospores gave no significant reduction in disease. In a trial carried out in a controlled environment to assess the effect of pH (4.5–8.0), P. oligandrum (104 cellulase pretreated oospores/seed) was shown to control pre- and postemergence damping-off of sugar beet at pH 7.0 and 7.5 only.  相似文献

Seeds of cress and sugar-beet were coated with oospores of Pythium oligandrum using commercial seed-pelleting or film-coating procedures. Following either procedure approximately 104 oospores were recovered from both seed types, achieving 75.94% of the targeted dose. Oospore germination (9.19%) was unaffected by the coating treatments. Both types of treatment reduced damping-off of cress caused by P. ultimum in artificially infested sand and potting compost and by Rhizoctonia solani in artificially infested sand. In some cases, the level of control was equivalent to fungicide drenches. In general, pelleting of P. oligandrum on cress gave better control than film-coating treatments. P. oligandrum also reduced damping-off of sugar-beet in soil naturally infested with Aphanomyces cochlioides and Pythium spp. Control was equivalent to that achieved with hymexazol fungicide seed-coating treatments and was related to the inoculum potential of A. cochlioides in the soil; neither standard hymexazol coatings nor P. oligandrum treatments gave control at high inoculum potentials. P. oligandrum was not rhizosphere competent on cress or sugar-beet.  相似文献

Alginate pellets were prepared from wet fermentor biomass of 11 isolates of Trichoderma spp. and Gliocladium virens , with wheat bran as a food base carrier. Pellets with eight of the isolates reduced survival (34-78%) of Rhizoctonia solani in infested beet seed in soil. Pellets containing a T. harzianum isolate (Th-58) and a T. hamatum isolate (TRI-4) were the most effective. All isolates significantly reduced growth of the pathogen from infested beet seed into natural soil. Populations of isolates proliferated in soil to 106−1011 colony-forming units/g (cfu) from propagules within the pellets. Pellets with TRI-4 reduced pathogen survival and growth (>70%) in six different soils and were effective against six R. solani isolates in a natural loamy sand. Survival of R. solani in infested beet seed was not reduced when TRI-4 pellets were added to soil 1-6 weeks before the pathogen; however, saprophytic growth was prevented. Small amounts of biomass (3.0–7.5 g wet weight) in pellets were as effective as a large amount (300 g) in suppressing the pathogen. The storage of pellets for more than 6 weeks at 5 or 25C reduced their effectiveness against R. solani. Pellets prepared with four and three of the 11 isolates prevented damping-off of cotton and sugar beet in the greenhouse, respectively.  相似文献

Root systems of tobacco dipped in suspensions containing 2 × 109 colony forming units (CFU)/ml of avirulent bacteriocin-producing strains (ABPS) of Pseudomonas solanacearum and assayed immediately after planting in steam-sterilized soil had 8 × 106 CFU/root system of ABPS. The bacterial population declined to an average of 5·3 × 105 CFU/root system after 30 days. Roots of seedlings dipped in bacterial suspensions of ABPS were more effectively protected against wilt caused by P. solanacearum than those dipped in suspensions of an avirulent nonbacteriocin-producing strain (ANBPS). Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) isolated from one ABPS (121) inhibited the attachment of bacteria on roots by 70% but had no effect on the reduction of wilt, whereas bacterial cells significantly reduced the disease severity as compared to LPS or water treatment. In steam-sterilized soil containing a 1:1 mixture (5 × 105 CFU/g of oven-dried soil) of ABPS 121 or 237 and the virulent strain K-60, ABPS 121 reduced multiplication of the virulent strain in soil and in the rhizosphere of seedlings. When roots of seedlings were dipped in a suspension of 2 × 109 CFU/ml of ABPS before planting, root colonization by the virulent strain added to steam-sterilized soil at 2 × 106 CFU/g of oven-dried soil was significantly reduced. When roots were dipped in a suspension of ABPS and assayed 20 days after planting, 98% of the bacterial population was found in the original zone of inoculation and only 2% was detected in new growths of the root system. Plants which were grown in soil infested with ABPS 121 or K-60 had both strains present at variable populations along all sections of roots.  相似文献

Pseudomonas fluorescens strain CHA0 suppresses various plant diseases caused by soil-borne fungi. The pseudomonad produces the antimicrobial metabolites 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (Phl), pyoluteorin (Plt) and hydrogen cyanide, which are important for disease suppression, as well as the siderophores pyoverdine (Pvd), salicylic acid (Sal) and pyochelin (Pch). In the current work, a derivative of CHA0 with a mutation in the global regulator gene gacA (GacA−), which is unable to produce Phl, Plt and HCN, failed to protect the dicotyledonous plants cress and cucumber against damping-off caused by Pythium ultimum . In contrast, the GacA− mutant could still protect the Gramineae wheat and maize against damping-off mediated by the same strain of P. ultimum , and wheat against take-all caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis . However, the GacA− mutant overproduced Pch and Pvd. To gain more insight into disease protection afforded by the GacA− mutant, a GacA− Pvd− double mutant (strain CHA496) was constructed by gene replacement. Strain CHA496 overproduced Pch and Sal compared with CHA0 and protected wheat against P. ultimum and G. graminis , whereas cress and cucumber were not protected. Addition of FeCl3 repressed Pch and Sal production by strain CHA496 in vitro and impaired the protection of wheat in soil microcosms. In conclusion, a functional gacA gene was necessary for the protection of dicotyledons against root diseases, but not for that of Gramineae. Results indicated also that Pch and/or Sal were involved in the ability of the GacA− Pvd− mutant of CHA0 to suppress root diseases in Gramineae.  相似文献

Pythium species cause necrotic lesions and root rots on tomato in soilless culture. Epidemiological studies conducted in Brittany, France, revealed the precocity and the frequency of the contamination of tomato roots by these fungi, even in symptomless roots. The colonization, estimated by culture-plate methods, could reach levels as high as 105 propagules/gram of root. The frequent occurrence of Pythium with filamentous non-inflated sporangia, representing 75% of the total isolates, was observed during both latent infections and necrotic phases. Those Pythium spp., grouped as Pythium F, induced variable necrotic lesions in tomato roots in soilless culture. This group, which had been overlooked previously in favour of known pathogenic species such as P. ultitnum var. ultimum , can be pathogenic to tomato plants and therefore form a component of a potential disease complex.  相似文献

An isolate of Gliocladium roseum proved highly antagonistic to Botrytis cinerea . Sporulation of B. cinerea on chickpea seed naturally infected or inoculated with B. cinerea was suppressed by seed treatment with conidial suspensions of G. roseum at 107 and 108 conidia/mL, respectively. Establishment of healthy seedlings in punnets (small trays) 5 weeks after sowing with inoculated seed was increased from 29.2% to 59.7% by treatment with G. roseum at 3×107 conidia/mL, and from 1.4% to 69.4% with G. roseum at 3×108 conidia/mL, the latter being equivalent to disease control by Thiram. There was no significant effect of Rhizobium on disease suppression by G. roseum , and treatment with G. roseum at 108 conidia/mL did not reduce nodulation. Amendment with culture filtrates of G. roseum did not affect the growth rate of B. cinerea on potato dextrose agar, indicating that constitutive production of an antibiotic is not involved in biocontrol. A selective medium was developed to enumerate propagules of G. roseum on seed recovered from soil. There was no significant change in the population of G. roseum on seed after incubation for 4 weeks in soil to which the isolate of G. roseum was indigenous.  相似文献

Methods to assess light leaf spot ( Pyrenopeziza brassicae ) on winter oilseed rape cultivars were compared in laboratory, controlled-environment and field experiments. In controlled-environment experiments with seedling leaves inoculated at GS 1,4, the greatest differences in percentage area affected by P. brassicae sporulation were observed with inoculum concentrations of 4 × 103 or 4 × 104 spores mL−1, rather than 4 × 102 or 4 × 105 spores mL−1, but older leaves had begun to senesce before assessment, particularly where they were severely affected by P. brassicae . In winter oilseed rape field experiments, a severe light leaf spot epidemic developed in 2002/03 (inoculated, September/October rainfall 127·2 mm) but not in 2003/04 (uninoculated, September/October rainfall 40·7 mm). In-plot assessments discriminated between cultivars best in February/March in 2003 and June in 2004, but sometimes failed to detect plots with many infected plants (e.g. March/April 2004). Ranking of cultivar resistance differed between seedling experiments done under controlled-environment conditions and field experiments. The sensitivity of detection of P. brassicae DNA extracted from culture was greater using the PCR primer pair PbITSF/PbITSR than using primers Pb1/Pb2. P. brassicae was detected by PCR (PbITS primers) in leaves from controlled-environment experiments immediately and up to 14 days after inoculation, and in leaves sampled from field experiments 2 months before detection by visual assessment.  相似文献

The effects of different levels of inoculum of Aspergillus carbonarius and time of inoculation on berry infection and the development of aspergillus bunch rot on grapevines (cv. Sultana) were studied under field conditions. Inflorescences at full bloom were inoculated with aqueous spore suspensions of A. carbonarius containing 0 or 1 × 106 spores mL−1 in 2004/05 and 0, 1 × 102 or 1 × 105 spores mL−1 in 2005/06. In both years, the incidence of infection in inoculated berries was significantly higher than in uninoculated berries. Incidence of infection in berries from veraison until harvest was higher than at earlier stages of bunch development (berry set to berries that were still hard and green). Inoculation of bunches at veraison did not significantly increase A. carbonarius infection prior to harvest, at harvest, 6 days after harvest or when berries were over-ripe. Bunches inoculated at harvest did not significantly increase infection 6 days after harvest or when berries were over-ripe. Aspergillus carbonarius was isolated more frequently from the pedicel end (53·1%) than from the middle section (37·5%) and distal end (35·0%) of berries that were inoculated with 105 spores mL−1.  相似文献

Genetic variation of the barley powdery mildew fungus ( Erysiphe graminis f.sp. hordei ) was estimated in three Danish local populations. Genetic variation was estimated from the variation amongst clones of Egh , and was therefore an estimate of the maximum genetic variation in the local populations. The average gene diversity, Ĥ , was estimated as 0.84. The effective population size was estimated as: log10 ( N^ e ) = 0.64 − log10(μ), or 4.4 × 109, assuming a nucleotide mutation rate ( μ) of 10−9 per base per generation. There was no significant genetic differentiation between locations.  相似文献

A study was conducted to investigate the effect of salinity on pythium damping-off and tolerance to salinity among Pythium aphanidermatum isolates from different geographical origins, genetic backgrounds and saline/non-saline soils. Increasing irrigation-water salinity from 0·01 to 5 dS m−1 significantly increased mortality in cucumber seedlings inoculated with P. aphanidermatum and reduced dry weight of non-inoculated seedlings. In vitro tests in culture media amended with different concentrations of NaCl showed that growth of P. aphanidermatum, P. spinosum and P. splendens isolates was stimulated or unaffected at salinity levels stressful for cucumber (electrical conductivity = 5 dS m−1). Significant differences were found in tolerance to salinity among 47 P. aphanidermatum isolates obtained from different greenhouses. The concentration of NaCl required to reduce growth of P. aphanidermatum isolates by 50% varied from 23 to 62 dS m−1, with an average of 46 dS m−1, however, oospore production was more sensitive to salinity and no oospores were produced above 20 dS m−1. Analysis of tolerance of P. aphanidermatum isolates to salinity showed no relationship between tolerance to salinity and geographical origins or genetic data. Isolates of P. aphanidermatum from greenhouses with no salinity problems were as tolerant to salinity as isolates obtained from salinity-affected greenhouses, suggesting lack of evidence for ecological adaptation within P. aphanidermatum in Oman. Increased mortality in cucumber seedlings at higher salinity levels may imply a synergistic interaction between salinity stress and salinity-tolerant Pythium species on cucumber seedlings, resulting in greater seedling losses.  相似文献

The rhizosphere competence of the biological control agent Trichoderma atroviride isolate C52 was studied on onion roots both in the glasshouse and in the field when introduced into soil in a range of formulations. Proliferation of T. atroviride in the rhizosphere was formulation-dependent. A pellet formulation maintained the fungal concentration at 105 cfu per g soil, whereas solid-substrate and seed-coating formulations gave concentrations of 104 and 101 cfu per g soil, respectively. To facilitate rhizosphere-competence studies, a UP-PCR band profile generated with primer L45 for isolate C52 was used to enable conclusive identification of T. atroviride C52 when recovered from soil. When isolate C52 was introduced into Sclerotium cepivorum -infested soil as both pellet and solid-substrate formulations, there was no statistically significant difference in the disease control between these treatments, but the pellet treatment doubled the percentage of healthy plants compared with the control treatment.  相似文献

The fungitoxicity of allyl-isothiocyanate (AITC) vapour against Penicillium expansum , the causal agent of blue mould on pears (cvs Conference and Kaiser), was evaluated. The best control of blue mould was obtained by exposing fruits for 24 h in a 5 mg L−1 AITC-enriched atmosphere, the extent of control depending on the inoculum density. Lesion diameter was inversely related to AITC concentration. In treated fruits the percentage of infected wounds increased with conidial concentration, with fewer than 20% affected at 1 × 103 conidia mL−1 to almost 80% at 1 × 106 conidia mL−1. In comparison, >98% of wounds were infected in untreated fruits irrespective of conidial concentration. AITC treatments were effective up to 24 h after inoculation for Conference and 48 h for Kaiser. AITC treatments also controlled a thiabendazole-resistant strain of P. expansum , reducing the incidence of blue mould by 90% in both cultivars. The use of AITC produced from pure sinigrin or from Brassica juncea defatted meal may be an economically viable alternative to synthetic fungicides against P. expansum .  相似文献

Factors affecting the production of conidia of Peronosclerospora sorghi , causing sorghum downy mildew (SDM), were investigated during 1993 and 1994 in Zimbabwe. In the field conidia were detected on nights when the minimum temperature was in the range 10–19°C. On 73% of nights when conidia were detected rain had fallen within the previous 72 h and on 64% of nights wind speed was < 2.0 m s−1. The time period over which conidia were detected was 2–9 h. Using incubated leaf material, conidia were produced in the temperature range 10–26°C. Local lesions and systemically infected leaf material produced 2.4–5.7 × 103 conidia per cm2. Under controlled conditions conidia were released from conidiophores for 2.5 h after maturation and were shown to be well adapted to wind dispersal, having a settling velocity of 1.5 × 10−4 m s−1. Conditions that are suitable for conidia production occur in Zimbabwe and other semi-arid regions of southern Africa during the cropping season.  相似文献

Current status of biological control of paddy weeds in Vietnam   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Rice is a staple food in Vietnam and accounts for > 7.7 × 106 cultivated ha, which provide 35.5 × 106 t of rice, of which 4.2 × 106 t were exported in 2004. The enlargement of the cropping area and the enhancement of rice yield have rapidly increased the amount of agrochemicals, including herbicides, in crop production in Vietnam. From 1990–2003, the percentage of herbicides in total pesticides has increased ≈ 10-fold to 30.2%. In addition, the improper use of herbicides caused environmental hazards, unsafe agricultural products, and human health problems. Biological management integrated with traditional weed control techniques might help to reduce the dependence on synthetic herbicides and build eco-friendly, sustainable agricultural production in Vietnam. This paper reviews the efforts in establishing a strategy for biological management of weeds that was conducted in recent years by Vietnamese weed scientists. This has included cropping system management, water and soil management, integrated pest management, and utilization of plant allelopathy as major components of the strategy. Many plants with strong allelopathic potential can be a source for biological weed suppression and soil fertility improvement. The utilization of allelopathic properties in rice might also help to provide new rice cultivars with weed-suppressing characteristics.  相似文献

Incorporation of the aggressive mycoparasite Pythium oligandrum into a carboxymethyl cellulose-based seed coating decreased damping-off of cress seedlings by Pythium ultimum in both naturally infested soil and artificially infested sand. This effect is attributed to the germination of P. oligandrum oospores on the seed surface with subsequent generation of a protectant mycelium around the seedling.
P. oligandrum oospores survived storage periods of 10—20 weeks at zero relative humidity both on glass slides and within seed coatings. The mycoparasite also survived an 18–month burial in natural soil, probably in the form of oospores.
The implications of these observations for biocontrol of seedling diseases by P. oligandrum are discussed.  相似文献

The height of barley stunted by Rhizoctonia solani anastomosis group 8 was significantly increased by up to 72·8% after incubation for 8 days at 20°C in seedling tray tests following application of the mycoparasite Verticillium biguttatum. The pathogen and mycoparasite were applied at the rate of 1% Perlite maizemeal inoculum (w/w potting mixture) resulting in propagule densities of approximately 24·0 and 6·6 × 105 colony-forming units (cfu) per g potting mixture, respectively. Sieving (2 mm) R. solani inoculum prior to dilution in potting mixture increased the recovery of propagules from 1·2 × 2·1 × 103 cfu per g inoculum compared with recovery when inoculum was sieved after dilution. Applications of a V. biguttatum isolate from the UK (vbl) and a Dutch isolate (M73) reduced stunting to a similar extent but did not stimulate the growth of healthy plants. The height of stunted plants was significantly increased after application of V. biguttatum inoculum after 6 days if inoculated trays were preincubated for 1 day prior to planting but a similar increase was only detected after 7 days if seeds were planted immediately. The number of stunted plants which emerged after 4 days was significantly increased by treatment with V. biguttatum but preincubation had no additional effect. These results suggested that control of R. solani was effected both before and after the initiation of disease.  相似文献

The bioherbicidal fungus, Colletotrichum truncatum (Schwein.) Andrus & Moore, was tested at different inoculum concentrations alone and in combination with, prior to or following treatment with different rates of glyphosate ( N -[phosphonomethyl]glycine) (Roundup Ultra) for the control of hemp sesbania ( Sesbania exaltata [Raf.] Rydb. ex A.W. Hill) in Roundup Ready soybean field plots. Colletotrichum truncatum and glyphosate were applied in all pair-wise combinations of 0, 1.25, 2.5, 5.0, and 10.0 × 106 spores mL−1 (i.e. 3.125, 6.25, 12.5, and 25 × 1011 spores ha−1), and 0.15, 0.30, 0.60, and 1.2 kg ha−1, respectively. Weed control and disease incidence were enhanced at the two lowest fungal and herbicidal rates when the fungal spores were applied after glyphosate treatment. The application of the fungus in combination with or prior to glyphosate application at 0.30 kg ha−1 resulted in reduced disease incidence and weed control regardless of the inoculum's concentration. At the highest glyphosate rates, the weeds were controlled by the herbicide alone. These results suggest that it might be possible to utilize additive or synergistic herbicide and pathogen interactions to enhance hemp sesbania control.  相似文献
