Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV), a member of the Luteoviridae , is implicated in the sugarcane disease known as yellow leaf syndrome (YLS), which is characterized by yellowing of the leaf midrib followed by leaf necrosis and possible growth suppression. YLS is distributed worldwide and susceptible cultivars are commonly infected with SCYLV. However, not all cultivars infected with SCYLV show symptoms of YLS and some cultivars that show symptoms do so sporadically. Since it is difficult to obtain virus-free plants of susceptible cultivars, it has not been possible to study the factors involved in SCYLV infection nor the effects of infection on plant growth and yield. A tissue blot immunoassay was used to visualize in vivo presence of the virus so that virus-infected and virus-free plants could be distinguished. Meristem tip cultures were used to produce virus-free plantings of six SCYLV-susceptible sugarcane cultivars. Nearly all of the regenerated sugarcane lines remained virus-free over a period of up to 4 years, whether grown in isolated fields or in the glasshouse. Experimental re-infection of the virus-free plants by viruliferous aphids demonstrated that meristem tip culture did not affect susceptibility of sugarcane to SCYLV. Improved diagnosis and production of virus-free plants of SCYLV-susceptible cultivars will facilitate research to quantify the effect of the virus on yield and to analyse the processes involved in disease development.  相似文献

Sugarcane cultivars with a high (susceptible cultivars) and low (resistant cultivars) virus titer of Sugarcane yellow leaf virus were grown in the field. The carbohydrate composition in green leaf tops and in stems was determined. In RT-PCR of leaf extracts, susceptible cultivars had a high SCYLV-titer, whereas resistant cultivars had a very low titer. The cultivars differed in biomass yield, but these differences were not correlated with susceptibility. However, carbohydrate composition did have susceptibility-specific differences. Hexose levels were lower in green leaf tops and stalks of susceptible (strongly infected) cultivars than in those of resistant (weakly infected) cultivars. The stalks of susceptible cultivars also had less starch than those of resistant cultivars. Thus, the viral susceptibility (and infection) affected sugar metabolism. In addition, a positive correlation between hexose and starch in stems and between hexose and sucrose in green leaf tops was observed. The results from susceptible versus resistant cultivars were the opposite of those in the comparison between infected versus virus-free lines of the same cultivar. The breeding process apparently had unintentionally selected clones with modulated carbohydrate metabolism to avoid or compensate for the adverse effects of SCYLV infection.  相似文献

Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) was first detected in sugarcane of Réunion Island in 1997. A field experiment was undertaken to assess the potential impact of this virus on sugarcane production. The agronomic characteristics of SCYLV-infected plants were compared to those of virus-free plants of three sugarcane cultivars (R570, R577 and R579) which occupy more than 90% of the cultivated sugarcane area on Réunion Island. In the plant crop, significant losses in stalk weight (28%) and in sugar content (11%) were detected for cultivar R577, but not for either of the two other cultivars. In the first ratoon crop, yield reduction was detected for cultivar R577 (37%), but also for cultivar R579 (19%). Cultivar R577 also showed significant losses in sugar content (12%) due to reduced amount and quality of extracted cane juice. No yield reduction was found for cultivar R570, although stalk height and diameter were reduced in SCYLV-infected canes of this cultivar in the first ratoon crop. Leaf yellowing was observed at harvest of plant and ratoon crops when sugarcane was no longer irrigated, and 10–59% of symptomatic stalks could be attributed to the presence of SCYLV. The most severe yellowing symptoms were related to infection of sugarcane by the virus.  相似文献

Hawaiian commercial sugarcane cultivars (Saccharum spp.), noble canes (S. officinarum), robust canes (S. robustum) and wild relatives of sugarcane (S. spontaneum and Erianthus arundinaceus) were tested by tissue blot immunoassay to determine whether they were infected by Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV). Two-thirds of the commercial hybrids and noble canes were infected and therefore classified as SCYLV-susceptible, in contrast to the wild cane relatives where less than one third of the varieties were infected. The pedigree list of commercial, registered cultivars showed that 80% of cultivars were SCYLV-susceptible and that also 75–90% of the progeny of resistant (female) parents were susceptible (male parents are mostly unknown because of polycross breeding). In contrast, a cross between a resistant S. robustum and a susceptible S. officinarum cultivar yielded 85% resistant progeny clones, which indicated that SCYLV-resistance is a dominant trait. It is concluded that the breeding program selected against SCYLV-resistance with the result that 80% of the newly bred cultivars were susceptible. Exceptional was the period between 1950 and 1970, in which 50% of the newly-bred clones were resistant. This is the period in which SCYLV had entered Hawaii. Weed grasses and cereal grasses which grew in or next to sugarcane fields were not infected by SCYLV. Thus SCYLV does not spread from infected sugarcane plants to adjacent grasses or cereals under field conditions, although cereal grasses can be infected experimentally.  相似文献

Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) is the causal agent of the sugarcane disease Yellow leaf (YL), which was first reported in Hawaii. The presence of SCYLV was detected by tissue blot immunoassay and the Hawaiian sugarcane cultivars fell into susceptible cultivars (with SCYLV) and resistant cultivars (without SCYLV). RT-PCR showed recently that the resistant cultivars also contain the virus, however with a 100-fold lower virus titre than in the susceptible cultivars. SCYLV is present as whole genome (6 kb) or as two subgenomic sequences of 2.4 and 1.0 kb. Virus preparations from three Hawaiian cultivars (one resistant and two susceptible) were fully sequenced and the sequences were aligned to published, full and partial sequences. The phylograms corroborate previous findings that the so-called YLS-segment, which codes for the coat protein, shows the least genetic diversity, whereas the other sequence fragments A–D, representing the ORFs 0–5, expressed a two-fold higher diversity. The Hawaiian SCYLV-strains clustered together next to the Peru strain, apart from the BRA-strains and well apart from the REU-strains. We propose that the Hawaiian SCYLV should be considered as an independent group together with the Peru strain and known as HAW-PER. The sequences from the two susceptible cultivars had a deletion of 48 to 54 nt in ORF1, which codes for the gene silencing suppressor and a RNA-dependent RNA-polymerase. It is speculated that this deletion is important for the high proliferation rate of the virus in the susceptible plants.  相似文献

Yellow leaf (YL) caused by Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) was first reported as a sugarcane disease in the 1990s, when it had already spread over many parts of the world. The time of introduction into the plantations is unknown. A worldwide screening identified only a few places isolated from cultivar exchange for more than 20 years which appeared SCYLV-free. Control tests with infected cultivars propagated for 12–16 generations by cuttings remained SCYLV-infected, proving that SCYLV is not eliminated by vegetative propagation. De novo infection by SCYLV-vectors in Hawaii occurred only over short distances. To reveal the period when SCYLV was introduced to Hawaii, volunteer sugarcane plants from closed Hawaiian plantations and from previous sites of the Hawaiian Sugarcane Planters′ Association breeding station were tested. The results suggest that SCYLV appeared in the breeding station between 1960 and 1970, whereas the plantations became infested after 1980. Imports in the 1960s obviously introduced the virus to the Hawaiian breeding station from where it spread to susceptible cultivars. Eighty percent of the cultivars, developed between 1973 and 1995, acquired the virus at the breeding station, in some cases within 4 years, indicating the rapid spread of SCYLV in the breeding station. The strain of SCYLV found in a Réunion cultivar in Hawaii, and the differing SCYLV-infection of CP-cultivars which were exported more than 20 years ago, suggested that also Réunion and Florida may still have been SCYLV-free in the 1970s. The study showed that retrospective epidemiology can be conducted on a disease which was unnoticed for more than 20 years.  相似文献

Infection of sugarcane by Sugarcane Yellow Leaf Virus (SCYLV) remains mostly asymptomatic. The assimilation rates and the water relations parameters were measured to test whether the plants are already inflicted by the infection. The assimilation rate and the stomatal conductance were 10–30% higher in virus-free plants than in infected plants. The observed differences were significant in young potted plants, not in older field plants. Virus-free leaves had a higher bundle sheath leakiness and a lower 13C discrimination rate than infected leaves. The water relations parameters of SCYLV-infected asymptomatic plants showed resemblance to those of salinity- and drought-stressed plants.  相似文献

The multiplication of Soil-borne wheat mosaic virus (SBWMV) was studied in mixtures of two winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) cultivars, one susceptible (Soissons) and the other resistant (Trémie). Two seed mixtures of susceptible and resistant varieties in ratios of 1 : 1 and 1 : 3 and their component pure stands, i.e. each variety grown separately, were grown in a field infected with SBWMV. The presence of the virus was detected using DAS-ELISA from January to May. The resistant cultivar Trémie showed no foliar symptoms nor could the virus be detected in the leaves or roots. In May, about 88% of plants of susceptible cultivar Soissons grown in pure stands were infected. At this time, the disease reduction relative to pure stands was 32.2% in the 1 : 1 mixture and 39.8% in the 1 : 3 mixture. Optical density (OD) values from ELISA of the infected plants in the two mixtures were consistently lower than that of the infected plants in cultivar Soissons in pure stands. The ELISA index (EI) calculated using three scales of OD values was 65.5% in the susceptible cultivar in pure stands. The value for this index was 19.1% in the 1 : 1 mixture and 7.9% in the 1 : 3 mixture. The plants of the resistant cultivar Trémie infected in the same field and transferred in January to a growth cabinet at 15 °C multiplied the virus and produced viruliferous zoospores. These results show that the resistant cultivar Trémie plays a role in disease reduction in the cultivar mixtures in field conditions. Possible reasons for this are discussed.  相似文献

Beet cyst nematode-resistant cultivars, which were introduced recently, originated from the homozygous inbred line B883. This translocation product was unstable and the transmission of resistance when crossed with a susceptible cultivar did not exceed 94%. Tests with the resistant cultivars in climate cabinets showed a wide variety of resistance against Heterodera schachtii and beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV), expressed as average numbers of infective units per plant and percentages of resistant plants. In a series of field trials at different levels of infection of H. schachtii, their multiplication rates on all resistant cultivars depended on the initial density, which was caused by the presence of small numbers of susceptible plants. Since tolerance to wilting was also incorporated in B883, reasonable yields were obtained in the presence of H. schachtii. However, at increasing initial densities of H. schachtii, yields decreased considerably, since penetrating juveniles cause a hypersensitivity reaction in resistant plants. Based upon the results of three series of field trials, it was concluded that resistant cultivars should preferably be applied at population densities between 500 and 2000 eggs and juveniles of H. schachtii per 100ml of soil. Cultivars with double resistance against H. schachtii and BNYVV behaved like those with H. schachtii resistance in soils infected with beet cyst nematodes, but not with BNYVV. In soils with a combined infection of H. schachtii and BNYVV double resistant cultivars were far superior to single resistant ones, since damage caused by BNYVV was far more serious than damage caused by H. schachtii. No substantial interaction between soil pathogens nor types of resistance could be detected.  相似文献

Sugarcane yellow leaf virus, the causal agent of yellow leaf, is transmitted from plant to plant by aphids. Understanding and evaluating the epidemic risks due to spread of yellow leaf by aphids is an important feature for sugarcane production. Four distinct sugarcane trials were set up with disease-free plants to study the relationship between spread of yellow leaf, the vector dynamics and environmental conditions that may favour yellow leaf epidemics. The study was performed by surveys of vector populations and determination of plant infections. Sugarcane cultivar SP71-6163, highly susceptible to yellow leaf, was analyzed spatially at different dates in all four trials and compared to commercial cultivars in two of the four trials. These surveys allowed us to identify a correlation between the aphid dynamics in the field and yellow leaf progress. Additionally, a negative correlation was found between rainfall during the first weeks after transferring sugarcane plants to the field and aphid dispersal within the field. This later result revealed an impact of rainfall on aphid invasion and subsequent plant infection by SCYLV. If aphids are the key factor for disease spread, plant response varied also according to cultivar resistance with high variation depending on rain conditions.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Two mutant strains of beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) containing deletions in RNA 3 were obtained by single lesion transfers in Tetragonia expansa. The deleted regions encode either 94 or 121 amino acids toward the C-terminal part of the 25-kDa protein (P25). Wild-type and mutant virus strains were inoculated by Polymyxa betae to sugar beet seedlings of susceptible and partially resistant cultivars. No differences were found in virus content in rootlets between mutant and wild-type viruses or between susceptible and resistant cultivars after culture for 4 weeks in a growth cabinet. However, when virus-inoculated seedlings were grown in the field for 5 months, the wild-type virus caused typical rhizomania root symptoms (69 to 96% yield loss) in susceptible cultivars, but no symptoms (23% loss) developed in most plants of the resistant cultivar, and BNYVV concentrations in the roots were 10 to 20x lower in these plants than in susceptible plants. In contrast, the mutant strains caused no symptoms in susceptible or resistant cultivars, and the virus content of roots was much lower in both cultivars than in wild-type virus infections. Wild-type RNA 3 was not detectable in most of the taproots of a resistant cultivar without any symptoms, suggesting that replication of undeleted RNA 3 was inhibited. These results indicate that the P25 of BNYVV RNA 3 is essential for the development of rhizomania symptoms in susceptible cultivars and suggest that it may fail to facilitate virus translocation from rootlets to taproots in the partially resistant cultivar.  相似文献

Two sugarcane cultivars (R570 and SP71-6163) naturally infected by Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (SCYLV) were each imported from several geographical locations into a sugarcane yellow leaf-free environment (Montpellier, France). Plants were grown as plant cane for 5–6 months and the experiment was repeated for three consecutive years (2003–2005) in a greenhouse. Several sugarcane-growth and disease characteristics were monitored to identify variation in pathogenicity of SCYLV. Depending on their geographical origin, sugarcane cvs R570 and SP71-6163 were infected by SCYLV genotypes BRA-PER or REU, or a mixture of the two. Severity of symptoms did not vary between plants of cv. R570, but variation in disease severity between plants of cv. SP71-6163 from different geographical locations suggested the occurrence of pathogenic variants of SCYLV. For each sugarcane cultivar, differences in stalk length, number of stalk internodes, virus titre in the top visible dewlap leaf, and percentage of infection of leaf and stalk phloem vessels were also found between plants from different geographical origins. However, these differences were not always reproducible from one year to another, suggesting occurrence of different plant responses to SCYLV isolates under varying environmental conditions.  相似文献

Role of stilbenes in the resistance of grapevine to powdery mildew   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Stilbene phytoalexins are identified as defence response in pathogen–grapevine interactions, but little information is available on the role of stilbenes on Erysiphe necator, causal agent of grapevine powdery mildew. Analysis of stilbenes in artificially infected leaf discs from susceptible to highly resistant cultivars was performed and compared to the development of the pathogen. Results indicate that stilbene synthesis is confined in infected cells, penetrated by an appressorium–peg. Stilbene amounts expressed by infection site allow discriminating susceptible and resistant cultivars. Highest viniferins concentrations on resistant cultivars are in correspondence with the observed inhibition of the pathogen growth. The analysis of stilbenes at the infection site and viniferins accumulation in grapevine defence reaction is discussed.  相似文献

The effect of resistance of sugar beet cultivars to beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) on virus content of resting spore clusters of the vectorPolymyxa betae was studied in controlled environments and in naturally infested fields. The total number of resting spore clusters formed in roots of a partially resistant and a susceptible cultivar did not differ when assessed 6 and 12 weeks after inoculation with viruliferous resting spores. Transmission experiments showed that in partially resistant plants, having a low virus content in the roots, the population of resting spores formed was less viruliferous than that in susceptible plants with a high virus content. Consequently, growing a resistant cultivar can be expected to delay the build-up of virus inoculum in soil.In a trial field sampled in 1991, the inoculum potential of BNYVV (most probable number of viruliferousP. betae propagules) in soil was lower after growing a partially resistant cultivar than after growing a susceptible one. On the other hand, in four sites sampled in 1990, inoculum potential in soil was hardly increased by growing sugar beet and was not significantly affected by the cultivar grown.  相似文献

Pathogen development and host responses in wheat spikes of resistant and susceptible cultivars infected by Fusarium culmorum causing Fusarium head blight (FHB), were investigated by means of electron microscopy as well as immunogold labelling techniques. The studies revealed similarities in the infection process and the initial spreading of the pathogen in wheat spikes between resistant and susceptible cultivars. However, the pathogen’s development was obviously more slow in the resistant cultivars as in comparison to a susceptible one. The structural defence reactions such as the formation of thick layered appositions and large papillae were essentially more pronounced in the infected host tissues of the resistant cultivars, than in the susceptible one. β -1,3-glucan was detected in the appositions and papillae. Furthermore, immunogold labelling of lignin demonstrated that there were no differences in the lignin contents of the wheat spikes between susceptible and resistant cultivars regarding the uninoculated healthy tissue, but densities of lignin in host cell walls of the infected wheat spikes differed distinctly between resistant and susceptible cultivars. The lignin content in the cell walls of the infected tissues of the susceptible wheat cultivar increased slightly, while the lignin accumulated intensely in the host cell walls of the infected wheat spikes of the resistant cultivars. These findings indicate that lignin accumulation in the infected wheat spikes may play an important role in resistance to the spreading of the pathogen in the host tissues. Immunogold labelling of the Fusarium toxin DON in the infected lemma showed the same labelling patterns in the host tissues of resistant and susceptible cultivars. However, there were distinct differences in the toxin concentration between the tissues of the susceptible and resistant cultivars. At the early stage of infection, the labelling densities for DON in resistant cultivars were significantly lower than those in the susceptible one. The present study indicates that the FHB resistant cultivars are able to develop active defence reactions during infection and spreading of the pathogen in the host tissues. The lower accumulation of the toxin DON in the tissues of the infected spikes of resistant cultivars which results from the host’s defence mechanisms may allow more intensive defence responses to the pathogen by the host.  相似文献

Blackleg (Phoma stem canker) caused by Leptosphaeria maculans is the most damaging disease of Brassica napus (canola, rapeseed, colza) worldwide and is controlled by sowing blackleg resistant cultivars and crop management strategies that reduce exposure to inoculum and fungicide application. In experiments in south-eastern Australia, canola cultivars inoculated after the three to five leaf growth stage did not develop stem canker. Although mature canola plants are known to be less susceptible to blackleg than seedlings, this highlights for the first time the specific importance of protecting seedlings up to the three to five leaf growth stage in Australia. This would typically correspond to a period of four to six weeks after emergence. Canola plants are likely to be significantly less vulnerable to infection after this growth stage. However, this timing may vary due to the influence of environmental conditions.  相似文献

Interactions between Barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) and Fusarium species causing Fusarium head blight (FHB) in winter wheat cvs Agent (susceptible to FHB) and Petrus (moderately resistant to FHB) were studied over three years (2001–2003) in outdoor pot experiments. FHB developed more rapidly in cv. Agent than in cv. Petrus. The spread of FHB was greater in BYDV-infected plants than in BYDV-free plants. Thousand grain weight (TGW) was reduced more in Fusarium-infected heads of cv. Agent than in cv. Petrus. A highly significant negative correlation was found between disease index and TGW in cv. Agent (r = −0.916), while in cv. Petrus the correlation was less significant (r = −0.765). Virus infection reduced TGW in cv. Petrus more than in cv. Agent. In plants with both infections, TGW reductions in cv. Petrus corresponded to those of BYDV infection, and in cv. Agent TGW was more diminished than in BYDV infection. Effects of different treatments determined over three years on ergosterol contents in grain were generally similar to effects on disease indices. Grain weight per ear and ear weight of the different treatments of both cultivars largely corresponded with the TGW results. Deoxynivalenol (DON) content in grain of cv. Agent infected with Fusarium spp. was 11–25 times higher compared to the corresponding treatments in cv. Petrus. The DON content in grain of plants of the two cultivars infected with both pathogens was higher than that of plants infected only with Fusarium over the three years.  相似文献

Sugarcane yellow leaf virus (ScYLV) is present in many sugarcane growing areas of the world. It is suspected to cause yellow leaf disease (formerly called YLS, yellow leaf syndrome) of sugarcane. This study investigated symptom expression in a selection of cultivars classified into three groups; ScYLV-susceptible/infected, ScYLV-resistant and intermediately infected cultivars grown in plantation fields in the islands of Hawaii. Incidence of yellow leaf symptoms was correlated, though not tightly, to the presence of ScYLV. The correlation is based on two factors: (i) only ScYLV-infected cultivars (from both susceptible and intermediate groups) showed severe symptom expression, and (ii) ScYLV-infected plants had four times higher symptom incidence than virus-free plants of the same cultivar. The yellow leaf symptom expression fluctuated, peaking at 200, 350, 500 and 600 days after planting. These symptom peaks were correlated with an increase of ScYLV content in the intermediately infected group of cultivars. No nutritional, environmental or field factor could be identified which clearly influenced symptom expression. It is speculated that the symptom expression is elicited by assimilate backup in the stalks and that the fluctuation of symptom expression is caused by the growth rhythm of mature sugarcane stalks.  相似文献
