Two isolates of Streptomyces spp. DAUFPE 11470 and DAUFPE 14632 were evaluated to determine the antagonist–pathogen inoculum concentration relationship under greenhouse conditions. Pathogen and antagonist concentration, significantly (P < 0.05) affected development of Fusarium disease in maize with a significant interaction between pathogen and antagonist concentration. Dose–response relationship also differed significantly (P < 0.05) between the two isolates, but both isolates demonstrated effective control of Fusarium disease, regardless of pathogen concentration. The isolate DAUFPE 11470 provided the most effective control. The lowest value for disease incidence occurred at low pathogen (103 chlamydospore g−1 soil) and high antagonist concentration (106 cfu ml−1) for both isolates. The disease incidence for control plants ranged from 19% to 76%. However, in relation to control the lowest disease reduction occurred at low pathogen (103 chlamydospore g−1 soil) and high antagonist concentrations (106 cfu ml−1). These reductions were 10.6% and 13% for DAUFPE 14632 and DAUFPE 11470, respectively. The highest disease reductions, in relation to control plants, occurred at high pathogen (106 chlamydospore g−1 soil) and antagonist (106 cfu ml−1) concentrations for both isolates. These values were 55% and 62.2% for DAUFPE 14632 and DAUFPE 11470, respectively. The chlamydospore germination of Fusarium moniliforme was affected by glucose addition, antagonist isolates and type of inoculum. The lowest chlamydospore germination was observed with bacterial suspensions of the isolates, for all glucose additions. The results suggested that both Streptomyces spp. isolates were effective at different doses as biocontrol agents against F. moniliforme. Also, there was evidence for at least two mechanisms of biocontrol and that apparently, both isolates showed the same mechanisms of biocontrol action related to production of bioactive compounds and competition for carbon. Further studies will be developed to improve the level and effectiveness of control by these isolates.  相似文献

The yeast Pichia anomala strain K was selected in Belgium from the apple surface for its antagonistic activity against post-harvest diseases of apples. The efficacy of this strain against P. expansum was evaluated in the laboratory in three scenarios designed to mimic practical conditions, with different periods of incubation between biological treatment, wounding of fruit surface, and pathogen inoculation. Higher protection levels and higher final yeast densities were obtained when the applied initial concentration was 1 × 108 cfu ml−1 than when it was only 1 × 105 cfu ml−1. The protection level correlated positively with the yeast density determined in wounds and was influenced by apple surface wetness. In orchard trials spanning two successive years, biological treatment against P. expansum, based on a powder of P. anomala strain K (1 × 107 cfu ml−1), β-1,3-glucans (YGT 2 g l−1), and CaCl2.2H20 (20 g l−1), was applied to apples pre- or post-harvest under practical conditions and its effect compared with standard chemical treatments. The first year, the highest reduction (95.2%) against blue decay was obtained by means of four successive fungicide treatments and the next-highest level (87.6%) with pre-harvest high-volume spraying of the three-component mixture 12 days before harvest. The second year, the best results were obtained with post-harvest Sumico (carbendazim 25% and diethofencarb 25%) treatment and post-harvest biological treatment, both by dipping the apples, 88.3 and 56.3% respectively. A density threshold of 1 × 104 cfu cm−2 of strain K on the apple surface seemed to be required just after harvest for high protective activity, whatever the method and time of application. In the case of pre-harvest biological treatments, variations in meteorological conditions between the 2 years may have considerably affected strain K population density and its efficacies.  相似文献

Resistance to the fungicide boscalid in laboratory mutants of Botryotinia fuckeliana (Botrytis cinerea) was investigated. The baseline sensitivity to boscalid was evaluated in terms of colony growth (EC50 = 0.3–3 μg ml−1; MIC = 10–30 μg ml−1) and conidial germination (EC50 = 0.03–0.1 μg ml−1; MIC = 1–3 μg ml−1) tests. Mutants were selected in vitro from wild-type strains of the fungus on a fungicide-amended medium containing acetate as a carbon source. Mutants showed two different levels of resistance to boscalid, distinguishable through the conidial germination tests: low (EC50 ∼ 0.3 μg ml−1, ranging from 0.03 to 1 μg ml−1; MIC > 100 μg ml−1) and high (EC50 > 100 μg ml−1) resistance. Analysis of meiotic progeny from crosses between resistant mutants and sensitive reference strains showed that resistant phenotypes were due to mutations in single major gene(s) inherited in a Mendelian fashion, and linked with both the Daf1 and Mbc1 genes, responsible for resistance to dicarboximide and benzimidazole fungicides, respectively. Gene sequence analysis of the four sub-units of the boscalid-target protein, the succinate dehydrogenase enzyme, revealed that single or double point mutations in the highly conserved regions of the iron-sulphur protein (Ip) gene were associated with resistance. Mutations resulted in proline to leucine or phenylalanine replacements at position 225 (P225L or P225F) in high resistant mutants, and in a histidine to tyrosine replacement at position 272 (H272Y) in low resistant mutants. Sequences of the flavoprotein and the two transmembrane sub-units of succinate dehydrogenase were never affected.  相似文献

The survival of Ralstonia solanacearum A1-9Rif race 1 phylotype I was studied in ten different soil types in the absence of the host plant as well as in infected tissues of the stem and root of bell peppers buried in the soil at 0, 5, and 15 cm. The survival time of R. solanacearum A1-9Rif in the ten soil types ranged from 42 up to 77 days. Among the chemical and physical characteristics of the soil, clay content, residual moisture, and available water were positively correlated, and pH was negatively correlated, with survival time, population size at 42 days, and area under the population curve. The pathogen survival differed significantly in relation to the plant tissues, but not with respect to the incorporation depth of the infected tissues. The root tissue of bell pepper supported a larger bacterial population at 7 and 21 days (5 × 104 and 3.1 × 104 CFU g−1 tissue, respectively) compared with the stem tissue (0.35 × 104 and 0.48 × 104 CFU g−1 tissue, respectively) and also had a larger area under the population curve. On the other hand, the stem tissues presented a greater decomposition rate and pH compared with the roots. In conclusion, the different types of studied soils as well as the infected bell pepper tissues were considered potential primary sources of R. solanacearum inocula, but only for a short period.  相似文献

The effects of temperature, free moisture duration and inoculum concentration on infection caused byPseudomonas syringae pv.syringae (Pss), on sweet cherry (Prunus avium) were investigated. Epiphytic populations ofPss are an important source of inoculum for bacterial canker and it has been demonstrated that a cyclic pattern exists during the year, from undetectable during the warm and dry periods to large populations following cool and wet periods. The effects of temperature and inoculum concentration on the infection caused byPss on immature fruits and 1-yr-old twigs were significant (P<0.001). Fruit and twig infection increased linearly in proportion to the logarithm ofPss when bacterial concentrations were higher than 103 cfu ml−1 and temperatures were between 5 and 20°C. Regardless of the inoculum concentration and the free moisture duration, fruit and twig infection was either absent or low at 5°C but it increased linearly as temperature increased from 5 to 20°C. Growth ratein vitro was very slow (0.03–0.04 cfu h−1) at 5°C and fast (0.21–0.23 cfu h−1) at 20°C. Therefore, it is possible that multiplication of the epiphytic populations may be significantly reduced in the field with air temperatures below 5°C. A significant (P<0.001) effect of free moisture was obtained only when a low inoculum concentration (103 cfu ml−1) was used, and a significant linear response between free moisture and disease incidence was obtained only at 10°C. An apparent threshold population ofPss higher than 103 cfu ml−1 was needed to infect immature fruits and 1-yr-old twigs of sweet cherry. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting July 10, 2002.  相似文献

The greater wax moth Galleria mellonella L. (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) is occasionally found in beehives and is a major pest of stored wax. Entomopathogenic fungi have recently received attention as possible biocontrol elements for certain insect pests. In this study, 90 isolates of Beauveria bassiana and 15 isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae were screened for proteases and lipases production. The results showed significant variations in the enzymatic action between the isolates. In the bioassay, the selected isolates evinced high virulence against the 4th instar of the G. mellonella larvae. The isolates BbaAUMC3076, BbaAUMC3263 and ManAUMC3085 realized 100% mortality at concentrations of 5.5 × 106 conidia ml−1, 5.86 × 105 conidia ml−1, and 4.8 × 106 conidia ml−1, respectively. Strong enzymatic activities in vitro did not necessarily indicate high virulence against the tested insect pest. The cuticle of the infected larvae became dark and black-spotted, indicating direct attack of fungus on the defense system of the insects. The LC50 values were 1.43 × 103, 1.04 × 105 and 5.06 × 104 for Bba3263AUMC, Bba3076AUMC and Man3085AUMC, respectively, and their slopes were determined by computerized probit analysis program as 0.738 ± 0.008, 0.635 ± 0.007 and 1.120 ± 0.024, respectively.  相似文献

In this study the effect of different cropping systems and crop successions was evaluated on natural Fusarium sp. contamination and fumonisin levels in corn. The cropping systems consisted of a conventional and no-tillage area cultivated with corn in the summer following either oats or fallow in the winter (2006 and 2007 growing seasons). In addition, the effect of applying nitrogen fertilizer (0, 22.5, 45.0, 90.0 and 90.0 kg ha−1 nitrogen supplemented with potassium oxide) on fumonisin contamination was evaluated in the 2006 growing season. Fusarium sp. was detected in 90% samples in 2006 and in 100% samples in 2007. In both growing seasons, no-till corn following oats showed the highest mean fumonisin levels and differed significantly (P < 0.05) from all the others (2006) and from conventional till corn following either oats or fallow in the winter (2007). Fumonisin levels ranged from 0.13 to 19.52 μg g−1 (mean 6.97 μg g−1) and from 3.70 to 7.75 μg g−1 (mean 6.29 μg g−1) in no-till corn following oats from the 2006 and 2007 growing seasons, respectively. Plots treated with 0 kg ha−1 and 22.5 kg ha−1 nitrogen showed the highest mean fumonisin levels and differed significantly from those with 45.0 and 90 kg ha−1 nitrogen. Fumonisin levels correlated negatively (P < 0.05) with the nitrogen fertilization rates. Although no-till is advantageous from a soil conservation standpoint, it may enhance the potential for fumonisin contamination in corn.  相似文献

A laboratory assay was designed to determine the insecticidal efficacy of Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin (Hyphomycetes: Moniliales) and diatomaceous earth (Diafil 610) against Rhyzopertha dominica (F.) (Coleoptera: Bostrychidae). The fungus B. bassiana was applied at 2.23 × 107, 2.23 × 108 and 2.23 × 109 conidia kg−1 of wheat individually as well as mixed with 200 and 400 ppm of Diafil 610. The conditions for the trials were 30 ± 2oC with 55% r.h. and the counts for mortality were made after 8, 16 and 24 d. All the dead adults were removed after each count and the vials were kept for the next 60 d to assess the emergence of the F1 generation. The findings from these studies proved that the extended exposure interval and the highest combined dose rate of the entomopathogenic fungus and the diatomaceous earth gave the maximum mortality of the beetles. The emergence of the progeny was also highly suppressed where the maximum dose rate of the synergized treatments was applied. The rate of mycosis and sporulation in the cadavers of R. dominica was maximum where the low dose rates of B. bassiana were applied.  相似文献

The baseline sensitivity of Botrytis cinerea to propamidine and assessment of the risk of propamidine resistance in vitro are presented in this article. The baseline sensitivities of 41 wild-type strains were distributed as a unimodal curve with EC50 values of mycelial growth ranging from 0.182 to 1.460 μg ml−1, with a mean of 0.79 ± 0.27 μg ml−1. A total of 10 resistant mutants, obtained from one parental strain, were induced by UV irradiation and selected for resistance to propamidine with an average frequency of 1.98 × 10−9 and 0.025 respectively. These mutants were divided into three classes of resistant phenotypes with low (LR), moderate (MR) and high (HR) levels of resistance, determined by the EC50 values of 5.0–15.0 μg ml−1, 15.1–75.0 μg ml−1 and more than 75.0 μg ml−1 respectively. Neither positive cross-resistance nor negative cross-resistance was detected between propamidine and the fungicides, benzimidazole carbendazim, anilino-pyrimidine pyrimethanil, dicarboximide iprodione or procymidone. All 10 propamidine-resistant mutants showed reduced mycelial growth in vitro, sporulation, spore germination and pathogenicity when compared with the parental strain. These studies demonstrated that propamidine possesses a low risk of resistance developing. However, as B. cinerea is a high-risk pathogen, appropriate precautions against resistance development should be taken.  相似文献

The apple rust mite Aculus schlechtendali (Nal.) (Acari: Eriophyidae), is a main pest in apple-growing areas in Ankara, Turkey, and chemical control applications have some limitations. Entomopathogenic fungi have a potential for biological control of mites. In this study, an entomopathogenic fungus, Paecilomyces lilacinus (Thom) Samson (Deuteromycota: Hyphomycetes), was first isolated from the mite cadavers on Japanese crab apple leaves and pathogenicity of the fungus was observed in different inoculum densities and relative humidities. The pathogen caused up to 98.22% mortality of the mite population. The effects of some fungicides on the entomopathogenic fungus were determined in in vitro studies. Carbendazim, penconazole and tebuconazole were the most effective fungicides on mycelial growth of P. lilacinus, with EC50 values under 3 μg ml−1. In spore germination tests, captan, mancozeb, propineb were the most effective fungicides, followed by tebuconazole, penconazole, nuarimol and chlorothalonil. Sulphur could not inhibit the conidia germination totally at 5,000 μg ml−1. Copper oxychloride and fosetyl-al prevented conidia formation at concentrations above 1,000 μg ml−1.  相似文献

A granulosis virus strain infecting Pieris brassicae (PbGV) was isolated from the dry temperate region of northwestern Himalayas as a potential microbial agent for its management. The effect of different botanicals (having insecticidal action against P. brassicae) on the bioefficacy of PbGV was evaluated under laboratory conditions using leaf disc bioassays on cabbage for improving the insecticidal performance of the PbGV. The synergistic action of different botanical extracts was evident in terms of reduction in LC50 values against different botanical extracts. Among different extracts, petroleum-ether extract of neem seed kernel (NSK) when combined with PbGV resulted in maximum reduction of LC50 value (4.39 × 102 occlusion bodies [OBs] ml−1) followed by methanolic extract (7.38 × 102 OBs ml−1) and aqueous extract (9.36 × 103 OBs ml−1) as compared with PbGV alone (1.85 × 104 OBs ml−1) for 2nd instar larvae of the test insect. These trends were found analogous in cases of 3rd and 4th instars of P. brassicae with different solvent extracts of NSK. The other botanicals evaluated, viz., Eupatorium and Artemesia, also resulted in reduction of LC50 values for 2nd, 3rd and 4th instars as compared with PbGV alone when different extracts were combined with virus for bioassays. The studies suggest that the PbGV in combination with botanical pesticides could be more useful as a bio-pesticide against cabbage butterfly (P. brassicae) in IPM programs.  相似文献

Metalaxyl (Apron 35WS) as a seed treatment has been used extensively to control downy mildew (caused by Sclerospora graminicola) in pearl millet in India. However, the extent of disease control has varied across cultivars, years and locations. We investigated the effects of fungicide dosage, storage time and storage temperature of metalaxyl-treated seed on disease incidence in four pearl millet lines having varying levels of resistance. A linear relationship was found between fungicide dosage (0.5, 1.5 and 2 g a.i. kg−1 seed) and reduction in disease incidence up to 40 days after emergence in all the lines. The normal fungicide dose (2 g a.i. kg−1 seed) protected the crop for up to 20, 40 and 50 days after emergence in highly susceptible (7042S), moderately susceptible (4042R), and moderately resistant (ICMP 451) lines, respectively. However, the quarter and half the normal dosage of fungicide provided protection only up to 20 days after emergence in 7042R and 40 days after emergence in ICMP 451. Storage duration of metalaxyl-treated seed (2 g a.i. kg−1) up to 9 months at 25 ± 2°C did not affect fungicide efficacy. Storage temperatures (5, 25 and 40°C) and duration (30, 60 and 90 days) of metalaxyl-treated seed (2 g a.i. kg−1) showed differential effects in two pearl millet lines 7042S and 843B with downy mildew incidence being significantly lower in 7042S than in 843B. Metalaxyl-treated seed of 7042S and 843B stored at 40°C for different durations showed phytotoxic effects and it was more pronounced in 843B stored for 60 and 90 days where seed germination was inhibited in pot soil.  相似文献

The feeder roots of pepper plants (cv. California Wonder) in Campo de Cartagena (southeast Spain) were found to be severely infected by Meloidogyne incognita. Morphometric traits, differential host test and DNA analysis based on PCR were used to characterize the nematode. Naturally and artificially infected pepper plants showed severe yellowing and stunting, with heavily deformed and damaged root systems. Root galls were spherical and commonly contained more than one female and egg masses with eggs. Typical giant cells with a granular cytoplasm and many hypertrophied nuclei were observed in histological preparations. The relationship between initial nematode population density (Pi) and pepper plant growth was tested in greenhouse experiments with inoculum levels that varied from 0 to 64 eggs and second-stage juveniles (J2) ml−1 soil. A Seinhorst model was fitted to plant height and top fresh weight data of inoculated and non-inoculated plants. The tolerance limit with respect to plant height and fresh top weight of pepper to M. incognita was estimated as 0.85 eggs and J2 ml−1 soil. The minimum relative values (m) for plant height and top fresh weight were 0.15 and 0.16, respectively, at Pi ≥ 64 eggs and J2 ml−1 soil. The maximum nematode reproduction rate (Pf/Pi) was 315.4 at an initial population density (Pi) of 4 eggs and J2 ml−1 soil. The obtained results could be used as a base to establish field experiments that allow strategies to prevent surpassing the threshold of nematodes in fields that are infested.  相似文献

A Gram-negative rhizobacterial isolate (LSW25) antagonistic to Pseudomonas corrugata, a vein necrosis pathogen of tomato, and promotes the growth of tomato seedlings was isolated from surface-sterilised tomato roots. A spontaneous rifampicin-resistant mutant (LSW25R) was selected to facilitate its tracking, and identified as Pseudomonas sp. and named as Pseudomonas sp. LSW25R (LSW25R), based on its sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and 16 S rRNA gene. LSW25R inhibited mycelial growth of 12 other plant fungal pathogens such as Botrytis cinerea on V8 agar plates. By using a scanning electron microscope, LSW25R colonised not only the root surface around the natural aperture of tomato radicles but also under epidermal cells like endophytic bacteria. LSW25R successfully colonised the roots of tomato, eggplant and pepper seedlings, significantly promoted the fresh weight, height and dry matter of tomato plants at 108 cfu·ml−1, and increased the plant growth of eggplants and peppers at 104 cfu·ml−1, suggesting that the optimal population density of LSW25R for growth promotion varies from species to species. Moreover, densities of LSW25R inside roots and the lowest leaf of tomato plants were > 9.3 × 103 cfu·g−1. Although the growth promotion of tomato by LSW25R was observed under N- or Ca-deficient conditions as well as a standard nutrient condition, the uptake of calcium was increased only under the standard nutrient condition. In a hydroponic system, LSW25R not only successfully colonised the rhizosphere during cultivation due to its broad spectrum of antifungal activity and endophytic colonisation, but also reduced blossom-end rot of tomato fruits presumably through increasing calcium uptake.  相似文献

Verticillium longisporum is a soil-borne fungal pathogen causing vascular wilt of Brassica crops. This study was conducted to enhance our knowledge on the host range of V. longisporum. Seven crop species (barley, oat, oilseed rape, pea, red clover, sugar beet and wheat) and five weed species (barren brome, black-grass, charlock, cleavers and scentless mayweed) all common in southern Sweden were evaluated for infection by response to V. longisporum. Oat, spring wheat, oilseed rape, scentless mayweed and charlock inoculated with V. longisporum in a greenhouse showed stunting to various degrees close to the fully ripe stage. Based on the extent of microsclerotia formation, explants were separated into four groups: for pea and wheat, <5% of the samples had formed microsclerotia; for scentless mayweed, 5–10%; for oat, 10–20%; and for charlock and oilseed rape >80%. The results suggest that plant species outside the Brassicaceae can act as reservoirs of V. longisporum inoculum. Soil inoculum densities in nine fields were monitored over a period of 12 months, which ranged from 1 to 48 cfu g−1 soil. Density of microsclerotia was lowest just after harvest, reaching its maximum six months later. No significant correlation between inoculum density in soil and disease incidence on oilseed rape plants was found. However, the data suggest that a threshold of 1 cfu g−1 soil is needed to cause disease on oilseed rape. Species identification based on microsclerotia morphology and PCR analysis showed that V. longisporum dominated in soil of seven, and V. dahliae in two of the nine fields studied.  相似文献

Deep bark canker (DBC) of walnut is caused by the bacterium Brenneria rubrifaciens which produces the red pigment rubrifacine. This disease of English walnut trees, is characterized by deep vertical cankers which exude sap laden with B. rubrifaciens. Although DBC is not observed on young trees, it is hypothesized that B. rubrifaciens is present in host tissue years before symptom development. Therefore, a sensitive technique would be useful in detecting B. rubrifaciens in asymptomatic trees. Tn5 mutants deficient in rubrifacine production (pig ) were generated and DNA sequences from pig mutants were used to design two primer sets; GSP1F–GSP1R and GSP2F–GSP2R. A third primer pair, BR1–BR3 was designed from the 16S rRNA gene. The three primer pairs did not amplify the diagnostic bands from members of the following bacterial genera: Agrobacterium, Erwinia, Pseudomonas, Ralstonia, and Rhizobium. In addition, no amplification was observed using DNA from the following Brenneria species, alni, nigrifluens, quercina, or salicis. All three DNA primer sets detected B. rubrifaciens in spiked greenhouse soil and infiltrated walnut leaf tissue. PCR detection limits for BR, GSP1, and GSP2 primer pairs were 254, 254, and 2.54 × 104 colony forming units (CFU) respectively. Real-time PCR detection limit for BR primers was 8 CFU. The differential medium, yeast extract dextrose calcium carbonate agar (YDCA) was amended with novobiocin, and bacitracin, to enhance isolation from environmental samples. The improved detection and isolation methods described here will facilitate examination of B. rubrifaciens ecology under both nursery and orchard conditions.  相似文献

Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli and its variant fuscans are the causal agents of common bacterial blight of bean. Production of seeds is recommended in arid climates with the use of pathogen-free seeds. However, contamination of seeds still occurs in these seed production areas. To verify if low contamination levels of sown seeds could explain these field contaminations, we used seeds that were naturally contaminated with CFBP4834-R, a rifamycin-resistant X. axonopodis pv. phaseoli fuscous strain, to contaminate field plots at different rates. We also inoculated seeds to verify some parameters of plant colonization and seed transmission. In growth chambers, seedling contamination was always successful from seeds contaminated with CFBP4834-R having population sizes greater than 1 × 103 CFU seed−1 and were not successful below 1 × 102 CFU seed−1. In the greenhouse, the efficiency of contamination of seeds was not significantly different between contaminated plants that had a low or a high CFBP4834-R population size and reached between 40% and 52% whatever the origin of the inoculum (aerial or seed-borne). In field experiments, under low relative humidity, plots with 0.1–0.003% contamination rates or plots sown with seeds that were inoculated with low CFBP4834-R population sizes (1 × 102 and 1 × 104 CFU seed−1) led to an asymptomatic colonization of bean during the entire growing season with low CFBP4834-R population sizes. Seeds were contaminated both in primary and secondary foci. The contamination of seeds without symptom expression during the growing season represents a risk for eventual disease outbreaks.  相似文献

Bacterial blight disease of Persian walnut (Juglans regia, L.), caused by Xanthomonas arboricola pv. juglandis (Xaj), leads to significant nut losses in northern, central and western areas of Iran. To identify the natural sources of resistance to disease in the endemic walnut genotypes of Iran, sixteen walnut genotypes, collected from different areas of Hamedan province, were inoculated with Xaj in a randomized complete block design with five replicates for each genotype. Two-year old genotypes were gently sprayed with a suspension of bacteria adjusted to approximately 2 × 109 cfu ml−1 of distilled water in May. Infected leaves were rated for disease 28 and 42 days after inoculation, using a 0 to 5 severity scale, based on the number, size and distribution of lesions on the leaves. Data analyses showed that there were variations among genotypes in response to pathogen. Upon inoculation by bacterial suspension genotype 94 showed the highest resistance to both disease incidence and its progress after 4–6 weeks of infection. Genotype 65 showed high susceptibility to disease and genotype 69 showed high susceptibilities both to disease incidence and its progress after 4–6 weeks of infection.  相似文献

Fusarium graminearum and F. verticillioides are among the most important pathogens causing ear rot of maize in Central Europe. Our objectives were to (1) compare eight isolates of each species on two susceptible inbred lines for their variation in ear rot rating and mycotoxin production across 3 years, and (2) analyse two susceptible and three resistant inbred lines for potential isolate x line interactions across 2 years by silk-channel inoculation. Ear rot rating, zearalenone (ZEA) and deoxynivalenol (DON) concentrations were evaluated for all F. graminearum isolates. In addition, nivalenol (NIV) concentrations were analysed for two NIV producers. Fumonisin (FUM) concentrations were measured for all F. verticillioides isolates. Mean ear rot severity was highest for DON producers of F. graminearum (62.9% of the ear covered by mycelium), followed by NIV producers of the same species (24.2%) and lowest for F. verticillioides isolates (9.8%). For the latter species, ear rot severities differed highly among years (2006: 24%, 2007: 3%, 2008: 7%). Mycotoxin concentrations among isolates showed a broad range (DON: 100–284 mg kg−1, NIV: 15–38 mg kg−1, ZEA: 1.1–49.5 mg kg−1, FUM: 14.5–57.5 mg kg−1). Genotypic variances were significant for isolates and inbred lines in all traits and for both species. Isolate x line interactions were significant only for ear rot rating (P < 0.01) and DON concentration (P < 0.05) of the F. graminearum isolates, but no rank reversals occurred. Most isolates were capable of differentiating the susceptible from the resistant lines for ear rot severity. For resistance screening, a sufficiently aggressive isolate should be used to warrant maximal differentiation among inbred lines. With respect to F. verticillioides infections, high FUM concentrations were found in grains from ears with minimal disease symptoms.  相似文献

From 2004 to 2006, 213 isolates of Botrytis cinerea never exposed to QO center inhibitors (QOIs) were collected to determine the baseline sensitivity to azoxystrobin. In the absence of salicylhydroxamic acid (SHAM), the mean EC50 values were 10.49 ± 13.12 and 0.36 ± 0.48 mg l−1 for inhibiting mycelial growth and conidium germination, respectively. In the presence of SHAM, the mean EC50 values were 2.24 ± 1.29 and 0.22 ± 0.11 mg l−1. In 2010, five azoxystrobin-resistant isolates were detected with the resistance frequency of 2.25% in greenhouse tomatoes after 4 years of continuous exposure. These resistant isolates showed cross-resistance to other QOIs but not to boscalid. In addition, these resistant isolates had comparable growth, sporulation and pathogenicity ability as sensitive isolates and maintained resistance in plants and the presence of SHAM. The G143A point mutation predicted to cause a change from glycine to alanine at codon 143 of cyt b gene was found in all resistant isolates.  相似文献
