The plant cuticle is a highly complex membrane which forms the outer surface of the aerial portion of plants. The nature of the plant cuticle is reviewed with particular regard to its action as a potential barrier to the penetration of pesticide molecules; the role of the cuticular waxes is highlighted. The physicochemical properties of the cuticle influence the behaviour of spray droplets and, in turn, may affect the rate and efficiency of cuticle penetration. The permeation of active ingredients is influenced by their solubility characteristics as indicated by octanol/water (log Kow) and cuticle/water (Kcw) partition coefficients. Penetration of hydrophilic compounds (low log Kow) may be enhanced by hydration of the cuticle, while transcuticular transport of non-polar solutes (high log Kow) is increased by factors which reduce wax viscosity. The use of in-vitro models involving isolated cuticle membranes, isolated cuticle waxes, or isolated leaves has helped to focus on the activities of the cuticle in the absence of other physiological factors. Using these systems, the role of the waxes as a transport-limiting barrier has been identified and the factors influencing sorption, permeance and desorption examined. The action of surfactants, in vitro and in vivo, has been briefly addressed in regard to their role in facilitating cuticle penetration; other steps involving surfactant/solute/cuticle are complex, and synergy appears to depend on a number of factors including test species, concentration of active ingredient, surfactant type and concentration. Adjuvants may greatly influence the surface properties of the droplet, predispose the cuticle to solute transport, and enhance pesticide activity. The nature of these complex inter-relationships is discussed. © 1999 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

There are relatively few bacterial diseases of roots, in comparison to those of aerial plant tissues. Numerous species and pathovars of Pseudomonas,Erwinia and Xanthomonas are important pathogens of leaf and stem tissue on dozens of plant families but these bacterial genera only infrequently attack roots or other underground plant structures. In contrast, there is a growing list of Streptomyces species that are very effective root pathogens. These filamentous, Gram-positive bacteria can cause scab, rot and gall diseases of plant roots and other underground plant structures. The best known pathogenic Streptomyces species is S. scabiei. Horizontal transfer of pathogenicity genes among diverse scab-causing streptomycetes appears to explain the emergence of several new plant pathogens over the last half century. It is proposed that the ability to penetrate plant tissue is essential for successful root infection as there are few natural openings in roots. In contrast, leaves have many natural openings that allow bacteria access to the interior tissues. Thaxtomin, a phytotoxin produced by many plant pathogenic streptomycetes, appears to aid penetration of developing plant tissues by inhibiting primary cell wall development. 相似文献

1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(2,6-dichlorobenzoyl)-urea, PH 60-38 and 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(2,6-difluorobenzoyl)-urea, PH 60-40, are representatives of a new class of insecticides with an unprecedented mode of action. Susceptibility of insect species of different orders is demonstrated and the compounds are expected to be quite safe towards mammals. The compounds are stomach poisons and they are not plant systemic. Their insecticidal activity demonstrates itself mainly as a failure to moult or pupate, resulting in death. Histological examination revealed the cause of this failure to be a defect in the process of cuticle deposition. 相似文献

Cuticle consists of chitin microfibrils embedded in a matrix composed largely of hydrated proteins. The effect of diflubenzuron, an inhibitor of chitin synthetase, on the deposition of both these components is reviewed. The polymerisation reaction is but one step in the pathway leading to chitin microfibrils. Possibly interactions to other steps in the pathway serve to enhance the consequences of the inhibition. Such enhancement could help to explain the abrupt changes in the rate of chitin synthesis that can be observed as diflubenzuron is cleared from epidermal cells. Cuticle proteins differ widely in their ability to form a stable layer when chitin is largely absent. In the most stable regions, diflubenzuron has no effect on the amount or nature of the proteins deposited. In contrast, there are many regions where the deposition of solid cuticle is stopped, presumably because the proteins involved cannot form a coherent layer. Intermediate degrees of stability are found. There is an association between the regions of stability and those of high sclerotisation; though sclerotisation often takes place long after deposition. Even when the protein layer is fairly stable it may not be deposited in a regular manner. This statement is illustrated by electron micrographs of cuticle from the hind tibiae of adult locusts. These micrographs also show that diflubenzuron can affect epidermal cells. In normal cells the plaques are in contact with the newly secreted cuticle; they are still present but this contact is not maintained after treatment with diflubenzuron. 相似文献

Fungus-growing ants have been found recently to be symbiotic with actinomycetes living on the ant’s cuticle; these bacteria
are inhibitory to soil fungi that are detrimental to the ants’ fungus gardens. In order to investigate whether actinomycetes
found on the cuticle of attine ants also had inhibitory properties against plant pathogenic fungi, we isolated 32 strains
of actinomycetes from fungus-growing ants (Atta, Trachymyrmex, andCyphomyrmex), from the Mexican states of Coahuila, Nuevo León and Tamaulipas. Of the actinomycetes tested against selected plant pathogenic
fungi (Alternaria solani, Aspergillus flavus, Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, Rhizoctonia solani, Sclerotium sp.) on Czapek-Dox agar medium, 13 isolates inhibited at least one of the fungi.C. lindemuthianum was inhibited by 11 actinomycetes, andRhizoctonia by three. An actinomycete strain isolated fromCyphomyrmex rimosus inhibited all five fungi tested.

The functions, structure and biochemistry of the insect cuticle in relation to the moulting cycle are briefly reviewed as an introduction to the actions of insecticides that act on the cuticle, particularly acylureas. The symptoms of poisoning with diflubenzuron (DFB) and other acylureas are consistent with ultra-structural and biochemical evidence that these insecticides inhibit the formation of chitin microfibrils in newly synthesised cuticle. It is probable that DFB acts at a late stage in chitin biosynthesis, perhaps inhibiting chitin synthase (CS) itself. However, the results of studies using cell-free preparations of CS have not, on the whole, supported this hypothesis. A number of alternative suggestions as to the mode of action of DFB are reviewed. Among the most attractive of these is the possibility that DFB may inhibit the transmembrane transport of chitin synthesis precursors from their site of production within the epidermal cells to the site of the final poly condensation reaction, presumably at the apical membrane of the epidermal microvilli. 相似文献

On a deglaciated terrain, glacial gravel is the primary component of the natural habitat for vascular plant colonization and succession. Knowledge regarding the role of glacial gravel in vascular plant growth, however, remains limited. In this study, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) was used to investigate plant family composition, species richness, fractional vegetation cover (FVC), and gravel cover (GC) along elevational gradients on the three glacier forelands (Kekesayi, Jiangmanjiaer, and Koxkar Baxi) of the Third Pole (including the eastern Pamir Plateau and western Tianshan Mountains) in China. We then analyzed the spatial characteristics of vascular plants followed by exploring the effect of glacial gravel on vascular plants. Findings indicated that FVC on these glacier forelands generally decreased as the elevation increased or distance from the current glacier terminus decreased. The shady slope (Kekesayi) was more vegetated in comparison to the sunny slope (Jiangmanjiaer) at the glacier basin scale, and the warm and humid deglaciated terrain (Koxkar Baxi) had the highest FVC at the regional scale. Plant family composition and species richness on the glacier forelands decreased with rising elevation, with the exception of those on the Jiangmanjiaer glacier foreland. The relationships between FVC and GC presented negative correlations; particularly, they exhibited variations in power functions on the Kekesayi and Jiangmanjiaer glacier forelands of the eastern Pamir Plateau and a linear function on the Koxkar Baxi glacier foreland of the western Tianshan Mountains. Glacial gravel was found to be conducive to vegetation colonization and development in the early succession stage up until vascular plants adapted to the cold and arid climatic condition, whereas it is unfavorable to the expansion of vascular plants in the later succession stage. These findings suggested that the spatial difference of plant characteristics had close connections with regional climatic and topographic conditions, as well as glacial gravel distribution. In addition, we concluded that aerial photographs can be an asset for studying the functions of micro-environment in vegetation colonization as well as succession on the glacier forelands. 相似文献

Application of small amounts of glyphosate and aminotriazole to the top 2–3 leaves of potato stems killed those stems. Untreated stems attached to the same plant did not die, although they showed symptoms of herbicide damage. Glyphosate caused the death of the apices of the untreated stems, growth of axillary buds and sometimes aerial tuberization. Concentrations of glyphosate between 025 and 8% a.i. and of aminotriazole between 1 and 4% a.i. achieved equally good control of treated stems, although the higher concentrations worked more quickly and generally resulted in more symptoms on the untreated stems. The more stems that were treated on a particular plant, the greater the symptoms on the untreated ones. When all the stems were treated, no healthy tubers were produced; when only some were treated, both healthy and deformed tubers were found at harvest. The effects on the untreated stems are examined in relation to the translocation of glyphosate and the anatomy of the potato plant. 相似文献

ABSTRACT During formation of appressoria produced from conidia and ascospores of Venturia inaequalis, a dark brown ring structure was detected at the base of appressoria. This melanized appressorial ring structure (MARS) was attached to the leaf surface like a sealing ring and formed the fungus-plant interface; it is believed to be required for pathogen penetration of the cuticle. Neither germ tubes nor infection structures beneath the cuticle were found to be visibly melanized. MARS were formed not only on apple leaves but also on leaves of nonhost plants and artificial surfaces differing in hydrophobicity; the formation of appressoria and MARS was confined to hard surfaces. The melanin nature of the ring was confirmed by using melanin biosynthesis inhibitors. Applications prior to inoculation largely inhibited the melanization and reduced infection rate by 45 to 80%; curative applications were not effective. Transmission electron microscopy verified a localized melanization of the cell wall around the penetration pore, and melanin was incorporated into all layers of the fungal cell wall. Appressoria without MARS were not able to infect the plant, suggesting that this structure can be considered to be a pathogenicity factor in V. inaequalis. 相似文献

A detailed study of conidial germination, germ-tube growth and the formation of infection structures in Phoma clematidina , the causal agent of clematis wilt, is described for two clematis varieties differing in disease resistance. On both the resistant and susceptible varieties, the fungus entered leaves and stems by direct penetration of the cuticle, often, but not always, following the formation of infection structures. More germ tubes per conidium were formed on the susceptible host, but these germ tubes were on average shorter than on the resistant host. Although germ tubes regularly entered the plant via trichomes, stomata were not found to be sites of entry. Following penetration of the cuticle of resistant plants, germ-tube growth was sometimes restricted to the subcuticular region, and halo formation occurred at the sites where penetration was attempted. Subcuticular growth and halo formation were not observed on susceptible plants. These observations may partly explain the resistance of small-flowered clematis varieties to P. clematidina . 相似文献

Housefly larvae of 2 days of age were allowed to grow in media containing 0, 0.4, 1.0, or 2.5 ppm TH 6040[1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(2,6-difluorobenzoyl)-urea] for 3 days prior to analysis of the cuticle for structural components (chitin and protein) or enzymes important in cuticle formation (chitinase and phenoloxidase). As the TH 6040 concentration is increased, the amount of chitin is progressively reduced such that, at 2.5 ppm TH 6040, the level is only 25% of normal. The amount of cuticle protein is unaffected so the protein: chitin ratio increases from 3.4 in the control larvae to 14.3 in 2.5 ppm-treated larvae, an alteration which probably affects the elasticity and firmness of the endocuticle. Dietary TH 6040 at 1.0 ppm increases the cuticle chitinase activity to about 180% and the cuticle phenoloxidase activity to 155% as compared with control larvae, with a further chitinase activity increase to 240% of normal at 2.5 ppm TH 6040. These enzyme changes are expected to hamper the build-up or maintenance of the cuticle chitin and enhance sclerotization of the exocuticle. 相似文献

Surface structures of males and females of Setaria labiatopapillosa were studied by means of scanning electron microscopy at high magnification. It was found that the surface of buccal cavity, lateral appendages, vulva, anus and cloaca differs from the remaining cuticle. The shape of internal and external mouth papillae, amphids, deirids, postdeirid and phasmidial pore was studied. On the surface of the postdeirid are four small papillae arranged in a typical manner around the depression from which projects a needle-like formation. The ventral bands are formed by fine longitudinal parallel folds of the cuticle. Some anomalies in the localization of postcloacal papillae were observed. 相似文献

The distribution of 2.5 mM-[14C]MCPA 1 MCPA = (2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid). and [14C]MCPB 2 MCPB = (4-(2-methyI-4-chlorophenoxy) butyric acid). formulated as sodium salts with 0.05% tergitol, have been investigated when applied to an isolated leaf/agar block sink system of Vicia faba L. Results are presented which show the effect on absorption and translocation of method of application, age of treatment leaf, treatment period, pretreatment with 5 μM ATP and removal of cuticle wax by chloroform wipe treatment. Significant negative correlations between cuticle wax fixation/translocation and leaf tissue content/translocation were recorded for both compounds, particularly MCPB, suggesting the involvement of both physicochemical and metabolic components in the process of absorption and translocation. The nature of the mechanisms involved was further investigated using isolated cuticle/epidermal systems and tightly-coupled mitochondria isolated from roots of V. faba L. The results suggest that non-movement of MCPB in this species is largely due to its enhanced retention within the cuticle and to the fact that it is a more effective uncoupler of oxidative phosphorylation than MCPA. The importance of these findings in terms of the relative efficiency of translocation of MCPA and MCPB when applied in vivo is discussed. 相似文献

Though adjuvants are abundant in almost every pesticide solution, their mode of action is still not completely clear. Studies on their way through the cuticle are quite difficult due to a lack of radiolabelled surfactants. In this study we want to present the results of an experiment conducted to evaluate the mode of action of an ethoxylated soybean oil (ESBO) adjuvant. To evaluate the route of ESBO through the cuticle it was labelled with fluorescein and applied to one leaf of different test species (Abutilon theophrasti, Sinapis arvensis and Beta vulgaris). Treated leaves were harvested and rinsed with either deionised water, methanol/water or chloroform. The fluorescein content of washed leaves and the solution in which they were washed were analysed with High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) coupled with an UV detector. Results lead to the assumption that ESBO passed through the cuticle. If this holds true, ESBO was able to reach the underlying cell tissue where it might have been metabolised or even translocated to other plant parts. Though a lot of research has to be conducted on the mechanism and mode of action of adjuvants, this study gives an approach to investigate the behavior of foliar applied adjuvants. 相似文献

Studies were conducted on the effects of seasonal levels of relative humidity, temperature, and total radiation, on dry weight of petals, on fresh weight of epicuticular wax and of cuticle of petals, on numbers ofBotrytis cinerea lesions in petals, and on preharvest flowering periods in gerbera and rose. No temporal relationships or significant correlations were found among dry weight of petals, weight of wax and cuticle of petals, and numbers of lesions on the petals. Temperature, relative humidity and total radiation did not correlate significantly with dry weight of petals, or with fresh weights of wax and cuticle of petals, except for a positive correlation between relative humidity and cuticle weight in the gerbera cultivar Delphi. No relation was found between weight of epicuticular wax and cuticle of petals and susceptibility of gerbera and rose petals toB. cinerea. The thickness of wax and cuticle on flowers did not seem to be an important factor influencing the susceptibility of flowers toB. cinerea. The seasonal pattern in number of lesions produced on the flowers byB. cinerea was related to the effects of relative humidity and radiation on infectivity of conidia of the pathogen on the flower surface but not to the effects on the susceptibility of flowers. 相似文献

The release of diffusible substances from plant leaves, fungal spores or from pollen into water droplets on the surface of leaves is discussed in relation to (1) direct and indirect effects on spores of pathogens and (2) the effect on the growth of saprophytic micro-organisms. Evidence suggests that competition for nutrients in droplets on leaves may limit germination of spores of some pathogens. Modification of the chemical environment of leaf surfaces by saprophytic micro-organisms is discussed in relation to lytic enzyme and antibiotic production, cuticle degradation, production of growth substances and fixation of nitrogen. Examples are given of the effect on pathogenic fungi of diffusible toxins from leaves and inhibitors associated with surface wax. Treatments of leaves that remove or reduce surface wax can result in a stimulation of spore germination of some pathogenic fungi. The possible occurrence of phytoalexins on leaf surfaces prior to entry of pathogens into leaves is discussed in relation to differences in host-pathogen interaction. 相似文献

Role of Extracellular Polysaccharide and Endoglucanase in Root Invasion and Colonization of Tomato Plants by Ralstonia solanacearum 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
ABSTRACT Ralstonia solanacearum is a soilborne plant pathogen that normally invades hosts through their roots and then systemically colonizes aerial tissues. Previous research using wounded stem infection found that the major factor in causing wilt symptoms was the high-molecular-mass acidic extracellular polysaccharide (EPS I), but the beta-1,4-endoglucanase (EG) also contributes to virulence. We investigated the importance of EPS I and EG for invasion and colonization of tomato by infesting soil of 4-week-old potted plants with either a wild-type derivative or genetically well-defined mutants lacking EPS I, EG, or EPS I and EG. Bacteria of all strains were recovered from surface-disinfested roots and hypocotyls as soon as 4 h after inoculation; that bacteria were present internally was confirmed using immunofluorescence microscopy. However, the EPS-minus mutants did not colonize stems as rapidly as the wild type and the EG-minus mutant. Inoculations of wounded petioles also showed that, even though the mutants multiplied as well as the wild type in planta, EPS-minus strains did not spread as well throughout the plant stem. We conclude that poor colonization of stems by EPS-minus strains after petiole inoculation or soil infestation is due to reduced bacterial movement within plant stem tissues. 相似文献
