Calcisol, ferralsol and vertisol soils, representative of different bean production areas of Villa Clara province in Cuba, were selected to determine the impact of soil type on bean hypocotyl rot severity caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG4 HGI (isolate CuVC-Rs7). In inoculated autoclaved soil, hypocotyl rot was most severe in calcisol soil, followed by ferralsol soils and then vertisol soils. In inoculated natural soils, disease severity was lower in vertisol and calcisol soils and higher in ferralsol soil, indicating that biological factors are suppressing or stimulating the pathogenic efficiency of R. solani. Native binucleate Rhizoctonia AGF, Sclerotium rolfsii and R. solani AG 4 HGI were isolated from bean plants grown in natural calcisol, vertisol and ferralsol soils, respectively. Subsequent studies about the interaction between these fungi and R. solani indicated that they were involved in the variability of disease severity caused by R. solani. The addition of R. solani AG4 HGI (isolate CuVC-Rs7) into each autoclaved soil inoculated with binucleate Rhizoctonia or S. rolfsii resulted in a reduction of disease severity caused by this pathogen while in soils inoculated with native R. solani AG4 HGI, disease severity increased. Irrespective of fungal interactions, calcisol was always the most disease conducive soil and vertisol the most disease repressive soil. The mechanisms by which native pathogenic fungi could influence disease severity caused by R. solani are discussed.  相似文献

Disease suppressiveness against Rhizoctonia solani AG 2-1 in cauliflower was studied in two marine clay soils with a sandy loam texture. The soils had a different cropping history. One soil had a long-term (40 years) cauliflower history and was suppressive, the other soil was conducive and came from a pear orchard not having a cauliflower crop for at least 40 years. These two soils were subjected to five successive cropping cycles with cauliflower or remaining fallow in a greenhouse experiment. Soils were inoculated with R. solani AG 2-1 only once or before every crop. Disease decline occurred in all treatments cropped with cauliflower, either because of a decreased pathogen population or increased suppressiveness of the soil. Disease suppressiveness tests indicated that the conducive soil became suppressive after five subsequent cauliflower crops inoculated each cycle with R. solani AG 2-1. Suppressiveness of all treatments was measured in a seed germination test (pre-emergence damping-off) as well as by measuring the spread of R. solani symptoms in young plants (post-emergence damping-off). Results showed that suppressiveness was significantly stimulated by the successive R. solani inoculations; presence of the cauliflower crop had less effect. Suppressiveness was of biological origin, since it disappeared after sterilization of the soil. Moreover, suppressiveness could be translocated by adding 10% suppressive soil into sterilized soil. The suppressive soil contained higher numbers of culturable filamentous actinomycetes than the conducive soil, but treatments enhancing suppressiveness did not show an increased actinomycetes population. The suppressiveness of the soil samples did also not correlate with the number of pseudomonads. Moreover, no correlation was found with the presence of different mycoparasitic fungi, i.e. Volutella spp., Gliocladium roseum, Verticillium biguttatum and Trichoderma spp. The suppressive soil contained a high percentage of bacteria with a strong in vitro inhibition of R. solani. These bacteria were identified as Lysobacter (56%), Streptomyces (23%) and Pseudomonas (21%) spp. A potential role of Lysobacter in soil suppressiveness was confirmed by quantitative PCR detection (TaqMan), since a larger Lysobacter population was present in suppressive cauliflower soil than in conducive pear orchard soil. Our experiments showed that successive cauliflower plantings can cause a decline of the damage caused by R. solani AG 2-1, and that natural disease suppressiveness was most pronounced after subsequent inoculations with the pathogen. The mode of action of the decline is not yet understood, but antagonistic Lysobacter spp. are potential key organisms.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of sewage sludge on soil suppressiveness to the pathogens Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici on tomato, Sclerotium rolfsii on bean, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on tomato, Rhizoctonia solani on radish, Pythium spp. on cucumber, and Ralstonia solanacearum on tomato. Soil samples were collected from an experimental corn field in which sewage sludge had been incorporated once a year, since 1999. Sludge from two sewage treatment stations in Brazil (Franca and Barueri, SP) were applied at the rates of one (1N), two (2N), four (4N) and eight (8N) times the N recommended doses for the corn crop. Soil suppressiveness was evaluated by methods using indicator host plants, baits and mycelial growth. There was no effect of sewage sludge on soil suppressiveness to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici in tomato plants. For S. rolfsii, reduction of the disease in bean was inversely proportional to the dose of Franca sludge. The incidence of dead plants, caused by S. sclerotiorum, was directly proportional to sludge doses applied. For R. solani and R. solanacearum, there was a linear trend with reduction in plant death in soils treated with increasing amounts of sludge from Franca. There was an increase in the pathogen community of Pythium spp., proportional to the amounts of sewage applied. The effects of sewage sludge varied depending on the pathogen, methodology applied and on the time interval between the sewage sludge incorporation and soil sampling.  相似文献

Rhizoctonia solani causes worldwide losses in numerous crops. Sclerotia of R. solani remain viable for several years in soil and are an important source of primary infection. In this study the effect of soil incorporation of Kraft pine lignin, a side product of the paper industry, on viability of R. solani AG1-1B sclerotia was investigated. The efficacy of lignin was assessed in a sandy loam (Oppuurs) and a silt loam soil (Leest) collected from commercial fields in Belgium. Evaluating sclerotial viability after 4 weeks incubation in the two soils amended with 1% (w/w) Kraft pine lignin demonstrated a soil-dependent effect. In Leest soil the addition of lignin resulted in a significantly reduced sclerotial viability, together with an increased mycoparasitism by Trichoderma spp.; in Oppuurs soil, on the other hand, only a slight and insignificant reduction in sclerotial viability was observed. Based on phospholipid fatty acid analysis, different changes in microbial community structure upon lignin amendment were detected in the two soils. Both amended soils showed a significant increase in Gram negative bacteria. In Leest soil this increase was accompanied with a significantly higher increase in fungi and actinomycetes compared with Oppuurs soil. In addition, Kraft pine lignin resulted in both soils in a small but significant increase in manganese peroxidase activity and this increase tended to be higher in Leest soil. Manganese peroxidase produced by lignin-degrading basidiomycetes has previously been shown to degrade melanin, which protects the sclerotia against biotic and abiotic stress. We hypothesize that lignin-degrading fungi increased the susceptibility of the sclerotia to sclerotial antagonists such as Trichoderma, Gram negative bacteria and actinomycetes. Clearly, the effect observed here did not rely on the stimulation of one microbial group, but is the result of an interaction of different groups.  相似文献

A cultivation-based approach was used to determine the in vitro antagonistic potential of soil bacteria towards Rhizoctonia solani AG3 and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini (Foln3). Four composite soil samples were collected from four agricultural sites with previous documentation of disease suppression, located in France (FR), the Netherlands (NL), Sweden (SE) and the United Kingdom (UK). Similarly, two sites from Germany (Berlin, G-BR; and Braunschweig, G-BS) without documentation of disease suppression were sampled. Total bacterial counts were determined by plating serial dilutions from the composite soil samples onto R2A, AGS and King's B media. A total of 1,788 isolates (approximately 100 isolates per medium and site) was screened for antifungal activity, and in vitro antagonists (327 isolates) were found amongst the dominant culturable bacteria isolated from all six soils. The overall proportion of antagonists and the number of isolates with inhibitory activity against F. oxysporum were highest in three of the suppressive soils (FR, NL and SE). Characterization of antagonistic bacteria revealed a high phenotypic and genotypic diversity. Siderophore and protease activity were the most prominent phenotypic traits amongst the antagonists. The composition and diversity of antagonists in each soil was site-specific. Nevertheless, none of the antimicrobial traits of bacteria potentially contributing to soil suppressiveness analyzed in this study could be regarded as specific to a given site.  相似文献

Compost is often reported as a substrate that is able to suppress soilborne plant pathogens, but suppression varies according to the type of compost and pathosystem. Reports often deal with a single pathogen while in reality crops are attacked by multiple plant pathogens. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the disease suppression ability of a wide range of composts for a range of plant pathogens. This study was conducted by a consortium of researchers from several European countries. Composts originated from different countries and source materials including green and yard waste, straw, bark, biowaste and municipal sewage. Suppressiveness of compost-amended (20% vol./vol.) peat-based potting soil was determined against Verticillium dahliae on eggplant, Rhizoctonia solani on cauliflower, Phytophthora nicotianae on tomato, Phytophthora cinnamomi on lupin and Cylindrocladium spathiphylli on Spathiphyllum sp., and of compost-amended loamy soil (20% vol./vol.) against R. solani on Pinus sylvestris and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini on flax. From the 120 bioassays involving 18 composts and 7 pathosystems, significant disease suppression was found in 54% of the cases while only 3% of the cases showed significant disease enhancement. Pathogens were affected differently by the composts. In general, prediction of disease suppression was better when parameters derived from the compost mixes were used rather than those derived from the pure composts. Regression analyses of disease suppression of the individual pathogens with parameters of compost-amended peat-based mixes revealed the following groupings: (1) competition-sensitive: F. oxysporum and R. solani/cauliflower; (2) rhizosphere-affected: V. dahliae; (3) pH-related: P. nicotianae; and (4) specific/unknown: R. solani/pine, P. cinnamomi and C. spathiphylli. It was concluded that application of compost has in general a positive or no effect on disease suppression, and only rarely a disease stimulating effect.  相似文献

Plants of the Brassicaceae contain glucosinolates, the hydrolysis products of which inhibit the growth of many soil-borne fungi that cause plant disease. However, amending soil with green manures of these plants gives inconsistent control of several soil-borne diseases, including those caused by Rhizoctonia solani. To identify factors that contribute to this inconsistency we investigated, in the laboratory and in pot experiments in the glasshouse, the saprophytic behaviour of R. solani AG2-1 (ZG5) in a sandy soil amended with various green manures. Fresh material from either Brassica napus var. Karoo, B. napus B1, B. napus B2, B. nigra, Diplotaxis tenuifolia (a brassicaceous weed) and the non-Brassicaceae species, oat (Avena sativa) or lupin (Lupinus angustifolius) was used at 10 or 100 g of fresh material kg−1 of dry soil in Lancelin sand. At 100 g kg−1 the volatiles of all green manures reduced the hyphal growth of R. solani, except for B. napus B1. D. tenuifolia at 100 g kg−1 inhibited the growth and sclerotial formation of R. solani. Most green manures at 10 g kg−1, and at 40% water holding capacity, stimulated the growth of R. solani for up to 3 months and increased the activity of other microbes. R. solani infected the brassicaceous plants when growing and colonized the residues mixed with soil at 10 g kg−1. This inoculum increased the severity of damping-off in canola, by 27%. Disease was particularly severe when the green manure species, except D. tenuifolia and oat, were grown in situ and residues returned to the pot from which they came, before sowing canola. There is a potential hazard in applying green manures of Brassica species as their residues can, under certain conditions, support the saprophytic activity of R. solani which increases damping-off in canola sown in the amended soils.  相似文献

Summary An investigation was conducted during the summer months of 1986–1987 and 1987–1988 in Western Australia to evaluate the effect of soil solarization on the control of root rot of gerbera an also on the microbial and nutrient status of the soil. Infested soil cores were sampled from a site where root-rot was a severe problem and were removed to a non-infested site where they were subjected to soil solarization or fumigation. Soil solarization resulted in reduced root rot (root disease index 28.6%) in comparison to the untreated control (52.0%) 8 months after planting. Plants in the fumigated plots had 15.8% less disease than those in solarized plots. Solarization increased the total numbers of bacteria and actinomycetes, and the proportion of bacteria and fungi antogonistic to Fusarium oxysporum, F. solani and Rhizoctonia solani. The proportion of actinomycetes antagonistic to these fungi, however, did not differ between solarized and control soil treatments. There was a significant reduction in disease in plants grown in infested fumigated soil to which a 10% concentration of solarized soil had been added, suggesting the development of microbial suppression in solarized soil. Phytophthora cryptogea was eradicated to 30 cm by solarization as well as by fumigation. Solarization eliminated R. solani but not F. oxysporum to a soil depth of 10 cm. Solarization increased the levels of NO n3 – -N and NH4 +-N in soil, but did not affect the concentrations of PO4 3–, K+, Fe2+, organic C and pH. Yield (as number of flowers per plant) was increased by soil solarization and by fumigation.Increased yields and decreased disease severity in the solarized plots could have been caused by (1) a reduction in the infectivity of the infested soils, (2) an increase in the suppressiveness of the soil, and (3) an increased available of plant nutrients.  相似文献

Most studies on soil fungi have been carried out with little explicit characterisation of soil structure within which fungi spread and biotic interactions occur. In this paper we use a combination of epidemiological (colonisation efficiency) and soil bio-physical (thin sectioning) techniques to investigate the role of macropores in soil on the spread of a fungal colony. Macropores, in the form of gaps orientated in various directions, were artificially introduced in replicated samples of sand and a sandy loam. The pathogenic fungus Rhizoctonia solani AG4 was introduced on the surface (encountering a gap whilst the colony expands over the surface) or within soil (encountering a gap whilst the colony spreads through the bulk soil). Depending on the orientation, location and width, gaps were demonstrated to act as preferential pathways (increasing the colonisation efficiency of R. solani), or as a partial barrier (reducing the colonisation efficiency). Within bulk soil, R. solani preferentially followed larger pores, enabling the fungus to by-pass more densely areas. Study of soil thin sections revealed that hyphal densities were greater in gaps than in the surrounding bulk soil. We use the results to discuss how macropore structure in soil can either enhance or reduce the parasitic spread and saprotrophic invasion of soil by fungi.  相似文献

The concentration of glucosinolates (GSLs) and isothiocyanates (ITCs) was monitored in soil following the incorporation of pulverised high and low GSL varieties of rape (Brassica napus) and mustard (Brassica juncea) biofumigant crops. The concentration of both GSLs and ITCs in soil was highest immediately (30 min) after incorporation and they could be detected for up to 8 and 12 d, respectively. Irrigating with 18 mm of water over 3 h had no effect on either GSL or ITC concentrations. The amounts detected were generally related to the amount of GSL added in the incorporated plant tissue. Maximum total GSL concentration detected in the soil was 13.8 and 22.8 nmol g−1 for rape and mustard, respectively, representing 7% and 13% of the original GSL present in the incorporated tissues. The non-ITC liberating GSLs (predominately indolyl GSLs) were found at lower concentrations than ITC-liberating GSLs, but tended to persist longer in the soil. Maximum total ITC concentration was 21.6 nmol g−1 and 90.6 nmol g−1 for rape and mustard, respectively. Calculated ITC release efficiency was 26% and 56% for high GSL rape and mustard, respectively at the time of the highest ITC concentration measured. These are the first reported measurements of GSLs in soil following biofumigant incorporation. They indicate that a significant proportion of plant GSL can persist un-hydrolysed in the soil for several days following Brassica incorporation. Further investigations of plant treatment and incorporation methods to maximise ITC release are warranted.  相似文献

A bacterium having strong chitinolytic activity was isolated from a coastal soil in Korea and identified as Paenibacillus illinoisensis KJA-424 on the basis of the nucleotide sequence of a 16S rRNA gene. By activity staining after SDS-PAGE, three major chitinase bands with chitinolytic activity, approximate molecular weight of 63, 54 and 38 kDa were detected. On co-culture Rhizoctonia solani with KJA-424, abnormal swelling and deformation of R. solani hyphae were observed, where the release of N-acetyl-d-glucosamine was detected. The bacterium suppressed the symptom of damping-off cucumber seedlings caused by R. solani, in greenhouse trial.  相似文献

A low glucosinolate content (21.8 μmol g−1) Brassica napus seed meal (RSM) applied to orchard soils altered communities of both pathogenic and saprophytic soil micro-organisms. RSM amendment reduced infection by native and introduced isolates of Rhizoctonia spp. and recovery of Pratylenchus spp. from apple roots. Root infection by Rhizoctonia solani AG-5 was also suppressed in split-root assays where a portion of the root system was cultivated in RSM-amended soils and the remainder grown in the presence of the pathogen but lacking RSM. R. solani hyphal growth was not inhibited by RSM amendment. Suppression of Pratylenchus was attained to an equivalent extent by amending soils with either RSM or soybean meal (SM) when applied to provide a similar N content. Thus, glucosinolate hydrolysis products did not appear to have a significant role in the suppression of Rhizoctonia spp. or Pratylenchus spp. obtained via RSM amendment. RSM amendment elevated populations of Pythium spp. and of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria that release nitric oxide but suppressed fluorescent pseudomonad numbers. Streptomyces spp. soil populations increased significantly in response to RSM but not SM amendment. The vast majority of Streptomyces spp. recovered from the apple rhizosphere produced nitric oxide and possessed a nitric oxide synthase homolog. We propose that transformations in the bacterial community structure are associated with the observed control of Rhizoctonia root rot, with NO production by soil bacteria potentially having a role in the induction of plant systemic resistance.  相似文献

The capability of native bacterial strains isolated from Lolium perenne rhizosphere to behave as plant growth promoting bacteria and /or biocontrol agents was investigated. One strain (BNM 0357) over 13 isolates from the root tips of L. perenne resulted proved to be nitrogenase positive (ARA test) and an IAA producer. Conventional tests and the API 20E diagnostic kit indicated that BNM 0357 behaves to the Enterobacteriaceae family and to the Enterobacter genus. Molecular identification by 16S rRNA sequence analysis indicated that BNM 0357 had the highest similarity to Enterobacter ludwigii (EN-119). Isolate BNM 0357 had the capability to solubilize calcium triphosphate and to antagonize Fusarium solani mycelial growth and spore germination. Strain BNM 0357 also showed the ability to improve the development of the root system of L. perenne. This study disclosed features of E. ludwigii BNM 0357 that deserve further studies aimed at confirming its putative importance as a PGPR.  相似文献

Plant-plant and plant-soil interactions play a key role in determining plant community structure and ecosystem function. However, the effects of global change on the interplay between co-occurring plants and soil microbes in successional communities are poorly understood. In this study, we investigated competition for nitrogen (N) between soil microorganisms, grass plants and establishing tree seedlings under factorial carbon dioxide (CO2) and N treatments. Fraxinus excelsior seedlings were germinated in the presence or absence of grass competition (Dactylis glomerata) at low (380 μmol mol−1) or high (645 μmol mol−1) CO2 and at two levels of N nutrition in a mesocosm experiment. Pulse 15N labelling was used to examine N partitioning among plant and soil compartments. Dactylis exerted a strong negative effect on Fraxinus biomass, N capture and 15N recovery irrespective of N and CO2 treatment. In contrast, the presence of Dactylis had a positive effect on the microbial N pool. Plant and soil responses to N treatment were of a greater magnitude compared with responses to elevated CO2, but the pattern of Fraxinus- and microbial-N pool response to N and CO2 varied depending on grass competition treatment. Within the Dactylis competition treatment, decreases in Fraxinus biomass in response to N were not mirrored by decreases in tree seedling N content, suggesting a shift from below- to above-ground competition. In the Dactylis-sown pots, 15N recovery could be ranked Dactylis > microbial pool > Fraxinus in all N and CO2 treatment combinations. Inequalities between Fraxinus and soil microorganisms in terms of 15N recovery were exacerbated by N addition. Contrary to expectations, elevated CO2 did not increase plant-microbe competition. Nevertheless, microbial 15N recovery showed a small positive increase in the high CO2 treatment. Overall, elevated CO2 and N supply did not interact on plant/soil N partitioning. Our data suggest that the competitive balance between establishing tree seedlings and grass plants in an undisturbed sward is relatively insensitive to CO2 or N-induced modifications in N competition between plant and soil compartments.  相似文献

The family Tylenchidae is a large group of soil nematodes but their feeding habits are not fully known. We studied the fungal-feeding abilities of nematodes in the genus Filenchus. We measured population growth rates (PGRs) of six nematode isolates, representing three Filenchus species, when feeding on seven fungal species on two types of culture media. On Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA) Filenchus misellus, Filenchus discrepans and an unidentified Filenchus sp. generally showed moderate to large PGRs on saprophytic fungi (Rhizoctonia solani, Chaetomium globosum, Coprinus cinereus, Flammulina velutipes) and low PGRs on plant-pathogenic fungi (Fusarium oxysporum, Pythium ultimum). In soil medium amended with chopped soybean plant material or wheat bran, the status of most of the fungi as food for the nematodes was similar to that on PDA, although PGRs tended to be lower in the soil medium. However, C. globosum, a good food on PDA, only supported low PGR in soil for each of the three nematodes. The PGRs of F. misellus on C. globosum in soil were still low even when types and amounts of organic matter amendments were varied. A nematophagous fungus, Pleurotus ostreatus (oyster mushroom), was determined to be a food for Filenchus on PDA or in soil, based on PGR measurements corrected for extraction efficiency. To determine whether fungal species and culture media affected nematode extraction efficiencies and, consequently, the apparent PGRs, we compared efficiencies between R. solani, C. globosum and C. cinereus, and between PDA and soil. The relatively low extraction efficiencies across fungal species in soil seemed responsible for the lower nematode PGRs in soil than on PDA. On PDA generally, fungal species did not affect the assessment. In soil, effects of fungal species on extraction were significant, but not consistent, across nematode species. Nevertheless, the extraction efficiency differences in soil were considered not to affect assessment of the three fungi as food for the nematodes. The confirmation that three Filenchus species reproduce by feeding on fungi in soil suggests that fungal-feeding is not an unusual habit in the field, in this genus. We believe that in community studies, nematodes in the genus Filenchus should be considered fungal feeders or root and fungal feeders, rather than only plant feeders. Our confirmation of fungal-feeding habits in the genus Filenchus supports the hypotheses that plant-feeding nematodes evolved from those feeding on fungi.  相似文献

It is suggested that the diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and their association with distinct plants species are crucial in the early stages of revegetation procedures since the AMF roots colonisation plays an important role improving plant establishment and growth. We carried out a study where we analyse the AMF community composition in the roots of Ephedra fragilis, Rhamnus lycioides, Pistacia lentiscus and Retama sphaerocarpa fourteen months after revegetation in a Mediterranean semiarid degraded area of southeast Spain in order to verify whether different plant species can variably promote the diversity of AM fungi in their rhizospheres after planted. We analysed a portion of approximately 795 bases pairs of the small-subunit ribosomal DNA by means of nested PCR, cloning, sequencing and phylogenetic analyses. Eight fungal sequence types belonging to Glomus group A and B and to the genus Paraglomus were identified. The different plant species had different AM fungal community composition. Thus, R. lycioides harboured the highest number of four fungal sequence types while from E. fragilis only two types could be characterized that were specific for this plant species. P. lentiscus and R. sphaerocarpa harboured each one three sequence types and two of them were shared. All AMF sequence types were found in the natural soil. These results show that one effective way of restoring degraded lands is to increase the number of plant species used, which would increase the AMF diversity in the soil and thus the below-ground, positive interactions.  相似文献

The classification of nematodes in the family Tylenchidae into plant parasites, plant associates or fungal-feeders for community analyses, have been much discussed by nematode ecologists. For an appropriate classification, fungal-feeding habits in the family need to be studied. To evaluate the host status of 10 fungal isolates for Filenchus misellus (Tylenchidae) and Aphelenchus avenae (Aphelenchida, Aphelenchidae), population growth rates, body length and width and sex ratios of the nematodes were measured after 40-day culture on fungal colonies at 25 °C. For F. misellus, the fungi determined as good hosts were two Basidiomycota fungi (Agaricus bisporus, Coprinus cinereus), three Ascomycota fungi (Chaetomium cochlioides, Chaetomium funicola, Chaetomium globosum) and a plant-pathogenic fungus (Rhizoctonia solani) on the basis of nematode population growth rate and female body length. Interestingly Pleurotus ostreatus, known as a predaceous fungus for the other nematodes, was also a good host for F. misellus. While, for A. avenae, good hosts were four plant-pathogenic fungi (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. conglutinans, F. oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum, Pythium ultimum, R. solani) and A. bisporus. A. avenae was trapped and preyed upon by Pleurotus hyphae. In F. misellus, males were 7-21% of adults, but the ratio did not correlate significantly with the population growth rate. In A. avenae, no male occurred. Differences in habitat preference between Filenchus and Aphelenchus were explained on the basis of the host status and habitat preferences of the tested fungi.  相似文献

Application of organic amendments has been proposed as a strategy for the management of diseases caused by soilborne pathogens. However, inconsistent results seriously hinder their practical use. In this work we use an extensive data set of 2423 studies derived from 252 papers to explore this strategy. First, we assess the capability of a specific organic amendment to control different diseases; second, we investigate the influence of organic matter (OM) decomposition on disease suppressiveness; and third, we search for physical, chemical and biological parameters able to identify suppressive OM. OM was found to be consistently suppressive to different pathogens in only a few studies where a limited number of pathogens were tested. In the majority of studies a material suppressive to a pathogen was ineffective or even conducive to other pathogens, suggesting that OM suppressiveness is often pathogen-specific. OM decomposition in many studies (73%, n = 426) emerged as a crucial process affecting suppressiveness. During decomposition, disease suppression either increased, decreased, was unchanged or showed more complex responses, such as ‘hump-shaped’ dynamics. Peat suppressiveness generally decreased during decomposition, while responses of composts and crop residues were more complex. However, due to the many interactions of contributing factors (OM quality, microbial community composition, pathosystem tested and decomposition time), it was difficult to identify specific predictors of disease suppression. Among the 81 parameters analysed, only some of the 643 correlations showed a consistent relationship with disease suppression. The response of pathogen populations to OM amendments was a reliable feature only for some organic matter types (e.g. crop residues and organic wastes with C-to-N ratio lower than ∼15) and for pathogens with a limited saprophytic ability (e.g., Thielaviopsis basicola and Verticillium dahliae). Instead, population responses of the pathogenic fungi Phytophthora spp., Rhizoctonia solani and Pythium spp. appeared unrelated to disease suppression. Overall, enzymatic and microbiological parameters, rather than chemical ones, were much more informative for predicting suppressiveness. The most useful features were FDA activity, substrate respiration, microbial biomass, total culturable bacteria, fluorescent pseudomonads and Trichoderma populations. We conclude that the integration of different parameters (e.g. FDA hydrolysis and chemical composition by 13C NMR) may be a promising approach for identification of suppressive amendments.  相似文献

A field experiment was conducted to study the effects of peat amendment and crop production system on earthworms. The experiment was established on a field previously cultivated with oats and with silt as the main soil type. Perennial crops strawberry, timothy and caraway, and annual crops rye, turnip rape, buckwheat, onion and fiddleneck were cultivated with conventional methods. All the crops were grown with and without soil amendment with peat. Earthworms were sampled twice: 4 and 28 months after establishment of the experiment. In the former case part of the experimental plots were soil sampled and hand sorted for estimation of earthworms. In the latter case all experimental plots were sampled and both soil sampling and mustard extraction was carried out. Soil organic carbon and microbial biomass was measured at 14 and 28 months. Peat increased the abundance of juvenile Aporrectodea caliginosa by 74% in three growing seasons, but had no effect on adult numbers. Lumbricus terrestris numbers were not increased by peat treatment. Three season cultivation of caraway favoured both A. caliginosa and L. terrestris. An equal abundance of A. caliginosa was also found in plots cultivated with turnip rape and fiddleneck. Total earthworm and especially A. caliginosa numbers were very small in plastic-mulched strawberry beds. This was mainly attributed to repeated use of the insecticide endosulfan. With the strawberry plots omitted there was a significant correlation between soil microbial N measured at 14 months and juvenile Aporrectodea spp. and Lumbricus spp. numbers measured at 28 months. Adult earthworm numbers were not associated with either soil organic C or microbial biomass.  相似文献
