The basidiomycetes Armillaria cepistipes and Armillaria ostoyae frequently occur in the same forest stand. In this study, we determined the virulence of 20 isolates of A. cepistipes and 16 isolates of A. ostoyae on four different provenances of 2‐year‐old Norway spruce (Picea abies). Within 30 months after inoculation, 1.1 and 19.1% of the seedlings inoculated with A. cepistipes and A. ostoyae, respectively, had died or were dying. The incidence of dead and dying seedlings varied between 3 and 49% among the A. ostoyae isolates. The virulence of an isolate was positively correlated to its ability to produce rhizomorphs. One Norway spruce provenance showed significantly lower susceptibility to A. ostoyae than the other three. Rhizomorphs of both Armillaria species were attached to the root surface. The attached rhizomorphs of A. ostoyae, however, were associated with significantly more lesions. The virulence of the isolates was not correlated with their wood‐degrading capability for either of the Armillaria species.  相似文献

Symptoms and signs associated with root rot caused by Heterobasidion annosum or Armillaria ostoyae in mountain pines (Pinus mugo ssp. uncinata) were investigated in the Swiss Alps. A sample of dying or recently dead mountain pine trees (≥12 cm d.b.h.) and saplings (<1.3 m height) was assessed for root pathogen infection by taking root samples followed by isolations in the laboratory. From a subsample, an additional core was taken from the butt of each tree and evaluated in the same fashion. A total of 157 dying or recently dead mountain pine trees and 184 saplings with roots infected by either of the two pathogens or which lacked infection were analyzed using logistic regression models. The main objectives were to determine the most prominent symptoms induced by the fungi (resinosis), signs of the fungi (mycelia, fruiting bodies and rhizomorphs), and tree characteristics (d.b.h./height and evidence of wounds) that would allow an easy and reliable determination of H. annosum and/or A. ostoyae infection of mountain pines in the field. Heterobasidion annosum caused both root and butt rot on mountain pine, whereas A. ostoyae was mostly restricted to the root systems of the trees sampled. The most discriminating sign for the presence of A. ostoyae infection was the presence of characteristic mycelial fans, and for H. annosum root rot the presence of H. annosum mycelia (sheets of paper‐thin mycelium and mycelial pustules). In addition, resinosis was a powerful predictor for A. ostoyae in trees. Symptoms and signs indicating A. ostoyae or H. annosum infections were more reliable for saplings than for mature trees. Armillaria rhizomorphs were not useful in detecting A. ostoyae infection and, if present, were often formed by saprophytic Armillaria species. Heterobasidion annosum fruiting bodies were rarely observed and poorly reflected the widespread occurrence of this pathogen in the mountain pine forests.  相似文献

Information about the entry of Armillaria into first-rotation pine and spruce stands was obtained by searching for infected stumps, rhizomorph systems or trees that had been killed. In pines Armillaria foci were very rare. In pure Norway spruce Armillaria lutea and A. mellea were detected in stumps but rhizomorphs did not extend into the soil; in Norway spruce mixed with oak, by contrast, A. lutea sometimes produced extensive rhizomorph systems. In Sitka spruce small groups of trees had been killed by A. ostoyae. All foci investigated in conifers contained different genotypes of Armillaria and probably originated from spore infection of stumps created by thinning. Some implications of these findings are discussed.  相似文献

The sequence of events leading to the restoration of an intact periderm surface in the stem bark of Pinus sylvestris following wounding and challenge with Armillaria ostoyae was determined. A sub-erized impervious tissue (SIT) was produced outside the necrophylactic periderm (NP). Al-though A. ostoyae initially infected wounded bark with intracelfularly growing hyphae, these died before penetrating deeply into the bark. Later, intercellularly growing rhizomorphs, which had also developed from the inoculum, penetrated the NP and infected the functional phloem/ cambial zone. Compared to the reactions in uninfected wounded bark, the A. ostoyae infection delayed the formation of NP and reduced the frequency of cells involved in lignification and in SIT, but increased the number of lignified cell layers. The rhizomorph infection reached deeper and lignification was more pronounced in defoliated seedlings than in non-defoliated ones. The importance of structural responses in defence against A. ostoyae is discussed.  相似文献

The distribution of Armillaria species was investigated in Serbian forest ecosystems, in relation to the main host species attacked, forest‐types, geography and altitude. In total, 388 isolates were identified from 36 host species in 47 sites. Armillaria gallica was the most commonly observed species with the widest distribution and with an altitudinal range of 70–1450 m, it was the dominating Armillaria species in lowland alluvial forests and in Quercus and Fagus forests at higher elevations. Armillaria mellea occurred in Quercus spp. – dominated forests in the north and central regions at 70–1050 m. Sixty‐eight per cent of the A. mellea isolates were collected from living hosts, most commonly in declining conifer plantations. Armillaria ostoyae was distributed in the cooler coniferous forest types and plantations in the Dinaric Alps in the south of Serbia, at 850–1820 m. Armillaria cepistipes was found in the eastern and southern hilly and mountainous regions of the country, at 600–1900 m. Most isolates were obtained from conifers and rhizomorphs in the soil around decaying stumps. Armillaria tabescens was found only on dead oak material in the northern and eastern regions of the country at altitudes lower than 600 m.  相似文献

Distribution, host preference and pathogenicity of Japanese Armillaria species on conifers were investigated on the basis of field collections of 65 isolates. We identified seven Armillaria species from 19 conifer species including six major Japanese plantation conifers using mating tests and sequences of the translation elongation‐1 α gene. Armillaria mellea, Armillaria ostoyae, Armillaria cepistipes and Armillaria sinapina were frequently collected, whereas Armillaria nabsnona, Armillaria tabescens and a biological species Nagasawa’s E were rare. On the basis of host condition when the isolates were collected, A. mellea, A. ostoyae, A. cepistipes and A. tabescens are considered as moderate to aggressive pathogens of conifers in Japan.  相似文献

To determine the phylogenetic positions of two new species, Armillaria jezoensis and Armillaria singula, and one new subspecies, Armillaria mellea suhsp. nipponica, the nucleotide sequences of the intergenic spacers (IGS) of their ribosomal DNA were investigated, and compared with those of tour other Armillaria species from Japan, and those of nine Armillaria species from Europe and North America. We conclude that Armillaria jezoensis, and Armillaria singula belong to the Armillaria gallica cluster as Armillaria cepistipes, Armillaria gallica and Armillaria sinapina from Japan. Two isolates of Armillaria ostoyae from Japan were placed within the Armillaria ostoyae cluster. Armillaria mellea subsp. nipponica had an IGS sequence as long as the IGS of Armillaria mellea from Europe and North America. However, the IGS sequences of Armillaria mellea subsp. nipponica, whose basidium base lacks a clamp connection could not be satisfactorily aligned with the IGS sequences of other species possessing this morphological feature.  相似文献

In managed spruce forests, Armillaria cepistipes and A. ostoyae are efficient stump colonizers and may compete for these resources when they co‐occur at the same site. The aim of this experiment was to quantify the mutual competitive ability of the two Armillaria species in producing rhizomorphs and in colonizing Norway spruce (Picea abies) stumps. Five isolates of A. cepistipes and two isolates of A. ostoyae were simultaneously inoculated pair‐wise into pots containing a 4‐year‐old spruce seedling. For comparison, each isolate was also inoculated alone. One year after inoculation, stumps were created by cutting down the seedlings. Six months after creation of the stumps, rhizomorph production and stump colonization were assessed. Armillaria spp. were identified from 347 rhizomorphs and 48 colonized stumps. Armillaria cepistipes dominated both as rhizomorphs in the soil and on the stumps. Nevertheless, A. ostoyae was relatively more frequent on the stumps than in the soil and A. cepistipes was relatively more frequent in the soil than on the stumps. In both species, the ability to colonize the stumps in simultaneous inoculations was significantly reduced compared with single inoculations. In respect to rhizomorph production, simultaneous co‐inoculations had a slightly stimulatory effect on A. cepistipes and no significant effect on A. ostoyae. Our study suggests a rather neutralistic co‐existence of A. cepistipes and A. ostoyae as rhizomorphs in the soil. Concerning the ability to colonize stumps, the two species experience a mutual negative effect from the interaction, probably because of interspecific competition.  相似文献

Laccase and manganese-dependent peroxidase (Mn peroxidase) activities were detected in the culture media of Armillaria ostoyae and A. mellea. Mn peroxidase was produced in significantly higher quantity by the A. ostoyae isolates and was purified by chromatography from one isolate of this species. Some properties of the purified enzyme were examined (absorption spectrum, H2O2 and MnSO4 optimal concentrations, pH optimum and lactate stimulation). Enzymes of potential importance in the lignin degradation (especially Mn peroxidase) by Armillaria sp. are compared to those of other root-rotting fungi. The possible role of Mn peroxidase in modulating the pathogenicity of Armillaria sp. is discussed.  相似文献

The level of Armillaria mellea activity on root systems of living and herbicide-killed oâks was assessed. Epiphytic rhizomorphs were almost always present on living and dead oak roots. After an oak was killed or completely defoliated, A. mellea usually penetrated directly through the root-collar bark and spread rapidly in the cambium. Sapwood in the root collar and main lateral roots was colonized within 2 years. The production of thizomorphs from this region was assessed on trees that had been killed by herbicide sprays 2 to 14 years before sampling.  相似文献

Polyacrylamide isoelectric focusing with specific staining for laccase activity was used to characterize laccase from European Armillaria species (Armillaria ostoyae, Armillaria mellea, Armillaria gallica, Armillaria cepistipes). The enzyme was extracted from culture media either supplemented, or not, with pine sawdust, and also from Pinus pinaster naturally infected by A. ostoyae, or artificially inoculated with A. mellea and A. ostoyae. Some differences in banding patterns were found for Armillana isolates according to the species and the culture media, but a common band at pI = 3.4 was found in all the extracts tested, independently of their origin (culture filtrate or wood).  相似文献

Honey fungi, Armillaria spp. are common and economically important pathogens of a wide range of tree species grown both in the forest and orchard cultures worldwide. Our field research in 73 forest stands across Poland has shown a common association of the mycetophagous wood nematode, Bursaphelenchus fraudulentus with Armillaria‐infected trees. The data reported here provide the first insight into the parasitic interaction of a nematode and Armillaria ostoyae. In laboratory conditions, B. fraudulentus reproduced on A. ostoyae, caused substantial damage to its mycelium and, finally, killed the whole colony within a short time. In ageing cultures, the nematode produced resting (dauer) juveniles. After artificial inoculation to Armillaria‐infected trees, the nematode population persisted under the bark, continued feeding and mass reproduction on the mycelium, and dispersed over the mycelial fans. The ability of B. fraudulentus to develop and reproduce on the surface and inside the fungal rhizomorphs suggests that these structures could facilitate the nematode dispersion in the environment. Since B. fraudulentus is not pathogenic to the host tree, its parasitic association with A. ostoyae may contribute to natural regulation of this fungus in the environment. The observed characteristics of this nematode suggest that it could potentially be used as a biocontrol agent of honey fungi in forest and orchard trees.  相似文献

Attempts to design species‐specific PCR primers from six European Armillaria species in the ribosomal RNA genes are reported. Primers were developed on the basis of the nucleotide sequence variability of the internal transcribed spacers (ITS) and the intergenic spacer (IGS1) of the ribosomal DNA. Four sets of primers gave specific PCR products for Armillaria tabescens, Armillaria mellea and Armillaria ostoyae. However, due to the high sequence similarities between Armillaria borealis and Armillaria ostoyae and between Armillaria cepistipes and Armillaria gallica no species specific amplification was obtained for these taxa.  相似文献

The production of rhizomorphs by Armillaria mellea from stumps samples collected in East Anglia was studied: those of broad-leaved trees produced greater yields than those of pines and, in the absence of poisoning, over a much longer period after felling. The ability of A. mellea to form rhizomorphs is often reduced after prolonged growth in pine tissues. The interaction of A. mellea and other fungi is briefly considered. Some implications of these observations for forestry practice are discussed.  相似文献

Armillaria causes problems of root rot, kill trees and decay wood in the forests of Serbia and Montenegro, but the species involved have not hitherto been identified. The aim of this study was to identify field isolates collected on 25 localities. Identification was based on restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of intergenic spacer 1 (IGS1) region and comparisons of IGS1 sequence with those available on NCBI database. Phylogenetic analysis was performed on sequence information from selected isolates to determine possible interrelationships between isolates with different banding patterns and previously identified tester isolates of five European Armillaria species. Five Armillaria species were identified in 90 isolates obtained from forests in Serbia and Montenegro. Armillaria gallica was most frequently isolated, followed by A. cepistipes, A. mellea, A. ostoyae and A. tabescens; two isolates remained unidentified. Restriction digestion of IGS1 amplification products with AluI produced 10 RFLP patterns. Patterns G4 (400, 250, 180) for A. gallica and pattern X (400, 180, 140) for isolates 74 and 79 are reported for the first time in European isolates. Eight RFLP patterns were observed after restriction with TaqI. Two patterns each were observed for A. ostoyae and A. gallica, and one each for A. cepistipes, A. mellea, A. tabescens and isolates 74 and 79. Parsimony analyses based on the IGS1 region placed the isolates into four clades: one including A. mellea, the second containing A. gallica–A. cepistipes isolates, while isolates of A. ostoyae and A. borealis were in the third clade. Armillaria tabescens differed from all annulate species. Phylogenetic analysis supported the conclusion that European Armillaria species are closely related and separated from a common ancestor in the near past. According to this survey five European Armillaria species are present in the forests of Serbia and Montenegro, while A. borealis is not present in the studied ecosystems.  相似文献

The geographical distribution of the annulate Armillaria species was studied in The Netherlands during the period 1983–1992. Armillaria gallica (incl. A. cepistipes), A. mellea and A. ostoyae appear to be widespread, the first two species being rather common on broad-leaved hosts growing on clay and loess soils, and the third species common on both broad-leaved and coniferous hosts on acid sandy soils. The distribution of the Armillaria species encountered was primarily determined by soil type. From a silvicultural point of view, A. ostoyae is the most important species, being pathogenic and occurring most frequently on sandy soils, the soil type predominantly used for forestry in The Netherlands.  相似文献

In an ancient broadleaved woodland in eastern England that had been coppiced regularly for over 700 years Armillaria mellea and A. gallica were common, A. tabescens was moderately frequent, whilst A ostoyae and A cepistipes were local. Fruit bodies were often abundant in areas coppiced the previous winter. The largest focus of A gallica occupied 9 ha and was probably over 500 years old. Large trees were rarely killed but A mellea caused some root decay in birches. The number of coppice shoots killed by Armillaria was small but became greater as the period since coppicing increased; A gallica was most often involved. Alder coppice was the most, and hazel coppice the least, affected. The productivity of coppiced woodland in general seemed little reduced by Armilaria.  相似文献

The effect of allicin (a stabilized garlic extract product) at five different concentrations (0, 20, 30, 50 and 100 mg/l) was studied in vitro on the growth rate of 100 isolates of Armillaria gallica and A. mellea. Isolates were obtained from 41 host genera growing in gardens located in 39 counties in the United Kingdom. Agar plugs of the actively growing Armillaria isolates were added to the centre of malt agar plates infused with allicin, and radial mycelium growth was measured on days 7, 14 and 21. The total number of rhizomorphs and length of rhizomorphs were also measured. Relative growth rates were calculated as the growth rate relative to the controls (0 mg/ l). The relative growth of each isolate at each allicin concentration was used to estimate EC50 values for A. mellea and A. gallica populations as well as individual isolates. EC50 values for both Armillaria spp. increased over time. The mean EC50 values for A. mellea of 16.0, 26.4 and 102 mg/l (days 7, 14 and 21, respectively) were higher than those for A. gallica (8.8, 7.9 and 11.0 mg/l) and probably relate to the more aggressive nature of A. mellea. Isolates with higher EC50 values were also more likely to produce more rhizomorphs. At allicin concentrations of 20 and 30 mg/l, the production of rhizomorphs and the growth rates of A. mellea isolates were stimulated, when compared to the control treatments. From this study's findings, it appears that the field use potential of allicin is limited, due to better inhibition of the less virulent A. gallica, than the more aggressive A. mellea.  相似文献

Twenty-five African Armillaria isolates paired on malt-agar were divided into four groups on the basis of somatic incompatibility reactions. One of the groups is similar to the European species Armillaria mellea, while another group is provisionally designated as Armillaria heimii.  相似文献

Armillaria species from Japan were characterized using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) of the intergenic spacer region-1 (IGS-1) of ribosomal DNA (rDNA). Eleven different digestion patterns by restriction endonuclease Alu I were found among 70 isolates of seven Armillaria species in Japan. Isolates within Armillaria nabsnona, A. ostoyae, A. cepistipes, and Japanese biological species E showed the same Alu I digestion patterns. Five Alu I patterns were detected for A. gallica, three patterns for A. mellea, and two patterns for A. tabescens. Seven Armillaria species in Japan were clearly distinguished by using the profiles obtained when PCR products were digested with Alu I, Msp I, and Hae III restriction enzymes. There was considerable variability of Alu I restriction sites within the IGS-1 between the isolates of five Armillaria species, A. gallica, A. nabsnona, A. cepistipes, A. mellea, and A. tabescens, in Japan and those of their European and North American counterparts.  相似文献
