Verticillium dahliae Kleb. with a complicated genetic diversity is a widely distributed major pathogen resulting in cotton wilt, which causes high economic losses in cotton lint production in the cotton belt of Turkey. A collection of 70 TurkishV. dahliae isolates (68 from wilted cotton plants in 28 districts and two from watermelon plants in two districts) were tested for vegetative compatibility by observing heterokaryon formation among complementary nitrate-nonutilizing (nit) mutants. The mutants were tested against international reference tester isolates and also were paired with one another. Thirty-nine isolates were assigned to vegetative compatibility group (VCG) 2B, 19 to VCG2A and three to VCG4B. One isolate was self-incompatible and eight others could not be assigned to any of the identified VCGs because theirnit mutants showed negative reactions with the tester isolates of four VCGs or theirnit mutants reverted back to the wild type. This is the first report of VCGs inV. dahliae from cotton in Turkey.  相似文献

Forty-three isolates ofVerticillium lecanii from insects, phytopathogenic fungi and other substrates were tested for vegetative compatibility by observing heterokaryon formation among complementary nitrate-nonutilizing (nit) mutants.nit mutants were isolated from 42/43 strains examined. Twenty-one isolates were self-incompatible, and the remaining 21 isolates were divided into 14 vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs): ten containing only a single strain each, and the remaining four containing two to four isolates each. Members of isolates in each of these VCGs all shared the same IGS haplotype. Further, the isolates within a VCG were correlated with one another in part by fragment patterns of mt-LrDNA, -SrDNA, Bt-2 and H4 region, by PCR-RFLP and -SSCP, but not by dsRNA. Two isolates belonging to VL-J2 have high virulence to aphids, whereas strains from VL-J1 lack this character. These findings indicate that two VCGs (VL-J1 and -J2) may originate from two distinct clonal lineages. Alternatively, high VCG diversity and HSI frequency ofV. lecanii might be associated with an array of distinct lineages. These data not only suggest relationships among DNA polymorphisms, virulence, and VCG, but also demonstrate genetic heterogeneity ofV. lecanii. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting Sept. 30, 2003.  相似文献

Vegetative compatibility among 17 isolates ofVerticillium dahliae obtained from watermelon, originating from eight regions of Greece, was investigated using complementation tests between nitrate-nonutilizing(nit) mutants. Among 529 chlorate-resistant sectors obtained, only 107 werenit mutants. These mutants were paired with tester strains (from Greece and other countries) of previously described vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs), and also were paired in many combinations among themselves. All isolates were self-compatible. Sixteen isolates were found to belong to VCG2. Only isolate V75 could not be assigned to a VCG, because the threenit mutants obtained from it showed negative reactions with the tester strains of four VCGs and with complementary mutants from other isolates. Based on this sample, we conclude that the population ofV. dahliae from watermelon in Greece is homogeneous in respect to VCG.  相似文献

Black dot, caused by Colletotrichum coccodes, is a common disease of potato in Turkey, affecting tuber quality and yield. The objectives of the current study were to characterize vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) of C. coccodes isolates from three regions in Turkey, and to assess the correlation between VCGs and aggressiveness of isolates on potato. A total of 147 C. coccodes isolates were recovered from plants showing typical black dot symptoms on stolons, roots and stems. The frequency of nitrate non‐utilizing (nit) nit1/nit3 and NitM phenotypes were 79% and 21%, respectively. Complementation between nit mutants of the isolates and eight European/Israeli EU/I‐VCG tester isolates was used to characterize the VCGs. Amongst the tested isolates, 33.3% were assigned to EU/I‐VCG6, 21.8% to EU/I‐VCG8, 15.7% to EU/I‐VCG4. EU/I‐VCG1, EU/I‐VCG3, EU/I‐VCG5 and EU/I‐VCG7 were classified at 1.4%, 3.4%, 4.8% and 5.4%, frequency, respectively. No isolate was assigned to EU/I‐VCG2 group, while 21 isolates (14.3%) were not assigned to any of the EU/I‐VCGs. The pathogenicity tests indicated significant differences in aggressiveness of the isolates with respect to sclerotia density on potato tissues. The highest densities of sclerotia on roots and crown were obtained with EU/I‐VCG6 isolates and the lowest with EU/I‐VCG1, EU/I‐VCG3 and EU/I‐VCG5 isolates. The results demonstrate that there is significant VCG diversity among C. coccodes isolates from potato plants in Turkey.  相似文献

A total of 101Verticillium dahliae isolates were recovered from cotton plants at 57 sites in the Aegean region of Turkey between 2003 and 2004. Isolates were tested for vegetative compatibility by observing heterokaryon formation among complementary nitrate-nonutilizing (nit) mutants. Forty-six isolates were assigned to VCG 1, 12 to VCG 2A, 33 to VCG 2B and four to VCG 4B. The remaining six isolates could not be tested for vegetative compatibility because of their inability to yieldnit mutants. All isolates recovered were tested for pathogenicity on cotton cultivars Acala SJ-1 and Deltapine 15-21 by the stem-injection method. The isolates of VCG 2 and 4B, irrespective of their origin, induced weak to severe symptoms on cotton and were similar to the previously described cotton non-defoliating pathotype. In contrast, all cotton isolates of VCG1 caused severe foliar symptoms, stunting, defoliation and often death. This is the first report on VCG 1 ofV. dahliae in Turkey. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting May 4, 2007.  相似文献

The geographic incidence, genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships of Melon necrotic spot virus (MNSV) and Olpidium isolates were studied in three cucurbit species from several Latin American and European countries on different collecting dates. Of the 112 cucurbit samples analysed, 69 from Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Panama and Spain were DAS‐ELISA‐positive for MNSV. Olpidium bornovanus and O. virulentus infections, and MNSV infections mixed with these Olpidium species, were observed for all these countries. Twenty‐nine MNSV isolates from all the origins where the virus was detected were selected and amplified by RT‐PCR. The resulting RT‐PCR of the p29, p89, p7A, p7B and p42 proteins was used to estimate the genetic diversity and the phylogenetic relationships of the MNSV population. The sequences obtained in this study were compared with the MNSV sequences of the NCBI database, and three groups were recovered by nucleotide composition according to geographical origins: the EU‐LA genotype group (with two subgroups: EU and LA, European and Latin American isolates, respectively), the JP melon genotype group (Japanese melon reference isolates) and the JP watermelon genotype group (Japanese watermelon reference isolates). The genetic diversity in the entire p7A and p7B proteins of MNSV suggests that these coding regions are under strong selective pressure. Additionally, the rDNA‐ITS region was analysed in 40 O. bornovanus and O. virulentus isolates associated with each geographical location and host examined. Phylogenetic analysis showed two groups for each Olpidium species, and these groupings were related to the host from which they were originally isolated.  相似文献

A collection of 30 strains of Verticillium dahliae, recovered during 2004–2006 from 12 cultivars of chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium) in five districts of İzmir province in Turkey, was assigned to vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) based on pairings of complementary nitrate-nonutilizing (nit) mutants induced on a chlorate-containing medium. Of these strains, nine were assigned to VCG1, seven to VCG2A, 11 toVCG2B and one to VCG4B. The remaining two strains could not be tested for vegetative compatibility because of their inability to yield nit mutants. Pathogenicity tests conducted by the root-dip method, demonstrated that wilt of chrysanthemum in Turkey is caused by V. dahliae, and most strains in VCG1 were significantly more aggressive to chrysanthemum than those in VCGs 2 and 4B. This is the first known study in the world of the VCGs of V. dahliae isolates from chrysanthemum.  相似文献

Complementary auxotrophic nitrate-nonutilizing (nit) mutants were used to investigate vegetative compatibility within 27 strains ofVerticillium dahliae isolated from several hosts originating from Africa, Asia, Europe and the United States. Using about 500nit mutants generated from these strains, three vegetative compatibility groups, 1, 2 and 4, were identified. Simultaneously, virulence of each strain was assessed on cultivars ofGossypium hirsutum, G. barbadense andG. arboreum, based upon Foliar Alteration Index (FAI) and Browning Index (BI) estimation. The strains in VCG1 were of both the cotton-defoliating pathotype and race 3 (on cotton) but were non pathogenic on tomato; those in VCG2 and VCG4 were of the nondefoliating pathotype and belonged to different races on cotton and on tomato. Hyaline mutants deriving from parental wild-type strain showed differences in pathogenicity but were always assigned to the parental VCG. A relationship was established between VCGs and the taxonomic position of host plants. Data fromnit pairings indicated that the sub-populations ofV. dahliae (VCGs) may not be completely isolated genetically.  相似文献

Gibberella zeae (anamorph Fusarium graminearum) is the main pathogen causing Fusarium head blight of wheat in Argentina. The objective of this study was to determine the vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) and mycotoxin production (deoxynivalenol, nivalenol and 3-acetyl deoxynivalenol) by F. graminearum populations isolated from wheat in Argentina. VCGs were determined among 70 strains of F. graminearum isolated from three localities in Argentina, using nitrate non-utilizing (nit) mutants. Out of 367 nit mutants generated, 41% utilized both nitrite and hypoxanthine (nit1), 45% utilized hypoxanthine but not nitrite (nit3), 9% utilized nitrite but not hypoxanthine (NitM) and 5% utilized all the nitrogen sources (crn). The complementations were done by pairing the mutants on nitrate medium. Fifty-five different VCGs were identified and the overall VCG diversity (number of VCGs/number of isolates) averaged over the three locations was 0.78. Forty-eight strains were incompatible with all others, thus each of these strains constituted a unique VCG. Twenty-two strains were compatible with other isolates and were grouped in seven multimembers VCGs. Considering each population separately, the VCG diversity was 0.84, 0.81 and 1.0 for San Antonio de Areco, Alberti and Marcos Juarez, respectively. Toxin analysis revealed that of the 70 strains of F. graminearum tested, only 90% produced deoxynivalenol, 10% were able to produce deoxynivalenol and very low amounts of 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol. No isolate produced nivalenol. The results indicate a high degree of VCG diversity in the F. graminearum populations from wheat in Argentina. This diversity should be considered when screening wheat germplasm for Fusarium head blight resistance.  相似文献

Seventy-nine single-spore isolates of Fusarium udum, the causal agent of wilt disease of pigeonpea, from Kenya, India and Malawi were characterized according to their cultural characteristics, pathogenicity and vegetative compatibility group (VCG). The isolates exhibited high variation in pathogenicity on a wilt-susceptible pigeonpea variety, and in mycelial growth and sporulation on potato dextrose agar medium. The 79 isolates were categorized into two virulence groups, two groups of radial mycelial growth and four groups of sporulation. Radial mycelial growth showed a moderate negative correlation (r = –0.40; P = 0.01) with sporulation. However, mycelial growth and sporulation had no correlation with virulence. Pairings between complementary nitrate non-utilizing (nit) mutants of F. udum generated on chlorate containing minimal medium revealed that all the isolates belonged to a single VCG (VCG 1) with two subgroups, VCG 1 I and VCG 1 II. Vegetative compatibility was independent of cultural characteristics and pathogenicity. This is the first report of vegetative compatibility in F. udum.  相似文献

Fusarium corm rot of saffron (Crocus sativus L.), incited by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. gladioli, causes severe yield losses in Italy. Major symptoms during flowering (October–November) include yellowing and wilting of shoots, basal stem rot and corm rot. Sixty-four isolates of F. oxysporum f. sp. gladioli, obtained from infected saffron crops located in Italy (Abruzzi, Tuscany and Umbria) and in Spain, were characterized by pathogenicity and vegetative compatibility. Chlorate-resistant, nitrate-nonutilizing (nit) mutants were used to determine vegetative compatibility among the isolates of the pathogen with the aim of examining the genetic relatedness among populations from different locations. All the isolates belonged to vegetative compatibility group 0340. Since saffron shares susceptibility to F. oxysporum f. sp. gladioli with other ornamental plants of the Iridaceae (Crocus, Gladiolus, Iris and Ixia), it is likely that a clone of the pathogen (VCG 0340) was introduced with other hosts and is responsible for the disease outbreak observed on saffron in Italy. Alternatively, or additionally, the clone of F. oxysporum f. sp. gladioli causing disease on saffron in other countries may have spread to the saffron fields in Italy through the import and dispersal of infested propagation material.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to develop new polymorphic markers for analysis of genetic diversity in the fungal soilborne plant pathogen Verticillium dahliae. Twelve polymorphic markers (five microsatellites and seven polymorphic sequences) were developed from a genomic library enriched for microsatellites. Screening of polymorphic loci was done using a collection of 25 V. dahliae isolates of diverse geographic origins, host sources and vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs). Three methods were used to score alleles: polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE), sequencing of PCR‐amplified loci, and capillary electrophoresis. The new markers were used to assess genetic differentiation between isolates associated with different host plants. Two collections of isolates were analysed, obtained from artichoke (30 isolates) and potato (20 isolates) from crops grown in rotation located in the same area in eastern‐central Spain. The resolution of genetic differentiation between these two collections using the new markers was compared to that provided by other often‐used markers (SCARs and VCGs). Sequence analysis of the alleles proved to be the most unambiguous technique for scoring microsatellite data. The relatively high genetic differentiation observed between isolates from different crops (genetic differentiation coefficient, GST = 0·24) and their high genotypic diversity suggest a divergence between V. dahliae from artichoke and potato. It is hypothesized that evolution of V. dahliae from the local resident population in association with the two host crops has occurred. The new markers are useful for resolving population structure within V. dahliae and may contribute to a better understanding of the population biology of this fungus.  相似文献

Anthracnose, caused byColletotrichum gloeosporioides, is the major disease of almond in Israel. Pathogen attack of young fruit results in fruit rot and leaf wilting. Seventy isolates ofC. gloeosporioides were obtained from affected almond fruits collected at 11 sites during 1991–2 and 1994. Chlorate-resistant nitrate-nonutilizing (nit) mutants were generated from each isolate and used in complementation (heterokaryon) tests. The formation of complementary stable heterokaryons between mutants from different isolates showed that all the isolates belonged to a single vegetative compatibility group. Representative isolates ofC. gloeosporioides from almond did not form heterokaryons with local isolates ofColletotrichum from anemone and avocado, indicating that the almond isolates constitute a distinct subspecific group withinC. gloeosporioides.  相似文献

Almond anthracnose caused by Glomerella cingulata is a major disease of this crop in Israel. The pathogen infects young fruit resulting in fruit rot. Leaf wilting and shoot dieback accompany fruit rot, even though the pathogen cannot be isolated from leaves or twigs. Isolates of G. cingulata from diseased almond fruit were compared using vegetative compatibility grouping (VCG), molecular methods, fungicide sensitivity and pathogenicity assays in order to determine the genetic diversity and host specificity among different populations. Polymerase chain reaction amplification of genomic DNA, using four primers produced uniform banding patterns for all the almond isolates from different geographic locations in Israel. HaeIII digestion patterns of A + T-rich DNA, and Southern hybridization of the repetitive nuclear DNA element (GcpR1) to PstI-digested genomic DNA of almond isolates also revealed no polymorphism. Chlorate-resistant nitrate-nonutilizing (nit) mutants were generated and used in heterokaryon tests. Complementary heterokaryons formed between the mutants of different isolates indicated a single VCG. Isolates of G. cingulata from almond had optimal growth temperatures of 20–22°C as opposed to 26–28°C for avocado isolates. In addition, almond isolates of G. cingulata are insensitive to benzimidazole fungicides in contrast to sensitivity of isolates from avocado. In artificial inoculations, almond isolates infected almond, avocado, apple, mango and nectarine fruit at a slower rate than G. cingulata isolates from avocado, apple and mango. Only the anamorph Colletotrichum gloeosporioides has been detected on almond in Israel, whereas isolates of G. cingulata from other hosts produce ascocarps.  相似文献

Acremonium cucurbitacearum is a soil-borne pathogen that causes collapse of muskmelon and watermelon plants. Cluster analysis based on RAPD patterns, obtained from use of 25 primers, divided isolates of A. cucurbitacearum from Spain and USA into two major groups. Most isolates from the USA fell into group 1, however, genetic similarity was not highly correlated with geographical origins or with previously established VCG groups. Analysis of 5.8S-ITS sequences showed very little sequence variation among isolates of A. cucurbitacearum, most had identical 5.8S-ITS sequence. Nodulisporium melonis, previously reported to cause a similar disease in Japan, had a 5.8S-ITS sequence that was identical to that of isolate A-419 proposed as the type strain of A cremonium cucurbitacearum suggesting that the two fungal pathogens should be considered a single species. Phylogenetic analysis, based on the 5.8S-ITS region, indicated that A cremonium cucurbitacearum is a monophyletic taxon more closely related to Plectosphaerella cucumerina than to other species of the genus Acremonium. Based on the 5.8S-ITS nucleotide sequence, a polymerase chain reaction was designed and used for specific detection of A. cucurbitacearum in diseased plants.  相似文献

The pathogenicity and vegetative compatibility of mainly Dutch isolates ofFusarium oxysporum collected from diseased gladioli and other Iridaceae were investigated. Based on their pathogenicity to two differential gladiolus cultivars, the isolates could tentatively be divided into two races. All self-compatible isolates ofFusarium oxysporum f.sp.gladioli belonged to one of three distinct vegetative compatibility groups, VCG 0340, 0341 or 0342, and were incompatible with isolates that were not pathogenic to gladiolus. Isolates of one of the two races were restricted to one VCG while isolates of the other race were present in all three VCGs.  相似文献

Variation of Diplodia seriata, a fungal species associated with botryosphaeria dieback of grapevine, was investigated with respect to its genetic, phenotypic and pathogenic characteristics. The inter‐simple sequence repeat (ISSR) technique was used to investigate the genetic diversity of 83 isolates of D. seriata. Five ISSR primers were able to provide reproducible and polymorphic DNA fingerprint patterns, thus showing a relevant genetic variability in the species. Analyses of ISSR data by different clustering methods grouped the isolates into two distinct clusters through the Bayesian and DAPC analyses. No relationships between either geographic or host origin of isolates and genetic clusters were observed. Several representative isolates from each genetic cluster were chosen for studying their conidial dimensions, in vitro mycelial growth, vegetative and mating compatibility, and pathogenicity on detached grapevine canes and potted vines. No significant differences in conidial dimensions were detected among the groups. Vegetative compatibility reactions were observed among isolates but this was not related with the genetic clustering. Production of sexual fruiting bodies in vegetative compatible crossings was not observed under the experimental conditions used in the study. All 14 isolates tested for pathogenicity were confirmed to be pathogenic according to the length of the necrotic lesions that they caused and their reisolation frequencies from the infected plant tissues. Differences in the length of necrosis were detected among isolates, thus revealing the existence of different virulence levels in the species.  相似文献

Eleven nitrate non-utilizing (nit) mutants were recovered from six field isolates ofMagnaporthe grisea that had different degrees of sensitivity to the blasticide kitazin P (iprobenfos, IBP). Allnit mutants were resistant to chlorate and there were no significant differences in hyphal growth rate, conidial production, sensitivity to IBP, and pathogenicity betweennit mutants and their parent isolates.nit phenotypes and IBP-resistance were used as two independent genetic markers to study asexual recombination inM. grisea. Asexual recombinants were recovered from the heterokaryotic mycelium of three inter-strain pairings, namely, DY2-3(nitl-LR) + A7-3 (nitM-S); A7-3 (nitM-S) + F4-2 (nitl-MR); and F4-2 (nitl-MR) + DY2-4 (nitA-LR), at a frequency of 7.31%, 14.00% and 8.63%, respectively. The growth rate, conidial production and pathogenicity of asexual recombinants were similar to those of parental strains. We concluded that asexual recombination resulting from hyphal fusion might contribute to variability inM. grisea. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting Nov. 14, 2005.  相似文献

Thirty-nine isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri – the causal agent of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) wilt – collected from different parts of India and representing eight races of the pathogen, were analyzed for virulence and classified on the basis of vegetative compatibility grouping (VCG). The wilt incidence ranged from 24% to 100% on a highly susceptible cultivar JG 62. Six isolates, from Delhi, Gujarat, Karnataka, Punjab and Rajasthan and belonging to six different races of the pathogen, caused 100% wilt incidence. Five isolates belonging to four different races, namely, Foc 143 from Andhra Pradesh, Foc 161 from Chhattisgarh, Foc 146 from Karnataka, Foc 158 from Madhya Pradesh and Foc 50 from Rajasthan, caused low wilt incidence. For VCG analysis, nitrate non-utilizing mutants (nit) were obtained by culturing wild-type isolates on 2.5% potassium chlorate and selecting resistant sectors. Complementary nit mutants were paired in all possible combinations to determine varying degrees of heterokaryon formation within the isolates, which showed that most of the isolates were self-compatible. Pairing of all the mutants showed that the isolates included in the present study belonged to a single VCG (0280). Thus, in spite of variability in the virulence, the Indian populations of the pathogen have only one VCG.  相似文献
