Eighty isolates ofVerticillium dahliae from the southeastern Anatolia region and 20 isolates from the east Mediterranean region from wilted cotton plants were used for vegetative compatibility analysis employing nitrate non-utilizing mutants and reference tester strains of vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) 1A, 2A, 2B, 3, 4A and 4B. Of the 100V. dahliae isolates, 49 were assigned to VCG1A, 39 to VCG2B, nine to VCG2A and three to VCG4B. Pathogenicity assays were conducted on susceptible cotton cv. Çukurova 1518 in the greenhouse. All VCG1A isolates induced defoliation and all VCG2B isolates caused partial defoliation symptoms. Isolates of VCG2A and VCG4B caused typical symptoms of leaf chlorosis without defoliation. This is the first report on VCGs ofV. dahliae in the southeastern Anatolia region of Turkey, which demonstrates that VCG1A of the cotton-defoliating type and VCG2B of the partially defoliating type are prevalent in this region.  相似文献   

Cellular reactions in Arabidopsis following challenge by strains of Pseudomonas syringae: From basal resistance to compatibility

Reactions to strains of the bean halo-blight pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola (Pph) strain 1448A and the Arabidopsis and tomato pathogen P.s. pv. tomato (Pst) strain DC3000 were examined by transmission electron microscopy. Wild-type and hrpL mutant strains of Pph failed to multiply in the accession Columbia (Col)-5, but did not cause a hypersensitive reaction (HR). Symptomless non-host resistance to 1448A and the hrpL mutant was associated with the progressive alteration of the plant cell wall adjacent to bacteria, following the accumulation of membrane bound vesicles within the cytoplasm at reaction sites. Large papillae containing callose accumulated within challenged plant cells. Papillae also formed in the pmr4–1 mutant of Col-0 which lacks an inducible callose synthase but immunocytochemical labelling demonstrated that they contained very little β-1, 3 glucan. Some papillae formed in Col-5 in response to the virulent pathogen DC3000, but they dispersed during cell collapse and lesion formation. Transconjugants of Pph expressing the avirulence genes avrPpiA and avrPphB matching the RPM1 and RPS5 resistance genes, caused rapid and slow HR development, respectively. Although corpse morphology was observed our observations suggest that in Arabidopsis, plant cell death during the HR is programmed but represents a variant of necrosis rather than apoptosis. Cerium chloride staining revealed the accumulation of H₂O₂ at reaction sites. The strongest H₂O₂ response was found during the HR activated by avrPpiA but localised generation of peroxide was also found at sites of papilla deposition next to 1448A or the hrpL mutant. Accumulation of H₂O₂ during the HR, but not during wall alterations, was strongly suppressed by inhibition of NADPH oxidase. The differential effect of the inhibitor suggests an alternative source of H₂O₂ to modify the plant wall. Extension of peroxide-driven cross-linking reactions to bacterial cell walls may contribute to the restriction of bacterial multiplication. The lowest level of H₂O₂ occurred during the compatible reaction to DC3000. Characterisation of the cellular co-ordination of basal (non-host) resistance has revealed several potential targets for bacterial effector proteins.  相似文献
