The biochemical basis of resistance of potato to soft rot bacteria     

G. D. Lyon  J. Heilbronn  R. S. Forrest  D. J. Johnston 《European journal of plant pathology / European Foundation for Plant Pathology》1992,98(2):127-133

Evidence is presented that a number of mechanisms are involved in the resistance of commercial cultivars of potato to soft rottingErwinia spp. These include phytoalexins, phenolics, cell wall modification, and possibly proteins. The role of elicitor-active oligogalacturonides, which are released from plant cell walls by pectic enzymes, is discussed.  相似文献   

Phytotoxicity on cotton ex-plants of an 18.5 kDa protein from culture filtrates of Verticillium dahliae     

Clovis S. Palmer  Jennifer A. Saleeba  Bruce R. Lyon   《Physiological and Molecular Plant Pathology》2005,67(6):427

A phytotoxic protein that evokes the typical symptoms of Verticillium wilt disease in seedlings of Gossypium hirsutum L. (Upland cotton) was isolated from culture filtrates of Verticillium dahliae. The protein was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, Sephadex-G100 fractionation, and native PAGE. The 18.5 kDa protein, designated VD18.5, appears to be a single subunit protein with an isoelectric point between 3 and 5. VD18.5 induces symptoms of leaf dehydration, chlorosis, necrosis and stem discoloration in seedlings of the disease susceptible cotton cultivar Siokra 1–4. The LD₅₀ of VD18.5 on protoplasts of Siokra 1–4 was 18 μg mL⁻¹. VD18.5 had no noticeable effect on Pima S-7, which is a disease resistant cultivar. Phytotoxic activity was partially destroyed at high temperature and was abolished by digestion with proteinase K. Mass spectrometry fingerprinting and protein sequence data from VD18.5 yielded no significant matches when submitted to the Mascot search engine and NCBI non-redundant protein databases, respectively. These results suggest that VD18.5 is a novel protein that may be involved in the development of some of the symptoms associated with Verticillium wilt disease in the cotton plant.  相似文献

Molecular, physiological and pathological characterization of Corynespora leaf spot fungi from rubber plantations in Sri Lanka   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4

The plant pathogenic fungus Corynespora cassiicola causes a severe leaf spot disease on more than 70 host plant species including Hevea brasiliensis . Genetic variability in 32 isolates of C. cassiicola collected from diverse hosts and locations in Sri Lanka and Australia was assessed using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of ribosomal DNA and random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR) analysis of total fungal DNA. Amplified ITS fragments from all 32 C. cassiicola isolates exhibited an identical size, and restriction analysis with seven different restriction endonucleases revealed identity in all of the detected DNA fragments. This finding of high genetic relatedness was further supported by the cloning and DNA sequencing of the ITS2 region from one Sri Lankan and one Australian isolate. However, RAPD-PCR profiles generated by 15 oligonucleotide decamer primers revealed significant polymorphism between groups of organisms. Genetic relationships among the isolates were determined by cluster analysis of the RAPD-PCR data and seven different RAPD groups were identified. Isolates showed strong correlations between the assigned RAPD group and the location and host plant genotype from which the isolate was collected. Correlations were also observed between the RAPD group, growth of the isolate and pathogenicity on different plant hosts.  相似文献   

Management of inappetant sheep during export by sea     

RT NORRIS  CL McDONALD  RB RICHARDS  MW HYDER  SP GITTINS  GJ NORMAN 《Australian veterinary journal》1990,67(7):244-247

In the first of 2 experiments, a simulated voyage was conducted to examine the effects of various treatments on bodyweight change and feeding frequency of inappetant sheep at the end of lot-feeding (non-feeders). The treatments, applied during simulated shipping, were: normal quantities of feed and length of troughs; extra trough length; extra feed. Adult Merino wethers (n = 108) were used in each treatment. A voyage to the Middle East was then conducted to establish whether shipboard mortality could be reduced by separating non-feeders (n = 305) from feeders (n = 5,620) late in the feedlot hase and housing the groups separately aboard ship. A control group of non-feeders (n = 215) mixed with feeders (n = 5,732) was used for comparison. Bars (marker bars), containing a coloured dye, were attached to feed troughs to mark sheep that fed. Most non-feeders (82%) began eating when placed in shipping pens in both studies. However, there was no significant difference in percentage of sheep that fed between non-feeders given extra trough length or extra feed compared with non-feeders given standard management at any stage of simulated shipping. There was no significant difference in mean bodyweights between treatment groups on days 1, 8 and 15 of simulated shipping. Differences in bodyweight on d 22 were probably associated with different levels of gut fill. Death rates were not significantly different in separated and control groups (1.1%, 0.9%, P = 0.6) in the voyage of 14 d to the Middle East.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献   

Unusually rapid growth and adult stature in an American hairless terrier puppy     

S. D. Lyon    J. Toll    T. Schermerhorn 《The Journal of small animal practice》2009,50(8):431-434

A puppy was evaluated for rapid growth and large stature. Extensive diagnostic evaluation suggested a growth hormone independent disorder. As the sole detected abnormality was elevated leptin concentration, an obesity syndrome causing leptin resistance was speculated to explain the puppy's condition but was not confirmed. Except for large body size, the puppy remained clinically normal.  相似文献
