Infection processes of Pyrenophora semeniperda on seedling and adult wheat leaves and wheat ears were investigated. Almost 100% germination of conidia occurred on seedling leaves, compared with 20–30% on adult leaves. Appressoria formed over the anticlinal epidermal cell walls and haloes always accompanied infection. Sometimes papillae formed within the leaves as a resistance mechanism. Infection hyphae ramified through the intercellular spaces of the mesophyll resulting in cellular disruption. The infection processes on floral tissues were similar to those observed on leaves; however, no infection occurred on anther, stigmatic or stylar tissues. Infection of ovarian tissue occurred both with and without appressoria formation. Hyphae grew mainly in the epidermal layers and appeared unable to breach the integumental layer as no growth was observed in endosperm or embryo tissues. The optimum dew period temperature for conidial germination was 23·6°C, compared with 19·9°C for lesion development, 20·4°C for the production of infection structures on seedling leaves and 23·7°C for floret infection. Leaf disease development occurred in a logistic manner in response to dew period, with maximum infection observed after 21 h compared with > 48 h in seeds. An initial dark phase during the dew period was necessary for infection and temperature after the dew period had an effect, with significantly more numerous and larger lesions being formed at 15°C compared with 30°C. Seedling leaves were found to be more susceptible than older leaves, under both field and controlled environment conditions. Infection of wheat seeds following inoculation of ears, or after harvest burial of inoculated disease-free seeds, was demonstrated. In the latter, 3-week-old seedlings were slightly stunted, whereas older plants were unaffected. The apparent unimportance of this plant pathogen as a cause of leaf disease in relation to its poor adaptation to dew periods and dew period temperature is discussed, along with the importance of its seed borne characteristics. 相似文献

The influence of the interaction between rectangularity (distance between rows divided by distance between plants within rows) and density on wheat (cv. Condor) grain yield was examined. Experiments over three contrasting seasons in central New South Wales compared crops sown at high (200 plants per square metre) and low (40 to 75 plants per square metre) densities over rectangularities 1 to 6·4.The results for three seasons conformed to a common trend. At high density, crop yields remained stable over the range of rectangularities. At low density, yields decreased with increasing rectangularity. Harvest index was constant across treatments within years.These results suggested that the time course of exploitation of space was more important in determining crop yields than any active interference (allelopathy) between plants, although passive interference in the form of reduced availability of biological space probably played a part. These effects can be conceptualized by a dynamic model in which plant growth proceeds in a uniform radial fashion, until limited, in areas where neighbours are encountered. 相似文献

The effect of temperature and light after spraying on the activity of flumetsulam and metosulam when applied to seedlings of Raphanus raphanistrum was evaluated under controlled environments. Flumetsulam and metosulam were applied at 0.01–3 times the recommended doses and the plants were subjected to a range of temperatures after spraying. Herbicide activity was estimated from dose–response curves of fresh weight. Varying the temperature after spraying from 1 to 20 °C increased the activity of flumetsulam and metosulam, as determined by comparison of ED50 , by a factor of 97 and 7 respectively. Large increases in herbicide activity occurred in the 1–5 °C range and smaller but significant increases at temperatures greater than 5 °C. No significant differences in the activity of the herbicides were found when the plants were subjected to light or dark conditions at 5 °C after spraying. The influence of temperature on activity may lead to opportunities for rate adjustment of flumetsulam and metosulam based on the temperature prevailing around the time of spraying. 相似文献

ABSTRACT There is no evidence that Pyrenophora semeniperda, the causal agent of leaf spotting in many annual and perennial grasses, currently occurs in Europe or Asia. However, there is potential phytosanitary concern that the importation of infected commodities could result in the introduction of this fungus into Eurasia, putting crops at risk and possibly resulting in economic losses. To assist in assessing the risk of geographic range extension of P. semeniperda, an analysis was undertaken to estimate the potential global distribution of this species, based on climatic suitability. Geographic distribution data for P. semeniperda in part of its current range were used to fit parameter values in a CLIMEX pest risk assessment model, and the remaining distribution data were used to validate the model. The CLIMEX model correctly predicts that virtually all locations where P. semeniperda has been found are climatically suitable. Only five locations worldwide where the fungus was recorded present are predicted as being unsuitable. These "outliers" may have been transient populations occurring during a favorable season and then dying out. Exploratory adjustments of the model to accommodate these records created unsatisfactory distortions in the projected climatic suitability surfaces, extending the suitable climatic zone beyond well-established traditional range boundaries. We are therefore confident that the model is credibly predicting the potential distribution of P. semeniperda worldwide. The CLIMEX model suggests that P. semeniperda could potentially extend its range throughout Europe and temperate regions of Asia, Africa, and South America. Our heavy reliance upon geographic data to build this CLIMEX model departs from most previous published examples in plant pathology, which have depended primarily upon experimentally derived physiological data to estimate model parameters. The use of geographic data to infer climate parameters is popular in CLIMEX models of weeds and arthropod pests and can provide decision-makers with early risk assessments of potential pathogen invasions, particularly where the pathogens have long, or difficult-to-study, lifecycles. 相似文献

Summary The effectiveness of crop competition for better weed control and reducing herbicide rates was determined for Avena ludoviciana and Phalaris paradoxa . Four experiments, previously broadcast with seeds of the two weeds in separate plots, were sown with three wheat densities, and emerged weeds were treated with four herbicide doses (0–100% of recommended rate). The measured crop and weed traits were first analysed across experiments for treatment effects. Grain yield and weed seed production data were then analysed using cubic smoothing splines to model the response surfaces. Although herbicide rate for both weeds and crop density for P. paradoxa had significant linear effects on yield, there was a significant non-linearity of the response surface. Similarly, herbicide rate and crop density had significant linear effects on weed seed production, and there was significant non-linearity of the response surface that differed for the weed species. Maximum crop yield and reduction in seed production of P. paradoxa was achieved with approximately 80 wheat plants m−2 and weeds treated with 100% herbicide rate. For A. ludoviciana , this was 130 wheat plants m−2 applied with 75% herbicide rate. Alternatively, these benefits were achieved by increasing crop density to 150 plants m−2 applied with 50% herbicide rate. At high crop density, application of the 100% herbicide rate tended to reduce yield, particularly with the A. ludoviciana herbicide, and this impacted adversely on the suppression of weed seed production. Thus, more competitive wheat crops have the potential for improving weed control and reducing herbicide rates. 相似文献

The effects of photoperiod, light quality, wounding and sealing of culture plates on in vitro growth and sporulation of Pyrenophora semeniperda were examined to define conditions conducive to the abundant and rapid production of conidia. For maximum growth and sporulation, the leaf-spotting and seedborne plant pathogen required an alternating light/dark sequence. Fewer conidia were produced under conditions of constant illumination or constant darkness. Growth was enhanced by light of wavelengths longer than 500 nm, while sporulation was enhanced by light of wavelengths shorter than 500 nm. Sporulation was enhanced under conditions of alternating temperature with a diurnal photoperiod and by mycelial wounding. Sealing of Petri plates had an inhibitory effect on sporulation. Significantly more conidia of higher quality formed when unsealed cultures, wounded after 7 days, were exposed to 23°C during the light phase and 19°C during darkness. Under these optimal conditions, conidial numbers were increased by 800% or more compared with unwounded cultures grown at constant 25°C in 12 h alternating cool-white light. 相似文献

Changes in germinability, dormancy and viability of Amaranthus retroflexus as affected by depth and duration of burial 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2
Changes in dormancy and viability of Amaranthus retroflexus seeds were examined after placement in pots that were buried in the field. Seeds were placed in woven nylon envelopes on the soil surface or buried at depths of 2.5, 5 or 10 cm. After 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months seeds were exhumed and their germinability was tested to assess changes in dormancy and viability. Depletion of seed stocks placed on the soil surface was partly because of in situ germination that did not exceed 21% and did not vary significantly over the 12-month study period. Less germination of buried seeds occurred in situ , and seeds that did not germinate appeared to acquire dormancy. Exhumed seeds germinated readily; germinability was linearly related to the depth of burial, with those retrieved from the surface germinating least. Cyclical changes in germinability occurred during the 12-month burial period, but this influence was identical for seeds buried at all depths. Germinability was greatest after periods with the lowest mean monthly temperatures and least during the hottest periods. The stimulation of remaining ungerminated seeds exhumed at each period, by the addition of ethephon to the germination medium, provided further evidence of a seasonal acquisition of dormancy, and it was concluded that other unknown factors besides cyclical changes in seasonal temperature were responsible. Irrespective of placement, all seeds lost viability at an exponential rate over time. However, the decline was most rapid for those placed on the surface, whereas the loss in viability became less with increased depth of burial. Possible explanations for this adaptation of enhanced survival when buried are discussed. 相似文献
