Spread of Cryphonectria hypovirus1 into 45 vegetative compatibility types of Cryphonectria parasitica on grafted American chestnut trees
Authors:E P HOGAN  G J GRIFFIN
Abstract:A mixture of hypovirulent strains of Cryphonectria parasitica, including four white (European) strains infected with Cryphonectria hypovirus1 (CHV1), was used in 1982 and 1983 to inoculate natural blight cankers located within a zone ranging from the ground to 183 cm on grafted American chestnut trees. These four white strains belonged to three vegetative compatibility (vc) types. Using pigmented, single‐spore colonies from white isolates, 48 vc types were identified among 110 white isolates recovered in 1996, 1998, and 1999 from cankers located outside the inoculated zone. Twenty‐five of the 48 white vc types consisted of two or more isolates. The 25 major white vc types were vegetatively incompatible with all four of the original white hypovirulent strains, providing evidence for spread of CHV1 but not for spread of the original inoculated strains. Forty‐five vc types represent the minimum number of `new' vc types into which CHV1 had spread. The ratio of white vc types to white isolates tested (S/N) and Shannon diversity index were 0.436 and 3.64, respectively. The spatial pattern of white vc types on the grafts was found to be non‐random (p=0.019). White single‐spore colonies of white isolates were placed into four cultural morphology (CM) groups. The two largest groups contained 37 (CM group 3) and 33 (CM group 1) isolates. Single‐spore colonies from the original, white inoculated strain, Ep 49, were classified into CM groups 3 and 1, and colonies of Ep 51 W were classified into CM group 1.
