Several new species of the genus Sphingomonas including S. aromaticivorans, S. stygia, and S. subterranea that have the capacity for degrading a broad range of aromatic compounds including toluene, naphthalene, xylenes, p-cresol, fluorene, biphenyl, and dibenzothiophene, were isolated from deeply-buried (>200 m) sediments of the US Atlantic
coastal plain (ACP). In S. aromaticivorans F199, many of the genes involved in the catabolism of these aromatic compounds are encoded on a 184-kb conjugative plasmid;
some of the genes involved in aromatic catabolism are plasmid-encoded in the other strains as well. Members of the genus Sphingomonas were common among aerobic heterotrophic bacteria cultured from ACP sediments and have been detected in deep subsurface environments
elsewhere. The major source of organic carbon for heterotrophic metabolism in ACP deep aquifers is lignite that originated
from plant material buried with the sediments. We speculate that the ability of the subsurface Sphingomonas strains to degrade a wide array of aromatic compounds represents an adaptation for utilization of sedimentary lignite. These
and related subsurface Sphingomonas spp may play an important role in the transformation of sedimentary organic carbon in the aerobic and microaerobic regions
of the deep aquifers of the ACP.

The Sphingomonas genus hosts many interesting pollutant-degrading strains. Sphingomonas sp. EPA505 is the best studied polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-degrading Sphingomonas strain. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, Sphingomonas sp. strain EPA505 forms a separate branch in the Sphingomonas phylogenetic tree grouping exclusively PAH-degrading isolates. For specific PCR detection and monitoring of Sphingomonas sp. EPA505 and related strains in PAH-contaminated soils, a new 16S rRNA gene-based primer set was designed. The new primer set was shown to be highly selective for Sphingomonas sp. strain EPA505 as it only amplified DNA from strain EPA505 and not from other tested Sphingomonas strains or soil bacteria not belonging to the Sphingomonas genus. Using DNA extracts of a variety of inoculated PAH-contaminated soils, the primer pair was able to detect EPA505 in concentrations as low as 102 cells per gram of soil. Applying the new primer set, 16S rRNA gene fragments which were 99–100% similar to the corresponding gene of strain EPA505 were amplified from four of five PAH-contaminated soils. On the other hand, no PCR products were obtained from any of five tested uncontaminated soils. The preferential presence of EPA505 related Sphingomonas strains in PAH-contaminated soils with very different contamination profiles and different origin suggests an important role of this type of Sphingomonas in the natural Sphingomonas community colonizing PAH-contaminated sites. 相似文献

Four pentachlorophenol (PCP)-degrading bacteria isolated from geographically diverse areas have been examined in detail as
regards their physiology and phylogeny. According to traditional biochemical methods, these strains had been classified as
members of the genera Arthrobacter, Flavobacterium, Pseudomonas, and Sphingomonas. The PCP degradation pathway has been studied extensively in Sphingomonas (Flavobacterium) sp strain ATCC 39723 and the first three degradation steps catalyzed by a PCP-4-monooxygenase (PcpB) and a reductive dehalogenase
(PcpC) that functions twice are well established. A fourth step appears to involve ring-fission of the aromatic nucleus (PcpA).
Molecular analyses revealed that the PCP degradation pathway in these four strains was rather conserved, leading to a phylogenetic
analysis using 16S rDNA. The results revealed a much closer phylogenetic relationship between these organisms than traditional
classification indicated, placing them into the more recently established genus Sphingomonas where they may even represent a single species. With 16S rDNA analysis, many bacterial isolates involved in degradation of
xenobiotic compounds that were previously classified into diverse genera have been reclassified into the genus Sphingomonas.

A total of 800 samples was taken from Taegu province, Korea, where many textile factories provide a source of polyvinyl alcohol
(PVA) waste. These samples were screened for PVA-degrading bacteria. A new strain, SA3, was discovered which formed yellow
colonies and used PVA as the sole carbon and energy source. Strain SA3 was identified as a Sphingomonas sp., based on the partial nucleotide sequence analysis of 16S ribosomal RNA, the presence of 2-hydroxymyristic acid (14:O
2-OH) and sphingolipids with d-17:0, d-18:0, d-19:1, and d-20:1 as the main dihydrosphingosines. This genus has not previously
been reported as a PVA-degrading bacterium. Sphingomonas sp. SA3 needs a symbiote strain, SA2, for PVA degradation as a growth factor producer. In mixed cultures of these strains,
the optimum temperature for PVA biodegradation ranged from 30 °C to 35 °C. The optimum pH was 8.0 and the most effective nitrogen
source was NH4

Seedling stand, disease severity and fungal incidence were determined from untreated ‘Wakefield’ soft red winter wheat planted on a Leeper silty clay loam in field tests conducted at the Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station, Plant Science Research Center, Mississippi State University, Starkville, Mississippi during the 1996–97 and 1997–98 growing seasons. Seedling stand was reduced by 40% each year in plots established with untreated seed. Cochliobolus sativus was the most frequently isolated fungus. Fusarium acuminatum, Fusarium equiseti and Fusarium solani were the most prevalent Fusarium spp. Seven other Fusarium spp. and 23 species of other fungal genera were isolated. Pathogenicity tests with three isolates each of C. sativus, Cochliobolus spicifer, F. acuminatum, F. solani, F. equiseti, Fusarium compactum, Embellisia chlamydospora and Microdochium bolleyi were performed in test tube culture and two isolates each of C. sativus, C. spicifer, F. acuminatum, E. chlamydospora and M. bolleyi under greenhouse conditions. In test tubes and in the greenhouse, seedlings infected with isolates of C. sativus developed seedling blight, discoloration and necrosis, primarily in seminal roots and crowns. In the greenhouse, C. sativus induced lesions on the lower leaf sheath and reduced seedling height, seedling emergence, dry and fresh weight of roots and shoots. Isolates of F. acuminatum, F. solani, F. equiseti, F. compactum, E. chlamydospora and M. bolleyi induced slight to moderate orange to light‐brown discoloration of crown and seminal roots in test tubes. Cochliobolus spicifer isolates had the most pre‐emergence activity, inducing black root discoloration and root pruning of wheat seedlings and reducing seedling emergence, root fresh weight and shoot dry weight. In the greenhouse, F. acuminatum reduced seedling height, seedling emergence and root and shoot dry weights. Microdochium bolleyi and E. chlamydospora reduced fresh and dry weight of roots, plant emergence and shoot dry weight. Fusarium acuminatum and C. spicifer reduced the growth rate of wheat seedlings. All fungi evaluated showed increased disease severity compared to the untreated control. The high frequency of isolation of C. sativus from crown and root tissues can be partially explained by the dry, warm conditions during the early stages of wheat seedling development in the Upper Coastal Plain Land Resource Area of Mississippi. 相似文献

Fusarium Head Blight Reactions and Accumulation of Deoxynivalenol (DON) and Some of its Derivatives in Kernels of Wheat, Triticale and Rye 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Fifty-three commercially grown cultivars and germplasm lines of winter triticale (n = 18), wheat (n = 13), and rye (n = 5) and spring triticale (n = 8), wheat (n = 7) and rye (n = 2) were inoculated at mid anthesis with a spore suspension consisting of a mixture of Fusarium culmorum, Fusarium avenaceum and Fusarium graminearum isolates of known toxinogenic activity. Reactions to Fusarium head blight were measured as disease severity, reductions of kernel number/head, kernel weight/head and 1000 kernel weight, number of Fusarium-damaged kernels and kernel content of deoxynivalenol (DON) and its acetyl-derivatives 3-AcDON, 15-AcDON, and moniliformin. None of the cereal genotypes was completely resistant to Fusarium head blight. Wheat suffered from the largest kernel weight reductions, and accumulated the largest amounts of deoxynivalenol (up to 39.5 mg/kg) and 3AcDON (up to 6.0 mg/kg) in kernels. Deoxynivalenol was not detected in grain samples of winter rye cv. Dańkowskie Z?ote, and spring rye cv. Ludowe. 15-AcDON was only detected in genotypes of triticale, and 3AcDON only in a few genotypes of winter wheat and rye. Moniliformin was detected at low concentrations (up to 0.092 mg/kg) in kernels of some genotypes selected for the mycotoxin analysis. A moderately strong Pearson correlation was found between head blight severity parameters and the accumulation of deoxynivalenol and its derivatives in grain of the cereal genotypes studied. Fusarium head blight severity parameters were correlated with the percentage of Fusarium-damaged kernels and reductions of yield components. However, some head blight-susceptible genotypes realized their potential yields, but accumulated high levels of mycotoxins in kernels. Both Fusarium head blight resistant and susceptible genotypes of the three cereal species accumulated deoxynivalenol in kernels. This finding suggests that the system regulating deoxynivalenol accumulation may be independent of Fusarium head blight reaction. 相似文献

The effects of Fusarium avenaceum and Fusarium culmorum on the reduction in yield components, after independent inoculation of 14 winter wheat cultivars, were investigated. Single isolates of F. avenaceum and F. culmorum were independently used in inoculations of winter wheat heads. Reductions in the following yield traits: 1000‐kernel weight (TKW), the weight (WKH) and number (NKH) of kernels per head after inoculation were analysed statistically. The results indicate differences between both pathogens in their effects on yield traits. The statistical calculations were performed using analysis of variance (a three‐factor experiment) for particular yield trait reductions and multivariate analysis of variance for the yield trait reductions jointly. Almost all of the univariate and multivariate hypotheses concerning no differences between pathogens (F. culmorum, F. avenaceum), climatic conditions (years) and cultivars as well as hypotheses concerning no interactions between factors (pathogens, years, cultivars) were rejected at least at P= 0.05 significance level. The reduction of yield traits indicated individual reactions of the tested winter wheat cultivars to different pathogens. Among the tested traits the highest influence on the rejection of the hypothesis concerning the equivalence of F. avenaceum and F. culmorum was observed for TKW and WKH. The effect of the pathogen on yield reduction was greater for F. avenaceum than for F. culmorum during 1996 and 1997. A comparison of the cultivars indicated that the Begra cultivar showed the highest tolerance to inoculation with both Fusarium pathogens. Moreover, this genotype as well as several others showed lower tolerance to F. avenaceum rather than to F. culmorum, whereas Elena was the only cultivar with the opposite tendency. 相似文献

Seeds of 11 of 19 plant species tested yielded naturally occurring phenanthrene degrading bacteria when placed on phenanthrene impression plates. Seed associated phenanthrene degrading bacteria were mostly detected on caragana, Canada thistle, creeping red fescue, western wheatgrass, and tall wheat grass. Based on 16S rRNA analysis the most common bacteria isolated from these seeds were strains belonging to the genera Enterobacteria, Erwinia, Burkholderia, Pantoea, Pseudomonas, and Sphingomonas. These plants may provide an excellent source of pre-adapted bacterial-plant associations highly suitable for use in remediation of contaminated soil environments. 相似文献

Fusarium head blight (FHB), incited by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe is one of the most devastating diseases of wheat. Primary inoculum generated on crop residue is the driving force
of FHB epidemics. Fusarium survival on crop residues is affected by soil microbial antagonists. The incorporation of green manures has been shown to
increase the density and diversity of microbes in soils, particularly the density and the pathogen-inhibitory activity of
specific bacteria and fungi. Evidence of increased streptomycete populations in soil as a response to green manure incorporation,
and their negative effect on the survival of Fusarium oxysporum Schlechtendahl in soil, suggests their potential use to reduce the survival of related pathogens. There is, however, no precedent
for the use of green manures to promote indigenous streptomycete populations to control FHB. This study investigated the use
of green manures (sorghum–sudangrass hybrid [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench–S. bicolor (L.) Moench var. sudanense (Piper)] and common buckwheat [Fagopyrum esculentum (Moench)]) for reducing F. graminearum survival in association with wheat residues. Soil bacterial density, streptomycete density and the density and inhibitory
activity of F. graminearum-antagonists were monitored from planting until 3 and 6 months following the incorporation of green manures in greenhouse
and field experiments, respectively. The decomposition of wheat residues and survival of Fusarium in residues was also assessed. The use of green manures did not statistically impact the survival of F. graminearum in wheat residue. However, green manures promoted the development of higher densities and antagonistic abilities of F. graminearum-antagonists in soils. Additionally, streptomycete densities and F. graminearum-antagonist densities were significantly and positively correlated with reduced survival of Fusarium. The results of our study suggest that the use of green manures can enhance populations of indigenous soil microorganisms
antagonistic to the survival of F. graminearum in wheat residue. 相似文献

A new concept for reduction of diffuse contamination by simultaneous application of pesticide and pesticide-degrading microorganisms 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Pesticide residues and their transformation products are frequently found in groundwater and surface waters. This study examined
whether adding pesticide-degrading microorganisms simultaneously with the pesticide at application could significantly reduce
diffuse contamination from pesticide use. Degradation of the phenoxyacetic acid herbicides MCPA (4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic
acid) and 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) was studied in soil microcosm experiments after simultaneous spraying of
herbicide and herbicide-degrading bacteria on an agricultural soil and on a sand with low degradation potential. The latter
represented pesticide use on non-agricultural soils poor in microbial activity. Degradation and possible loss of herbicidal
effect were also tested in a system with plants and the amounts of bacteria needed to give satisfactory MCPA-degradation rate
and the survival of degrading bacteria in formulated MCPA were determined. The results showed >80–99% degradation of 2,4-D
and MCPA in soil within 1 day and >99% within 3 days after inoculation with 105–107 herbicide-degrading bacteria g−1 dry weight of soil. Enhanced degradation of MCPA was also obtained in the presence of winter wheat and white mustard without
loss of the intended herbicidal effect on white mustard. The survival of an isolated MCPA-degrading Sphingomonas sp. in three realistic concentrations of formulated MCPA was very poor, showing that in practical applications direct contact
between the microorganisms and the pesticide formulation must be precluded. The applicability and economic feasibility of
the method and the information needed to obtain a useable product for field use are discussed. 相似文献

Sphingomonas spp are phylogenetically placed in the α-4 subclass of Proteobacteria. They have glycosphingolipids (GSL) in their membranes instead of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as in other Gram-negative bacteria.
S. paucimobilis, the type species of the genus, has GSL-1, which contains only glucuronic acid (GlcA) as a sugar moiety, and GSL-4A, which
contains a tetrasaccharide including GlcA. GSL-1 and GSL-4A form the outer membrane of S. paucimobilis with outer membrane proteins and phospholipids. In the outer membrane, GSLs are assumed to locate and function as does the
LPS of other Gram-negative bacteria. Sphingomonas spp closely related to the type species contain both GSL-1 and the oligosaccharide-type GSL such as GSL-4A, but other Sphingomonas spp and other genera in the α-4 subclass of Proteobacteria contain only GSL-1. Structural variations of fatty acids and dihydrosphingosines in the GSL-1 are presented.

The increasing significance of members of the genus Sphingomonas in biotechnological applications has led to an increased interest in the diversity, abundance and ecophysiological potential
of this group of Gram-negative bacteria. This general focus provides a challenge to improve means for identification of sphingomonads;
eg molecular genetic methods for rapid and specific detection could facilitate screening of new isolates. Here, fluorescently
labeled oligonucleotide probes targeted against 16S rRNA were used to typify strains previously assigned to the genus. All
46 sphingomonads tested including type strains of 21 Sphingomonasspecies could be detected with a probe originally designed for the genus and all but one with a probe designed for the alpha-4
subgroup of the Proteobacteria. The two probes are suitable for direct detection of sphingomonads in pure and mixed cultures
as well as in environmental samples of unknown composition. The probes were used to identify sphingomonads in situ in activated sludge samples. Sphingomonads were rather abundant accounting for about 5–10% of the total cells in municipal
sludges. Distinct patterns in aggregation of the cells suggest that these organisms could be involved in the formation process
of sludge flocs.

Over the course of 5 years, different maize residue treatments were conducted on 14 zero tillage on-farm sites in Switzerland
to evaluate their effect on the development of Fusarium head blight (FHB) and the contamination with the mycotoxin deoxynivalenol
(DON) in winter wheat grains and wheat straw following grain maize. Two experimental series with three and five different
treatments were carried out, respectively. Fusarium graminearum (Schwabe) was the predominant FHB-causing species with an overall incidence of 15% infected wheat grains. A significant correlation
between symptoms in the field, F. graminearum incidence and DON content in wheat grains and wheat straw was observed. The average DON content in both wheat grains and
wheat straw was approximately 5,000 μg/kg and thus several times higher than the European maximum limit of 1,250 μg/kg for
unprocessed small-grain cereals for human consumption. Of all grain samples, 74% were above the maximum limit. Pooled over
both experimental series, the average reduction of DON in grains through treatments of the maize residue compared with a control
treatment ranged between 21 and 38%. The effect of various other factors, including the year, the wheat variety, the site,
the maize hybrid and the production system was evaluated as well. The year and the wheat variety were the most important FHB
influencing factors. Over all treatments, the variety Levis showed a fivefold higher average DON content compared with the
variety Titlis. From different categories of maize residue particles, intact pieces of 5–15 cm length were strongly correlated
with F. graminearum incidence and DON content in grains. During the time course of this study, the recommendation from a preliminary version
of the internet-based DON forecasting system FusaProg to apply or to omit a fungicide treatment was correct in 32 out of 42
cases. The results are currently being used to optimise the FusaProg models. This study has shown that in a grain maize/winter
wheat rotation, the DON content in wheat grains frequently exceeded the European maximum limit, even with a thorough treatment
of maize residues and less susceptible wheat varieties. Hence, in order to reduce the contamination risk in a zero tillage
system, the crop rotation needs to be modified. 相似文献

The aerobiology of fungi in the genus Fusarium is poorly understood. Many species of Fusarium are important pathogens of plants and animals and some produce dangerous secondary metabolites known as mycotoxins. In 2006
and 2007, autonomous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) were used to collect Fusarium 40–320 m above the ground at the Kentland Farm in Blacksburg, Virginia. Eleven single-spored isolates of Fusarium graminearum (sexual stage Gibberella zeae) collected with autonomous UAVs during fall, winter, spring, and summer months caused Fusarium head blight on a susceptible
cultivar of spring wheat. Trichothecene genotypes were determined for all 11 of the isolates; nine isolates were DON/15ADON,
one isolate was DON/3ADON, and one isolate was NIV. All of the isolates produced trichothecene mycotoxins in planta consistent with their trichothecene genotypes. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a NIV isolate of F. graminearum in Virginia, and DON/3ADON genotypes are rare in populations of the fungus recovered from infected wheat plants in the eastern
United States. Our data are considered in the context of a new aerobiological framework based on atmospheric transport barriers,
which are Lagrangian coherent structures present in the mesoscale atmospheric flow. This framework aims to improve our understanding
of population shifts of F. graminearum and develop new paradigms that may link field and atmospheric populations of toxigenic Fusarium spp. in the future. 相似文献

We report on the verification of a resistance quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 1BL (now designated Qfhs.lfl-1BL) which had been previously identified in the winter wheat cultivar Cansas. For a more precise estimation of the QTL effect
and its influence on plant height and heading date lines with a more homogeneous genetic background were created and evaluated
in four environments after spray inoculation with Fusarium culmorum. Qfhs.lfl-1BL reduced FHB severity by 42% relative to lines without the resistance allele. This QTL did not influence plant height, but
significantly delayed heading date by one day. All of the most resistant genotypes of the verification population carried
this major QTL displaying its importance for disease resistance. This resistance QTL has not only been found in the cultivar
Cansas, but also in the three European winter wheat cultivars Biscay, History and Pirat. A subsequent meta-analysis confirmed
the presence of a single QTL on the long arm of chromosome 1B originating from the four mentioned cultivars. Altogether, the
results of the present study indicate that Qfhs.lfl-1BL is an important component of FHB resistance in European winter wheat and support the view that this QTL would be effective
and valuable in backcross breeding programmes.

The chitinase enzyme was identified in isolated bacteria of maize rhizosphere as well as its potential for the biological control of fungi associated at seeds of the same plant. The production of chitinase enzyme was found in the genera identified as Acinetobacter, Bacterium, Burkholderia, Paenibacillus, Pseudomonas, Rhizobium, Shewanella, Sphingomonas and Stenotrophomonas. Bacterial isolates with ability to degrade fungal mycelium from maize fungi as Fusarium and Alternaria among others, were detected. Bacterial chitinase activity and the presence of the chiA gene were determined. The inoculation of chitinolytic bacteria showed a positive effect in the control of fungi in maize seeds. The results support the potential use of chitinase enzyme producing bacteria on the control of phytopathogenic fungi. 相似文献

Incidence of pseudomonads inhibitory to the root growth of till and no-till seeded crops winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), pea (Pisum sativum), lentil (Lens culinaris), and no-till winter barley (Hordeum vulgare), top and bottom of a seeded slope, and on the weed downy brome (Bromus tectorum) was investigated. Pseudomonads on the rhizoplane of these plants ranged from 106 to 108 colony-forming units (cfu) per gram dry weight of root. Neither tillage management nor site on a seeded slope affected colonizing
numbers. Total numbers of pseudomonads were reduced in a second sampling, particularly on winter barley roots. However, more
inhibitory pseudomonads were found in the second sampling. Several of the isolates, both inhibitory and stimulatory from different
host plants, were bioassayed against winter wheat seedlings. Generally, the effect was different on the winter wheat than
on the host plant indicating the organisms had some specificity. Several pseudomonads were isolated that severely reduced
downy brome root growth and not that of winter wheat.

Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) is a destructive disease that affects the grain yield and quality of cereals. The relationship between the natural defense chemicals benzoxazinoids and the FHB resistance of field grown winter wheat varieties was investigated. FHB resistance was assessed by the inoculation of wheat ears with mixtures of Fusarium avenaceum, Fusarium culmorum, Fusarium graminearum, and Microdochium nivale. 相似文献

Response of fluoranthene-degrading bacteria to surfactants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
P. A. Willumsen U. Karlson P. H. Pritchard 《Applied microbiology and biotechnology》1998,50(4):475-483
A prerequisite for surfactant-enhanced biodegradation is that the microorganisms survive, take up substrate and degrade it
in the presence of the surfactant. Two Mycobacterium and two Sphingomonas strains, degrading fluoranthene, were investigated for their sensitivity towards non-ionic chemical surfactants. The effect
of Triton X-100 and Tween 80 above their critical micelle concentration on mineralization of [14C]-glucose and [14C]-fluoranthene was measured in shaker cultures. Tween 80 had no toxic effect on any of the tested strains. The surfactant
inhibited fluoranthene mineralization by the hydrophobic Mycobacterium spp. slightly, but more than doubled that by the two less hydrophobic Sphingomonas strains. Triton X-100 inhibited fluoranthene mineralization by all strains, yet this was more pronounced for the Sphingomonas spp. Both surfactants caused cell wall permeabilization, as shown by transient colouring of surfactant-containing media.
Inhibition of glucose mineralization, indicating non-specific toxic effects of Triton X-100, was observed only for the Sphingomonas strains and the toxicity was caused by micelle-to-cell interactions. These strains, however, appeared to recover from initial
Triton X-100 toxicity within 50–500 h of exposure. The ratio of surfactant concentration to initial cell density was found
to determine critically the bacterial response to surfactants. For both Sphingomonas and Mycobacterium strains, this work indicates that fluoranthene solubilized in surfactant micelles is only partially available for mineralization
by the bacteria tested. However, our results suggest that optimal conditions for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon mineralization
can be developed by selection of the proper surfactant, bacterial strains, cell density and incubation conditions.
