Two hundred and eighty‐five isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae were randomly collected from 22 rice‐growing provinces in China. Ninety‐one representative isolates were chosen to assess the differential characteristics of 24 near‐isogenic rice lines containing a single resistance gene or two to four genes. Most isolates were avirulent on pyramided lines, except IRBB51, and hence, the pyramided lines cannot be used as differentials for the virulence analysis of X. oryzae pv. oryzae in China. The 13 rice lines with a single gene were used further to establish a system of races classification of X. oryzae pv. oryzae in China. IR24 and IRBB10 were susceptible to the isolates with several exceptions, whereas IRBB5, IRBB7 and IRBB21 were resistant. Based on the interactions between the isolates of X. oryzae pv. oryzae and the 13 near‐isogenic rice lines, six single‐gene rice cultivars (IRBB5, IRBB13, IRBB3, IRBB14, IRBB2 and IR24) were chosen as differentials, and the 285 tested isolates were classified into nine races. The reaction patterns of the nine races in order were: RRRRRR, RRRRRS, RRRRSS, RRRSSS, RRSSSS, RSRRRS, RSSRRS, RSSSSS and SSSSSS. The race frequencies were 10.18%, 10.53%, 4.91%, 10.18%, 24.21%, 5.96%, 11.23%, 22.46% and 0.35% respectively. The virulence of representative strains of eight Philippine races on 13 rice lines with a single gene was determined and compared with the Chinese races. The frequency distributions of X. oryzae pv. oryzae races were primarily described for the different regions in China. 相似文献

To facilitate resistance gene characterization in the present study, the pathogenicities of newly collected blast isolates from rice fields in the Philippines were characterized using international blast differential varieties consisting of 31 monogenic lines that target 24 resistance genes. To classify and designate the blast isolates, we used a new international blast designation system, which has been proposed as a suitable naming system for comparing blast races among different studies. A total of 23 rice blast isolates collected from the Philippines were classified into 16 pathotypes, which showed reaction patterns different from those seen in the standard isolates. Among the blast pathotypes, 11 had differentiating ability for four Pik alleles (Pik, Pik‐m, Pik‐h, and Pik‐p) and Pi1, whereas the standard blast isolates from the Philippines were not able to differentiate these genes. In addition, several blast isolates were avirulent to IRBLt‐K59, IRBL19‐A, and Lijiangxintuanheigu, although the standard differential blast isolates were virulent to these lines. Moreover, two blast isolates were virulent to a monogenic line, IRBL9‐W, which harbours Pi9 and was resistant to all standard differential blast isolates. By using the isolates avirulent to IRBL19‐A, Pi19(t) was successfully mapped in the centromeric region on chromosome 12 with simple sequence repeat markers RM27937 and RM1337. These markers are useful for marker‐assisted Pi19(t) introgression worldwide. 相似文献

Rice blast disease is one of the most devastating diseases of rice
(Oryza sativa L.) caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae (M. oryzae), and
neck blast is the most destructive phase of this illness. The underlying molecular
mechanisms of rice blast resistance are not well known. Thus, we collected 150
rice varieties from different ecotypes in China and assessed the rice blast
resistances under the natural conditions that favoured disease development in
Jining, Shandong Province, China in 2017. Results showed that 92 (61.3%) and
58 (38.7%) rice varieties were resistant and susceptible to M. oryzae,
respectively. Among the 150 rice varieties screened for the presence of 13 major
blast resistance (R) genes against M. oryzae by using functional markers, 147
contained one to eight R genes. The relationship between R genes and disease
response was discussed by analysing the phenotype and genotype of functional
markers. The results showed that the rice blast resistance gene Pita was
significantly correlated with rice blast resistance. Our results provided a basis for
the further understanding of the distribution of 13 major R genes of rice blast in
the germplasm resources of the tested rice varieties, and were meaningful for rice
disease resistance breeding. 相似文献

The use of broad-spectrum R genes is an effective way to achieve durable resistance against rice blast (Magnaporthe oryzae Couch, anamorph: Pyricularia oryzae Cavara) in rice (Oryza sativa L.). We previously surveyed the diversity of blast resistance in 948 rice varieties and found a Myanmar rice landrace, Haoru (International Rice Research Institute genebank acc. no. IRGC33090), with broad-spectrum resistance against the standard differential blast isolates. Here, we examined the genetic basis of Haoru’s broad-spectrum resistance by using the standard blast differential system consisting of the standard isolates and differential varieties. For genetic analysis, we used a BC1F1 population and BC1F2 lines derived from crosses of Haoru with a susceptible variety, US-2. Co-segregation analysis of the reaction pattern in the BC1F1 population against the 20 standard isolates suggested that Haoru harbors three R genes. By using bulk-segregant and linkage analysis, we mapped two of the three R genes on chromosomes 12 and 6, and designated them as Pi58(t) and Pi59(t), respectively. Pi58(t) and Pi59(t) were differentiated from other reported R genes using the standard differential system. The estimated resistance spectrum of Pi58(t) corresponded with that of Haoru, suggesting that Pi58(t) is primarily responsible for Haoru’s broad-spectrum resistance. In addition, Pi59(t) and the third gene were also proven to be new and useful genetic resources for studying and improving blast resistance in rice. 相似文献

Evaluation of Rice Cultivars under Greenhouse Conditions for Adult-Plant Resistance to Pyricularia oryzae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Six rice cultivars showing various types of resistance or susceptibility to Pyricularia oryzae in the field were compared under controlled environmental conditions. The resistance of the cultivars with adult-plant resistance was race-specificat early growth stage. On all cultivars tested, blast infection became increasingly reduced on either leaves of adult plants or older leaves, as observed in rice plants of different leaf stages infected with different individual races. Their increase inhost resistance was marked by an apparent transition in infection type and reduced blast severity depending on leaf age and developmental stage of plants. The ranking of disease severity of the adult-plantresistant cultivars to different races was constant during plant development, whereas that of the susceptible cultivars was differential. It is suggested that different degrees of resistance in rice cultivars may exist in seedlings and be consistently maintained during plant development, probably becoming more distinct as rice plants mature. 相似文献

Blast disease caused by the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae is the most severe diseases of rice. Using classical plant breeding techniques, breeders have developed a number of blast resistant cultivars adapted to different rice growing regions worldwide. However, the rice industry remains threatened by blast disease due to the instability of blast fungus. Recent advances in rice genomics provide additional tools for plant breeders to improve rice production systems that would be environmentally friendly. This article outlines the application of conventional breeding, tissue culture and DNA-based markers that are used for accelerating the development of blast resistant rice cultivars. The best way for controlling the disease is to incorporate both qualitative and quantitative genes in resistant variety. Through conventional and molecular breeding many blast-resistant varieties have been developed. Conventional breeding for disease resistance is tedious, time consuming and mostly dependent on environment as compare to molecular breeding particularly marker assisted selection, which is easier, highly efficient and precise. For effective management of blast disease, breeding work should be focused on utilizing the broad spectrum of resistance genes and pyramiding genes and quantitative trait loci. Marker assisted selection provides potential solution to some of the problems that conventional breeding cannot resolve. In recent years, blast resistant genes have introgressed into Luhui 17, G46B, Zhenshan 97B, Jin 23B, CO39, IR50, Pusa1602 and Pusa1603 lines through marker assisted selection. Introduction of exotic genes for resistance induced the occurrence of new races of blast fungus, therefore breeding work should be concentrated in local resistance genes. This review focuses on the conventional breeding to the latest molecular progress in blast disease resistance in rice. This update information will be helpful guidance for rice breeders to develop durable blast resistant rice variety through marker assisted selection. 相似文献

Sequence variation of avirulence gene AVR-Pita1 in rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The interaction between rice, Oryza sativa, and rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, is triggered by an interaction between the protein products of the host resistant gene, and the pathogen avirulence gene. This interaction follows the ‘gene-for-gene' concept. The resistant gene has effectively protected rice plants from rice blast infection. However, the resistant genes usually break down several years after the release of the resistant rice varieties because the fungus has evolved to new races. The objective of this study is to investigate the nucleotide sequence variation of the AVR-Pita1 gene that influences the adaption of rice blast fungus to overcome the resistant gene, Pi-ta. Thirty rice blast fungus isolates were collected in 2005 and 2010 from infected rice plants in northern and northeastern Thailand. The nucleotide sequences of AVR-Pita1 were amplified and analyzed. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted using the MEGA 5.0 program. The results showed a high level of nucleotide sequence polymorphisms and the positive genetic selection pressure in Thai rice blast isolates. The details of sequence variation analysis were described in this article. The information from this study can be used for rice blast resistant breeding program in the future. 相似文献

Rice blast caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae is one of the most devastating diseases of rice in nearly all rice growing areas of the world including Malaysia. To develop
cultivars with resistance against different races of M. oryzae, availability of molecular markers along with marker-assisted selection strategies are essential. In this study, 11 polymorphic
simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers with good fit of 1:2:1 ratio for single gene model in F2 population derived from the cross of Pongsu seribu 2 (Resistant) and Mahsuri (Susceptible) rice cultivars were analysed in
296 F3 families derived from individual F2 plants to investigate association with Pi gene conferring resistance to M. oryzae pathotype. Parents and progeny were grouped into two phenotypic classes based on their blast reactions. Chi-square test for
the segregation of resistance and susceptibility in F3 generation fitted a ratio of approximately 3:1. Association of SSR markers with phenotypic trait in F3 families was identified by statistical analysis. Four SSR markers (RM413, RM5961, RM1233 and RM8225) were significantly associated
with blast resistance to pathotype 7.2 of M. oryzae in rice (p ≤ 0.01). These four markers accounted for about 20% of total phenotypic variation. So, these markers were confirmed as suitable
markers for use in marker-assisted selection and confirmation of blast resistance genes to develop rice cultivars with durable
blast resistance in Malaysian rice breeding programmes. 相似文献

Sensitivity to azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl of 80 single‐spore isolates of Magnaporthe oryzae was determined. The EC50 values for azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl in inhibiting mycelial growth of the 80 M. oryzae isolates were 0.006–0.056 and 0.024–0.287 µg mL?1, respectively. The EC50 values for azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl in inhibiting conidial germination of the M. oryzae populations were 0.004–0.051 and 0.012–0.105 µg mL?1, respectively. There was significant difference in sensitivity to azoxystrobin or kresoxim‐methyl between the tested isolates representing differential sensitivity to carbendazim (MBC) and kitazin P (IBP); however, there was no correlation between this difference in sensitivity to azoxystrobin or kresoxim‐methyl and sensitivity to MBC or IBP, indicating that there was no cross‐resistance between azoxystrobin or kresoxim‐methyl and MBC or IBP. In the protective and curative experiments, kresoxim‐methyl exhibited higher protective and curative activity than azoxystrobin when applied at 150 and 250 µg mL?1 accordingly, while azoxystrobin exhibited stronger inhibitory activity against M. oryzae isolates than that of kresoxim‐methyl in the in vitro test. The results of field experiments also suggested that both azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl at 187.5 g.a.i. ha?1 gave over 73% control efficacy in both sites, exhibiting excellent activity against rice blast. Taken together, azoxystrobin and kresoxim‐methyl could be a good substitute for MBC or IBP for controlling rice blast in China, but should be carefully used as they were both at‐risk. 相似文献

Barley is compatible with the rice blast pathogen (Pyricularia oryzae Cav.). Fiftyfour barley cultivars of diverse geographic origin and pedigree were inoculated with three isolates of the rice
blast pathogen. All barley genotypes showed blast disease symptoms when inoculated at the seedling stage with each of the
three isolates. However, one genotype showed quantitative resistance to all three isolates and three genotypes showed quantitative
resistance to one or two of the isolates. By inoculating a set of doubled-haploid lines derived from the cross ’Harrington’
(susceptible) and ’TR306’ (resistant) with isolate Ken 54–20, we mapped quantitative trait loci (QTLs) determining seedling
stage blast resistance. At all QTLs, TR306 contributed the resistance alleles. The four QTLs, when considered jointly, explained
43.6% of the phenotypic variation in blast symptom expression. A comparison of the blast resistance QTLs with other disease
resistance QTLs reported in this population revealed a region on chromosome 4 (4H) with multiple disease resistance loci.
It will be useful to capitalize on the syntenic relationship of rice and barley and to integrate information on species-specific
resistance genes with information on the reaction of the two species to the same pathogen.

Rice blast is a serious disease caused by the filamentous ascomycetous fungus Magnaporthe oryzae. Incorporating disease resistance genes in rice varieties and characterizing the distribution of M. oryzae isolates form the foundation for enhancing rice blast resistance. In this study, the blast resistance gene Pish was observed to be differentially distributed in the genomes of rice sub-species. Specifically, Pish was present in 80.5% of Geng varieties, but in only 2.3% of Xian varieties. Moreover, Pish conferred resistance against only 23.5% of the M. oryzae isolates from the Geng-planting regions, but against up to 63.2% of the isolates from the Xian-planting regions. Thus, Pish may be an elite resistance gene for improving rice blast resistance in Xian varieties. Therefore, near-isogenic lines (NILs) with Pish and the polygene pyramid lines (PPLs) PPLPish/Pi1, PPLPish/Pi54, and PPLPish/Pi33 in the Xian background Yangdao 6 were generated using a molecular marker-assisted selection method. The results suggested that (1) Pish significantly improved rice blast resistance in Xian varieties, which exhibited considerably improved seedling and panicle blast resistance after Pish was introduced; (2) PPLs with Pish were more effective than the NILs with Pish regarding seedling and panicle blast resistance; (3) the PPL seedling and panicle blast resistance was improved by the complementary and overlapping effects of different resistance genes; and (4) the stability of NIL and PPL resistance varied under different environmental conditions, with only PPLPish/Pi54 exhibiting highly stable resistance in three natural disease nurseries (Jianyang, Jinggangshan, and Huangshan). This study provides new blast resistance germplasm resources and describes a novel molecular strategy for enhancing rice blast resistance. 相似文献

Determination of Physiological Races and Evaluation of Sunflower for Resistance to Puccinia helianthi Schw 下载免费PDF全文
Sunflower rust, caused by Puccinia helianthi Schw., is a widespread disease of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) in China. To study physiological races, sunflower field surveys were undertaken in major sunflower growing areas of China in 2010. Forty‐four rust‐infected sunflower leaf samples were collected from 25 geographical locations. Freshly produced spores were used to study physiological race differentiation on a set of nine differentials. Race 300 was the most prevalent race observed over all locations with a 59% frequency followed by races 735, 310, 500, 724 and 737. To evaluate hybrids and varieties for resistance screening, spores of race 300 were used to inoculate 65 hybrids, and five open‐pollinated varieties selected from breeding programmes and from the seed market. None of the confection hybrids and open‐pollinated varieties was immune to race 300. Conversely, among oilseed hybrids, 3% of them showed immunity, 12% highly resistant, 59% resistant and 26% showed susceptible reactions. Open‐pollinated varieties were the most susceptible to race 300 followed by confection and oilseed sunflower hybrids. Results from this study are projected to assist breeders in selection of hybrids and varieties against prevalent race as our results showed a diversity of resistance levels to race 300. 相似文献

Modulation of plant immune system by extrinsic/intrinsic factors and host‐specific determinants fine‐tunes cellular components involving multiple organelles, particularly nucleus to mount resistance against pathogen attack. Rice blast, caused by hemibiotrophic fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, is one of the most devastating diseases that adversely affect rice productivity. However, the role of nuclear proteins and their regulation in response to M. oryzae remains unknown. Here, the nucleus‐associated immune pathways in blast‐resistant rice genotype are elucidated. Temporal analysis of nuclear proteome is carried out using 2‐DE coupled MS/MS analysis. A total of 140 immune responsive proteins are identified associated with nuclear reorganization, cell division, energy production/deprivation, signaling, and gene regulation. The proteome data are interrogated using correlation network analysis that identified significant functional modules pointing toward immune‐related coinciding processes through a common mechanism of remodeling and homeostasis. Novel clues regarding blast resistance include nucleus‐associated redox homeostasis and glycolytic enzyme–mediated chromatin organization which manipulates cell division and immunity. Taken together, the study herein provides evidence that the coordination of nuclear function and reprogramming of host translational machinery regulate resistance mechanism against blast disease. 相似文献

Rice blast, caused by the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae (M. oryzae), is one of the most destructive and widespread plant diseases in the world. Utilization of resistance genes in rice breeding is considered to be an effective and economical method to control this disease. To identify new sources of blast resistance, a set of 1160 introgression lines (ILs) containing chromosome segments of Chaling common wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.) in the genetic background of an elite indica rice variety 93-11 were developed and phenotyped in the blast nursery. Thirty-three ILs displaying stable blast resistance in three consecutive years were obtained. Among them, one line, IL1043, was subsequently found to be resistant to all of the 28 M. oryzae isolates from different regions through artificial inoculation in greenhouse. By combining bulk segregant analysis coupled with next-generation sequencing (BSA-seq) and recessive class analysis (RCA), a major blast resistance gene in IL1043, designated Picl(t), was mapped on rice chromosome 6 flanked by the markers RM527 and Indel6 with an interval of approximately 925 kb, which covers the Pi2/9 locus. These results will facilitate fine mapping and cloning of Picl(t), and the linked markers will further provide a useful tool for rice blast resistance breeding. 相似文献

The wheat durable,multipathogen resistance gene Lr34 confers partial blast resistance in rice 下载免费PDF全文

The wheat gene Lr34 confers durable and partial field resistance against the obligate biotrophic, pathogenic rust fungi and powdery mildew in adult wheat plants. The resistant Lr34 allele evolved after wheat domestication through two gain‐of‐function mutations in an ATP‐binding cassette transporter gene. An Lr34‐like fungal disease resistance with a similar broad‐spectrum specificity and durability has not been described in other cereals. Here, we transformed the resistant Lr34 allele into the japonica rice cultivar Nipponbare. Transgenic rice plants expressing Lr34 showed increased resistance against multiple isolates of the hemibiotrophic pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae, the causal agent of rice blast disease. Host cell invasion during the biotrophic growth phase of rice blast was delayed in Lr34‐expressing rice plants, resulting in smaller necrotic lesions on leaves. Lines with Lr34 also developed a typical, senescence‐based leaf tip necrosis (LTN) phenotype. Development of LTN during early seedling growth had a negative impact on formation of axillary shoots and spikelets in some transgenic lines. One transgenic line developed LTN only at adult plant stage which was correlated with lower Lr34 expression levels at seedling stage. This line showed normal tiller formation and more importantly, disease resistance in this particular line was not compromised. Interestingly, Lr34 in rice is effective against a hemibiotrophic pathogen with a lifestyle and infection strategy that is different from obligate biotrophic rusts and mildew fungi. Lr34 might therefore be used as a source in rice breeding to improve broad‐spectrum disease resistance against the most devastating fungal disease of rice. 相似文献

The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae is a serious pathogen that jeopardises the world’s most important food-security crop. Ten common Malaysian rice varieties were examined for their morphological, physiological and genomic responses to this rice blast pathogen. qPCR quantification was used to assess the growth of the pathogen population in resistant and susceptible rice varieties. The chlorophyll content and photosynthesis were also measured to further understand the disruptive effects that M. oryzae has on infected plants of these varieties. Real-time PCR was used to explore the differential expression of eight blast resistance genes among the ten local varieties. Blast disease has destructive effects on the growth of rice, and the findings of our study provide evidence that the Pikh, Pi9, Pi21, and Osw45 genes are involved in defence responses in the leaves of Malaysian rice at 31 h after inoculation with M. oryzae pathotype P7.2. Both the chlorophyll content and photosynthesis were reduced, but the levels of Pikh gene expression remained constant in susceptible varieties, with a developed pathogen population and mild or severe symptoms. The Pi9, Pi21, and Osw45 genes, however, were simultaneously upregulated in infected rice plants. Therefore, the presence of the Pikh, Pi9, Pi21, and Osw45 genes in the germplasm is useful for improving the resistance of rice varieties. 相似文献
