多重PCR法区分枣园两种菱纹叶蝉及检测其体内枣疯病植原体

【目的】目前发现,北京枣园中的凹缘菱纹叶蝉Hishimonus sellatus(Uhler)和片突菱纹叶蝉Hishimonus lamellatus Cai混同发生。已知凹缘菱纹叶蝉可以传播枣疯病,而片突菱纹叶蝉是否携带枣疯病植原体尚待证明。正确鉴别区分枣园中菱纹叶蝉的种类并测定其体内感染枣疯病植原体情况有助于阐明田间枣疯病的流行规律,从而提出有效的预防枣疯病及其媒介昆虫措施显得十分重要。传统形态学鉴定两种菱纹叶蝉种类的方法局限于雄性成虫外生殖器,本研究目的在于建立一种快速的分子生物学方法,在区分枣园中两种枣菱纹叶蝉的同时,可检测虫体内的枣疯病植原体。【方法】以凹缘菱纹叶蝉和片突菱纹叶蝉的COI基因以及枣疯病植原体的16S r DNA为扩增目标,分别设计引物,建立一种包含3对引物的多重PCR体系。测试该多重PCR体系对叶蝉总DNA的灵敏度、准确性,以及当两种叶蝉DNA同时存在时的辨别能力和对枣疯病植原体16S r DNA的灵敏度。【结果】该多重PCR可以准确区分凹缘菱纹叶蝉和片突菱纹叶蝉,并对虫体内枣疯病植原体实现检测,其对昆虫总DNA的灵敏度达到0.012 ng,对枣疯病植原体16S r DNA模板的灵敏度达到900拷贝。【结论】该方法极大方便了对枣菱纹叶蝉的田间种群发生动态及虫体中枣疯病植原体感染的监测。

Comparative Molecular Analyses of Phytoplasmas infecting Sophora japonica cv. golden and Robinia pseudoacacia

Phytoplasmas were detected in Sophora japonica cv. golden and Robinia pseudoacacia with diseased branches of witches'‐broom collected in Haidian district, Beijing, China. Phytoplasma cells were observed in phloem sieve elements of symptomatic S. japonica cv. golden by transmission electron microscopy. The presence of phytoplasmas was further confirmed by sequence determination of partial gene sequences of 16S rDNA, rp (ribosomal protein) and secY.

Comparative analyses indicated that the phytoplasma of RPWB was closer to the JWB and that R. pseudoacacia might serve as an alternative host plant of JWB phytoplasma.

The phytoplasma associated with purple woodnettle witches'‐broom disease in Taiwan represents a new subgroup of the aster yellows phytoplasma group

In October 2013, a new disease affecting purple woodnettle, Oreocnide pedunculata, plants was found in Miaoli County, Taiwan. Diseased plants exhibited leaf yellowing and witches'‐broom symptoms. Molecular diagnostic tools and electron microscopic cell observation were used to investigate the possible cause of the disease with a specific focus on phytoplasmas. The result of polymerase chain reaction with universal primer pairs indicated that phytoplasmas were strongly associated with the symptomatic purple woodnettles. The virtual restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) patterns and phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA and ribosomal protein, rplV‐rpsC region revealed that purple woodnettle witches'‐broom phytoplasma (PWWB) belongs to a new subgroup of 16SrI and rpI group and was designated as 16SrI‐AH and rpI‐Q, respectively, herein. RFLP analysis based on tuf gene region revealed that the PWWB belongs to tufI‐B, but phylogenetic analysis suggested that PWWB should be delineated to a new subgroup under the tufI group. Taken together, our analyses based on 16S rRNA and rplV‐rpsC region gave a finer differentiation while classifying the subgroup of aster yellows group phytoplasmas. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a Candidatus Phytoplasma asteris‐related strain in 16SrI‐AH, rpI‐Q and tufI‐B subgroup affecting purple woodnettle, and of an official documentation of purple woodnettle as being a new host of phytoplasmas.     

First Report of Aster Yellows Phytoplasma (16SrI‐B) Associated with Witches' Broom Disease of Melia azedarach var. japonica in Korea

Melia azedarach var. japonica trees with leaf yellowing, small leaves and witches' broom were observed for the first time in Korea. A phytoplasma from the symptomatic leaves was identified based on the 16Sr DNA sequence as a member of aster yellows group, ribosomal subgroup 16SrI‐B. Sequence analyses of more variable regions such as 16S–23S intergenic spacer region, secY gene, ribosomal protein (rp) operon and tuf gene showed 99.5?100% nucleotide identity to several GenBank sequences of group 16SrI phytoplasmas. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed that the Melia azedarach witches' broom phytoplasma belongs to aster yellows group.     

Morphological Changes of Paulownia Seedlings Infected Phytoplasmas Reveal the Genes Associated with Witches' Broom through AFLP and MSAP

Paulownia witches'' broom (PaWB) caused by phytoplasma might result in devastating damage to the growth and wood production of Paulownia. To study the effect of phytoplasma on DNA sequence and to discover the genes related to PaWB occurrence, DNA polymorphisms and DNA methylation levels and patterns in PaWB seedlings, the ones treated with various concentration of methyl methane sulfonate (MMS) and healthy seedlings were investigated with amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and methylation-sensitive amplification polymorphism (MSAP). Our results indicated that PaWB seedlings recovered a normal morphology, similar to healthy seedlings, after treatment with more than 20 mg·L⁻¹ MMS; Phytoplasma infection did not change the Paulownia genomic DNA sequence at AFLP level, but changed the global DNA methylation levels and patterns; Genes related to PaWB were discovered through MSAP and validated using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). These results implied that changes of DNA methylation levels and patterns were closely related to the morphological changes of seedlings infected with phytoplasmas.     

Differentiation and Classification of Phytoplasmas Associated with Almond and GF‐677 Witches'‐Broom Diseases using rRNA and rp Genes

Stone fruits are affected by several diseases associated with plant pathogenic phytoplasmas. Previous studies have been shown that phytoplasma agents of almond and GF‐677 witches'‐broom (AlmWB and GWB, respectively) diseases belong to pigeon pea witches'‐broom (16SrIX) phytoplasma group. In this study, partial biological and molecular characterization was used to compare and classify phytoplasma agents of Khafr AlmWB (KAlmWB) and Estahban GWB (EGWB) diseases. Production of different symptoms in periwinkle indicated that agents of KAlmWB and EGWB are differentiable. Expected fragments were amplified from diseased almond and GF‐677 trees in direct PCR using phytoplasma universal primer pairs P1/P7 and rpF1/rpR1 and nested PCR using P1/P7 followed by R16F2n/ R16R2 primer pair. 16S‐rDNA Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) as well as phylogenetic analysis of rplV‐rpsC and 16S–23S rRNA spacer region sequences classified KAlmWB and EGWB phytoplasmas within 16SrIX‐C (rpIX‐C) and 16SrIX‐B (rpIX‐B) subgroups, respectively.
