香蕉上的镰孢菌种类及其系统发育关系(英文)

镰孢菌属真菌是香蕉上的重要病原菌,主要引起香蕉枯萎病以及香蕉冠腐病,在我国已明确引起香蕉枯萎病的病原为尖孢镰孢古巴专化型 Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense(FOC)1号和4号生理小种,但是引起香蕉冠腐病的镰孢菌种类还未明确。为了解香蕉上镰孢菌在种间及种内水平上的多样性,2008–2011 年间作者从华南地区不同的水果市场及香蕉果园采集香蕉样品90份,分离得到143株镰孢菌。通过形态学观察及基于 EF-1α基因的系统进化分析鉴定出10种镰孢菌,即F. oxysporum、F. solani、F. camptoceras、F. pallidoroseum、F. stiloides、F. chlamydosporum、F.verticillioides、F. proliferatum、F. concentricum、F. sacchari,以及藤仓赤霉复合种(Gibberella fujikuroi species complex,GFC)中 3 个未定名的类群。轮纹镰孢 F. concentricum 及甘蔗镰孢 F.sacchari 是香蕉果实中最常见种,前菌为我国首次报道,后菌是首次报道与香蕉有关。对从香蕉上分离的藤仓赤霉复合种(GFC)及尖孢镰孢复合种(FOSC)的EF-1α序列进行了系统发育分析,其GFC中的27个菌株组成的单系群可分为7个不同的亚群,分别为 F.verticillioides、F. proliferatum、F. concentricum、F. sacchari 以及3个没有描述过的菌系 Fusarium sp. 1、Fusarium sp.2和 Fusarium sp.3;FOSC中的50个菌株形成2大分枝共12个谱系,分离自我国华南地区的21株尖孢镰孢形成7个谱系,其中 13株已知的香蕉枯萎病病原菌分布在3个谱系中,我国大陆的香蕉枯萎病病原菌菌株与来源于台湾地区及东南亚的菌株亲缘关系较近,FOC1号生理小种的遗传分化大于4号生理小种,FOC 1号生理小种与分离自香蕉果实上的尖孢镰孢菌的亲缘关系比与FOC 4号生理小种的亲缘关系更近。研究结果表明,我国香蕉上存在着丰富的镰孢菌种类,而且种内遗传多样性丰富。     

长期连作对大豆根际土壤镰孢菌种群的影响

利用中国科学院海伦农业生态试验站大豆连作长期定位试验区,进行了大豆根际土壤镰孢菌分离鉴定及大豆根腐病致病力检测,结合核酸序列和限制性片段长度多态性(RFLP)的系统发育分析,研究了长期连作(20年)较短期连作(3年)对大豆根际土壤镰孢菌种群密度和结构、致病力及遗传多样性的影响.结果表明： 3年连作大豆根际土壤镰孢菌种群密度为6.0×10⁴ CFU·g^-1,且以强致病力的尖镰孢菌、禾谷镰孢菌、轮枝镰孢菌及中等致病力的腐皮镰孢菌为优势种;连作20年大豆根际土壤镰孢菌种群密度和优势菌的优势度均显著低于3年连作,其中尖镰孢菌、禾谷镰孢菌和腐皮镰孢菌的种群密度仅为3年连作的36%、32%和22%,没有分离到致病力最高的轮枝镰孢菌,而种群多样性和均匀度显著高于3年连作;仅分离自20年连作土壤的三线镰孢菌、砖红镰孢菌及燕麦镰孢菌均为非致病菌种,且与强致病力镰孢菌种在基于转录间隔区(ITS)和转录延长因子(EF-1α)序列的聚类分析中显示了系统进化亲缘关系的差异性.因此,大豆20年连作会导致根际土壤镰孢菌种群生长受抑制、使其种群结构和遗传多样性发生改变,同时降低大豆根腐病菌种群致病力.     

河北省苹果园根际土壤中疑似致病镰孢菌种类

为了解引起河北省苹果再植病害的病原菌,在河北省10个地区苹果园中采集土壤样品,在实验室进行病原菌的诱集分离培养,根据形态和分子特征对主要病原菌进行种类鉴定。结果表明,在分离得到的293株真菌中,有116株镰孢菌,为分离频率最高的真菌。在形态学鉴定的基础上,对供试镰孢菌进行了分子鉴定。在基于核糖体基因内转录间隔区（rDNA-ITS）序列与翻译延长因子1α（EF-1α）序列片段构建的系统发育树中,代表菌株分别与GenBank登记的所属菌株聚于同一群。研究结果明确了河北省苹果再植病害的疑似致病镰孢菌,包括：尖孢镰孢Fusarium oxysporum、木贼镰孢F. equiseti、锐顶镰孢F. acuminatum、层出镰孢F. proliferatum和茄腐镰孢F. solani。     

中国的膨孢组镰孢菌(英文)

膨孢组镰孢菌Fusarium在自然界中广泛分布。该组包括4个种:木贼镰孢菌F.equiseti,藨草镰孢菌F.scirpi,长脚镰孢菌F.longipes和紧致镰孢菌F.compactum。这4个种均产生腹背不平行弯曲的大孢子。分离获得并描述了其中的3个种。木贼镰孢菌F.equiseti是镰孢菌中最常见的种之一,它产生典型的腹背不平行弯曲的大孢子,大孢子的顶细胞和足跟状基细胞明显伸长,菌落因缺乏红色素而呈黄褐色。藨草镰孢菌F.scirpi是比较少见的种类,它的典型特征是在典型的十字形产孢细胞上产生大量的小型分生孢子。由于它在PDA培养基上容易发生小孢子缺乏型的变异,因此,常常被错误地鉴定为木贼镰孢菌F.equiseti。长脚镰孢菌F.longipes的大孢子最容易与其他种的大孢子区分,它的顶细胞和基细胞均极度延长。当长脚镰孢菌F.longipes菌落因为变异而失去产生红色素的能力时,也容易与木贼镰孢菌F.equiseti混淆。基于该组大孢子的典型特征,作者将锐顶镰孢菌F.acuminatum排除在该组之外。     

中国土壤中小镰孢属的两个新种

报道分离自土壤中的小镰孢属Fusariella二新种:棘柄小镰孢Fusariellaechinulata和中华小镰孢Fusariellasinensis。棘柄小镰孢与坎斯小镰孢F.kansensis、间型小镰孢F.intermedia和侧弯小镰孢F.obstipa形态近似,它们的如下区分:新种的分生孢子明显要比F.intermedia的宽,比F.kansensis的小,其产孢瓶体具棘刺与F.obstipa光滑的产孢瓶体可以区分。中华小镰孢与F.obstipa近似,但其产孢瓶体色泽较暗且明显粗糙,而后者的产孢瓶体无色,光滑,另外,新种的分生孢子较后者的要小,二者容易区分。二新种的模式标本(干制培养物)保存在山东农业大学植物病理学标本室(HSAUP)。

采用AGI-30生物采样器收集鸡舍空气样本,同时采集鸡舍中饲料、积尘、土壤和饮用水在内的环境基质样品。采用形态学方法对分离获得的镰孢菌菌株进行鉴定,利用tri5-PCR技术对镰孢菌菌株中产单端孢霉烯族毒素的菌株进行检测,目的是探明鸡舍环境中镰孢菌种类的分布特征和产毒菌株。结果表明,从采集的50份样品中分离获得139个镰孢菌菌株,鸡舍空气和基质中的优势菌株均为Fusarium verticillioides;在各基质中,土壤中镰孢菌总浓度最高,为4×102–1.35×104CFU/g,其次为饲料和饮用水;采用tri5-PCR技术筛选到42株tri5阳性镰孢菌菌株,其中以F. graminearum所占比例最高。研究明确鸡舍中镰孢菌种类及其分布特征对鸡只疾病控制及保障人类和动物的健康具有重要意义。     

Analysis of the Fusarium graminearum species complex from wheat, barley and maize in South Africa provides evidence of species-specific differences in host preference

Species identity and trichothecene toxin potential of 560 members of the Fusarium graminearum species complex (FGSC) collected from diseased wheat, barley and maize in South Africa was determined using a microsphere-based multilocus genotyping assay. Although three trichothecene types (3-ADON, 15-ADON and NIV) were represented among these isolates, strains with the 15-ADON type predominated on all three hosts. A significant difference, however, was identified in the composition of FGSC pathogens associated with Gibberella ear rot (GER) of maize as compared to Fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat or barley (P<0.001). F. graminearum accounted for more than 85% of the FGSC isolates associated with FHB of wheat and barley (N=425), and was also the dominant species among isolates from maize roots (N=35). However, with the exception of a single isolate identified as an interspecific hybrid between Fusariumboothii and F. graminearum, GER of maize (N=100) was exclusively associated with F. boothii. The predominance of F. graminearum among FHB isolates, and the near exclusivity of F. boothii among GER isolates, was observed across all cultivars, collection dates, and provinces sampled. Because these results suggest a difference in host preference among species of the FGSC, we hypothesize that F. graminearum may be less well adapted to infect maize ears than other members of the FGSC.     

Nivalenol and 15‐acetyldeoxynivalenol Chemotypes of Fusarium graminearum Clade Species are Prevalent on Maize throughout China

Fusarium graminearum clade species are among the main causative agents of Gibberella ear rot (GER) in maize and responsible for the various trichothecene mycotoxins accumulated in contaminated maize grains. In this study, a total of 620 isolates from diseased maize ears collected from 59 districts in 19 provinces throughout China, previously identified morphologically as Fusarium graminearum clade, was genetically characterized at the species level based on SCAR (Sequence Characterized Amplified Region) and for their potential capability of mycotoxin production using the genetic chemotyping assay. The results showed that 359 isolates were F. asiaticum (SCAR 5), which consisted of 97% nivalenol (NIV)‐chemotypes, 0.8% 3‐acetyldeoxynivalenol (3‐ADON)‐producing isolates and 2.2% 15‐acetyldeoxynivalenol (15‐ADON) producers, whereas the remaining 261 isolates were identified as F. graminearum sensu stricto (SCAR 1), all of which produced 15‐ADON mycotoxins. This high proportion of NIV producers present in F. asiaticum is different from the chemotype patterns in F. asiaticum populations isolated from wheat and barley, where DON and its acetylated chemotypes were the predominant mycotoxins. Moreover, the majority of NIV producers (59.1%) and all the 3‐ADON‐producing strains were derived from the warmer regions in southern China, whereas most of the 15‐ADON‐producing strains (78.4%) were isolated from the colder regions in northern China. Our study is the first report of NIV chemotypes of F. asiaticum and 15‐ADON chemotypes of F. graminearum sensu stricto that were associated with the GER of maize in China.     

Genetic diversity and trichothecene chemotypes of the Fusarium graminearum clade isolated from maize in Nepal and identification of a putative new lineage

On smallholder farms in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains in Nepal, fungi of the Fusarium graminearum clade cause Gibberella ear rot of maize and contamination with the 8-ketotrichothecenes nivalenol and deoxynivalenol. Previous DNA marker analyses of the F.?graminearum clade from maize in Nepal found a high level of genetic diversity but were limited in detail or scope. The present study incorporated a collection of 251 field strains from a wide geographic distribution in Nepal and utilized sequencing of the MAT1-1-3 gene of the mating type locus to determine the number and frequency of lineages and species of the F. graminearum clade. The frequency of nivalenol and deoxynivalenol chemotypes was determined by chemical analysis and by TRI13 deletion-marker analysis. We found that Gibberella ear rot of maize in Nepal is associated with a complex of species of the F. graminearum clade - mainly Fusarium asiaticum and Fusarium meridionale, but also Fusarium boothii and a putative new lineage, which we have designated the 'Nepal lineage'. Fusarium graminearum sensu stricto, which dominates in maize elsewhere in Asia and worldwide, was not detected in Nepal. Although nivalenol production has been associated experimentally with lower virulence in maize ear rot and wheat head blight, this collection of the F. graminearum clade from maize in Nepal is dominated (4:1) by nivalenol producers, suggesting that traits other than crop plant pathogenesis affect population structure in this complex agroecosystem.     

Female fertility and mating type distribution in a Philippine population ofFusarium verticillioides

Fusarium verticillioides is a common causal agent of maize ear rot in the Philippines. Eighty isolates were collected from healthy and infected maize cobs from Laguna province. Fifty isolates crossed with one of the mating type A testers. The ratio of MATA-1:MATA-2 is 27:23, which follows a Mendelian ratio of 1:1. The effective population number, Ne, was determined by mating type and male/hermaphrodite polymorphisms. The effective population number for mating type, Ne mt, is 81% of the count (total population), and that for male/hermaphrodite status, Ne f, is 36-42% of the count (total population). Sexual reproduction in Philippine isolates of F. verticillioides does not occur frequently, compared to F. verticillioides in other regions of the world.     

Characterization of Fusarium species section Liseola by restriction analysis of the IGS region

Fusarium species section Liseola namely F. fujikuroi, F. proliferatum, F. andiyazi, F. verticillioides, and F. sacchari are well-known plant pathogens on rice, sugarcane and maize. In the present study, restriction analysis of the intergenic spacer regions (IGS) was used to characterize the five Fusarium species isolated from rice, sugarcane and maize collected from various locations in Peninsular Malaysia. From the analysis, and based on restriction patterns generated by the six restriction enzymes, Bsu151, BsuRI, EcoRI, Hin6I, HinfI, and MspI, 53 haplotypes were recorded among 74 isolates. HinfI showed the most variable restriction patterns (with 11 patterns), while EcoRI showed only three patterns. Although a high level of variation was observed, it was possible to characterize closely related species and isolates from different species. UPGMA cluster analysis showed that the isolates of Fusarium from the same species were grouped together regardless of the hosts. We conclude that restriction analysis of the IGS regions can be used to characterize Fusarium species section Liseola and to discriminate closely related species as well as to clarify their taxonomic position.     

Fusarium rot in cucumber greenhouses of Jiroft region

The present work was done to identify Fusarium species that cause Fusarium rot in greenhouse cucumber crop in Jiroft region (Kerman, Iran), in 2006–2007. During these years, a vast sampling was done from several greenhouses of Jiroft. The plants with rot symptoms as well as the soil samples of greenhouse were transferred to lab. The isolates of plants and soil samples were detached by direct isolation of the infected tissue and soil suspension methods, respectively. Totally 120 isolates were obtained, which were classified into the following six species according to their morphological and physiological characteristics: Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium solani, Fusarium culmorum, Fusarium monoliforme, Fusarium sambucinum, Fusarium subglutinans. It is the first time that three of these taxons, i.e. F. culmorum, F. monoliforme and F. subglutinan are reported in cucumber of Iran. Pathogenesis studies of the isolates were done by mycelium placement and spore suspension injection methods in sterile soil under greenhouse conditions. Then the disease symptoms were investigated.     

Rhizospheric Enterobacter enhanced maize seedling health and growth

Phyto-beneficial effects of rhizobacteria specifically Enterobacter species were evaluated on maize seedling health and growth. Out of the 19 isolates examined, two were remarkable in their phosphate solubilization efficiency (PSE > 70%), chitinase enzyme activity (CEA > 85%) and antifungal activity with evidence of no or low disease expression in maize seedling. The selected isolates (OSR7 and IGGR11) were identified and 16S rDNA revealed both isolates as Enterobacter species. Re-evaluation of both isolates ascertains that their combined effects are more effective on maize seedling than their individual effects. Their combinations completely suppressed pathogenic activity of Fusarium verticillioides on maize seedling with evidence of no disease symptoms. Other treatments significantly (p < 0.05) expressed varied maize seedling diseases such as leaf curl and stem rot. Apart from treatment T2 (maize + pathogen), other treatments most especially their combinations significantly (p < 0.05) enhanced seedling height, stem girth, leaf area, nitrogen and potassium contents. The phyto-beneficial effects of these Enterobacter species suggest that they could be employed as bio-inoculant for maize seedling health and growth.     

Fusarium Species From Plant Debris Associated With Soils From Maize Production Areas in the Transkei Region of South Africa

Fusarium species were isolated from plant debris in soil samples collected from cultivated maize fields and from undisturbed grasslands in two areas of the Transkei region. A total of 1205 Fusarium isolates were recovered from 27 soil samples. Fifteen Fusarium species were recovered from plant debris from Bizana soils and 13 Fusarium species from plant debris from Centane soils. The two dominant Fusarium species in both areas were F. oxysporum and F. equiseti. Very few isolates of F. moniliforme and F. subglutinans were recovered, but both of these species had significantly higher relative densities in cultivated soils than in undisturbed soils. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Stalk Rot of Maize: Host-pathogen Interaction

Four maize cultivars were each separately inoculated with 10 different isolates of Diplodia zeae, Fusarium moniliforme, F. graminearum and Macrophomina phaseolina. D. zeae consistently caused most stalk rot, followed in decreasing order by M. phaseolina, F. graminearum and F. moniliforme. Significant intraspecific differences in stalk rot were recorded. No significant stalk rot x cultivar interaction occurred. Stalk rot correlated non-significantly with yield loss but significantly with cellulase production in vitro.     

Pathogenicity variation in Fusarium verticillioides populations isolated from maize in northern Italy

One hundred and eighty one strains were selected among Fusarium verticillioides populations isolated from maize samples collected in three fields located in northern Italy. All the isolates were tested for their pathogenicity on maize seeds by assessing the seed germination percentages and the percentage infection indexes concerning seed colonization, radicle decay and coleoptile rot. Fusarium verticillioides strains did not affect seed germination even in presence of high seed colonization, but showed a variable pathogenic behavior according to the maize growth stages. Seedborne F. verticillioides population as well as strains isolated at maturity was effective in seed colonization and in inducing coleoptile rot, not causing however serious radicle decay. Only populations isolated at seedling and pre-silking stages showed high radicle decay ability. These results provide baseline information on F. verticillioides pathogenicity. They constitute an important input for further investigation of F. verticillioides biology in order to define its evolutionary potential.
