我国黄曲霉遗传多样性与产毒特性

黄曲霉(Aspergillus flavus)是一种广泛分布的腐生真菌, 是黄曲霉毒素B (aflatoxin B, AFB)和圆弧偶氮酸(cyclopiazonic acid, CPA)的主要产生菌, 也是动植物的条件致病菌。全球的玉米、花生和棉籽均不同程度地遭到黄曲霉及其毒素的污染。黄曲霉菌株间在形态学、遗传学和产毒特性上变异较大, 且其居群遗传结构也尚不明确。为了揭示黄曲霉居群遗传结构及其产毒素特性的规律, 本研究选取了从我国26省区(包括大小兴安岭)不同环境中分离的黄曲霉88株, 结合模式菌株和国际权威菌株9株, 基于钙调蛋白基因(CaM)和β-微管蛋白基因(benA)进行多基因序列分型(multi-locus sequence typing, MLST), 使用MEGA 6.0和Structure 2.3.4软件进行系统发育学分析和居群结构推导, 并结合菌株的产毒特性(AFB和CPA)进行比较分析。结果显示本研究的97株黄曲霉可分为3个居群, 即黄曲霉居群I、黄曲霉居群II和米曲霉居群, 该97株黄曲霉共有17个序列型(sequence type, ST), 其中我国的88株菌分布于15个序列型。米曲霉居群均不产AFB, 黄曲霉居群I和II的菌株绝大多数都产AFB和CPA, 其产毒特性只具有菌株特异性, 与居群和序列型无关。黄曲霉菌株产毒特性与地理分布或农作物类型间存在一定关系。我国东北玉米产区、西北干旱棉花产区和南方花生产区的黄曲霉居群I和II菌株均产AFB和CPA, 我国青海可可西里和四川阿坝地区的黄曲霉仅产CPA而不产AFB, 不产AFB的米曲霉居群大部分来自我国气候和地理环境多样的华北地区, 该地区也是我国农村传统酿造黄豆酱的地区。

Enumeration and identification of Aspergillus group and Penicillium species in poultry feeds from Argentina

A total of 180 samples of poultry feeds were collected during 1996 and 1997 from different factories in the south of the province of Córdoba-Argentina. They were examined for the occurrence of Penicillium spp. and Aspergillus group species. Likewise, the capacity to produce aflatoxins by the Aspergillus section flavi group was determined. The predominant species of Aspergillus were A. flavus and A. parasiticus. For Penicillium spp., P. brevicompactum, P. purpurogenum and P. oxalicum were identified. Less frequently isolated were A. candidus, A. fumigatus, A. niger, A. orizae, A. parvulus, A. tamarii, A. terreus, and P. expansum, P. funiculosum, P. minioluteum, P. pinophylum, P. restrictum, P. variabile and others. The mean value counts ranged from 1 × 103 to 9.5 × 104 CFU/g for the Aspergillus spp. and from 1.2 × 103 to 2.5 × 105 CFU/g for the Penicillium spp. When cultured on autoclaved rice kernels for 1 week in the dark at 25°C, mycotoxin production by strains of A. flavus was as follows: 21 of the 45 assayed strains (47%) produced aflatoxins. From them, 24% of the isolates produced AFB1 and AFB2 with levels from 181 to 14 545 and 6 to 3640 μg/kg respectively. Only 10 strains produced AFB1 with levels from 10 to 920 μg/kg. Fifty percent of the A. parasiticus strain was toxicogenic; six aflatoxicogenic profiles were identified. Only 10% of the strains produced all of the aflatoxins. These results showed that a potential exists for the production of mycotoxins by the Aspergillus section flavi and the Penicillium spp. They also suggested an association of mycotoxicosis with poultry feeds in Argentina. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Culture supernatants of patient-derived Aspergillus isolates have toxic and lytic activity towards neurons and glial cells

Infection of the central nervous system by the ubiquitous fungi Aspergillus spp. is a life-threatening disease. Therefore we investigated the mechanism of brain damage by fungal infection. To examine whether secretory factors of Aspergillus isolates derived from patients can induce death of different brain cells, culture supernatants of Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus terreus and Aspergillus niger were added to different astrocytes as well as to the neuroblastoma cell line SK-N-SH, and to the microglial cell line CHME. All four fungal species were shown to secrete toxic factors with neurons being most sensitive against these factors. Very low amounts and short incubation times are sufficient to induce irreversible cell damage, indicating that secreted factors might also affect distant brain regions. Further characterization of the toxic factors revealed that A. fumigatus and A. terreus produced small, heat-stable components whereas the toxic activity of A. niger filtrates was triggered by a high molecular mass factor which could be inactivated by heat. The active component of A. flavus had a molecular mass similar to that of A. niger but was heat-stable and had a significantly lower activity. Taken together these results indicate that secretion of different necrotizing factors might contribute to brain lesions in patients with cerebral aspergillosis.     

Mycoflora and ochratoxin-producing strains of Aspergillus section Nigri in wine grapes in Argentina

AIMS: The aims of this work were to evaluate the mycoflora and to identify the species of Aspergillus with the potential to produce ochratoxin A (OA) from different wine grape varieties from Mendoza, Argentina. Likewise, the capacity to produce OA by Aspergillus section Nigri was studied. METHODS AND RESULTS: Fifty samples of wine grapes were obtained from a winery of Mendoza province, Argentina. The surface-disinfection method was used for mycoflora determination using the medium dichloran 18% glycerol agar (DG18). Alternaria, Aspergillus and Penicillium were identified at species level. OA production was tested in 63 strains belonging to section Nigri. Alternaria genus was the most frequent (80% of the samples) followed by Aspergillus (70%). Alternaria alternata was the only specie identified from the Alternaria genus, followed by A. niger var. niger, A. flavus among others. From Penicillium genus, P. crysogenum was the most frequent specie. From 63 strains of Aspergillus section Nigri, 41.3% were OA producers. The levels of produced toxin ranged from 2 to 24.5 ng ml-1 of culture medium. CONCLUSIONS: The presence of ochratoxigenic strains of Nigri section in this substrate suggests that they may be an important source of OA in grapes from tropical and subtropical zones. Therefore, the industry should work further to diminish the growth of these fungi and mycotoxins formation in grapes, with the aim to reduce OA content in wine products. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The wine grape contamination with A. alternata and Aspergillus section Nigri was significant.

Aspergillus Spp. as an important occupational risk factor among susceptible individuals

The prevalence of different species of aspergilli was studied for two consecutive years (from April 1989 to March 1991) in a mechanised bakery, a poultry farm and a large municipal hospital in Delhi, India using an Andersen six stage volumetric sampler. A rich diversity of aspergilli (26 species) were recorded in each environment. The major contributors in each environment were Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. versicolor, A. sydowi, A. fumigatus, A. japonicus. The concentration of aspergilli was higher inside the work place compared to the outside air, with 25% to 45% contribution to the total fungal load. The concentration of A. flavus was higher in the storage section of the bakery and in the shed of the poultry farm, while A. niger was characteristic of the packing section and the hatchery. The hospital, which was naturally ventilated with a continuous mixing of indoor and outdoor air had a significantly high concentration of A. flavus (p < 0.05) inside the ward. Some of the frequently encountered species of Aspergillus are A. janus, A. ochraceous, A. nidulans, A. variecolor, A. luchuensis and A. terreus. Other species of Aspergillus had a very low occurrence, accounting for less than 1% of the total fungal load.     

Inhibition of aflatoxin B production of Aspergillus flavus, isolated from soybean seeds by certain natural plant products

AIMS: The inhibitory effect of cowdung fumes, Captan, leaf powder of Withania somnifera, Hyptis suaveolens, Eucalyptus citriodora, peel powder of Citrus sinensis, Citrus medica and Punica granatum, neem cake and pongamia cake and spore suspension of Trichoderma harzianum and Aspergillus niger on aflatoxin B(1) production by toxigenic strain of Aspergillus flavus isolated from soybean seeds was investigated. METHODS AND RESULTS: Soybean seed was treated with different natural products and fungicide captan and was inoculated with toxigenic strain of A. flavus and incubated for different periods. The results showed that all the treatments were effective in controlling aflatoxin B(1) production. Captan, neem cake, spore suspension of T. harzianum, A. niger and combination of both reduced the level of aflatoxin B(1) to a great extent. Leaf powder of W. somnifera, H. suaveolens, peel powder of C. sinensis, C. medica and pongamia cake also controlled the aflatoxin B(1) production. CONCLUSIONS: All the natural product treatments applied were significantly effective in inhibiting aflatoxin B(1) production on soybean seeds by A. flavus. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: These natural plant products may successfully replace chemical fungicides and provide an alternative method to protect soybean and other agricultural commodities from aflatoxin B(1) production by A. flavus.
