云南芒果采后炭疽病病原菌的鉴定及室内生防菌的筛选

随着对云南芒果需求量的增加,其种植面积日趋扩大,并不断引入新品种,这也导致云南省芒果炭疽病害发生日趋加重。为了有针对性地开展芒果炭疽病的生物防治,采用组织块分离法分离芒果采后炭疽病病原菌,通过形态学观察初步鉴定,并遵循柯赫氏法则对病原菌进行验证。随后,利用rDNA-ITS序列和系统发育树分析明确病原菌的分类学地位。最后,采用5种生防细菌对病原菌进行拮抗试验。通过对芒果采后炭疽病病原菌进行分离鉴定,确定胶孢炭疽菌(Colletotrichum gloeosporioides)是引起云南芒果采后炭疽病的病原菌,该菌株内转录间隔区(internal transcribed spacer,ITS)序列长度为536 bp,登录号为MH744668;5株生防细菌对芒果炭疽病病原菌都有一定的抑菌作用,具有较好的生防开发潜能,其中抗生素溶杆菌L-44的抑菌效果最好,抑制率达53.7%。研究结果为云南省芒果采后病害的生物防治提供了新的思路。

Rapid assessment of resistance of tissue-cultured water yam (Dioscorea alata) and white guinea yam (Dioscorea rotundata) to anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Penz.)

Yam anthracnose is caused by the pathogen Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Penz. and has been identified as the most important biotic constraint to yam production worldwide. Rapid assessment of the disease is vital to its effective diagnosis and management. In this study, tissue-cultured yam plantlets of five lines of Dioscorea alata and nine of D. rotundata were rapidly assessed for their reactions to two isolates of yam anthracnose. The plantlets, obtained from meristem of the nodal cuttings, were grown for 8?weeks on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium, acclimatised for 3?weeks, hardened for an additional 3?weeks, arranged in screen house in completely randomised design and sprayed with spore inocula prepared from 7?day-old culture of the two strains of Colletotrichum gloeosporioidies Penz. The relative resistance of the different Dioscorea spp. was evaluated using three disease indices – severity at seventh day after inoculation, SD7; area under disease progress curve, AUDPC; and disease severity rate, Rd. A modified rank-sum classification method put TDa 1425 and TDr 2040, with rank sum of 2.0 each, as resistant. TDr 2121, TDr 2287 and TDr 2048 were susceptible with rank sum of 27.50, 25.50 and 24.50, respectively. Dioscorea alata TDa 1425 and Dioscorea rotundata TDr 2040 were recommended in areas endemic with yam anthracnose, and also as parent lines while breeding for resistance to anthracnose.     

In vitro and in vivo antagonism of biocontrol agents against Colletotrichum lindemuthianum causing bean anthracnose

Bean anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum is a serious seed borne disease. For devising an effective management strategy, the efficacy of different bioagents, viz. Trichoderma viride, Trichoderma harzianum, Trichoderma hamatum and Gliocladium virens conducted under in vitro and in vivo conditions revealed maximum inhibition of mycelial growth in dual culture (59.48%) and inverted plate (55.98%) with T. viride. All the bioagents overgrew the pathogen and the principal mechanism of mycoparisitism observed was coiling, brusting and disintegration of pathogen hyphae. Culture filtrate from T. viride was found best as it completely inhibited radial growth at 25 and 50% concentration and reduced the spore germination of test fungus significantly. However, lower concentrations of culture filtrate from all bioagents showed little effect on spore germination. Seed application of bioagents was found better as compared to soil application. A maximum increase in seed germination and inhibition of seed borne infection was observed with T. viride followed by T. harzianum under pot culture conditions. T. viride has the maximum potentiality to suppress the spore germination, mycelial growth, seed borne infection of C. lindemuthianum and increased seed germination when compared with the other biocontrol agents.     

Immunoassay‐based Techniques for Early and Specific Detection of Latent Postharvest Anthracnose in Mango

The postharvest anthracnose pathogen Colletotrichum gloeosporioides inciting latent or quiescent infection of mango was detected in early stages using immunoassay methods. Twenty‐five pathotypes isolated from different agroclimatic zones of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Pondicherry, India, revealed the variation in protein profile analysis (SDS‐PAGE). The polyclonal antibodies (PCA) were raised against the unfractioned mycelial protein (UMP) and a 40‐kDa polypeptide present in all pathotypes. Standardization of antigen and antiserum dilutions revealed that an antigen dilution of 1 : 200 (protein concentration of 20 μg/ml) and antiserum dilution of 1 : 100 (protein concentration of 40 μg/ml raised against UMP) and 1 : 200 (protein concentration of 20 μg/ml raised against 40 kDa polypeptide) was found to be optimum for the detection of anthracnose pathogen. Both antisera detected the C. gloeosporioides antigen in enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), dot immunobinding assays (DIBAs) and Western blots. The specificity in reaction was compared by isolating other Colletotrichum spp. from various hosts viz., C. lindemuthianum (beans), C. falcatum (sugarcane), C. musae (banana), C. capsici (chillies) and Botryodiplodia theobromae (mango). The antisera generated against UMP revealed the cross‐reaction with other host isolates and mango stem end rot pathogen (B. theobromae). The PCA raised against 40‐kDa polypeptide exhibited the specific reaction with C. gloeosporioides isolates in all the immunoassay techniques. By utilizing both PCA, the presence of latent infection was observed in healthy‐looking leaves, flowers and fruits in orchard conditions. The fruit tissues recorded high absorbance values followed by flowers and leaves in all the detection methods. The ELISA technique was also useful in assessing the pathogen inoculum at various biocontrol formulations sprayed mango trees under field conditions. The fluorescent pseudomonad strains mixture (KFP1 + FP7) amended with chitin sprayed at 30‐day intervals revealed the significant reduction in pathogen load than other formulations and unsprayed control.     

Culture storage age and fungal re‐isolation from host‐tissue influence Colletotrichum spp. virulence to pepper fruits

Using resistant cultivars is the most sustainable and practical approach against plant diseases. Plant germplasm and breeding lines are selected and assayed against, usually, the most aggressive or virulent strains of a pathogen (e.g., fungus) that causes the disease. However, prolong storage of the pathogen in culture media could affect virulence that, consequently, also influence the outcome of the resistance assay. This study demonstrates that long‐term storage (at least a year) of Colletotrichum truncatum and C. scovillei, causal agents of pepper anthracnose, in potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium decreased the aggressiveness and virulence of the fungus in host‐pepper fruits. However, reintroduction of the pathogen to the host and isolation of the pathogen as the new inoculum, prior to inoculation assays, increased the virulence of the fungi. These findings suggest that re‐inoculation and re‐isolation of Colletotichum truncatum and C. scovillei that have been stored for at least 1 year in PDA medium are necessary when using fungal cultures in pathogenicity and plant resistance assays to achieve desirable, comparable and reliable results.
