Summary The levels of erucic acid and other fatty acids in seeds of microspore-derived spontaneous diploid plants from crosses between low and high erucic acid parents were examined. The analysis confirmed that erucic acid is simply inherited and is determined by two genes that act in an additive manner. The effects of the genes for erucic acid on the levels of the other fatty acids was also determined and many significant correlations were found. In particular, erucic acid levels were negatively correlated with oleic acid and linoleic acid levels. The study also illustrates several advantages of using haploidy to analyze the inheritance of agronomically important traits. In particular, the number of phenotypic classes is smaller in androgenic populations and differences between classes are greater than in an F2 population. 相似文献

We demonstrated that exogenous application of 200 μM salicylic acid through root feeding and foliar spray could induce resistance against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Lycopersici (Fol) in tomato. Endogenous accumulation of free salicylic acid in tomato roots was detected by HPLC and identification was confirmed by LC–MS/MS analysis. At 168 h of salicylic acid treatment through roots, the endogenous salicylic acid level in the roots increased to 1477 ng g?1 FW which was 10 times higher than control plants. Similarly, the salicylic acid content was 1001 ng g?1 FW at 168 h of treatment by foliar spray, which was 8.7 times higher than control plants. The activities of phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL, EC 4.3.1.5) and peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.7) were 5.9 and 4.7 times higher, respectively than the control plants at 168 h of salicylic acid feeding through the roots. The increase in PAL and POD activities was 3.7 and 3.3 times higher, respectively at 168 h of salicylic acid treatments through foliar spray than control plants. The salicylic acid-treated tomato plants challenged with Fol exhibited significantly reduced vascular browning and leaf yellowing wilting. The mycelial growth of Fol was not significantly affected by salicylic acid. Significant increase in basal level of salicylic acid in noninoculated plants indicated that tomato root system might have the capacity to assimilate and distribute salicylic acid throughout the plant. The results indicated that the induced resistance observed in tomato against Fol might be a case of salicylic acid-dependent systemic acquired resistance. 相似文献

The genomes of many filamentous fungi consist of a ‘core’ part containing conserved genes essential for normal development as well as conditionally dispensable (CD) or lineage‐specific (LS) chromosomes. In the plant‐pathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici, one LS chromosome harbours effector genes that contribute to pathogenicity. We employed flow cytometry to select for events of spontaneous (partial) loss of either the two smallest LS chromosomes or two different core chromosomes. We determined the rate of spontaneous loss of the ‘effector’ LS chromosome in vitro at around 1 in 35 000 spores. In addition, a viable strain was obtained lacking chromosome 12, which is considered to be a part of the core genome. We also isolated strains carrying approximately 1‐Mb deletions in the LS chromosomes and in the dispensable core chromosome. The large core chromosome 1 was never observed to sustain deletions over 200 kb. Whole‐genome sequencing revealed that some of the sites at which the deletions occurred were the same in several independent strains obtained for the two chromosomes tested, indicating the existence of deletion hotspots. For the core chromosome, this deletion hotspot was the site of insertion of the marker used to select for loss events. Loss of the core chromosome did not affect pathogenicity, whereas loss of the effector chromosome led to a complete loss of pathogenicity. 相似文献

Summary The inheritance and linkage relationships of a gene for resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici race 1 were analyzed. An interspecific hybrid between a resistant Lycopersicon pennellii and a susceptible L. esculentum was backcrossed to L. esculentum. The genotype of each backcross-1 (BC1) plant with respect to its Fusarium response was determined by means of backcross-2 progeny tests. Resistance was controlled by a single dominant gene, I1, which was not allelic to I, the traditional gene for resistance against the same fungal pathogen that was derived from L. pimpinellifolium. Linkage analysis of 154 molecular markers that segregated in the BC1 population placed I1 between the RFLP markers TG20 and TG128 on chromosome 7. The flanking markers were used to verify the assignment of the I1 genotype in the segregating population. The results are discussed with reference to the possibility of cloning Fusarium resistance genes in tomato. 相似文献

Summary With the aim of dissecting host-parasite interaction processes in the system Lycopersicon aesculentum-Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici we have isolated plant cell mutants having single-step alterations in their defense response. A previous analysis of the physiological phenotypes of mutant cell clones suggested that recognition is the crucial event for active defence, and that polysaccharide content, fungal growth inhibition, peroxidase induction in in vitro dual culture and ion leakage induced by cultural filtrates of the pathogen can be markers of resistance. In this paper we present the results of a similar analysis carried out on cell cultures from one susceptible (Red River), one tolerant (UC 105) and three resistant (Davis UC 82, Heinz, UC 90) tomato cultivars. Our data confirm that the differences in the parameters considered are correlated with resistance versus susceptibility in vivo. Therefore, these parameters can be used for early screening in selection programmes. These data, together with those obtained on isolated cell mutants, suggest that the selection in vitro for altered fungal recognition and/or polysaccharide or callose content may lead to in vivo — resistant genotypes. The data are thoroughly discussed with particular attention paid to the importance of polysaccharides in active defense initiation. 相似文献

The fusion of protoplasts from the cycloheximide-resistant mutant FOL(C) of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (FOL) and the mycostatin-resistant mutant FORL(M) of F. oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici (FORL), produced hybrids which expressed significant differences from the parents in their pathogenicity and growth and in the electrophoretic separation patterns of their proteins, enzymes and isoenzymes. The results suggest a transformed genetic basis for these altered expressions and the feasibility of using protoplast fusion technology for examining the biology of pathogenicity genes and for elucidating the disease and virulence potential for new races from within hybridisable taxa of Fusarium spp. Such information would be useful for the design and development of long-term control systems for Fusarium diseases, particularly in breeding programs for disease resistance in crops. 相似文献

Ten phospholipids were identified in hyphal membrane preparations of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici when the cells were grown to the late log phase at 15, 25, and 37 degrees C, respectively. The major phospholipids present were phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), which together made up about 70% of the total membrane phospholipids. The degree of unsaturation in the acyl group of the phospholipids was inversely related to growth temperature. The polar head group composition was also affected by growth temperature. Cells grown at 15 and 25 degrees C contained the same relative proportions of PC and PE, but when the growth temperature was raised to 37 degrees C, the ratio of PC to PE was doubled. A methylating system capable of converting PE to PC was demonstrated in vitro. 相似文献

Abstract In the present study the effect of flavonoid compounds on the germination and fungal growth of the soil-borne tomato pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici was studied. Out of 12 flavonoid compounds only myricetin and luteolin exhibited a low stimulating activity on microconidia germination of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici, whereas the other flavonoids tested were inactive when applied at five different concentrations. In our study the tested flavonoids affect fungal growth differently to microconidia germination. Individual flavonoid concentrations resulted in a small increase of fungal growth, but the lowest flavonoid concentrations showed an inhibiting effect on fungal growth for all flavonoids tested. There is evidence to suggest, that low flavonoid concentrations exhibit slight antimicrobial properties against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. 相似文献

A novel exopolygalacturonase (EC 3.2.1.15) was purified to apparent homogeneity from cultures of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici on synthetic medium supplemented with polygalacturonic acid, using two steps of purification: preparative isoelectric focusing and cationic exchange chromatography. The enzyme designated PG3 had an apparent Mr of 63 000±3000 Da upon SDS-PAGE and a pI of 7.0. PG3 was active within a broad range of pH from 3.5 to 9. The temperature optimum was 55°C. PG3 hydrolyzed polygalacturonic acid in an exo-manner, as demonstrated by analysis of degradation products. The enzyme was N-glycosylated. The production of PG3 was constitutive at low levels, and synthesis was increased following induction by PGA and partially repressed by glucose. 相似文献

Growth temperature-induced compositional changes in membranes of Fusarium oxysporum provided a test system for study of the relationship between physical properties and composition. Growth at 15 degrees C was characterized by a decrease in phospholipid content relative to sterol content, a shift in phospholipid composition from phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidylethanolamine and a marked enhancement in the amount of polyunsaturated fatty acids in the phospholipid and triglyceride classes. Uptake of a spin labelled analog of stearic acid during growth and subsequent solution of the probe in the membranes allowed estimation of viscosity and molecular order of the membranes of live cells and of isolated membrane preparations. Less than 1/20 of the intracellular label was accessible to sodium ascorbate while none was released by sodium dodecyl sulfate. All of the label in live cells was reduced by in vivo respiratory activity above 20 degrees C but this process could be reversed or avoided by added ferricyanide. A cholestane spin probe was also incorporated into the membranes. The probes were not reduced as readily in isolated membranes and hence fluidity of the membranes could be assessed over a wide temperature range. At low temperatures (-10 degrees C) a nonlethal, liquid-solid phase transition was indicated in isolated membrane lipids while at higher (lethal) temperatures (40-45 degrees C), discontinuities appeared in Arrhenius plots of rotational correlation time. Activation energies for isotropic rotation of the stearate probes in the membranes changed markedly in this temperature range and this effect correlated closely with loss of viability of conidial cells. Correlation times for stearate probes showed little variation with growth temperature nor were any breaks in Arrhenius plots of this parameter detected in the range 0-35 degrees C in whole cells or isolated membranes. The data indicated control of membrane physical properties within close tolerances throughout the physiological temperature range regardless of growth temperature. It was concluded that this homeostatic phenomenon was due to the counteractive effects of sterol/phospholipid ratio, phospholipid composition and fatty acid polyunsaturation since the condensing and fluidizing components of the isolated total membranes vary in a reciprocal manner. 相似文献

The antifungal compound alpha-tomatine, present in tomato plants, has been reported to provide a preformed chemical barrier against phytopathogenic fungi. Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici, a tomato pathogen, produces an extracellular enzyme inducible by alpha-tomatine. This enzyme, known as tomatinase, catalyzes the hydrolysis of alpha-tomatine into its nonfungitoxic forms, tomatidine and beta-lycotetraose. The maximal tomatinase activity in the fungal culture medium was observed after 48 h of incubation of germinated conidia at an alpha-tomatine concentration of 20 micrograms/ml. The enzymatic activity in the supernatant was concentrated against polyethylene glycol 35,000, and the enzyme was then purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by a procedure that includes preparative isoelectric focusing and preparative gel electrophoresis as main steps. The purification procedure had a yield of 18%, and the protein was purified about 40-fold. Tomatinase was found to be a monomer of 50 kDa by both native gel electrophoresis and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The analytical isoelectric focusing of the native tomatinase showed at least five isoforms with pIs ranging from 4.8 to 5.8. Treatment with N-glycosidase F gave a single protein band of 45 kDa, indicating that the 50-kDa protein was N glycosylated. Tomatinase activity was optimum at 45 to 50 degrees C and at pH 5.5 to 7. The enzyme was stable at acidic pH and temperatures below 50 degrees C. The enzyme had no apparent requirement for cofactors, although Co2+ and Mn2+ produced a slight stimulating effect on tomatinase activity. Kinetic experiments at 30 degrees C gave a K(m) of 1.1 mM for alpha-tomatine and a Vmax of 118 mumol/min/mg. An activation energy of 88 kJ/mol was calculated. 相似文献

Tomatinase from Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici defines a new class of saponinases. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Plants produce a variety of secondary metabolites, many of which have antifungal activity. Saponins are plant glycosides that may provide a preformed chemical barrier against phytopathogenic fungi. Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici and other tomato pathogens produce extracellular enzymes known as tomatinases, which deglycosylate alpha-tomatine to yield less toxic derivatives. We have cloned and characterized the cDNA and genomic DNA encoding tomatinase from the vascular pathogen of tomato F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. This gene encodes a protein (FoTom1) with no amino acid sequence homology to any previously described saponinase, including tomatinase from Septoria lycopersici. Although FoTom1 is related to family 10 glycosyl hydrolases, which include mainly xylanases, it has no detectable xylanase activity. We have overexpressed and purified the protein with a bacterial heterologous system. The purified enzyme is active and cleaves alpha-tomatine into the less toxic compounds tomatidine and lycotetraose. Tomatinase from F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici is encoded by a single gene whose expression is induced by alpha-tomatine. This expression is fully repressed in the presence of glucose, which is consistent with the presence of two putative CREA binding sites in the promoter region of the tomatinase gene. The tomatinase gene is expressed in planta in both roots and stems throughout the entire disease cycle of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. 相似文献

The steroidal glycoalkaloid alpha-tomatine which is present in tomato (Lycopersicum sculentum) is assumed to protect the plant against phytopathogenic fungi. We have isolated a gene from the fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici that is induced by this glycoalkaloid. This gene, designated panC, encodes a predicted protein with a molecular mass of 41 kDa that shows a high degree of sequence similarity to pantothenate synthetases from yeast, plants and bacteria. Recombinant PanC protein from F. oxysporum has been over-expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. It shows pantothenate synthetase activity in the presence of D-pantoate, beta-alanine and ATP. The panC gene from F. oxysporum functionally complements an E. coli panC mutant, demonstrating that the PanC protein functions in vivo as a pantothenate synthetase. Southern analysis of F. oxysporum genomic DNA from other formae speciales indicates that there is a single copy of the pantothenate syntethase gene in this fungus. The presence of a STRE consensus sequence (CCCCT) in the promoter region of the gene suggests that the induction of panC may be part of a cellular stress response triggered by alpha-tomatine. 相似文献

Polygalacturonase (EC 3.2.1.15) produced by Fursarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici was purified by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, CM-cellulose, and hydroxyapatite. The purified enzyme consisted of two electrophoretically distinct "isozymes", that behaved as charge isomers during electrophoresis in several different concentrations of polyacrylamide gel. The two isozymes had similar "endo" modes of action on polygalacturonic acid, as determined by comparison of viscosity reduction, reducing group release, and thin-layer chromatography of oligomeric hydrolysis products. Both isozymes hydrolzyed 5% of the substrate bonds in reaching 50% viscosity reduction. The amino acid compositions of the isozymes were similar and their molecular weights were about 37000 as determined by sedimentation equilibrium. Removal of large amounts of carbohydrate during purification did not affect heat stability of the enzymes. A large proportion of the remaining carbohydrate appeared to be covalently linked to the enzyme protein. 相似文献

The effect of nature of inoculum on disease induced by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici on tomato was tested. Chlamydospores produced in soil 30 days after inoculation induced a more severe disease than microconidia indicating a higher inoculum potential of chlamydospores.
The method proposed produces easily an inoculum of F. oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici which infects the plants consistently and induces a relatively high disease severity. 相似文献

The utility of fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) profiles for characterization and differentiation of isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici and F. oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici was investigated. Two fatty acid analysis protocols of the normal (MIDI) and a modified MIDI method were used for their utility.
Only the modified MIDI method allowed a clear differentiation between F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici and F. oxysporum f. sp. radicislycopersici. FAME profiles using the modified MIDI method gave the most consistent and reproducible analyzed fatty acid data. Evaluation
of the FAME profiles based on cluster analysis and principal-component analysis revealed that FAME profiles from tested isolates
were correlated with the same vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) compared to the same races in F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. Results indicated that FAME profiles could be an additional tool useful for characterizing isolates and forma species of
F. oxysporum obtained from tomato. 相似文献

Saponin detoxification enzymes from pathogenic fungi are involved in the infection process of their host plants. Fusarium oxysporum f. sp lycopersici, a tomato pathogen, produces the tomatinase enzyme Tom1, which degrades alpha-tomatine to less toxic derivates. To study the role of the tom1 gene in the virulence of F. oxysporum, we performed targeted disruption and overexpression of the gene. The infection process of tomato plants inoculated with transformants constitutively producing Tom1 resulted in an increase of symptom development. By contrast, tomato plants infected with the knockout mutants showed a delay in the disease process, indicating that Tom1, although not essential for pathogenicity, is required for the full virulence of F. oxysporum. Total tomatinase activity in the disrupted strains was reduced only 25%, leading to beta(2)-tomatine as the main hydrolysis product of the saponin in vitro. In silico analysis of the F. oxysporum genome revealed the existence of four additional putative tomatinase genes with identities to tomatinases from family 3 of glycosyl hydrolases. These might be responsible for the remaining tomatinase activity in the Deltatom1 mutants. Our results indicate that detoxification of alpha-tomatine in F. oxysporum is carried out by several tomatinase activities, suggesting the importance of these enzymes during the infection process. 相似文献

Development of woronin bodies from microbodies inFusarium oxysporum f. sp.lycopersici 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
William P. Wergin 《Protoplasma》1973,76(2):249-260
Summary Woronin bodies are cytoplasmic organelles which commonly lie near the septa in ascomycetous fungi. Although these organelles were observed nearly 100 years ago, little is known about their origin and development. The present ultrastructural investigation describes the ontogeny of Woronin bodies inFusarium oxysporum f. sp.lycopersici [Sacc.] Snyd. and Hans. In this fungus, Woronin bodies are produced by microbodies. Development of the Woronin body begins with the appearance of electron dense material within the microbody. This material aggregates adjacent to the membrane of the microbody and condenses into a single paracrystalline inclusion. Following its formation, the inclusion is gradually extruded and is eventually separated from the parent organelle by an exocytotic mechanism. After the separation, the paracrystalline inclusion is found at the septal pore. Although many recent electron microscopic studies have used various terms to designate these membrane bound organelles, inFusarium these inclusions are believed to correspond to the Woronin bodies initially described by light microscopists. 相似文献
