The droplet plating method described, especially when used inconjunction with a baiting technique, facilitates the demonstrationof Fusarium oxysporum in soil. This fungus was present in soilfrom wilt-free areas of oil palm plantations as well as in soilabout wilt-diseased palms. Hyphal fusions between soil isolatesand isolates from wilted palms could be demonstrated. The funguspersisted for periods of at least 1 year in naturally infestedsoils under a variety of moisture conditions; it also survivedin inoculated alien soil forms of Ieast 1year. Soil forms ofthe fungus had a high competitive saprophytic ability, competitivelycolonizing sterilized soils and sand, and organic materialsadded to soils and mixed cultures. The pathogenic isolate, aswell as the soil isolates, exhibited characters belonging tosoil-inhabiting fungi, namely continued persistance in soil:tolerance, in respect of growth and reproduction, to antagonism:and the ability competitively to colonize dead organic materialin soils. The pathogenic form is considered to be a soil inhabitant. 相似文献

Competivive stress imposed by common soil saprophytes may cause an increase in predation by the nematode-trapping fungi, Arthrobotrys oligospora and Monacrosporium cionopagum, on the bacteria-feeding nematode Acrobeloides buetschli. Nematode-trapping species grown with saprophytic competitors in an artificial soil substrate increased their trapping activity compared to control cultures. The results support the hypothesis that competition stimulates the predatory activity of nematode-trapping fungi as an adaptation to overcome their low competitive saprophytic ability. 相似文献

In an accompanying editorial Dr Petr Baldrian made a case casting doubt on our recent work addressing the saprophytic potential
of ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi. Dr Baldrian’s statements illustrate a very valid truth: the book is still very much open on
this subject. The point he raised that the only logical reason for these fungi to be responding to high carbon demand or decreased
host photosynthetic capacity by up-regulating enzymes is for the purpose of carbon acquisition is valid as well. Despite this,
he makes the case that there is no compelling evidence that EM fungi exhibit saprophytic activity. The concept central to
Dr Baldrian’s conclusion is that even though some EM fungi possess the genes necessary for saprophytic behaviour and may even
express these genes, EM fungi do not inhabit a position in the soil column that provides access to usable substrate. In this
paper we present both previously published and newly obtained data that demonstrate that this assumption is erroneous, and
we present arguments that place the saprophytic potential of EM fungi within a broad ecological context. 相似文献

Phosphorus, an essential element for life, is continuously depleting from soils and thus demands sustainable management particularly in agriculture and forestry. Inorganic P constitutes the major proportion as tricalcium phosphate in soils of lower Himalayan region of Pakistan. We sampled these soils and screened for P-solubilizing microbes. A range of culturable microbial community (bacteria and fungi) was isolated and molecularly characterized which make the P available from mineral phosphates. There was an increase in abundance of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) at a 6-inch depth of the pine rhizosphere compared to the surface soil samples. Moreover, the isolates from lower Himalaya have higher abundance and better efficiency to solubilize the inorganic P than the ones from non-Himalaya. Most likely the P-solubilization done by our P-solubilizing microbes is via acidification as we observed the decrease in pH of the medium of microbial growth. Furthermore, the majority of isolated PSB belong to gammaproteobacterial class of Gram negative bacteria. Most interestingly, 13% of our isolated PSB were psychrotolerant (physiologically active at cold environment, i.e., 4°C) and able to solubilize inorganic P as efficiently as at ambient temperature. This study is unique in reporting the P-solubilizing microbes, particularly the psychrotolerant bacterial strains, of Lower Himalaya. Therefore the isolated bacterial and fungal strains have potential and may serve as biofertilizers in the region to increase the P availability in soils. 相似文献

Fungi are an important and diverse component of soil communities, but these communities have proven difficult to study in conventional biotic surveys. We evaluated soil fungal diversity at two sites in a temperate forest using direct isolation of small-subunit and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) rRNA genes by PCR and high-throughput sequencing of cloned fragments. We identified 412 sequence types from 863 fungal ITS sequences, as well as 112 ITS sequences from other eukaryotic microorganisms. Equal proportions of Basidiomycota and Ascomycota sequences were present in both the ITS and small-subunit libraries, while members of other fungal phyla were recovered at much lower frequencies. Many sequences closely matched sequences from mycorrhizal, plant-pathogenic, and saprophytic fungi. Compositional differences were observed among samples from different soil depths, with mycorrhizal species predominating deeper in the soil profile and saprophytic species predominating in the litter layer. Richness was consistently lowest in the deepest soil horizon samples. Comparable levels of fungal richness have been observed following traditional specimen-based collecting and culturing surveys, but only after much more extensive sampling. The high rate at which new sequence types were recovered even after sampling 863 fungal ITS sequences and the dominance of fungi in our libraries relative to other eukaryotes suggest that the abundance and diversity of fungi in forest soils may be much higher than previously hypothesized. 相似文献

A fungus capable of using vegetable tissues for multiplication in soil was isolated and identified as Aspergillus flavus based on morphological characteristics and sequence similarity of ITS and 28S. When grown in liquid medium prepared from the same vegetable tissues used in soil amendment, the isolate of A. flavus produced a substance capable of preventing disease development of black leaf spot of mustard cabbage caused by Alternaria brassicicola and inhibiting the germination of A. brassicicola conidia. The inhibitory substance was fungistatic, and was very stable under high temperature and high or low pH value. It was soluble in ethanol or methanol, moderately soluble in water, and insoluble in acetone, ethyl acetate or ether. The inhibitor is not a protein and has no charges on its molecule. This is the first discovery of the production of a fungistatic substance by this deleterious fungus. Results from this study suggest the possession of a strong competitive saprophytic ability by A. flavus, which in turn may explain the widespread occurrence of this fungus in soils. Production of a fungistatic substance when A. flavus was grown in medium prepared from vegetable tissues suggests the importance of antibiotic production in its competitive saprophytic colonization of organic matters in soils. 相似文献

Groundnuts showed a superior ability to take up phosphorus (P) from two soils of extremely low fertility, where sorghum and soybean died of P deficiency. This ability could not be attributed to differences in root development, to P uptake parameters such as Cmin, or to the excretion of root exudates capable of solubilizing iron- (Fe-P) and aluminum-bound P (Al-P), the sparingly soluble P forms in soils. A new P solubilizing mechanism (called `contact reaction') which occurs at the interface between root surface and soil particles, is therefore proposed. Isolated cell walls from groundnut roots solubilized more P from P-fixing minerals than those from sorghum and soybean roots. The P-solubilizing activity of groundnut root cell-walls might therefore be related to the superior growth of this crop under P-deficient conditions. The P-solubilizing active sites in groundnut root cell walls were located at the root surface and could act as chelating agent with Fe(III). This P-solubilizing active component in the cell walls could be extracted by NaOH, but not by HCl, and was identified as a small molecule through column chromatography with Sephadex LH-20. The P-solubilizing ability of pigeonpea root cell-walls was examined and found to be as high as that of groundnut. As pigeonpea plants excrete significant amount of root exudates with Fe-P solubilizing ability only after they flower, the P-solubilizing ability of root cell-walls may partially explain the high P efficiency of this species before it flowers. 相似文献

The abundance of microbes in soil is thought to be strongly influenced by plant productivity rather than by plant species richness per se. However, whether this holds true for different microbial groups and under different soil conditions is unresolved. We tested how plant species richness, identity and biomass influence the abundances of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), saprophytic bacteria and fungi, and actinomycetes, in model plant communities in soil of low and high fertility using phospholipid fatty acid analysis. Abundances of saprophytic fungi and bacteria were driven by larger plant biomass in high diversity treatments. In contrast, increased AMF abundance with larger plant species richness was not explained by plant biomass, but responded to plant species identity and was stimulated by Anthoxantum odoratum. Our results indicate that the abundance of saprophytic soil microbes is influenced more by resource quantity, as driven by plant production, while AMF respond more strongly to resource composition, driven by variation in plant species richness and identity. This suggests that AMF abundance in soil is more sensitive to changes in plant species diversity per se and plant species composition than are abundances of saprophytic microbes. 相似文献

SAPROPHYTIC BEHAVIOUR OF SOME CEREAL ROOT-ROT FUNGI: IV. SAPROPHYTIC SURVIVAL IN SOILS OF HIGH AND LOW FERTILITY 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

In southern New South Wales the resumption of ley land for wheat growing has been accompanied by an increase in take-all ( Ophiobolus graminis ) and Fusarium root rot ( Fusarium culmorum ). No such increase has been observed in foot and root rots of wheat caused by Helminthosporium sativum and Curvularia ramosa.
It is shown experimentally that these differences are related to the relative capacity of the causal fungi to persist in wheat straw buried in each of two unsterilized soils which, because of past cultural treatments, differed in their organic carbon and total nitrogen content. While the saprophytic survival of O. graminis and F. culmorum was promoted by high soil fertility that of H. sativum was markedly depressed. The survival of C. ramosa was little affected by soil fertility.
F. culmorum, H. sativum and C. ramosa each remained viable under the soil conditions best suited to their survival in one-third to one-half of the test straws for 2 years but O. graminis was not recovered after the 52nd week of sampling. 相似文献

The results show great seasonal variation in number and composition of the fungi isolated from the upper soil layer, especially owing to an increased isolation of primary saprophytic fungi during the late growing season. Before fungicide treatment no statistically significant difference was measured between the number of isolated fungi from the examined soils. During the treatment period significantly fewer fungi were isolated from plots treated with ‘captafol’ or ‘propiconazol’ than from the untreated plots. The differences between untreated and treated plots were not statistically significant 30 days after the last treatment. The ecotoxicological effect on the total isolated fungal flora thus seems negligible. However the fungi responded differen, tly to treatment with ‘captafol’ and ‘propiconazol’. None of the fungi were significantly affected for more than a month when treated with ‘propiconazol’. The number of primary saprophytic fungi (Cladosporium spp., Alternaria spp., Epicoccum purpurascens, and Stemphylium sp.) and Sphaeropsidales, however, was significantly reduced for more than a month when treated with ‘captafol’. 相似文献

Background and aimArbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have an important role in plant-microbe interactions. But, there are few studies in which the combined effect of AMF with a stress factor, such as the presence of a metal, on plant species were assessed. This study investigated the effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus Rhizophagus intraradices and other soil microbial groups in the presence of copper on three plant species in a microcosm experiment.MethodsTwo grass species Poa compressa and Festuca rubra and one herb species Centaurea jacea were selected as model plants in a pot-design test in which soils were artificially contaminated with copper. Treatments were bacteria (control), saprophytic fungi, protists, and a combined treatment of saprophytic fungi and protists, all in the presence or absence of the AM fungal species. After sixty days, plants were harvested and the biomass of grass and herb species and microbial respiration were measured.ResultsThe results showed almost equal above- and belowground plant biomass and microbial respiration in the treatments in the presence or absence of R. intraradices. The herb species C. jecea responded significantly to the soil inoculation with AM fungus, while grass species showed inconsistent patterns. Significant effect of AMF and copper and their interactions was observed on plant biomass when comparing contaminated vs. non-contaminated soils.ConclusionStrong effect of AMF on the biomass of herb species and slight changes in plant growth with the presence of this fungal species in copper-spiked test soils indicates the importance of mycorrhizal fungi compared to other soil microorganisms in our experimental microcosms. 相似文献

Forest soils store vast amounts of terrestrial carbon, but we are still limited in mechanistic understanding on how soil organic carbon (SOC) stabilization or turnover is controlled by biotic and abiotic factors in forest ecosystems. We used phospholipid fatty acids (PLFAs) as biomarker to study soil microbial community structure and measured activities of five extracellular enzymes involved in the degradation of cellulose (i.e., β‐1,4‐glucosidase and cellobiohydrolase), chitin (i.e., β‐1,4‐N‐acetylglucosaminidase), and lignin (i.e., phenol oxidase and peroxidase) as indicators of soil microbial functioning in carbon transformation or turnover across varying biotic and abiotic conditions in a typical temperate forest ecosystem in central China. Redundancy analysis (RDA) was performed to determine the interrelationship between individual PFLAs and biotic and abiotic site factors as well as the linkage between soil microbial structure and function. Path analysis was further conducted to examine the controls of site factors on soil microbial community structure and the regulatory pathway of changes in SOC relating to microbial community structure and function. We found that soil microbial community structure is strongly influenced by water, temperature, SOC, fine root mass, clay content, and C/N ratio in soils and that the relative abundance of Gram‐negative bacteria, saprophytic fungi, and actinomycetes explained most of the variations in the specific activities of soil enzymes involved in SOC transformation or turnover. The abundance of soil bacterial communities is strongly linked with the extracellular enzymes involved in carbon transformation, whereas the abundance of saprophytic fungi is associated with activities of extracellular enzymes driving carbon oxidation. Findings in this study demonstrate the complex interactions and linkage among plant traits, microenvironment, and soil physiochemical properties in affecting SOC via microbial regulations. 相似文献

Summary Data is provided on the fungi isolated from the roots ofAllium porrum which have been grown in three soils. These data show that the roots support a typical root-surface mycoflora, although this is more sparse than that recorded for several other Angiosperm roots.The results indicate that, as suggested by Peterson3, soil pH influences the association of saprophytic fungi with plant roots. Species of Cylindrocarpon, Fusarium, Mortierella and Gliocladium are fungi which seem to be most affected in this respect.The need for detailed studies on the biology of individual species, which frequently occur in close association with plant roots, is emphasized. 相似文献

Among the four insecticides under study, hexachlorocyclohexane (BHC) followed by phorate significantly stimulated the populations of (total) bacteria, actinomycetes, fungi, aerobic non-symbiotic N2-fixing bacteria and P-solubilizing microorganisms in soil. Carbofuran significantly stimulated total as well as N2-fixing bacteria. Fenvalerate had no effect on P-solubilizers. All the insecticides stimulated the proportion of Penicillium in soil. Similarly, Pseudomonas with BHC, Sarcina with phorate, Corynebacterium, Azotobacter and Streptomyces with fenvalerate were also stimulated. On the other hand, Erysipelothrix with BHC, Staphylococcus with phorate, Staphylococcus, Nocardia and Fusarium with fenvalerate were inhibited. Almost all the insecticides reduced the proportions of Micrococcus and Rhizopus in soil. Insecticides also augmented the non-symbiotic N2-fixing and P-solubilizing capacities of the soil and the augmentation was more pronounced with BHC followed by phorate. 相似文献

Competition is a major type of interaction between fungi and bacteria in soil and is also an important factor in suppression of plant diseases caused by soil-borne fungal pathogens. There is increasing attention for the possible role of volatiles in competitive interactions between bacteria and fungi. However, knowledge on the actual role of bacterial volatiles in interactions with fungi within soil microbial communities is lacking. Here, we examined colonization of sterile agricultural soils by fungi and bacteria from non-sterile soil inoculums during exposure to volatiles emitted by soil-derived bacterial communities. We found that colonization of soil by fungi was negatively affected by exposure to volatiles emitted by bacterial communities whereas that of bacteria was barely changed. Furthermore, there were strong effects of bacterial community volatiles on the assembly of fungal soil colonizers. Identification of volatile composition produced by bacterial communities revealed several compounds with known fungistatic activity. Our results are the first to reveal a collective volatile-mediated antagonism of soil bacteria against fungi. Given the better exploration abilities of filamentous fungi in unsaturated soils, this may be an important strategy for bacteria to defend occupied nutrient patches against invading fungi. Another implication of our research is that bacterial volatiles in soil atmospheres can have a major contribution to soil fungistasis. 相似文献

The competitive saprophytic ability (CSA) of Cephalasporium maydis was smaller at 30 C when measured by the agar-plate modification than by the original Cambridge method. The agar-plate method suggested that C. maydis was a less competitive saprophyte than C. acremonium although both were low in CSA.
C. acremonium grows and sporulates well on organic and synthetic media. C. maydis grows faster but is more exacting nutritionally and is less able to decompose cellulose or maize straw than C. acremonium . Neither fungus produced pectolytic culture filtrates and both were susceptible to antibiotics produced by soil micro-organisms.
C. maydis survived on maize straw much longer than C. acremonium . In field soils C. maydis colonized and survived in supplemented wheat bran poorly and not below the top 20 cm of soil. 相似文献

Summary The interrelationship between the growth ofCoprinus lagopus andFusarium udum on pigeon pea substrates in soil was studied at 22-2°C and 30±2°C in relation to their competitive saprophytic ability and antagonism.C. lagopus was observed to be a potent and frequent colonizer of pigeon pea substrates in soil along withF. udum. Saprophytic colonization of pigeon pea substrate byF. udum precolonized byC. lagopus was inhibited in all inoculum soil mixtures. Saprophytic colonization of the substrate byF. udum was better at 22°C than at 30°C and that byC. lagopus better at 30°C than at 22°C. The colonization of substrate by each fungus was suppressed by the other fungus depending upon the temperature used. Hyphal parasitism and colony interactions between these fungi and also with a number of other saprophytic fungi were investigated. No antagonistic reaction was observed betweenF. udum andC. lagopus. However, these fungi were observed to be potent antagonists against other microfungi tested. The formation of fruiting bodies ofC. lagopus was also observed in the laboratory on nutrient media but more frequently on pigeon pea substrates. 相似文献

BackgroundThe soil is a natural reservoir of keratinophilic fungi, which are a small but important group of filamentous fungi, some of which typically develop on keratinized tissues of living animals. There are numerous species of saprophytic fungi with recognized keratinophilic abilities, and several studies have been undertaken in order to link their presence to possible human disease.AimsTo know the biota of geophilic fungi in general and of keratinophilic fungi particularly in soils from two public parks.MethodsSoil samples from two public parks of Corrientes city, Argentina, were studied during two seasons, using the hook technique and serial dilutions for fungal isolation.ResultsUsing the hook technique, 170 isolates were classified into 17 genera and 21 species, among which it is worth mentioning the presence of Microsporum canis. Shannon index for keratinophilic fungi in autumn was 2.27, and 1.92 in spring. By means of the serial dilutions technique, 278 fungi isolated were identified into 33 genera and 71 species. Shannon index in autumn was 3.9, and 3.5 in spring.ConclusionsThe soils studied have particularly favorable conditions for the survival of pathogens and opportunistic geophilic fungi for humans and animals. 相似文献
