昆明美人蕉黑斑病菌——链格孢Alternaria alternata

美人蕉是重要的园林绿化植物和生物资源。为了明确美人蕉黑斑病的病原菌种类,并为病害防治提供理论指导,调查了昆明市美人蕉黑斑病的发生情况,采用组织分离法对病原物进行了分离和纯化,并进行了致病性测定。通过形态学和rDNA ITS序列分析,将昆明美人蕉黑斑病的病原菌鉴定为链格孢Alternaria alternata。     

链格孢Alternaria alternata侵染导致瓜类幼苗白化的机制

用分离自无症状瓜类植物的27株链格孢属Alternaria真菌接种黄瓜,有14株引起了黄瓜幼苗的白化,这些菌株均属于链格孢A. alternata。为揭示A. alternata引起黄瓜幼苗白化的机制,对代表菌株5F29经固体发酵后提取其次级代谢产物,将粗提物按一定量混入基质进行盆栽实验。结果表明,黄瓜、丝瓜和甜瓜对该粗提物敏感,出现白化苗;小白菜和辣椒对粗提物不敏感,生长正常。植物幼苗用粗提物处理的结果与用产生菌接种的结果相一致。粗提物经硅胶柱层析、葡聚糖凝胶柱层析及高效液相色谱（HPLC）等方法分离纯化得到一种活性化合物,经测定该化合物引起黄瓜幼苗白化的最低浓度为12.5μmol/L。该化合物在此浓度下可引起黄瓜幼苗生长点白化,在15μmol/L的浓度下可引起黄瓜幼苗大部分组织白化,致使幼苗很快死亡。应用核磁共振和质谱技术,确定了该化合物的结构,鉴定为一种植物毒素——腾毒素（tentoxin）。研究结果揭示了A. alternata引起瓜类幼苗白化的机制以及不同植物对于腾毒素的不同敏感性。

小孢子链格孢OPA2-1核苷酸序列分析及系统发育研究

本研究采用引物对OPA2-1L/OPA2-1R对供试小孢子链格孢菌株OPA2-1区段进行扩增,所有菌株都可获得PCR产物。核苷酸序列分析表明:不同小孢子链格孢种OPA2-1核苷酸序列存在明显差异。利用邻近结合法构建系统发育树,供试菌株被分为8个组,梨黑斑链格孢Alternaria gaisen、长柄链格孢A.longipes、树状链格孢A.arborescens明显被归于不同分支,显示OPA2-1核苷酸序列对这些种均具有区分能力;链格孢A.alternata的一些不同分离物被聚在不同组中,说明链格孢A.alternata存在明显遗传差异,可能为一个复合体。OPA2-1核苷酸序列富于变化,可作为小孢子链格孢系统发育研究的一种有用的手段。     

异源表达芸薹生链格孢谷氨酸脱氢酶基因AbGDH提高水稻氮素利用率的研究（英文）

氮元素是植物生长发育所必需的重要元素之一。高等植物中的NADP(H)型谷氨酸脱氢酶(glutamate dehydrogenase, GDH)对NH4~+亲和力较低,因此植物主要通过谷氨酰胺合成酶(GS)/谷氨酸合酶(GOGAT)途径吸收NH4~+。真菌等低等生物中的GDH对NH4~+亲和力较高,所以它们在对NH4~+的利用途径中起着重要作用。本研究克隆了来自芸薹生链格孢(Alternaria brassicicola)的谷氨酸脱氢酶基因(AbGDH),并在水稻(Oryza sativa L. cv. Kitaake)中成功表达。体外酶活性分析表明, AbGDH对NH4~+、α-酮戊二酸和谷氨酸的K_m值分别为2.144±0.141 mmol/L、2.690±0.233 mmol/L和96.772±0.542 mmol/L。体内酶活性测定显示,与野生型相比,过表达AbGDH的水稻有更高的NH4~+亲和力和氨同化能力。此外,水培实验表明,与对照植物相比,转基因幼苗在低氮条件下植物高度和干重显著增加。这些结果说明,在水稻中异源表达AbGDH能促进α-酮戊二酸转化为谷氨酸,并在低氮条件下促进水稻的氨同化,从而提高氮素利用效率。

一种来源于链格孢菌的MAPK激酶AtPBS2基因的克隆及功能分析

通过遗传学手段,构建了细极链格孢菌（Alternaria tenuissima）cDNA酵母表达文库并筛选获得MAPK激酶AtPBS2基因,该基因全长2 492bp,编码683个氨基酸。AtPbs2p与来源于烟曲霉（Aspergillus fumigatus）的AtPbs2p（XP_752961）、粗糙脉孢菌（Neurospora crassa）的NcPbs2p（XP_965727）、稻瘟菌（Magnaporthe grisea）MGCH7（XP_001522946）及酵母（Saccharomyces cerevisiae）ScPbs2p（EDN63254）序列分别具有52%、52%、49%和47%的相似性。在高渗环境下,AtPBS2基因与酵母的ScPBS2基因功能相同,具有耐高渗透压环境的能力。细极链格孢菌（A.tenuissima）中存在HOG通路信号途径,AtPBS2基因可能与链格孢菌（A.tenuissima）的逆境适应性调节密切相关。

Two cases of cutaneous phaeohyphomycosis by Alternaria alternata and Alternaria tenuissima

Two cases of cutaneous phaeohyphomycosis, one with a nodular appearance and the other with an erythematous infiltrating patch, are reported in immunocompromised patients. Diagnosis was based on histological examination, which revealed hyphae and round-shaped fungal cells in a granulomatous dermal infiltrate, and on identification of the moulds when biopsy fragments were cultured on Sabouraud-dextrose agar without cycloheximide. The pathogens were Alternaria tenuissima in the first case and A. alternata in the second. The fungi were examined by scanning electron microscopy. The patients were checked for bone and lung involvement and were then treated with surgical excision and itraconazole, and itraconazole only, respectively, with clinical and mycological resolution. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

A case of resectable lung adenocarcinoma associated with sarcoidosis

A 71-year-old woman with uveitis was referred to our hospital for further examination of the possible underlying diseases. In roentgenological examination with plain X-ray and CT scan, hilar and mediastinal lymphadenopathy and a mass shadow in the right upper lung field was observed, whereas fibrotic changes were not obvious in both lung fields. Transbronchial lung biopsy with fiberoptic bronchoscope revealed granulomatous interstitial pneumonia. CD4-positive lymphocytes were increased in bronchoalveolar lavage. The patient was diagnosed as having sarcoidosis. Subsequently, right upper lobectomy was performed, and Stage I lung adenocarcinoma was diagnosed. The patient is under follow up without medication and the disease has been stable for two years. A relationship between epithelioid granulomatosis and malignant diseases is discussed and a review of the literature is given. Since it is still controversial as to the incidence of malignant diseases in sarcoidosis patients, it is important to accumulate data on these associations.     

Mycelium of Alternaria alternata as a potential biological control agent for Eupatorium adenophorum

The fungus, Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissler Strain 501, has been evaluated as a bioherbicide for control of Eupatorium adenophorum Spreng., but the biology of the pathogen–host interaction and the optimal environmental conditions for disease development and effective weed control are unknown. Disease development of A. alternata Strain 501 mycelia on E. adenophorum was assessed under several factors including pathogen inoculum concentration, plant age, dew period duration, post-dew temperature, storage temperature and duration. The minimum inoculum concentration required to kill E. adenophorum seedlings was 3.2×10⁶ mycelial fragment mL^?1. E. adenophorum seedlings at the four-leaf-pair stage were more susceptible than the older plants, especially those at the older than seven-leaf-pair stage. With a dew period of at least 14 h, 100% mortality occurred. The optimal post-dew temperature for disease development was 18–25°C. Storage at <4°C maintained the infectivity of A. alternata strain 501 mycelia on E. adenophorum longer. Using light and scanning electron microscopy to examine the infection process of A. alternata Strain 501 mycelia, it was shown that the time from initiation to completion of infection with mycelia was much shorter (14 h) than with conidia (72 h). It was further shown that mycelial infection occurred predominately through direct penetration at intercellular junctions, while conidial infection occurred predominately through stomatal penetration. This suggests that mycelia are more suitable as infection propagules for A. alternata strain 501 in a bioherbicide for the control of E. adenophorum.

Chemiluminescence of pulmonary macrophages from patients with inactive sarcoidosis,in different radiological stages

Luminol‐amplified chemiluminescence was generated by alveolar macrophages, harvested from the bronchoalveolar lavages of 16 patients with different radiological stages of non‐invasive (asymptomatic) sarcoidosis. None of the patients received any steroid therapy during this study. The mean duration of the disease in these patients was 8 months, with a duration time range of 6–14 months. Six patients were in radiological stage 1, five in radiological stage 2 and five in radiological stage 3. Alveolar macrophages from bronchoalveolar lavages of eight healthy non‐smoking volunteers were used as controls. All alveolar macrophages were stimulated by phorbol myristate acetate. A significant decrease was recorded in the intensity of chemiluminescence generated by the phorbol‐ester‐stimulated alveolar macrophages obtained from patients with sarcoidosis of radiological stages 1 and 2, as compared to the cells collected from healthy individuals (controls). No decrease was recorded in the chemiluminescence generated by stimulated alveolar macrophages collected from patients with radiological stage 3, or from unstimulated alveolar macrophages of any patient. These results provide us with an indicative tool, which might enable us to differentiate, on a functional basis, between the activities of alveolar macrophages in non‐active sarcoidosis.

链格孢菌毒素合成相关基因研究进展

链格孢属真菌(Alternaria Nees)是世界上分布最广泛的真菌之一,可产生9种寄主选择性毒素(host-selective toxins,HST)。根据寄主不同,将链格孢属的7个生理小种称为链格孢菌(Alternaria alternata)的7种致病型。每种致病型产生的HST都是低分子质量的次级代谢产物,只对敏感品种有毒,对抗性品种无毒。参与HST生物合成的基因都是多拷贝的,这些共同表达的基因组成基因簇。各致病型的基因簇位于一条小于2.0Mb的conditionally dispensable(CD)染色体上,CD染色体的不稳定性不影响菌丝的生长和孢子的萌发,但与菌株的致病力有关。从链格孢菌6种致病型得到毒素合成基因,日本梨致病型、草莓致病型、橘致病型有共同的EDA结构域,这3种致病型有很多EDA生物合成需要的同源基因。HST的分子遗传学研究为链格孢菌不同致病型的演化提供了新的见解。
