Meloidogyne incognita-infected tomato seedlings were transplanted into sterilized soil or unsterilized soil collected from 20 California tomato fields to measure suppression caused by Paecilomyces lilacinus, Verticillium chlamydosporium, and other naturally occurring antagonists. Unsterilized soils Q, A, and H contained 35, 39, and 55% fewer M. incognita second-stage juveniles (J2) than did sterilized soil 1 month after infected tomato seedlings were transplanted to these soils and placed in a greenhouse. Three months after infected seedlings were transplanted to unsterilized or sterilized soil, unsterilized soils K, L, and Q had 97, 62, and 86% fewer J2 than the corresponding sterilized soils. Unsterilized soils of M. incognita-infected seedlings that were maintained 1 month in a greenhouse followed by 1 or 2 months of post-harvest incubation contained J2 numbers equal to, or greater than, numbers in the corresponding sterilized soil. The most suppressive of the unsterilized soils, K and Q, were not infested with V. chlamydosporium. Paecilomyces lilacinus and V. chlamydosporium increased in colony forming units in unsterilized soil of all bioassays, but they were not associated with lower numbers of J2.  相似文献

Population densities of Meloidogyne incognita and the nematophagous fungi, Paecilomyces lilacinus and Verticillium chlamydosporium, were determined in 20 northern California tomato fields over two growing seasons. Paecilomyces lilacinus was isolated from three fields, V. chlamydosporium was isolated from one field, and both fungi were isolated from 12 fields. Verticillium chlamydosporium numbers were positively correlated with numbers of M. incognita and P. lilacinus. Paecilomyces lilacinus numbers were positively correlated with V. chlamydosporium numbers, but they did not correlate with M. incognita numbers. The correlation coefficients were low (R < 0.5) but significant (P < 0.05). All P. lilacinus and V. chlamydosporium field isolates parasitized M. incognita eggs in vitro. In a greenhouse study, numbers of V. chlamydosporium and P. lilacinus increased more in soils with M. incognita-infected tomato plants than in soil with uninfected tomato plants. After 10 weeks, the Pf/ Pi of second-stage juveniles in soils infested with P. lilacinus, V. chlamydosporium, and M. incognita was 47.1 to 295.6. The results suggest V. chlamydosporium and P. lilacinus are not effectively suppressing populations of M. incognita in California tomato fields.  相似文献

Hirsutella rhossiliensis and Verticillium chlamydosporium infected second-stage juveniles (J2) and eggs of Meloidogyne hapla, respectively, in petri dishes and in organic soil in pots planted to lettuce in the greenhouse. In vitro, H. rhossiliensis produced 78 to 124 spores/infected J2 of M. hapla. The number of J2 in roots of lettuce seedlings decreased exponentially with increasing numbers of vegetative colonies of H. rhossiliensis in the soil. At an infestation of 8 M. hapla eggs/cm³ soil, 1.9 colonies of H. rhossiliensis/cm³ soil were needed for a 50% decrease in J2 penetration of lettuce roots. Egg-mass colonization with V. chlamydosporium varied from 16% to 43% when soil was infested with 8 M. hapla eggs and treated with 5,000 or 10,000 chlamydospores of V. chlamydosporium/cm³ soil. This treatment resulted in fewer J2 entering roots of bioassay lettuce seedlings planted in the infested soils after harvesting the first lettuce plants 7 weeks after infestation with M. hapla. Hirsutella rhossiliensis (0 to 4.3 colonies/cm3 soil), V. chlamydosporium (500 to 10,000 chlamydospores/cm3 soil), or their combination, added to organic soils with 8 M. hapla eggs/cm³ soil, generally did not affect lettuce weight, root galling, or egg production of M. hapla. However, when lettuce was replanted in a mix of infested and uninfested soil (1:3 and 1:7, v:v), egg production was lower in soils with V. chlamydosporium than in soils without the fungus. Both fungi have potential to reduce the M. hapla population, but at densities below 8 eggs/cm³ soil.  相似文献

Selective media for the isolation of the nematophagous fungus Verticillium chlamydosporium, are described. These enabled densities > 500 colony forming units (CFU) g‐1 soil to be reliably estimated. However, there was little relationship between estimates of the Verticillium biomass in a sterilized soil and the numbers of CFU which developed on the selective media. The growth and survival of the fungus infield soils were studied and estimates of the numbers of CFU in soils in which cyst‐nematode multiplication was suppressed were greater than in those in which the nematode multiplied. Isolates of the fungus differed in their ability to proliferate in soil, but some increased rapidly from applications of chlamydospores or a mixture of hyphae and conidia in alginate granules containing wheat bran. The energy source (wheat bran) was essential for the establishment of the fungus from granular applications. Numbers of CFU greatly exceeded those of chlamydospores, but there was considerable variation in the relationship in different soils. Some isolates of V. chlamydosporium proliferated in soil and survived in considerable numbers for at least 3 months. Hence, pre‐cropping applications of the fungus should survive long enough to kill nematode eggs and females that develop on roots of spring‐sown crops.  相似文献

In order to exploit fully the biocontrol potential of the nematophagous fungus Verticillium chlamydosporium, it is important to understand the ecology of the fungus in soil, and interactions with both plant and nematode hosts. Several approaches for studying the fungus in soil and the root environment are compared. These include a semi-selective medium for V. chlamydosporium, PCR primers specific for the fungal -tubulin gene, and monoclonal antibodies. In addition to providing a target for species-specific primers, the -tubulin gene is implicated in resistance to the fungicides used in the semi-selective medium, and the genetic basis for this is investigated. Culture and PCR-based methods were used to screen for the presence of the fungus in field soils known to have been suppressive to cereal cyst nematode and that contained V. chlamydosporium populations. Monoclonal antibodies specific for either hyphae or conidia of the fungus were obtained, and their application as a tool for visualising the infection process on the root was explored.  相似文献

Quantitative aspects of the interaction between the antagonist Talaromyces flavus, the pathogen Verticillium dahliae and eggplant roots, were studied. When eggplant roots were inoculated with T. flavus, prior to the infection with the pathogen, the population density of T. flavus on V. dahliae-infected roots was at least 3 times higher than on healthy uninfected roots, and the proliferation of T. flavus on diseased eggplant roots was related to the severity of wilt symptoms, in the two levels of application of T. flavus studied. However, in all classes of disease severity tested (disease index, 0–3), the population density of T. Flavus on eggplant roots treated with 106 ascospores g–1 rooting mixture was significantly (p=0.05) higher than with 105 ascospores g–1. In roots treated with 105 and 106 T. flavus ascospores g–1 rooting mixture, the population density of V. dahliae was reduced by 51% and 69%, respectively. When testing the relationships between the population density of V. dahliae in the roots and disease severity, no significant (p=0.05) difference was found between disease indexes 2 and 3. However, the density of V. dahliae on roots of plants with disease index 1 was significantly (p=0.05) lower than disease indexes 2 and 3. The positive relationship between the inoculum concentration of V. dahliae and the population density of T. flavus developed on eggplant roots was significant (p=0.001), linear, and highly correlated (r=0.945) on a logarithmic scale. In addition, the analysis of these data revealed a significant (p=0.05), high, negative and linear correlation (r=–0.985) between the log concentration of V. dahliae inoculum and the disease reduction achieved by T. flavus.  相似文献

Verticillium lecanii is recognized as an entomopathogenic fungus, and has high potential in the biological control of pests. In this study, it was investigated that the relationship between agitation speed in a 2.5 L stirred tank reactor (STR) at 25°C and initial pH 5.5, and the morphological characteristics of V. lecanii CS-625, such as hyphal length/width, spore length/width, and the number of tips during spore production. The agitation speed affected the hyphae patterns and the number of tips. The number of spores rapidly increased at 48 to 60 h of cultivation, and the highest spore productivity (2.5 × 1010 spore/L·h at 60 h) occurred with an agitation speed of 350 rpm and an aeration rate of 1.0 vvm. The number of tips increased in proportion to the increase in spore production during the same culture time. The highest number of tips (4.8 × 108 tipJ.mL) was obtained at 72 h of cultivation. The shortest mean spore length (2.8 μm) was obtained at 60 h of cultivation. Therefore, it was determined that the increased number of tips and decreased mean spore length were closely related to the production of V. lecanii spores.  相似文献

The effect of water availability (water activity,aw; 0.995–0.90) and temperature (18–30 °) on in vitro interactions between an ochratoxin producing strain of Aspergillus ochraceus and six other spoilage fungi was assessed in dual culture experiments on a maize meal-based agar medium. Inprimary resource capture of nutrient substrate, A. ochraceus was dominant against many of the interacting species, being able to overgrow and replace A. candidus, and sometimes A. flavus and the Eurotium spp. regardless of aw or temperature. However, with freely available water (0.995 aw) A. alternata and A. niger were dominant, with mutual antagonism between A. ochraceus and A. flavus at 25–30 °C. In the driest conditions tested (0.90 aw) there was also mutual antagonism between A. ochraceus and the two Eurotium spp. Overall, under allconditions tested the Index of Dominance for A. ochraceus was much higher than for other competing species combined suggesting that A. ochraceus wasa good competitive colonist able to replace a numberof other species. However, the growth rate ofA. ochraceus was modified and decreased by the interaction with competitors. Interaction between A. ochraceus and species such as A. alternata (18°C/0.995) and Eurotium spp. (0.995–0.95 and 25–30 °C) resulted in a significant stimulation of ochratoxin production. Theresults are discussed in relation to the effect that environmental factors have on the possible competitiveness of A. ochraceus in the maizegrain ecosystem and the role of ochratoxin in nicheexclusion of competitors. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

The relationship between Fe nutritional status and Verticillium wilt disease in tomatoes possessing single gene resistance to Race 1 of Verticillium dahliae was investigated using hydroponic culture media. Iron limiting conditions increased the sensitivity of resistant tomatoes to the pathogen as expressed by wilting and chlorosis. Distance of fungal vascular invasion was approximately the same in both Fe replete and Fe limited treatments. Comparison of near-isolines revealed that the magnitude of disease expressed in Fe deficient Pixie II (resistant) was considerably less than that expressed by the susceptible Pixie variety. Infection of tomato did not enhance the severity of low-Fe stress as quantified by root peroxidase activity and chlorophyll content of young leaves.  相似文献

The mycoparasitic interactions of Verticillium biguttatum with Rhizoctonia solani and with a variety of other soil-borne fungi were investigated in dual cultures. V. biguttatum interacted with various soil fungi by appressed growth along the host hyphae and infrequent penetrations. Intracellular growth and subsequent sporulation, however, only occurred with R. solani, a few binucleate Rhizoctonia and Ceratobasidium spp., and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Effective mycoparasitism on sclerotia was restricted to those belonging to R. solani.Electron-microscopic observations revealed that V. biguttatum can penetrate the host cell with infection tubes. This process is probably mediated by enzymatic hydrolysis of the cell wall. Subsequently, trophic hyphae develop within the host cytoplasm, ultimately resulting in death of the host cell.  相似文献

The development of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (VAMF): Glomus mosseae (Nicol and Gerd.) Gerdemann and Trappe, Glomus versiforme (Karsten) Berch, Sclerocystis sinuosa Gerdemann and Bakhi and Verticillium dahliae and the effects of the VAMF on the verticillium wilt of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. and Gossypium barbadense L.) were studied with paper pots, black plastic tubes and clay pots under natural growth conditions. All of the tested VAMF were able to infect all the cotton varieties used in the present experiment and typical vesicles and arbuscules were formed in the cortical cells of the cotton roots after inoculation. The cap cells, meristem, differentiating and elongating zones of the root tip were found to be colonized by the VAMF. In the case of most V. dahliae infection, the colonization occurred mostly from the root tip up to 2 cm. VAMF and V. dahliae mutually reduced their percentage of infection when inoculated simultaneously. VAMF inoculation reduced the numbers of germinable microsclerotia in the soil of the mycorrhizosphere, while the quantity of VAM fungal spores in the soil was not influenced by infection of with V. dahliae. The % of arbuscule colonization in roots was negatively correlated with the disease grades, while the numbers of vesicles in roots were not. These results suggest that certain vital competition and antagonistic reactions exist between VAMF and V. dahliae. VAMF reduced the incidence and disease indices of verticillium wilt of cotton during the whole growth phase. It is evident that cotton seedling growth was promoted, flowering was advanced, the numbers of flowers and bolls were increased, and this resulted in an increase in the yield of seed cotton. Among the VAMF species, Glomus versiforme was the most effective, and Sclerocystis sinuosa was inferior. So far as the author is aware, such an effect of VAMF on the increase of cotton wilt tolerance/resistance is reported here far the first time.  相似文献

FLOWERING LOCUS M (FLM) is a MADS-domain gene that acts as an inhibitor of flowering in Arabidopsis. Here we describe the genetic interaction of FLM with genes in the photoperiod and autonomous flowering pathways. Although the sequence of FLM is most similar to that of FLC, FLM and FLC interact with different flowering pathways. It has been previously shown that flc lesions suppress the late-flowering phenotype of FRI-containing lines and autonomous-pathway mutants. However, flm lesions suppress the late-flowering phenotype of photoperiod-pathway mutants but not that of FRI-containing lines or autonomous-pathway mutants. Another MADS-domain flowering repressor with a mutant phenotype similar to FLM is SVP. The late-flowering phenotype of FLM over-expression is suppressed by the svp mutation, and an svp flm double mutant behaves like the single mutants. Thus FLM and SVP are in the same flowering pathway which interacts with the photoperiod pathway.

The parasitic nematodeThripinema nicklewoodi Siddiqi (Tylenchida:Allantonematidae) is currently underinvestigation for use in inoculative releasestrategies against western flower thrips (WFT),Frankliniella occidentalis Pergande(Thysanoptera: Thripidae) infesting greenhousefloricultural crops. The aim was to determinewhether temperatures within greenhouses wouldpermit the establishment of T.nicklewoodi. The abilities of T.nicklewoodi to infect, develop and reproducein WFT were assessed under a range of constantand fluctuating temperatures in the laboratory.At constant temperatures, T. nicklewoodiinfected WFT over the range of 1–30 °C,although the temperature-related infectionprofile followed an asymmetric distributionaround an optimum 20 °C (80%infection). The lower and upper thresholds forT. nicklewoodi in vivo development andreproduction were higher than for infection, at10 °C and 35 °C, respectively.Climate data recorded over 1999–2000 in acommercial greenhouse (Texas) revealed atemperature range of 15 °C to31 °C from early March through mid June,when WFT were most abundant. While low(nighttime) greenhouse temperatures areconducive for T. nicklewoodi, upperdaytime temperatures are close to the upperthreshold for infection and may reducereproductive output. However, fluctuatingtemperature bioassays in the laboratorydemonstrated that T. nicklewoodimaintained separately at the upper thresholdtemperatures for infection (30 °C) anddevelopment (35 °C) readily infected anddeveloped in WFT when they were allowedintermittent (10 h daily) exposure to apermissive temperature in the range10–20 °C. Drawing on the results, thediurnal temperature-fluctuations of variousgreenhouses growing ornamentals would permitthe establishment of T. nicklewoodi.  相似文献

Lecanicillium muscarium is a widely occurring entomopathogenic fungus. Laboratory studies were conducted to determine the efficacy of L. muscarium against different instars of Bemisia tabaci on tomato and verbena foliage after two incubation times (3 and 7 days). Significant reduction in B. tabaci numbers were recorded on fungus treated plants (p < 0.001). Second instar B. tabaci proved most susceptible to L. muscarium infection. There was no significant difference in mortality of B. tabaci second instars after either 3 or 7 days exposure to L. muscarium on either host plant. The importance of the speed of pest mortality following treatment and the potential of L. muscarium to be incorporated into an integrated pest management strategy for the biocontrol of B. tabaci on tomato and verbena plants are discussed.  相似文献

Verticillium lecanii spores (108 spores ml−1) suspended in 1% (w/v) montmorillonite SCPX-1374 and 1% (w/v) of the wetting agent, EM-APW#2, which is a polyoxyethylene, had approx. 80% survival after exposure to UV-C for 30 min and about 93% after exposure to UV-B for 6 h. In greenhouse testing, cotton aphid densities increased 14-fold over their initial density in 15 d without spore application. However, initial cotton aphid densities were decreased by 60% of the initial level when plants were treated with the spore formulation.  相似文献

Several bacterial and fungal strains have been evaluated as biocontrol agents (BCAs) against Verticillium dahliae. In these studies, the BCAs were applied as a root drenching inoculum; however, this application method may have an adverse effect on the native, beneficial for the plants, microbial community. In the present study, it was evaluated whether endophytic application by stem injecting a conidial suspension of the non pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum F2 strain, isolated from a V. dahliae suppressive compost amendment, could reduce significantly Verticillium wilt symptom development in eggplants. It was revealed that stem injection of F2 seven days before transplanting the seedlings to soil infested by V. dahliae microsclerotia resulted in reduced disease severity compared to the control treatment. To visualise F2 ramification into the plant vascular system eggplant stems were injected with an EGFP transformed F2 strain. It was shown that F2 colonises effectively the plant vascular tissues over a long period of time as it was assessed by F2 DNA levels. In parallel, qPCR analysis showed that the application of F2 reduced significantly the amount of V. dahliae DNA in the stem tissues compared to the control treatment.  相似文献

We investigate the diversity of yeasts isolated in gardens of the leafcutter ant Atta texana. Repeated sampling of gardens from four nests over a 1-year time period showed that gardens contain a diverse assemblage of yeasts. The yeast community in gardens consisted mostly of yeasts associated with plants or soil, but community composition changed between sampling periods. In order to understand the potential disease-suppressing roles of the garden yeasts, we screened isolates for antagonistic effects against known microfungal garden contaminants. In vitro assays revealed that yeasts inhibited the mycelial growth of two strains of Escovopsis (a specialized attine garden parasite), Syncephalastrum racemosum (a fungus often growing in gardens of leafcutter lab nests), and the insect pathogen Beauveria bassiana. These garden yeasts add to the growing list of disease-suppressing microbes in attine nests that may contribute synergistically, together with actinomycetes and Burkholderia bacteria, to protect the gardens and the ants against diseases. Additionally, we suggest that garden immunity against problem fungi may therefore derive not only from the presence of disease-suppressing Pseudonocardia actinomycetes, but from an enrichment of multiple disease-suppressing microorganisms in the garden matrix.  相似文献

Growth of a temperature sensitive colonial mutant (cot 1) of Neurospora crassa was compared with a wild type strain. The hyphal growth unit (the ratio between mycelial length and number of branches) of the wild type was not appreciably altered by temperature and there was a direct relationship between the specific growth rate () of these mycelia and their mean hyphal extension rate (E). The specific growth rate of cot 1 increased by about the same relative amount as the wild type between 15° and 30°C. Cot 1 grew and branched normally at 15° and 25°C but at 30°C the hyphal growth unit and mean hyphal extension rate of the mutant mycelia were reduced. Thus, between 15–30°C the ratio, E/ was constant for the wild type but not for cot 1.The effect of temperature and temperature shifts on extension zone length (Z), extension zone expansion time (Z i ) and branching of leading hyphae of mature colonies were also studies.It is suggested that branching is governed by a mechanism which regulates the linear growth rate of hyphae; the cot 1 mutation may have a direct effect on wall extension or affect linear growth rate indirectly due to an influence on the transport of precursors to the tip.  相似文献

Dominant phylloplane fungi of guava (Psidium guajava L.) were screened for their antagonistic activities against the two pathogens,Colletotrichum gloeosporioides andPestalotia psidii, bothin vitro andin vivo. Culture filtrates ofAspergillus niger, Fusarium oxysporum andPenicillium citrinum caused more than 50% growth inhibition ofC. gloeosporioides. Filtrates ofCephalosporium roseo-griseum andF. oxysporum were most effective in reducing the growth ofP. psidii. Volatiles produced from the cultures ofA. niger, F. oxysporum, P. citrinum andP. oxalicum inhibited the growth ofC. gloeosporioides, whereas volatiles fromC. roseo-griseum, F. oxysporum andTrichoderma harzianum inhibited the growth ofP. psidii. The inhibitory effect of volatiles decreased with increase in incubation time. In general, the maximum effect of volatiles was noticed after 48 h incubation. Different grades of colony interactions in dual cultures were recognised between the two pathogens and the phylloplane fungi examined. Maximum inhibition ofC. gloeosporioides was caused byAureobasidium pullulans, Cladosporium cladosporioides, epicoccum purpurascens, F. oxysporum andMyrothecium roridum, whereasAspergillus terreus, C. roseo-griseum andP. oxalicum significantly reduced the growth ofP. psidii. Application of a spore suspension of each test fungus inhibited lesion development of guava leaves caused by the test pathogensin vitro. Inhibition was more pronounced when the spore concentration was increased.A. pullulans, C. cladosporioides, E. purpurascens, F. oxysporum, andT. harzianum were found to be strongly antagonistic toC. gloeosporioides. A. niger, A. terreus, C. roseo-grisem andT. harzianum were strongly antagonistic toP. psidii.  相似文献
