Meloidogyne incognita (Mi) reproduction and host plant responses in chile pepper (Capsicum annuum) and yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus = YNS) to three sources of inoculum obtained by rearing a single Mi population on chile, YNS, and tomato were evaluated in two factorial greenhouse experiments. The interactive effects of Mi inoculum source and crop-weed competition were determined. In the absence of YNS competition, chile growth was reduced less by Mi inoculum from chile than by inoculum from YNS or tomato. When YNS was present, chile root weight was not affected and shoot weight increased with Mi initial inoculation, regardless of inoculum source. Chile plants inoculated with Mi from tomato exhibited double the nematode reproduction observed with inoculum from chile or YNS. With chile present, Mi reproduction on YNS was nearly three times greater with inoculum from tomato, but reproduction was similar among inoculum sources when chile was absent. Reductions in YNS root mass due to competition from chile failed to reduce the total number of Mi eggs produced on YNS plants. Differences in total Mi reproduction among inoculum sources were not attributable to differences in root growth or plant competition. This study illustrates the influence of Mi-YNS interactions and previous hosts on severity of Mi infection. 相似文献

Airborne inoculum of Botrytis cinerea was monitored bimonthly during 3 years (September 2007–December 2010) on a site in the South-East of France located approximately 5 km away from susceptible crops. Viable inoculum was collected for 96 % of the sampling days, including during cold winter periods and hot and dry summer conditions. The concentration of airborne inoculum was significantly higher during daytime than at night. Peaks of concentration were recorded at different periods each year (September–October in 2008, May in 2010). The abundance of viable inoculum was positively correlated with average daily relative humidity and negatively correlated with air temperature and solar radiation. The analysis of backward trajectories suggested that air masses originating from the North or the South brought more viable inoculum than those from the West. This study showed that susceptible crops may be at danger from viable inoculum of B. cinerea during all seasons of the year, but that risk prediction models could be developed on the basis of climatic conditions and the origin of air masses. 相似文献

Reproduction of Meloidogyne javanica was compared on several Agrobacterium rhizogenes-transformed root cultures under monoxenic conditions. M. javanica reproduced on all transformed roots tested; however, more females and eggs were obtained on potato and South Australian Early Dwarf Red tomato than on bindweed, Tropic tomato, lima bean, or carrot. Roots that grew at moderate rates into the agar and produced many secondary roots supported the highest reproduction. Numbers of females produced in cultures of transformed potato roots increased with increasing nematode inoculum levels, whether inoculum was dispersed eggs or juveniles. Females appeared smaller, produced fewer eggs, and were found in coalesced galls at the higher inoculum levels. The ratio between the final and initial population decreased sharply as the juvenile inoculum increased. The second-stage juvenile was preferred to dispersed eggs or egg masses for inoculation of tissue culture systems because quantity and viability of inoculum were easily assessed. Meloidogyne javanica reared on transformed root cultures were able to complete their life cycles on new transformed root cultures or greenhouse tomato plants. 相似文献

Experiment was carried out to determine the effect of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on the disease development, growth, oil yield and biochemical changes in the plants of Mentha arvensis. With the increase in initial inoculum levels of S. sclerotiorum a corresponding decrease in plant fresh and dry weights were recorded. The maximum reduction in the shoot-roots/suckers fresh weight and shoot-roots/suckers dry weights (39.8%, 43.6%, 40.3% and 42.9%), respectively, was observed at the highest initial inoculum level of 12 g fungal mycelium/5 kg soil as compared to uninoculated control. The infection of roots and suckers due to S. sclerotiorum increased with increasing initial inoculum levels. At the lowest initial inoculum (1.0 g mycelium/5 kg soil), infection was observed 18.0% and at the highest (12 g mycelium/5 kg soil), it was 80.2%. Significant (P ⩽ 0.01) reduction in oil yield, total chlorophyll, total phenol and total sugar content of M. arvensis plants was observed at the lowest inoculum level as compared to uninoculated control. 相似文献

Ehrlichia chaffeensis, transmitted from Amblyomma americanum ticks, causes human monocytic ehrlichiosis. It also infects white-tailed deer, dogs and several other vertebrates. Deer are its reservoir hosts, while humans and dogs are incidental hosts. E. chaffeensis protein expression is influenced by its growth in macrophages and tick cells. We report here infection progression in deer or dogs infected intravenously with macrophage- or tick cell-grown E. chaffeensis or by tick transmission in deer. Deer and dogs developed mild fever and persistent rickettsemia; the infection was detected more frequently in the blood of infected animals with macrophage inoculum compared to tick cell inoculum or tick transmission. Tick cell inoculum and tick transmission caused a drop in tick infection acquisition rates compared to infection rates in ticks fed on deer receiving macrophage inoculum. Independent of deer or dogs, IgG antibody response was higher in animals receiving macrophage inoculum against macrophage-derived Ehrlichia antigens, while it was significantly lower in the same animals against tick cell-derived Ehrlichia antigens. Deer infected with tick cell inoculum and tick transmission caused a higher antibody response to tick cell cultured bacterial antigens compared to the antibody response for macrophage cultured antigens for the same animals. The data demonstrate that the host cell-specific E. chaffeensis protein expression influences rickettsemia in a host and its acquisition by ticks. The data also reveal that tick cell-derived inoculum is similar to tick transmission with reduced rickettsemia, IgG response and tick acquisition of E. chaffeensis. 相似文献

The large potential market for Rhizobium inoculum, both in the USA and elsewhere, is stimulating research into the basic biology of Rhizobium—legume interaction. The application of genetic engineering techniques promises to produce rapid improvement in Rhizobium inoculum strains. At present, however, identification of those traits that will enhance inoculum performance is difficult. 相似文献

Germinating soybean seedlings were contaminated by soil-borne conidia of the entomogenous fungus Nomuraea rileyi. Although N. rileyi was detected on the unifoliate and trifoliate leaflets, most of the inoculum was found on the cotyledons. Diseased larvae of Trichoplusia ni released on the first trifoliate leaves of soybean plants dispersed to all trifoliates and died. In this way, inoculum is produced that infects other larvae feeding on these leaves. 相似文献

Onion leaf blight, caused by Botrytis squamosa (Walker), is a destructive disease of onion. Conidia produced on overwintered sclerotia are the main source of initial inoculum, and those produced on lesions are responsible for secondary inoculum build-up. The biological control agent Microsphaeropsis ochracea (Carisse &; Bernier) was evaluated for its ability to control sclerotia-borne inoculum, to colonize onion leaves and reduce the production of conidia under field conditions. Colonisation by M. ochracea of onion leaves at different growth stages was monitored and its effect on B. squamosa sporulation on necrotic leaves was evaluated. Onion plots were treated with either Dithane® or with M. ochracea at 7–10-day intervals and according to inoculum production index (IPI). The concentration of airborne conidia and the number of lesions per leaf, on 20 plants per plot, were evaluated throughout the cropping season. The number of conidia produced per sclerotium treated with M. ochracea, was reduced by 75.5%. In the field, M. ochracea colonised only senescent or necrotic leaves and reduced the production of conidia on these leaves by an average of 82% as compared with untreated leaves. Best disease control was obtained by Dithane®, followed by M. ochracea applied at 7–10-day intervals. For the three years of the study, there were no significant differences in airborne concentrations of conidia in plots treated at 7–10-day intervals with Dithane® or M. ochracea. Fall application of M. ochracea could be used as a sanitation practice to reduce initial inoculum or as a part of an IPM program during the season. 相似文献

Many factors have been shown to influence bacterial transfer between surfaces, including surface type, bacterial species, moisture level, pressure, and friction, but the effect of inoculum size on bacterial transfer has not yet been established. Bacterial cross contamination rates during performance of common food service tasks were previously determined in our laboratory using nalidixic acid-resistant Enterobacter aerogenes. Eight different transfer rates were determined, each involving a minimum of 30 volunteers. The influence of source inoculum level on the percentage of bacteria transferred (percent transfer rates) and log10 CFU per recipient surface was determined using statistical analysis. The effect of inoculum size on transfer rate was highly statistically significant (P < 0.0001) for all transfer rate data combined (352 observations) and for each individual cross contamination rate, except for data on contamination via transfer from chicken to hand through a glove barrier (P = 0.1643). Where inoculum size on the source was greater, transfer rates were lower, and where inoculum size on the source was less, transfer rates were higher. The negative linear trend was more obvious for activities that had a larger range of inoculum sizes on the source surface. This phenomenon has serious implications for research seeking to determine bacterial cross contamination rates, since the different transfer efficiencies that were previously shown to be associated with certain activities may actually be the result of differing initial inoculum levels. The initial inoculum size on the source and the amount of bacteria transferred must both be considered to accurately determine bacterial transfer rates. 相似文献

Three different inoculum forms of Trichoderma koningii were tested in vitro for their ability to parasitize the sclerotia of Sclerotium rolfsii. Tests were conducted under two temperature regimes and three incubation periods. Wheat bran was proved to be the most potent inoculum form of the antagonist in reducing 0the viability of the sclerotia. Microscopical observations revealed the presence of hyphae, chlamydospores and conidia of T. koningii in the medullar tissues of the sclerotia. This is the first report of the effect of different inoculum forms of T. koningii on the sclerotia of S. rolfsii and of propagule (chlamydospores and conidia) formation of the antagonist inside the sclerotia of S. rolfsii. 相似文献

Criconemoides ornatus at 500, 1,000, and 10,000 specimens per 15-cm pot containing 1,500 cc of soil was not pathogenic or parasitic on "Loveli'' peach. The number of nematodes recovered was always less than the inoculum. Inocula of 1,000 and 10,000 specimens were pathogenic to centipede grass, but the 500 inoculum level was not. The number of nematodes recovered from parasitized centipede grass was considerably higher than the inoculum. 相似文献

Nitrogenase activity, hydrogen evolution, biomass production and nodulation were studied in threeCasuarina species,C. equisetifolia Forst.,C. glauca Sieber ex Spreng andC. obesa Miq., either inoculated with a crushed nodule inoculum prepared fromC. glauca nodules or inoculated with the pure cultureHFP CcI3. Nodulation was also studied inC. cristata Miq. inoculated with the above mentionedFrankia sources. C. equisetifolia, C. glauca andC. obesa were nodulated when inoculated with both of theFrankia inoculum, whileC. cristata was very poorly nodulated. Nitrogenase activity per plant and on a nodule dry weight basis was significantly highest inC. glauca inoculated withC. glauca inoculum after 150 days from planting. This difference decreased and at 217 days from planting there was no significant difference between the symbioses, except forC. obesa inoculated withC. glauca inoculum which showed the significantly lowest nitrogenase activity. After 150 days from planting relative efficiency of nitrogenase was lowest inC. equisetifolia inoculated withHFP CcI3 and inC. equisetifolia inoculated withC. glauca inoculum. Biomass production was similar inC. glauca inoculated withC. glauca inoculum, inC. equisetifolia inoculated withHFP CcI3 and inC. obesa inoculated withHFP CcI3 at the final harvest. The data presented here show that there is a strong interrelationship between host plant and endobiont. This interrelationship is of considerable importance when introducing Casuarina symbioses for production of fuel wood. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to isolate a new bacterium and investigate its ability for degradation of various toxic organic compounds. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence and phylogenetic analysis, the isolated strain was identified as Bacillus sp. CYR2. Degradation of various toxic compounds and growth of CYR2 strain were evaluated with 2 and 4% inoculum sizes. All the experiments were conducted for 6 days, flasks were incubated at 30oC under 180 rpm. Among the 2 and 4% inoculum sizes, bacteria showed highest growth and toxic compounds degradation at 4% inoculum size. Especially, compared to 2% inoculum size, growth of the strain CYR2 at 4% inoculum size was increased by 15.1 folds with 4-secondarybutylphenol, 9.1 folds with phenol, and 5.4 folds with 4-tertiary-butylphenol. Strain CYR2 at 4% inoculum size showed highest removal of phenol (84 ± 5%), followed by 4-tertiary-butylphenol (66 ± 3%), 4-secondary-butylphenol (63 ± 5%) and 4-nonylphenol (57 ± 6%). Compared with 2% inoculum size, degradation ability of strain CYR2 with 4% inoculum size was enhanced by 3.45 times with 4-tertiary-octylphenol, and 2.53 times with 4-tertiarybutylphenol. Our results indicated that the newly isolated Bacillus sp. CYR2 can be used for in situ bioremediation of phenol and alkylphenols contaminated water. 相似文献

Penetration of second-stage juveniles (J2) of Meloidogyne incognita into tomato root explants and in vitro propagated peach plantlet roots were compared. Five inoculum levels were used: 25, 50, 75, 100, and 200 J2 for tomato; and 50, 100, 200, 500, and 1,000J2 for peach. The greatest root penetration into tomato was 30% at the 75 J2 level, but the maximum penetration into peach roots was only 8% at the 200 J2 level. The difference (P = 0.05) in penetration of M. incognita at all inoculum levels into these two hosts indicates that penetration versus inoculum density for in vitro studies need to be determined for different plant species. 相似文献

The form of growth of Mucor rouxii (National Regional Research Laboratory 1894) under nitrogen is dependent on inoculum size. With a large inoculum (106 spores inoculated per ml), the morphology consists mainly of swollen spores with some filaments and yeastlike cells. At lower inoculum levels growth is filamentous. The morphology of this strain on incubation under nitrogen and the dependence of the form of growth on inoculum size are similar to those found previously for other strains of M. rouxii. 相似文献

The establishment of Globodera rostochiensis Rol populations was examined under greenhouse conditions. The probability of G. rostochiensis population establishment was calculated from the number of plants that produced new cysts with viable eggs following inoculation with various numbers of eggs of different ages. Probability of population establishment was positively correlated with inoculum density but was not affected by the age of eggs used in these experiments. The probability of G. rostochiensis establishment ranged from 5% at densities of 2 eggs/pot to 100% at densities of 25 eggs/pot or greater. At densities of 3 eggs/pot and beyond, there was no correlation between inoculum density and the number of viable eggs/new cyst. Also, the number of plants that produced new cysts was a function of inoculum density and not age of eggs. Juveniles from eggs 1 year old or older were equally as infective as were those from eggs in newly developed cysts (4 months old). 相似文献

Milk fat/protein degrading microorganisms were isolated from different locations of a dairy wastewater treatment system with the goal of developing an inoculum for bioaugmentation strategies. Eight isolates, identified by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis as belonging to the genera Bacillus, Pseudomonas, and Acinetobacter, were tested for their ability to remove COD and protein from a milk-based medium (3000 mg/L COD) and compared to a commercial bioaugmentation inoculum. The Acinetobacter isolate exhibited a pellet-type growth in liquid culture, a property that could potentially aid in the separation of microbes and liquid phase following treatment. Based on the individual degradation capacity and growth behavior of the isolates, three microorganisms were further selected and tested together. This consortium exhibited a COD removal similar to the commercial inoculum (57% and 63%, respectively), but higher protein (consortium: 93%; commercial inoculum: 54%), and fat removals (consortium: 75%; commercial inoculum: 38%). 相似文献

When Rhizobium japonicum strain 61A68 was added to surface-sterilized soybean (Glycine max) seed along with 12 different coating materials, a definite effect of temperature upon survival was observed both with and without coating materials. At a storage temperature of 15°C and 50 ± 5% relative humidity, from 0.9 to 14.1% of the original inoculum survived for 3 weeks. At 22.5°C, from 0.5 to 7.2% of the original inoculum survived. At 30°C, from 0.1 to 1.6% of the original inoculum survived. The data indicated that extremely large numbers of R. japonicum would have to be added to the seed to have numbers adequate for nodulation survive for 3 weeks of storage at ordinary temperatures. 相似文献

Three inoculum level combinations of Meloidogyne incognita acrita and Fusariurn oxysporurn f. conglutinans did not affect the incidence of cabbage yellows in the moderately-resistant ''Greenback'' or the highly-resistant ''Marion Market'' varieties. The susceptible ''Early Round Dutch'' variety was more susceptible to low levels of fungus inoculum in the presence of the nematode. 相似文献

We compared the nodulation competitiveness of three strains of Rhizobium leguminosarum by counting the number of nodules formed on faba bean plants after the application at sowing time of different concentrations of the strains to soils already containing Rhizobium strains of the same species. A relationship of type y = axn was found to exist between the ratio of the nodules formed by the applied inoculum strain to the nodules formed by the soil strains and the ratio of Rhizobium cells in the inoculum to the cells in the soil. This relationship was also confirmed in another competition experiment in which two R. meliloti strains of identical competitiveness were mixed in various proportions. The relationship can also be applied to the majority of results reported in the literature. Should it prove to be more widely applicable, it could be used to estimate the relative competitiveness of Rhizobium strains and thus predict the performance of an inoculum in a given soil. 相似文献
