本文以“中农一号”、“华杂13”、“中农翅鲍”和“CCMSSC 00488”4个白灵侧耳菌株为材料,通过测定高温胁迫下菌丝体内硫代巴比妥酸反应物（thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances,TBARS）和蛋白质羰基（protein carbonyl,PCO）含量,观察适温培养和高温胁迫后恢复培养时菌落的生长速率、生长势和菌丝形态特征,研究不同白灵侧耳栽培种质对高温胁迫的反应。研究表明,白灵侧耳不同栽培种质对高温胁迫的反应在氧化损伤程度、菌落形态和菌丝形态特征上都有变化,不同材料的高温伤害程度有着较显著的差异。4个材料高温胁迫条件下TBARS和PCO含量均显著升高,但是升高程度不同,按照TBARS和PCO含量多少排序,依次为CCMSSC 00488>华杂13>中农翅鲍>中农一号。高温胁迫处理后恢复生长需要的时间依次为：CCMSSC 00488>华杂13>中农翅鲍、中农一号;菌落生长势：中农一号>中农翅鲍=华杂13>CCMSSC 00488;菌丝形态特征：菌丝表面增长率、菌丝顶端细胞表面积、菌丝直径和菌丝体分支频率均显著降低,但降低程度以中农一号为最大。菌丝体分支频率与菌落生长势相对应。     

CfAtg8在调控果生刺盘孢正负菌株分化中的功能

由果生刺盘孢Colletotrichum fructicola引起的炭疽叶枯病严重危害苹果果实和叶片。刺盘孢属真菌可以产生具有形态和遗传差异的正型(+)和负型(-)菌株,但其分化的分子机制目前尚不清楚。本研究通过同源重组对CfAtg8功能进行分析,结果显示,CfAtg8显著影响果生刺盘孢正菌株(1104-7)菌落颜色和气生菌丝茂密程度,但不影响负菌株(1104-6);正菌株突变体不产生子囊壳,负菌株突变体子囊壳变小、数量增多;正菌株突变体与负菌株野生型1104-6杂交不形成交配线,负菌株突变体与正菌株野生型1104-7杂交形成正常交配线;此外,CfAtg8还影响正、负菌株分生孢子萌发、附着胞形成及致病性等。这些结果表明自噬基因CfAtg8是影响果生刺盘孢正负菌株分化、形态发育和致病的重要基因。

印度块菌子囊果内部解剖结构的扫描电镜观察

利用扫描电镜对成熟印度块菌子囊果的内部结构进行了观察,以系统揭示其子囊果内部组织特征,为块菌属的分类以及块菌属真菌子囊果的生理研究奠定基础。观察结果进一步证明,成熟印度块菌子囊果横切面上的白色迷宫状脉络是由不育的侧丝构成,而暗脉则是被侧丝缠绕并包裹着的可育的菌丝组织,即产孢组织,这些白色脉络和暗脉就构成了印度块菌子囊果横切面上迷宫状的纹脉;产孢组织中,可观察到正在发育的大大小小的子囊被缠绕在一起的大量产囊丝与侧丝包裹着,形成密密麻麻微小的类似蜂巢状结构;子囊孢子游离于子囊中,成熟子囊孢子表面有刺状纹饰,刺的顶端有小弯钩。单个子囊内含的子囊孢子大小与其内含的子囊孢子数目有关,子囊内所含的子囊孢子越多,子囊孢子就越小。     

苎麻疫霉有性生殖导致菌落形态和生长速率在无性后代持续变异的研究

研究了苎麻疫霉（PhytophthoraboehmeriaeSawada）菌株JS-5自交S1代单卵孢株的菌落形态和生长速率在其单游动孢子无性系后代的遗传与变异。结果表明,亲本菌株JS-5的菌落形态和生长速率在连续4代单游动孢子无性系后代稳定遗传,而该菌株的自交S1代的约2／3单卵孢株的上述性状在其单拘无性后代中发生分离,且上述性状的分离在无性单孢后代中至少可连续保持3～4代。本研究结果提示,苎麻疫霉有性生殖导致上述性状的变异,除有性生殖过程中的基因重组外,有性生殖还诱导产生了一种新的机制参与上述性状遗传与变异的调控。本研究还观察到供试菌株及其后代所产生的游动孢子绝大多数细胞内只含有1个细胞核,表明上述机制与异核现象无关。有性生殖导致生物学性状在随后的无性后代中发生持续变异可能是苎麻疫霉生物学性状遗传多样性的重要机制之一。

新生隐球菌一个新的产孢相关蛋白Srp1的鉴定与功能分析

【目的】研究产孢相关蛋白Srp1在新生隐球菌有性产孢和致病性中的作用及机理。【方法】采用基因枪转化技术构建新生隐球菌SRP1基因缺失突变体及其互补菌株,并通过小鼠致病性实验和菌株交配实验检测Srp1在新生隐球菌有性产孢和致病性中的作用。【结果】与野生型菌株相比,srp1Δ突变体小鼠致病性无差异;srp1Δ突变体能够交配并形成双核菌丝,但丧失产生担孢子的能力;初步机理分析表明srp1Δ突变体交配后其减数分裂过程被阻断,从而导致srp1Δ突变体不能产生担孢子。【结论】产孢相关蛋白Srp1不影响新生隐球菌的致病性,但可通过调控减数分裂过程影响新生隐球菌的有性生殖。

Genetic analysis of spore killing in the filamentous ascomycete Podospora anserina

In the present study, we analysed different Podospora anserina strains for their ability to induce spore killing and identified three new killer strains. Test crosses of killer strains with different sensitive strains revealed different second division segregation ratios suggesting an influence of the sensitive strain on the crossing-over frequency. In crosses of killer strain O with a sensitive strain, the frequency of two-spored asci was found to vary extremely from perithecium to perithecium. Furthermore, crosses of strain O with sensitive strain Us5 led to a significant proportion of asci containing an unexpected high number of surviving spores as the result of gene conversion. Finally, for the first time, we present data demonstrating that in a number of ascospores the killer and the corresponding sensitive allele is located in one individual nucleus. Mycelia derived from such ascospores display a "sensitive killer" phenotype. Crosses of these mycelia with a killer strain as well as with a sensitive strain result in spore killing. Strikingly, heterokaryotic spores containing the recombined "sensitive/killer" allele and a nucleus with a killer allele give rise to mycelia protected against spore killing during selfing.     

Deletion and complementation of the mating type (MAT) locus of the wheat head blight pathogen Gibberella zeae

Gibberella zeae, a self-fertile, haploid filamentous ascomycete, causes serious epidemics of wheat (Triticum aestivum) head blight worldwide and contaminates grain with trichothecene mycotoxins. Anecdotal evidence dating back to the late 19th century indicates that G. zeae ascospores (sexual spores) are a more important inoculum source than are macroconidia (asexual spores), although the fungus can produce both during wheat head blight epidemics. To develop fungal strains to test this hypothesis, the entire mating type (MAT1) locus was deleted from a self-fertile (MAT1-1/MAT1-2), virulent, trichothecene-producing wild-type strain of G. zeae. The resulting MAT deletion (mat1-1/mat1-2) strains were unable to produce perithecia or ascospores and appeared to be unable to mate with the fertile strain from which they were derived. Complementation of a MAT deletion strain by transformation with a copy of the entire MAT locus resulted in recovery of production of perithecia and ascospores. MAT deletion strains and MAT-complemented strains retained the ability to produce macroconidia that could cause head blight, as assessed by direct injection into wheat heads in greenhouse tests. Availability of MAT-null and MAT-complemented strains provides a means to determine the importance of ascospores in the biology of G. zeae and perhaps to identify novel approaches to control wheat head blight.     

Clavispora,a new yeast genus of the Saccharomycetales

In Candida lusitaniae van Uden et do Carmo-Sousa (1959), strains of opposite sex have been found. Cells of the opposite mating types conjugate and form asci with one to four clavate spores. These are easily liberated from the ascus. The type strain of Candida obtusa (Dietrichson) van Uden et do Carmo-Sousa ex van Uden et Buckley (1970) also produces ascospores after mating with one of the strains of Candida lusitaniae. As clavate ascospores are unknow in yeasts, a new genus, Clavispora, is proposed with Clavispora lusitaniae spec. nov. as type species.     

Ascospore Dimorphism and Mating Type in Chromocrea spinulosa (Fuckel) Petch n. comb

The asci contain four large and four small ascospores, eachtwo-celled, arranged in the six patterns expected if spore sizewere controlled by a pair of allelic genes, the locus showing65 per cent, second-division segregation. The small ascosporesproduce sterile colonies, the large ones moderately fertilecolonies whose asci again show segregation for spore size. Fertilityis stimulated where colonies from large and small spores meet.In crosses of various mutants with the wild type, all asci inperithecia developed along the line of junction show segregationfor the mutant as well as for spore size. Evidently Chromocreais heterothallic, the spore-size difference being a pleiotropicexpression of mating type. One allele, that governing largespores, occasionally mutates to the other allele, resultingin fertility of colonies from large spores.     

Neurospora discreta,a new heterothallic species defined by its crossing behavior

The species is described and namedNeurospora discreta sp. nov. because of its stringent reproductive isolation. Isolates collected from burned vegetation at a single site near Kirbyville, Texas, include both mating types (Aanda). Experimental criteria based on cross-fertility were used for assigning species status. Crosses between isolates of opposite mating type are highly fertile, producing abundant eightspored asci. In contrast, when the Kirbyville strains are crossed to sexually compatible speciestester strains representingN. crassa, N. intermedia, N. sitophila, andN. tetrasperma, perithecia are rudimentary and no ascospores are produced. The haploid chromosome number is 7. Chromosomes at pachytene resemble those of otherNeurospora species. Biotin is required. Linear growth is slower than for other heterothallic species. When A and a strains from Kirbyville grow toward one another and intersect on crossing medium, there is no barrage. A single homogeneous band of perithecia is formed where they meet, indicating that opposite mating types are vegetatively compatible. The Kirbyville population differs from other heterothallicNeurospora species in ascospore morphology and vegetative traits. Ascospores from Kirbyville parents are larger, and the ribs between confluent parallel grooves are ornamented with dot-like pits. Vegetative cultures from Kirbyville are yellowish rather than orange, and large empty barren protoperithecia or false perithecia are produced abundantly in unfertilized haploid cultures. Isolates from two otherN. discreta populations resemble otherNeurospora species more closely with respect to these morphological traits but are clearly conspecific with the Kirbyville strains on the basis of fertility in crosses.     

Perithecium development in Sordaria brevicollis

Microconidia and ascogonial coils were produced by the two strains of Sordaria brevicollis , WTA and WTa. Over 90% of the microconidia, which functioned chiefly for sexual reproduction, germinated producing short–lived germ tubes. Ascogonial coils with conspicuous trichogynes were observed. A hypha was initiated from the base of the ascogonial coil and soon completely surrounded it, giving rise to the protoperithecium. The ascogonial coil became the ascogonium within the proto–perithecium, and it was surrounded by a pseudoparenchymatous centrum. Many paraphyses arose from pseudoparenchymatous cells. The ascogonium followed the Sordariaceous type of development and gave rise to ascogenous hyphae, croziers, unitunicate asci and ascospores. Anomalous perithecia were observed and perithecia reached maturity 9–1 1 days after inoculation.

Heterothallic mating observed between Mexican isolates of Glomerella lindemuthiana

Although several reports have described the occurrence of the teleomorphic state of Glomerella lindemuthiana (anamorph, Colletotrichum lindemuthianum), there has been a lack of continuity in this research. To identify G. lindemuthiana isolates capable of developing the teleomorphic state, 19 Mexican isolates were analyzed. Three types of response were observed: (i) negative, where only mycelial growth with or without acervuli was observed; (ii) potential, where in addition to the above, spherical perithecia-like structures were observed; (iii) positive, where perithecia containing asci and ascospores were observed. All strains were self-sterile and only one combination of strains produced fertile perithecia. From this fertile combination 168 individual ascospore cultures were isolated, including five from a single ascus. Forty-four monoascospore cultures were characterized with AFLP, confirming that these individuals were progeny from a sexual cross between the original two G. lindemuthiana isolates and that sexual reproduction in G. lindemuthiana is heterothallic in nature. Analysis of the parental strains with degenerate PCR primers indicated that sequences homologous to the HMG box of the MAT1-2 idiomorph are present in both parental isolates. This supports previous observations in other Glomerella species where the standard ascomycete configuration of distinct idiomorphs at the MAT locus does not hold true. The significance of these results is discussed.     

江苏省稻瘟病菌有性态的研究*

用标准菌株对１９９７～１９９９年在江苏省吴江市,宜兴市、通州市、高邮市和赣榆县采集的３２５个猪瘟病菌单孢分离菌株的可育性和交配型进行了测定,结果表明江苏省稻瘟病菌菌株的育性较低,可交配率为２２．７７％,可育率仅为７．０８％。不同年份、不同地区采集的猪瘟病菌茵株的性亲和力和交配型有较大的差异,三年的交配率分别为２６．６１％、８．２６％和３３．６４％;温州地区和赣榆地区菌株的交配率相对较高,分别为２６．１５％和２５．４２％,宜兴地区菌株的交配率较低,只有１５．３８％。江苏省稻瘟病菌菌株的交配型在不同年份亦出现很大差别,１９９７年２９个可交配菌株中有２１个菌株表现为ＭＡＴ１－２ 交配型,而１９９９年３６个可交配茵株均为ＭＡＴ１－１交配型。用江苏省稻瘟病菌的可育菌株进行互交,２５个组合中只有６个组合能产生子囊壳和子囊,但均不产生子囊孢子,提示江苏省稻瘟病菌在田间产生健康有性后代的几率不大。对杂交后代的遗传学分析表明,菌株的交配型是受单基因控制的。
