In three separate experiments, the upper leaf surface of the fifth formed leaf of wheat cv. Highbury, the fourth and fifth leaves of barley cv. Julia and the third and fourth leaves of oat cv. Mostyn were inoculated in a spore settling tower with wheat brown rust (Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici), barley brown rust (P. hordei) or oat crown rust (P. coronata f. sp. avenae), respectively. Fewer pustules developed on distal portions of leaves of plants infected with barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) than on similar portions of leaves from virus-free plants. There were no significant differences in the number of pustules on proximal leaf portions. In barley and oats, the number of pustules on distal leaf portions was negatively correlated with the amount of yellowing of the leaf areas scored. In wheat, symptoms of BYDV were mild and leaves were little affected by yellowing. The latent period of rust on wheat and oats was not affected by BYDV. In barley, BYDV reduced the latent period of rust on leaf 5, but not on leaf 4, and reduced it on proximal, but not distal, leaf portions. In other experiments, BYDV reduced the yield of wheat and oats by 44% and 66%, respectively, while BYDV-infected barley was almost sterile. The appropriate rust reduced the yield of wheat, barley and oats by 33%, 13% and 86%, respectively. When infected with both BYDV and rust, yield of wheat and oats was reduced by 63% and 91%, respectively. Neither BYDV nor rust affected the percentage crude protein content of wheat grain, nor did rust affect that of barley. In oats, BYDV and rust each significantly increased crude protein of grain, but rust infection of BYDV-infected plants tended to reduce it.  相似文献

Ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) was reliably detected in both perennial (S24) and Italian (S22) ryegrass, by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) when plants had been infected for 8 wk. ELISA detected more infections in field-grown perennial ryegrass cv. Premo than either visual assessment or electron microscopy. However, with plants of Italian ryegrass cultivars only recently infected with RMV, positive reactions were more difficult to separate from the reactions of RMV-free plants, which varied considerably with cultivar, some giving high absorbance values. Immunosorbent electron microscopy showed that the RMV antiserum also contained antibodies to ryegrass seed-borne virus (RGSV), suggesting that these high values were caused by RGSV infection in the material tested.  相似文献

After exposure to infection in the field, the proportion of plants showing distinct symptoms of ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) was less in perennial than in Italian ryegrass. The perennial ryegrass cv. Mascot had a smaller proportion of plants with symptoms than cv. S.23. Far milder symptoms were induced in test plants by RMV from naturally infected perennial ryegrass plots than from Italian ryegrass plots. Within perennial ryegrass, RMV from cv. Mascot caused milder symptoms than that from cv. S.23. Severe RMV isolated from Italian ryegrass cv. Trident (RMVT) became milder after one passage through cv. Mascot, although not as mild as RMV obtained from field plots of cv. Mascot (RMVM). Families from two highly resistant perennial ryegrass clones and two randomly selected clones of cv. S.23 crossed in all possible combinations varied in symptom severity when inoculated with RMVT but not when inoculated with RMVM. Families inoculated with RMVT also yielded virus which varied in the severity of symptoms induced in test plants, families with severe symptoms yielding severer virus. Thus, much of the variation in the resistance of these clones could be attributed to infection with RMV of differing severity. Resistance was controlled by several genes which were mainly additive in their effect.  相似文献

Plant yield within and between four cultivars of perennial ryegrass infected with ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) was closely related to symptom severity. Distribution of symptom severity was continuous in four perennial ryegrass and four Italian ryegrass cultivars infected with a severe RMV isolate, and also in another perennial ryegrass cultivar infected with a severe isolate of the virus, a mild one and one of intermediate severity. Symptom expression was polygenically inherited in both Italian (cv. RvP) and perennial (cv. S.24) ryegrass. Both additive and non-additive genetic variation was present in RvP, but the variation in S.24 was additive only. No significant maternal inheritance was present in either species.  相似文献

In a field experiment at Hurley, small areas of old ryegrass sward, known to be infected with ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) were partially surrounded by newly-sown Italian ryegrass. The experiment was harvested by mowing on five occasions. Samples of Italian ryegrass taken when it was 11 months old showed a very marked increase in the levels of RMV close to the areas of old sward. Thus, 84% of the Italian ryegrass plants bordering the old sward to the north contained RMV, compared with 63% of plants only 2.7 m away. The corresponding values to the south were 68% and 39%. The much higher values encountered to the north are presumed to be caused by the movement of the mite vector of RMV (Abacarus hystrix) in relation to the prevailing wind. Two different mowers were used, a rotary mower and a reciprocating knife mower. We could demonstrate no increase in the level of RMV as a result of mowing from the infected sward and on to the new sowing and could demonstrate no difference in the infection levels as a result of using the different mowers. We conclude that in mown swards migration by the mite is responsible for all or nearly all of very local spread of RMV.  相似文献

Cocksfoot mottle virus (CfMV) was readily transmitted on cutting implements. However, after six harvests, only a quarter as many plants of the resistant cv. Cambria as of the susceptible cv. S.37 became infected. In addition to resistance to becoming infected, cv. Cambria also possessed some resistance once infected, and suffered less mortality than S.37. More CfMV-infected plants died when competing with healthy plants than when competing with other infected plants. Both CfMV and ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) caused greater reductions in the yield of their respective hosts in mixed stands of cocksfoot and Italian ryegrass than in single species stands. CfMV reduced the proportion of cocksfoot in the mixture and RMV the proportion of ryegrass. However, CfMV-infected cv. Cambria competed better than CfMV-infected cv. S.37 with healthy or with RMV-infected ryegrass. It is concluded that grass cultivars selected for resistance to virus infection will slow down the rate of disease spread within the sward, and selecting for postinfection resistance will help maintain the aggressiveness and competitive ability of plants once they become infected.  相似文献

The influence of ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) on yield of perennial ryegrass swards was examined under two harvesting frequencies and at two levels of nitrogen fertilizer, in a field trial planted with a clone of ryegrass, cv. S 321, using small plots established with proportions of healthy and infected plants. RMV reduced the height and the number of tillers of plants grown in pots and reduced the height also of plants in the field. The swards were planted in August and at a harvest 8 wk later RMV reduced the yield from 2–12 to 1–52 t dry matter (d.m.)/ha. In the first full harvest year, RMV caused only a small reduction in yield where no N fertilizer was applied and the application of a very small amount of fertilizer would have recouped the loss. On the other hand RMV severely restricted the increase in yield resulting from heavy dressings of the fertilizer. Thus where 400 kg N/ha was applied, RMV reduced the total annual yield from 18-6 to 13-8 t d.m./ha. The effect of the virus was especially great both in the Spring, the period of maximum herbage production, and when the level of fertilizer was high.  相似文献

Perennial ryegrass plants collected from fields and Italian ryegrass plants grown from seed were selected for resistance to infection by ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) by repeated manual inoculation. Two of 108 perennial ryegrass plants and one of 150 Italian ryegrass plants were symptomless after seven and nine inoculations respectively. These three plants were propagated vegetatively. Plants of the two perennial ryegrass clones showed no symptoms after further manual inoculations with the initial isolate of RMV, or with an inoculum from infected plants collected from several fields, or after inoculation by viruliferous mites. Electron microscopy and back tests indicated that the plants were virus free. Some plants of the selected Italian ryegrass clone became infected after a further inoculation with mites or sap, but fewer than similarly inoculated unselected plants.  相似文献

Mixing the ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) resistant perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) cv. Endura with the susceptible Italian ryegrass (L. multiflorum) cv. RvP decreased infection of RvP wth RMV from 37% when grown alone to 22% when mixed. However, Endura yielded less than RvP and there was no yield benefit from mixing the two cultivars. Mixing red clover (Trifolium pratense) cv. Hungaropoly with RvP had no detectable effect on RMV incidence in RvP but did decrease the incidence of red clover necrotic mosaic virus in Hungaropoly from 9% to 1% and of white clover mosaic virus from 53-5% to 41%. The yield of the mixture was equal to that of RvP grown alone but given nitrogen fertiliser. The numbers of eriophyid mites, including Abacarus hystrix the vector of RMV, on ryegrass leaves were similar in pure and mixed swards. It is concluded that with herbage crops, the common practice of sowing mixtures of species may help control virus diseases.  相似文献

In 1983, cereal plants showing symptoms of barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV), collected from 15 localities in Sweden, were tested for BYDV using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Antisera against two Swedish isolates of BYDV were used, a mild isolate (27/77) transmitted specifically by Sitobion avenae and a severe one (39/78) transmitted mainly by Rhopalosiphum padi. No virus was detected in 57 of 607 plants of oats and barley tested. Of the 550 plants in which virus was detected, 366 were infected with viruses similar to isolate 27/77, 116 with viruses similar to 39/78 and the remaining 68 reacted strongly with both antisera. When tested, the latter isolates were shown to be mixtures. Thirty-nine selected samples were also tested with antisera against the USA isolates RPV, RMV, MAV and PAV, and for transmission by S. avenae and R. padi. Twenty-six of these samples were transmitted specifically by S. avenae, one was transmitted only by R. padi and the remaining 12 samples were shown to be infected with a mixture of an S. avenae-specific isolate and one transmitted mainly by R. padi. Antisera against PAV and MAV each detected all isolates tested and the results were very similar to those with the antisera to the 39/78 and 27/77 isolates, respectively. None of the field isolates reacted with antisera against RMV or RPV. It was concluded that 1983 was an epidemic year for BYDV in Sweden and that isolates specifically transmitted by S. avenae predominated. Symptoms of infection by these isolates on oat plants ranged from mild to severe.  相似文献

Meristem tips were cultured from Lolium multiflorum plants infected with ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV). Meristem tips within the size range O'2-fi mm long were cultured on media with or without 2 ,4-D at 1 mg/1. The plants that regenerated in culture showed no symptoms over a 10 month period and no RMV particles were observed by electron microscopy. It was concluded that RMV had been eliminated. The method should prove useful in eliminating the virus from desirable genotypes used as parent material for seed production.  相似文献

In 1976 fields of perennial ryegrass located on two farms in the west of Scotland were found to be far more severely and extensively infected by ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) than had been seen in earlier surveys of ryegrass fields in 1972 and 1973. The chemical analysis of samples of ryegrass from 10 of the fields examined in 1976 showed that RMV significantly reduced the organic matter content, organic matter digestibility, water soluble carbohydrate content and D value of the grass. Furthermore, the losses suffered by grass with the severe necrotic symptom of RMV were significantly greater than those incurred by the grass with the mild mottle only. A correlation analysis between water soluble carbohydrate level and D value showed that whilst the loss in water soluble carbohydrates in mottled grass accounted for much of the loss in digestibility this was not the case in the necrotic grass where loss of green tissue appeared to be a more important contributory factor.  相似文献

The growth of simulated swards of Italian and perennial ryegrass, artificially infected with ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) or RMV-free, was investigated. During the build up of RMV infection, dry-matter yield was usually decreased in infected swards, and the effect was confirmed when single vegetative regrowths of swards were investigated in detail. The primary cause of lower yields in RMV-infected swards appears to be a decrease in net canopy photosynthesis (maximum decrease about 50%) and an associated increase in dark respiration (maximum increase about 50%). The decrease in net canopy photosynthesis is due primarily to a lowered rate of net photosynthesis of constituent leaves within the canopy. A secondary effect of RMV infection is to decrease tillering (maximum decrease about 30%) which results in a change in canopy structure and in particular a lower leaf area index. In the present experiments, lower light utilization by the swards is less important than the decrease in leaf photo-synthetic efficiency in lowering yield.  相似文献

We analysed interactions in the system of two Barley Yellow Dwarf Virus (BYDV) strains (MAV and PAV), and wheat (cv. Tinos) as host plant for the virus, and the cereal aphid Sitobion avenae (F.) as vector, in particular whether or not infection by the virus might alter host plant suitability in favour of vector development. By measuring the amino acid and sugar content in the phloem sap of infected and non‐infected wheat plants we found a significant reduction in the concentration of the total amount of amino acids on BYDV‐infected plants. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of honeydew and honeydew excretion indicated a lower efficiency of phloem sap utilisation by S. avenae on infected plants. In addition, S. avenae excreted less honeydew on infected plants. Both BYDV strains significantly affected aphid development by a reduction in the intrinsic rate of natural increase. Hence, infection by the virus reduced the host suitability in terms of aphid population growth potential on BYDV‐infected plants. However, more alate morphs developed on virus‐infected plants. These findings are discussed in relation to the population dynamics of S. avenae, and, as a consequence, the spread of BYDV.  相似文献

Symptom severity of eighteen populations of Italian ryegrass infected artificially in the glasshouse and naturally in the field with ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) was strongly correlated. A smaller proportion of plants of the more tolerant populations showed symptoms in the field, but this was probably due to an association of tolerance with increasing incidence of symptomless infection rather than with resistance to infection. Under sward conditions, the yield of a sensitive genotype was reduced by 27% and that of two more tolerant ones by 15 and 13 %. The percentage dry matter yield loss of the most sensitive genotype was similar in all cuts, despite the appearance of extensive necrosis at the time of one cut. With the more tolerant genotype the yield loss varied from 7 to 25 % according to cut. Over the period of the experiment RMV infection did not increase plant mortality.  相似文献

The eriophyid mite vectors of ryegrass mosaic virus (RMV) were excluded from ryegrass by covering plots with a polyethylene film house ventilated by filtered air. Initially plots were manually inoculated to give different levels of RMV. During two seasons no mites were found within the house so that all transmission of virus was by sap. Rolling and frequent cutting of uninfected plots decreased yields, but surprisingly, increasing virus infection did not decrease yields significantly. Cutting transmitted virus within infected plots but not from infected to healthy plots, whereas combined rolling and cutting did transfer virus to healthy plots.  相似文献

Several Agropyron species were tested for new sources of resistance to barley yellow dwarf virus (Bydv ) and wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV). With BYDV strain PAV, 11 of the 17 Agropyron species showed no virus transmission when plants were given access feed by viruliferous Rhopalosiphum padi. Similar trials with BYDV strain RMV (vectored by R. maidis) indicated that all plants, except susceptible control plants, remained virus free. Virus status was confirmed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. When plants were mechanically inoculated with WSMV, 11 Agropyron species failed to express symptoms, while five other species showed a segregating response or had some accessions segregating and some resistant. Test results suggest that resistance to BYDV and WSMV in Agropyron species does not appear to be correlated with any specific genome of Agropyron species although most of the Agropyron species containing S genome were resistant to BYDV and WSMV.  相似文献

A virus that causes chlorotic streaks on ryegrass leaves was transmitted by the eriophyid mite Abacarus hystrix (Nalepa). Virus-free mites acquired the virus in 2 hr. feeding on infected ryegrass and the proportion that became infective increased with increased feeding time up to 12 hr.; vectors lost infectivity within 24 hr. of leaving the infected leaves. All instars of A. hystrix transmitted the virus.
The virus was transmitted by manual inoculation of sap to other species of Gramineae, including oats, rice, cocksfoot and meadow fescue, but none of these hosts seemed to contain as much virus as ryegrass; their saps did not precipitate specifically with antiserum prepared against the virus in ryegrass, whereas sap from infected ryegrass precipitated up to a dilution of 1/32. Infective sap of S22 Italian ryegrass contained flexuous rod-shaped particles; the dilution end-point of the virus was about 1 in 1000; the virus was inactivated when held for 10 min. at 60°C. and most of its infectivity was lost after 24 hr. at room temperature.  相似文献

We studied the effects of fungal endophyte infection of meadow ryegrass (Lolium pratense=Festuca pratensis) on the frequency of the barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV). The virus is transferred by aphids, which may be deterred by endophyte-origin alkaloids within the plant. In our experiment, we released viruliferous aphid vectors on endophyte-infected and endophyte-free plants in a common garden. The number of aphids and the percentage of BYDV infections were lower in endophyte-infected plants compared to endophyte-free plants, indicating that endophyte infection may protect meadow ryegrass from BYDV infections.  相似文献

An isolate of BYDV (BYDV-OC), from barley in Northwest Italy with typical symptoms of yellowing and dwarfing, was transmitted by Rhopalosiphum padi, Sitobion fragariae. S. avenae, Metopolophium festucae, R. maidis and M. dirhodum , but not by Myzus persicae or Schizaphis graminum . It reacted in DAS-ELISA with monoclonal and polyclonal antisera to PAV, but not with antibodies to MAV, RPV and RMV. A polyclonal antiserum prepared to BYDV-OC did not react with MAV-like, RPV-like, or RMV-like isolates of BYDV in ELISA or in Western blots. The concentration of BYDVOC in Avena byzantina plants decreased from weeks 1 to 10 after inoculation, but the total virus content per plant increased up to weeks 7 to 8, following the increase of plant weight.  相似文献
