Reaction of incompatible isolate of Pyricularia grisea on rice leaves stripped of epicuticular wax reflects blast conduciveness of soils

Upland rice cultivars were evaluated in the greenhouse for susceptibility to the rice blast disease caused by Pyricularia grisea Sacc., on two upland soils from the Philippines previously considered to be “blast conducive” and “blast non-conducive”. Under monocyclic inoculation tests plants grown in conducive soil showed significantly greater lesion development than plants of the same cultivar grown in non-conducive soil: cultivars considered to be susceptible to the isolates used showed increased number of susceptible-type lesions; resistant cultivars showed increased number of hypersensitive resistant-type lesions. A similar effect was observed under polycyclic tests where several generations of the pathogen were allowed to develop on the test plants. Dilution of conducive soil with non-conducive soil resulted in a corresponding reduction of disease severity, although this was most pronounced on resistant cultivars. Removal of leaf epicuticular waxes (LEW) using organic solvents increased the number of resistant-type lesions on resistant cultivars grown in both soils following inoculation. Susceptible plants were not suitable for quantifying the relative blast conduciveness of a soil because of the extreme environmental sensitivity of the bioassay and the tendency of lesions to coalesce. Comparing numbers of resistant-type lesions on leaves of plants stripped of LEW and inoculated with an incompatible P. grisea isolate among plants grown in different soils proved to be a satisfactory means of distinguishing the relative blast conduciveness of soils under controlled conditions. This method was field tested in eastern India and results corroborated farmer assessment of which soils were blast conducive. Using incompatible isolate-cultivar combinations and LEW-free leaves is proposed as a simple bioassay for assessing blast conduciveness of soils and should prove useful in regional characterization of rice blast risk.     

水稻稻瘟病抗性基因研究进展

水稻(Oryza sativa L.)是我国重要的粮食作物,其生长发育过程经常受到稻瘟病的威胁,严重时导致巨大的经济损失。挖掘和利用水稻稻瘟病抗性基因,培育具有广谱抗性的优良品种是目前防治稻瘟病最经济有效的方法。稻瘟病抗性基因一般为编码含有核苷酸结合结构域(nucleotide-binding,NB)和富含亮氨酸重复结构域(leucine-rich repeat,LRR)的基因家族,也被叫做NLR基因,在水稻抗稻瘟病方面发挥至关重要的作用。因此,对NLR基因的挖掘以及阐明其与对应效应因子之间的识别和激活机制,对于培育抗病品种具有重要意义。本文对水稻中NLR基因的挖掘概况、NLR蛋白与稻瘟病菌效应因子之间的识别方式,以及成对NLR蛋白作用机制进行了总结和展望,旨在为水稻抗病育种提供参考。

Biochemical defence responses of resistant and susceptible rice genotypes against blast pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae

Abstract

Rice blast is the leading fungal disease which is caused by Magnaporthe oryzae that contributes for the significant decline in the rice yield throughout the globe. There is a need for the understanding of biochemical changes in rice plant during blast infection for the development of novel disease control strategies. In the present study, we isolated M. oryzae from the local paddy fields and the fungal isolates (VCF and PON) were identified by ITS-PCR using genomic DNA samples. Further, we inoculated resistant (BR2655 and TUNGA) and susceptible (INTAN and HR12) rice cultivars with PON and VCF isolates. PON isolate showed relatively high virulence compared to VCF and standard MTCC fungal strains. Therefore, we evaluated the effect of PON on the total protein content and plant defence-related key enzymes (peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, phenylalanine ammonia lyase, β-glucosidase, chitinase and lipoxygenase) activities between 24- and 120-hour post-inoculation (hpi). The results demonstrated the decrease in total protein content in all the inoculated cultivars. In addition, we observed the variation in the activity of peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, β-glucosidase, chitinase and lipoxygenase at different time points in all the tested rice plants compared to respective controls. However, no significant difference was observed in the phenylalanine ammonia lyase activity relative to its control. Taken together, this study emphasizes on the variation in the activities of plant defence enzymes in different plant cultivars against the tested fungal pathogen and also implementation of defence enzymes as biochemical markers for resistant breeding.     

Chemical induction of disease resistance in rice is correlated with the expression of a gene encoding a nucleotide binding site and leucine-rich repeats

Probenazole (3-allyloxy-1,2-benzisothiazole-1,1-dioxide) is an agricultural chemical primarily used to prevent rice blast disease. Probenazole-treated rice acquires resistance to blast fungus irrespective of the rice variety. The chemical is applied prophylactically, and is thought to induce or bolster endogenous plant defenses. However, the mechanisms underlying this effect have not been established. To understand the mode of the chemical's action, we screened for novel probenazole-responsive genes in rice by means of differential display and identified a candidate gene, RPR1. RPR1 contains a nucleotide binding site and leucine-rich repeats, thus sharing structural similarity with known disease resistance genes. The expression of RPR1 in rice can be up-regulated by treatment with chemical inducers of systemic acquired resistance (SAR) and by inoculation with pathogens. RPR1-related sequences in rice varieties seem to be varied in sequence and/or expression, indicating that RPR1 itself is not a crucial factor for induced resistance in rice. However, Southern blot analysis revealed the existence of homologous sequences in all varieties examined. While the role of RPR1 has yet to be clarified, this is the first report of the identification of a member of this gene class and its induction during the systemic expression of induced disease resistance.

利用二代测序技术高通量分析水稻品种间抗病性差异的分子基础

稻瘟病和白叶枯病是由稻温病菌(Magnaporthe oryzae)和白叶枯病菌(Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae)引起的两种主要水稻病害,也是制约中国水稻生产的主要病害。为了从DNA水平探索造成水稻感病品种‘丽江新团黑谷’(LTH)和高抗品种‘特特普’(Tetep,TTP)间抗病性差异的分子基础,该研究对其已知的3个抗稻瘟病基因和3个抗白叶枯基因所在DNA区段分别进行PCR扩增,将等量混合的PCR产物再与基因组重测序样品按Ct值差值(ΔCt)~10的比例混合,采用二代测序技术进行一次性测序和比较分析,并对有差异的基因区域进行常规传统测序验证,以确定这2个品种中抗性基因(R基因)的数目和结构与品种抗病或感病表型的关联性。实验结果表明,二代测序能够快速并准确地寻找到2个不同水稻品种中多个特定基因的序列差异,且差异位点与常规测序结果相符。从LTH和TTP这2种抗性不同水稻品种在多个抗性基因的DNA水平差异来看,有差异的抗性基因位点在高抗品种TTP中大都与原始抗性基因序列相同,而对应的普感品种LTH的抗性基因往往多表现为氨基酸突变,这些序列差异很可能就是导致TTP与LTH抗性差异的分子基础。     

水稻品种多样性遗传分析与稻瘟病控制

以2个籼型杂交稻——汕优63(A)和汕优22(B)、2个地方糯稻品种——黄壳糯(C)和紫糯(D)和3个粳稻品种——合系41(E)、楚粳12(F)和8126(G)为材料进行抗病基因同源序列(Resistance Gene Analogue,RGA)遗传分析。结果表明,杂交稻品种间以及粳稻品种间的抗性遗传较为相似,其相似系数分别为0．86和0．84。糯稻品种间以及糯稻、杂交稻和粳稻间的抗性遗传差异较大,相似系数为0．45。聚类分析表明,RGA结果与品种的系谱来源相吻合,与品种的田间抗性基本一致。根据品种的抗性遗传差异、农艺性状和经济性状的不同,在云南籼稻区的建水和石屏县以及温暖粳稻区的泸西县分别选用5种(A／C、A／D、B／C、B／D和A／B)和2种(E／C和E／F／G)不同的品种组合进行品种多样性混合间栽控制稻瘟病田间试验,结果表明,抗性遗传差异大(相似性：0．45～0．77)的5个品种混合间栽组合对稻瘟病有极为显著的控制效果,尤其是在混合间栽中高度感病的优质地方稻品种稻瘟病的发病率、病情指数均有极显著的下降,防治效果达54．47％～92．18％;遗传差异较小(相似性：0．84～0．90)的2个混栽组合混栽对稻瘟病的控制效果不明显,稻瘟病的防治效果在15．12％～25．54％。此外,品种抗性遗传和株高差异大的品种组合具有显著的增产效果,与品种净栽相比,平均增产539．0～900．0kg／ha,增幅5．57％-10．38％;品种抗性遗传和株高相似的品种组合没有增产效果。

Change in Action Pattern of Bacillus circulans F-2 Amylase on Partial Hydrolysis with Subtilisin

Cultivar identification of seven Korean domestic rice using DNA markers related to blast resistance was conducted. By PCR analyses using six markers, which we developed in a previous study, and one newly-developed marker for pib, it became possible to differentiate the seven cultivars from each other. This result should contribute not only to cultivar identification but also, to molecular breeding of blast resistance for Korean rice.
