锈寄生菌对落叶松褐锈病的抑制效应

目测及镜检结果表明,褐锈菌被锈寄生菌寄生后,夏孢子堆由桔红渐变为灰褐,后期夏孢子失去发芽力,孢子堆原基处只存有寄生菌的分生孢子器．锈寄生菌的发酵液代谢产物含有３种抗性物质．自７月中下旬至９月中旬,分生孢子的发生量多于褐锈菌的孢子量,表明落叶松褐锈病的发生程度随着锈寄生菌寄生率的增加而减轻．

油松与赤松疱锈病病原及转主的研究

油松与赤松疱锈病是两针松类枝干上的重要病害,从油松和赤松主干病皮上取锈孢子分别向山芍药、芍药、返顾马先蒿、轮花马先蒿、长白茶藨子、东北茶藨子、香茶藨子和刺李进行室内和室外人工接种试验,终于在山芍药、芍药上接种成功,产生与自然状态下相同的典型症状。同样方法用夏孢子接种也都成功,在两种芍药上所产生的夏孢子堆与冬孢子柱以及夏孢子与冬孢子的形态也基本相同。由此可以肯定,油松疱锈病与赤松疱锈病是同一病原,病原菌为松芍柱锈菌[cronartium flaccidum(Alb·et Schw·)Wint]。取锈孢子用同样方法经多次在返顾马先蒿、轮花马先蒿、长白茶藨子、东北茶藨子、香茶藨子和刺李上接种,均未成功,因此认为这些植物与此两种疱锈病的发生无关,两种疱锈病在辽宁的转主寄主是山芍药(Paeonia obovata Haxim.)和芍药(P.lactiflora Pall.)。     

马尾松疱锈病菌及转主寄生的研究

马尾松疱锈病是一种严重的病害,病菌的性孢子、锈孢子(O、Ⅰ)阶段发生在马尾松(Pinus massoniana Lamb.)枝干上,夏孢子、冬孢子(Ⅱ、Ⅲ)阶段出现在玄参科的阴行草(siphonostegia chinensis Benth.)叶背、茎、萼片及果实上。取马尾松病干上的锈孢子人工接种,只有阴行草感病,产生与自然状态下相同的典型症状。该病菌性孢子器平展或不规则形,生于皮下;锈孢子表面塔状疣突的基部两层环纹很厚;冬孢子柱较小,长度很少超过800μm。因此认为,马尾松疱锈病菌是松芍柱锈菌[Cronartium flaccidum(Alb.et Schw.)Wint.]的阴行草专化型(C.flaccidum f.sp.siphonostegium)

Comparison of the Wheat Brown and Yellow Rusts for Monocyclic Sporulation and Infection Processes, and their Polycyclic Consequences

Sporulation capacity and infection efficiency of wheat brown and yellow rusts were measured daily in favourable controlled conditions. Monocyclic sporulation capacity for a single lesion of yellow rust was 9 times greater than for an isolated lesion of brown rust, and 40 times greater than for a lesion of brown rust at medium infection density. Infection efficiency fluctuated and reached about 40 % for brown rust but remained under 5% for yellow rust. For both fungi, sporulation capacity and infection efficiency compensated for each other, but their product, the daily multiplication factor, was greater for yellow rust than for brown rust. Progeny/parent ratio was 3 times greater for yellow rust. Effect of daily multiplication factor variations on epidemic progress was simulated using a simple matrix model. Increase in number of lesions was faster in brown rust than in yellow rust because of a latent period shorter by 2 days. Semi-systemic growth of yellow rust fungus reduced, however, the difference between both fungi when sporulating surface was calculated.     

The Efficacy of Mixtures of Susceptible and Resistant Hosts to Two Wheat Rusts of Different Lesion Size: Controlled Condition Experiments and Computerized Simulations

Controlled-environment experiments and computerized simulations on wheat yellow rust and wheat brown rust epidemics indicated that mixtures of resistant and susceptible hosts controlled parasites with small lesions more effectively than parasites with large lesions. Experiments were conducted on seedlings, during two parasitic cycles. Yellow rust lesions were about 200 times larger than those of brown rust. The measured efficacy of seedling mixtures in reducing disease spread was 22 % for yellow rust and 46 % for brown rust. Computerized simulations suggested that, for a given quantity of inoculum, mixture efficacy was limited for a large-lesion parasite because of fast host-plant saturation.     

季风进退和转换对中国褐飞虱迁飞的影响

利用近30年NCEP/NCAR 逐日气象再分析资料及中国褐飞虱逐候灯诱数据,分析季风指数与褐飞虱迁入量的时空关系,以探明季风进退和转换对我国褐飞虱迁入的影响。研究表明:(1)常年3月中、下旬是我国偏北季风转换为西南季风的时期,西南季风开始后的4月上旬是褐飞虱第1次大规模北迁的时期,第1次大规模北迁的主降区为华南稻区和西南稻区,随后迁向其北的其他稻区。(2)6月中旬-8月中旬是偏南季风指数达最大值的时期,也是各稻区褐飞虱北迁峰次最多、迁入量最集中的时期。(3)8月下旬至9月中旬为偏南季风向偏北季风的转换时期,也是褐飞虱北迁的终见期、南迁的始见期,第1次大规模南迁发生在这一时期内,主降区为江淮稻区和江岭稻区。(4)9月下旬至10月中旬是偏北季风的快速增强期、偏南季风的快速衰退期,也是褐飞虱南迁的高峰期。(5)10月下旬开始偏南季风撤出我国大陆,而偏北季风控制我国大陆,由北到南各稻区依次开始出现褐飞虱迁入的终见期。(6)褐飞虱异常发生年份中西南季风北上的早迟决定了褐飞虱在我国迁入始见期的早晚,而偏北季风南下的早迟则决定了我国褐飞虱迁入终见期的早晚。(7)迁入始见期滞后于西南季风的变化,迁入终见期滞后于偏北季风的变化,它们滞后的时间都为1-3候(即5-15d)。     

Conidiation of Hirsutella thompsonii var. synnematosa in submerged culture

Fourteen monosporal isolates of Hirsutella thompsonii grew vegetatively in various liquid media producing typical phialidic-like conidiophores. Hirsutella thompsonii var. synnematosa from Ivory Coast (HtIC) was the only pathotype which produced true conidia in submerged culture. HtIC began producing conidia after 3 days incubation reaching a peak ranging from 6.8 × 10⁵ to 9.7 × 10⁷ conidia/ml between 6 and 11 days. A concentration of 10 g/liter of corn steep liquor and 0.2% Tween 80 were essential for maximum conidiation. Submerged conidia had a smooth but somewhat rugose conidial walls, whereas aerially formed conidia were distinctly verrucose. Germination of submerged conidia ranged from 5.2 to 12.9% and were virulent causing 32.5% infection to adult citrus rust mites when sprayed on citrus foliage at 1.2 × 10⁹ conidia/ml.     

Interactions of Puccinia hordei and Erysiphe graminis on seedling barley

The development of Puccinia hordei on the first leaf of barley seedlings previously inoculated with Erysiphe graminis was compared with that on uninoculated leaves of comparable age. On cv. Zephyr, more rust pustules developed when leaves were inoculated with both fungi within 24 h but fewer pustules if the period between the two inoculations was longer than 2 days. The reduction in numbers of rust pustules was especially marked where leaves were previously inoculated with many conidia of E. graminis. The size of rust pustules was reduced whatever the period between the two inoculations. Arresting mildew development by applying ethirimol as a soil drench to pots of seedlings inoculated with E. graminis 6 days previously, or floating segments of leaves inoculated with both fungi on 2% sucrose, in part counteracted these effects on rust pustule size. Similar effects were observed with cv. Mazurka where inoculations with E. graminis produced only small necrotic flecks but did induce premature loss of chlorophyll. On this cultivar (in contrast to Zephyr) the inoculation of one leaf surface affected the development of P. hordei on the other. In comparable experiments using Zephyr, E. graminis produced smaller colonies with fewer conidiophores on leaves previously inoculated with P. hordei. These effects could be alleviated by arresting rust development with a spray containing benodanil or by floating segments of leaves inoculated with both fungi on 2% sucrose. Germination of the conidia of E. graminis, formation of appressoria and initiation of colonies were not affected by the presence of P. hordei.     

Patterns of airborne conidia of Stemphylium vesicarium, the causal agent of brown spot disease of pears, in relation to weather conditions

Seven-day volumetric spore samplers were installed in pear orchards of northern Italy, in the years between 1993 and 2002, and operated continuously during the development of brown spot epidemics (mid-April–mid-August), caused by Stemphylium vesicarium. Aerial concentration of conidia was recorded at 2 h intervals to study their diurnal and seasonal patterns and the influence of weather conditions. The diurnal periodicity of aerial conidia showed a peak around midday and low counts in the dark. The increase in spore concentration was significantly correlated with the reduction of relative humidity and wetness in early morning, and the increase of wind in late morning and afternoon. Conidia of S. vesicarium became easily airborne to form a regular component of the air-spora in pear orchards, while ascospores were caught only sporadically. Differences between years concerned total spore counts and numbers of peaks (defined as days with more than 30 conidia/m³ air per day). Periods with highest spore counts occurred in late-May to early-June (in 2 years), mid to end of June (5 years), or after mid-July (3 years). There was a significant correlation between spore peaks and days with favourable weather conditions, defined as days with air temperature between 15 and 25°C and high humidity, particularly a wet period longer than 10 h. Occurrence of one or more consecutive days with favourable weather conditions determined an increase in the airborne concentration of conidia, which usually lasted some days and then decreased.     

Suppression of Rust and Brown Eye Spot Diseases on Coffee by Phosphites and By‐products of Coffee and Citrus Industries

The rust and brown eye spot, caused by Hemileia vastatrix and Cercospora coffeicola, respectively, are the most important fungal diseases on coffee in South America. Their management is mainly by chemical treatment, and there is no genetic resistance to brown eye spot known so far. Considering the need for developing alternative products for their control, the goal of this work was to evaluate the effects of phosphites and by‐products of coffee and citrus industries on rust and brown eye spot. Formulations of coffee and citrus industry by‐products, phosphites and their combination with fungicide were evaluated in field experiments, and their effect on fungal urediniospores and conidia was evaluated in vitro. In the field, treatments were applied individually or in combination and the in vitro assays were performed with manganese phosphite (Reforce Mn), potassium phosphite and citrus industry by‐product (Fortaleza), copper phosphite and coffee industry by‐product (Fitoforce Full), and fungicide. The severity and incidence of rust and brown eye spot on coffee leaves, yield, and leaf retention were evaluated in the field. Percentage of spore germination was evaluated in vitro for both fungi, whereas mycelial growth was evaluated for C. coffeicola only. The treatments Fortaleza, Reforce Mn and Fitoforce Full suppressed both diseases with a reduction in defoliation. In the year 2012, the plants treated with Reforce Mn and Reforce Mn + Fortaleza showed a yield increase of 72 and 88%, respectively, which was similar to the results shown by the fungicide treatment. In vitro inhibition of germination of H. vastatrix urediniospores and of C. coffeicola conidia was observed and suggests that the products exert some toxic effects to both fungi. Finally, the results observed indicate that the combined use of by‐products of plant‐processing industries and phosphites is an alternative and can be added efficiently to the management of coffee diseases.     

Effect of drying on conidial viability of Penicillium frequentans, a biological control agent against peach brown rot disease caused by Moniliniaspp

The effects of drying methods (freeze-, spray-, and fluid bed-drying) on viability of Penicillium frequentans conidia were compared. Viability, estimated by germination of fluid bed- and freeze-dried conidia, was similar to that of fresh conidia. Skimmed milk alone, or in combination with other protectants, was added to conidia before freeze-drying. After the freeze-drying process, all protectants used, except glycerol improved conidial viability. Freeze-dried P. frequentans conidia did not maintain viability after 30 days of storage at room temperature, while conidia dried by fluid bed-drying showed 28% viability following 180 days after drying. This work also demonstrated a relationship between conidial viability after 1 year of storage at room temperature, moisture content after fluid bed-drying and initial weight of sample. Conidial moisture contents must be reduced to 5-15% for optimal storage at room temperature. P. frequentans conidia dried by fluid bed-drying were as effective as fresh conidia in controlling brown rot of peaches.     

Evidence for a differential physiological modulation of brown fat iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase activity in the perinatal period

Brown adipose tissue iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase increases progressively in fetuses from the day 17 of pregnancy on, it reaches peak values on the 20th day of gestation and declines in the last days of fetal life as well as during the first day of life. Birth of premature fetuses causes a sudden drop in the enzyme activity. Postmaturity is associated to a decrease in brown fat 5'-deiodinase similar to that found after birth in fetuses born at term. In the first hours of life brown fat iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase is essentially insensitive to the cold-stimulus. Present data indicates that, differently from adult rats, brown fat iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase activity during the perinatal period is dissociated from the thermogenic activity of the tissue. It is suggested that factors different from the action of the sympathetic nervous system may play a main role in brown fat iodothyronine 5'-deiodinase activity modulation in the fetal and neonatal life.
