Rhizosphere mycoflora of healthy and yellow vein mosaic virus infected okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) plants.

Investigations on the rhizosphere mycoflora of healthy and virus (YVMV) infected okra plants showed a higher fungal population in the rhizosphere of healthy plants at preflowering and post-flowering stages than in that of diseased ones. Maximum population was observed during flowering both in healthy and diseased plant rhizosphere as well as in non-rhizosphere soil. However, virus infected plants showed a higher population at the flowering stage than healthy ones. The quantitative differences in the rhizosphere of healthy and diseased plants during flowering seem to be due to a change in C/N ratio and amino acids. The drastic reduction in diseased plant rhizospheres during the post-flowering stage may be due to either change in C/N ratio unfavourable to mycoflora or production of some toxic substances inhibiting multiplication of the mycoflora.     

Effect of foliar spray of hormones on the rhizosphere mycoflora of leguminous weeds

Summary The effect of the foliar spray of two hormonesviz indole acetic acid and gibberellic acid on the rhizosphere mycoflora ofCassia tora L. andCrotalaria medicaginea Lamk., two leguminous weeds, has been studied at different stages of growth of the plants. Three sprays of the aqueous solutions of the hormones were made from the seedling stage onwards and, in all, five samplings of the rhizospheres were made. Estimation of the mycoflora was made by the dilution plate method as described in the text, using dextrose-peptone-agar-rose bengal medium. Statistically significant increase in the total number of fungi was observed in the rhizosphere of sprayed plants. With regard to the total number of species, there was no significant difference between the treated and control plants. It has been concluded that the stimulation of the rhizosphere mycoflora on foliar application of hormones might be due to the enhanced sporulation of fungi in the rhizosphere effected by the exudation of stimulatory factors from the roots.Part of doctoral thesis, Banaras Hindu University (1966).     

Effect of certain chemical fertilizers on the rhizosphere mycoflora ofOryza sativa linn

The present paper deals with the study of the effect of potassium fertilizer (Potassium sulphate) on rhizosphere mycoflora ofOryza sativa. The fertilization improves the microbial activity both in rhizosphere and nonrhizosphere regions. 40 lbs/acre dose of the fertilizer proved best for paddy growth and rhizosphere fungal poulation. The highest fungal population was recorded at the time of flowering of the plants.     

黑胫病感染对烟草茎秆及根际土壤真菌群落结构的影响

烟草黑胫病是由寄生疫霉烟草变种引起的一种对烟草生产造成巨大经济损失的土传病害。本文以健康烟株与感染黑胫病烟株茎秆和根际土壤为研究对象,通过PCR技术扩增样本中真菌转录间隔区的ITS1区域,采用Illumina Miseq高通量测序技术对扩增片段进行测序,旨在了解黑胫病感染对于烟草茎秆和根际土壤真菌群落结构与多样性的影响。本研究20个测序样品,共获得755 599条高质量序列片段,最短序列为200bp,最长序列为356bp,平均序列长度248bp。结果表明,健康烟株和发病烟株根际土壤的优势真菌为子囊菌门Ascomycota、接合菌门Zygomycota和担子菌门Basidiomycota,所有茎秆样品的优势真菌为子囊菌门、担子菌门。健康烟株与感染黑胫病烟株根际土壤样品相对丰度大于1%的属有镰刀菌属Fusarium、被孢霉属Mortierella、隐球菌属Cryptococcus、链格孢属Alternaria和赤霉菌属Gibberella等,其中,健康烟株根际土壤优势属为镰刀菌属（39.35%）和被孢霉属（14.19%）,发病烟株根际土壤镰刀菌属和被孢霉属相对丰度分别为40.26%和20.77%;健康茎秆样品优势属为隐球菌属（31.12%）、链格孢属（18.28%）、镰刀菌属（15.67%）和红酵母属Rhodotorula（13.34%）;病健交界茎秆样品优势属为镰刀菌属（41.36%）、隐球菌属（28.15%）和链格孢属（22.32%）;发病茎秆优势属为隐球菌属（62.14%）和链格孢属（27.75%）。烟株感染黑胫病后,其根际土壤与茎秆样品真菌优势属种类与健康烟株无明显变化,但属水平的相对丰度变化显著。发病烟株茎秆与根际土壤样品真菌群落Sobs、Chao1、Shannon指数较健康烟株降低,Simpson指数上升,表明烟株发病后根际土壤真菌与茎秆内生真菌群落丰富度与多样性降低。该结果对于研究烟草黑胫病发生的微生态机制及其生物防治具有一定的理论指导意义。     

Carica papaya MicroRNAs Are Responsive to Papaya meleira virus Infection

MicroRNAs are implicated in the response to biotic stresses. Papaya meleira virus (PMeV) is the causal agent of sticky disease, a commercially important pathology in papaya for which there are currently no resistant varieties. PMeV has a number of unusual features, such as residence in the laticifers of infected plants, and the response of the papaya to PMeV infection is not well understood. The protein levels of 20S proteasome subunits increase during PMeV infection, suggesting that proteolysis could be an important aspect of the plant defense response mechanism. To date, 10,598 plant microRNAs have been identified in the Plant miRNAs Database, but only two, miR162 and miR403, are from papaya. In this study, known plant microRNA sequences were used to search for potential microRNAs in the papaya genome. A total of 462 microRNAs, representing 72 microRNA families, were identified. The expression of 11 microRNAs, whose targets are involved in 20S and 26S proteasomal degradation and in other stress response pathways, was compared by real-time PCR in healthy and infected papaya leaf tissue. We found that the expression of miRNAs involved in proteasomal degradation increased in response to very low levels of PMeV titre and decreased as the viral titre increased. In contrast, miRNAs implicated in the plant response to biotic stress decreased their expression at very low level of PMeV and increased at high PMeV levels. Corroborating with this results, analysed target genes for this miRNAs had their expression modulated in a dependent manner. This study represents a comprehensive identification of conserved miRNAs inpapaya. The data presented here might help to complement the available molecular and genomic tools for the study of papaya. The differential expression of some miRNAs and identifying their target genes will be helpful for understanding the regulation and interaction of PMeV and papaya.

Positive correlation between VAM-induced changes in root exudation and mycorrhizosphere mycoflora

The influence of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi on rhizosphere mycoflora was studied together with the possible mechanism involved in this process. Six combinations of VAM fungi and phosphorus fertilizer treatments were applied to Leucaena leucocephala roots and quantitative and qualitative observations were made periodically of the rhizosphere mycoflora and constituents of root exudates. The results obtained indicate that the presence of specific mycoflora in the rhizosphere of mycrorrhizal roots is mediated through root exudates rather than being an outcome of improved P nutrition.     

Effect of soil amendement with root extract ofhibiscus cannabinus L. on its rhizosphere mycoflora

Summary Rhizosphere mycoflora ofH. cannabinus was studied in potted condition after its root extract obtained from two month old plants. Isolations of fungi from the root regions were done at the interval of 15 days by dilution plate method. Estimation of fungi/g dry soil showed a negative rhizosphere effect. A higher number of fungal species was recorded in the treated non-rhizosphere as compared to their number in the rhizosphere. Qalitative analysis of the fungal flora was done and the variation was recorded. Root extract was analysed by paper chromatography. Altogether 7 amino acids and 3 sugars were detected.

The effect of barley yellow dwarf virus on the amino acid composition of spring wheat

Leaf extracts of barley yellow dwarf virus-infected and healthy spring wheat (cv. Highbury) plants at three growth stages were analysed by gas liquid chromatog-raphy to determine their free amino acid content. Eleven free amino acids were identified. Virus infection increased the total amino acid content of sampled leaves at each growth stage but more so at the later stages. Alanine and glutamine were consistently present in greater amounts in infected than in healthy leaves at all three growth stages.

水稻细菌性条斑病发生对水稻根际土壤微生物群落碳代谢多样性的影响

为了解水稻在水稻条斑病发生的不同病理期水稻根际土壤微生物的群落结构和功能多样性,以对水稻条斑病抗性不同的两个水稻品种CG2和IR24为对象,利用Biolog-ECO对两个品种条斑病未发生的分蘖期和条斑病发生的孕穗期水稻根际土壤进行碳代谢多样性分析,表明两个水稻品种健康期的总碳源利用强度高于发病期,对各碳源的利用均明显高于孕穗期。抗性品种CG2健康期根际土壤的微生物群落比发病期根际土壤的Shannon指数、Simpson指数和McIntos指数分别提高7.184%、54.568%和45.792%;感病品种IR24健康期根际土壤的微生物群落结构比发病期根际土壤的Shannon指数、Simpson指数和McIntos指数分别提高4.646%、33.279%和41.134%。通过主成分分析和聚类分析表明,两个水稻材料的不同生理期根际土壤微生物的碳源利用发生了改变,氨基酸类、糖类和酸类碳源是区分水稻不同病理期的敏感碳源。水稻大面积条斑病发生的孕穗期相对于条斑病尚未发生的分蘖期,根际土壤微生物的碳源利用有所改变,微生物群落结构多样性和功能多样性降低。     

Rhizosphere mycoflora of wheat after foliar application of chlorocholine chloride,urea and 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid

A single-step spraying of wheat during shooting under field conditions with solutions of CCC (chlorocholine chloride), CCC and urea, CCC and Aminex (ammonium salt of 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid), or CCC, urea and Aminex caused changes both in numbers and composition of the rhizosphere mycoflora. The numbers both in the rhizosphere of differently treated plants and in the free soil decreased during vegetation. A more pronounced effect in the number of fungi was demonstrated in plants treated only with CCC. The difference was more considerable during first 10 days after the spray. As far as the relative occurrence of individual genera in the rhizosphere soil is concerned, fungi of the generaPenicillium Link ex Fr.,Fusarium Link ex Fr.,Verticillium Nees andTrichoderma Pers were most influenced after the treatment with the used agents.     

Effect of certain chemical fertilizers on the rhizosphere myco-flora of Oryza sativa - I

In the present study an attempt has been made to understand the effect of Ammonium nitrate and Urea on the rhizosphere mycoflora ofOryza sativa. The fertilizers' application to pot-soil planted with the paddy increased the microfungal population both in rhoizsphere and nonrhizosphere regions. Certain fungal species were stimulated by the fertilizers. 80 lbs/acre of amm. nitrate was most favourable for rhizosphere fungi where as 60 lbs/acre of urea proved the best.     

Das Verhalten einiger pilzlicher Antagonisten in der Rhizosphäre resistenter und anfälliger Gewächshaustomaten

Action of some fungal antagonists in the rhizosphere of resistant and susceptible tomato plants in the greenhouse The quantitative presence of the rhizospheric mycoflora fungi: Aspergillus alutaceus, Paecilomyces lilacinus, Penicillium herquei, P. nigricans and Trichoderma viride known for its antagonistic action to many pathogens is essentially differentiated in the two cultivars – the sensitive ‘Early pack’ and the resistant to tracheomycosis ‘GC 204′. It seems that the presence of the cultivar ‘GC 204’ favours the growth of these fungi. The first establishment of the fungi Penicillium chrysogenum and P. funiculosum, which are isolated from both cultivars, in the ‘Early pack’ rhizosphere might facilitate the colonization of this zone by the above mentioned antagonist which is not favoured by the sensitive cultivar. Such a changein the rhizospheric mycoflora of the sensitive cultivar may introduce some resistant to soil borne fungi diseases and open new perspectives of the biological control of these diseases.     

A single amino acid of niapro of papaya ringspot virus determines host specificity for infection of papaya

Most strains of Papaya ringspot virus (PRSV) belong to type W, causing severe loss on cucurbits worldwide, or type P, devastating papaya in tropical areas. While the host range of PRSV W is limited to plants of the families Chenopodiaceae and Cucuribitaceae, PRSV P, in addition, infects plants of the family Caricaceae (papaya family). To investigate one or more viral genetic determinants for papaya infection, recombinant viruses were constructed between PRSV P-YK and PRSV W-CI. Host reactions to recombinant viruses indicated that the viral genomic region covering the C-terminal region (142 residues) of NIaVPg, full NIaPro, and N-terminal region (18 residues) of NIb, is critical for papaya infection. Sequence analysis of this region revealed residue variations at position 176 of NIaVPg and positions 27 and 205 of NIaPro between type P and W viruses. Host reactions to the constructed mutants indicated that the amino acid Lys27 of NIaPro determines the host-specificity of PRSV for papaya infection. Predicted three-dimensional structures of NIaPros of parental viruses suggested that Lys27 does not affect the protease activity of NIaPro. Recovery of the infected plants from certain papaya-infecting mutants implied involvement of other viral factors for enhancing virulence and adaptation of PRSV on papaya.

Influence of cocksfoot streak virus on the growth of cocksfoot swards

Small experimental swards of three types-healthy, 50% and 100% streak-virus-infected-were established from single tillers of randomly selected cocksfoot genotypes. In these swards 44% of infected plants died within 2 years compared with 21% of healthy plants. Mortality of infected plants was not increased by the presence of healthy plants in the same sward. In swards containing both healthy and infected plants, increased growth of healthy plants compensated for the low yield of infected ones only when the swards were frequently defoliated. Infrequent cutting apparently allowed infected plants to check the growth of healthy ones, and 50% infected swards yielded little more than 100% infected swards. This difference in response was attributed to differences in the growth habits of healthy and infected plants. Few initially healthy plants became infected during 2 years of the experiment.
