Mycelial compatibility of 62 isolates of Valsa malicola from different hosts and areas of Iran were investigated on potato dextrose agar (PDA) and oat meal agar (OMA). Four mycelial compatibility groups (MCGs) on PDA, 1–4, including three single membered (1–3) and a 58 membered (4) were identified. However, 8 MCGs, 1–8, consisting of 6 single membered (1–3, 5, 6 and 8), a 6 membered (4) and a 50 membered (7) were identified on OMA. On PDA, the number of groups and the time to achieve results were less than on OMA as well as the barrage zones were clearer on PDA than OMA. There was no correlation between groups and host or geographical origins of the isolates. The low number of identified MCGs on both culture media revealed low genetic diversity of investigated isolates of V. malicola.  相似文献

Genetic diversity among 27 isolates (23 from chickpea and 4 from other host crops) of Rhizoctonia bataticola representing 11 different states of India was determined by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), internal transcribed spacer restriction fragment length polymorphism (ITS-RFLP) and ITS sequencing. The isolates showed variability in virulence test. Unweighted paired group method with arithmetic average cluster analysis was used to group the isolates into distinct clusters. The clusters generated by RAPD grouped all the isolates into six categories at 40% genetic similarity. High level of diversity was observed among the isolates of different as well as same state. Some of the RAPD (OPN 4, OPN 12, and OPN 20) markers clearly distinguished majority of the isolates into the area specific groups. The ITS I, 5.8rDNA and ITS II regions of 11 isolates representing different RAPD groups were amplified with primers ITS 1 and ITS 4 and digested with seven restriction enzymes. The restriction enzymes DraI, MboI, RsaI, and AluI were found to be suitable for differentiating the isolates into five categories by showing isolate specific ITS-RFLP patterns. The isolates were variable in their nucleotide sequences of the ITS regions. This is the first study on genetic diversity among chickpea isolates of R. bataticola.  相似文献

We developed and characterized primers for 11 variable microsatellite loci present in the genome of the flax rust, Melampsora lini. The microsatellite loci were identified by sequencing clones from a library of EcoRI DNA fragments enriched for four simple sequence repeat motifs (AAG, AAT, TC and TG). All 11 primer pairs successfully amplified DNA fragments from a sample of 102 M. lini isolates (98 isolated from Linum marginale and four from Linum usitatissimum), revealing a total of 32 alleles. Allelic diversity at the 11 loci ranged from 0.030 to 0.449.  相似文献

Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD), inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) profiling were evaluated for assessing the extent of genetic variation among the isolates of Ustilago tritici (Pers.) Rostr., which causes the loose smut disease of wheat.Thirty random decamer primers, six random primer pairs, four SSR primers such as (GACA)4, (GATA)4, (CAA)5 and (GTG)5 and nine combinations of AFLP selective primers were used to characterize nine isolates of the fungus. These isolates were collected from infected earheads of seven commercial wheat cultivars grown at eight different locations in Haryana, which is a major wheat growing state in the North-West Plain Zone of India. The RAPD and ISSR primers generated 21 0 scorable amplified fragments, all of which were monomorphic among the isolates.The AFLP primer combinations generated 239 fragments out of which 193 were polymorphic. All the isolates could be precisely differentiated from each other employing AFLP and grouped into two distinct clusters.The molecular classification partly corresponded with geographic distribution and host origin of the isolates. AFLP profiling was found superior to RAPD and ISSR and can be effectively utilized for further characterization of loose smut pathogen.  相似文献

Seventy isolates of Bacillus thuringiensis were isolated from soil samples collected from cotton fields. These isolates were characterized by randomly amplified poylmorphic DNA (RAPD) markers to determine their genetic diversity pattern based on their source of origin. Different random decamer primers were used for RAPD amplification, which generated a total of 1935 fragments; of these 1865 were polymorphic and 68 monomorphic. The primers OPA03, OPA08, OPD14, OPD19, OPD20, OPE17 and OPD19 produced 100% polymorphic fragments, whereas primers OPC06, OPC20 and OPD17 produced 20, 31 and 17 monomorphic fragments, respectively. When the RAPD banding pattern data was subjected to dendrogram construction, the 70 isolates fell into two separate clusters, cluster I and cluster II, which includes 26 and 44 B. thuringiensis isolates, respectively. These two main clusters were further divided into four subclusters at Eucledian distance of 150 and 80% similarity index. All primers showed amplification and indicated the good diversity of B. thuringiensis isolates. The RAPD pattern showed 4–10 bands per isolate, with MWt in the range of 0.4–3.5 Kb and an average of 193.5 fragments were produced per primer. The primer OPE17 was found to be the most discriminatory as it produced 286 polymorphic bands.  相似文献

 Twenty Pisolithus tinctorius isolates from different geographic locations and different hosts were characterized by the random amplified polymorphic DNA technique. Thirteen arbitrary primers generated 87 DNA fragments, all of them polymorphic. These data were used to calculate genetic distances among the isolates. The pairwise genetic distances ranged from 1 to 100%, with an average of 58.7%. Cluster analysis based on the amplified fragments grouped the isolates according to their host and geographical origins. Group I contained isolates collected in Brazil and group II those collected in the Northern Hemisphere. In addition to the diversity seen at the molecular level, the isolates also showed host specificity. Greenhouse experiments demonstrated that isolates from the Northern Hemisphere colonized mainly Pinus whereas isolates from Brazil colonized only Eucalyptus. The molecular data suggest that the Pisolithus tinctorius isolates analyzed belong to two distinct groups. The data also suggest new guidelines for future investigations on the taxonomy and systematic of this important fungus species. Furthermore, these results support future experiments aimed at the selection and development of improved isolates of P. tinctorius. Accepted: 3 October 1997  相似文献

Genetic diversity of the isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris causing chickpea wilt collected from 12 states representing different agro-ecological regions of India was determined through randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. The UPGMA cluster analysis grouped the isolates into eight categories showing high magnitude of genetic diversity. Each group had the isolates from different states present in various agro-ecological regions of India. Therefore, the groups generated through the RAPD analysis were not corresponding to area of the origin of the isolates. The RAPD primers, namely, OPA 7 and OPA 11 produced Foc specific fragment of ≈1.3 kb and ≈1.4 kb, respectively in all the isolates. These fragments were eluted, purified, cloned in pGEM-T Easy vector and sequenced. Primers were designed with sequence information of these two fragments using primer.3 software. Two sets of sequence characterized amplified region markers (SC-FOC 1 and SC-FOC 2) developed from the sequences of these fragments were found to be specific to Foc and produced an amplicon of 1.3 and 1.4 kb, respectively. These set of markers were validated against the isolates of the pathogen collected from different locations of India representing various races of the pathogen. They are non-specific to the other Fusarium species, Rhizoctonia solani and R. bataticola.  相似文献

Abstract

Phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) can convert insoluble form of phosphorous (P) to an available form which is a major concern in Indian agriculture. In this study, 21 isolates having phosphate solubilizing capability were isolated from different regions of Lucknow, India. Among all, six efficient PSB were confirmed by using in vitro P estimation and 16S rRNA universal primers. The similarity detection was done using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) finger printing for genotyping the PSB isolates and to determine genetic relatedness between them. Twenty different OPA primers were tested among which four primers produced prominent, highly reproducible, and polymorphic bands. An average of 10.5 polymorphic bands per primer with the amplified DNA fragments ranging from 200 to 2000?bp in size. A dendrogram constructed from these data indicated 25–76% homology. Highest similarity was found in between Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus cereus with 33.8% similarity while least dissimilarity was found in B. anthracis and Pseudomonas fragi with 12% of similarity. These findings provide that there is a great genetic diversity between bacterial isolates from different geographical regions and RAPD can be used as a specific, time consuming and also proves as a reliable molecular tool which helps in strain level discrimination.  相似文献

Genetic variation among the isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris, the causal agent of chickpea wilt worldwide, was analysed using pathogenicity tests and molecular markers – random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and inter‐simple sequence repeat (ISSR) polymorphism. Hundred and eight isolates were obtained from diseased chickpea plants in 13 different provinces of Turkey, out of which 74 isolates were assessed using 30 arbitrary decamer primers and 20 ISSR primers. Unweighted pair‐grouped method by arithmetic average cluster analysis of RAPD, ISSR and RAPD + ISSR datasets provided a substantially similar discrimination among Turkish isolates and divided into three major groups. Group 1, 2 and 3 consisted of 41, 18 and 15 isolates, respectively. These methods revealed a considerable genetic variation among Turkish isolates, but no correlation with regard to the clustering of isolates from different geographic regions. Analysis of molecular variance confirmed that most genetic variability resulted from the differences among isolates within regions. Our results also indicated that the low‐genetic differentiation (FST) and high gene flow (Nm) among populations had a significant effect on the emergence and evolutionary development of F. oxysporum f. sp. ciceris. This is the first report on genetic diversity and population structure of F. oxysporum isolates on chickpea in Turkey.  相似文献

Bacterial blight (BB) caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is a major disease of rice in the tropics for which genetic resistance in the host plants is the only effective solution. This study aimed at identification of resistance gene combinations effective against Xoo isolates and fingerprinting of the Xoo isolates of Andaman Islands (India). Here, we report the reaction of 21 rice BB differentials possessing Xa1 to Xa21 genes individually and in different combinations to various isolates of pathogen collected from Andaman Islands. Pathological screening results of 14 isolates revealed that among individual genes tested across 2 years, Xa4, Xa7 and Xa21 conferred resistance reaction across all isolates, whereas among combinations, IRBB 50 (Xa4 + xa5), IRBB 52 (Xa4 + Xa21) and IRBB 60 (Xa4 + xa5 + xa13 + Xa21) conveyed effective resistance against tested isolates. The nature of genetic diversity among four isolates selected on the basis of geographical isolation in the islands was studied through DNA finger printing. The RAPD primers S111, S119, S1117, S1109, S1103, S109 and S105 were found to be better indicators of molecular diversity among isolates than JEL primers. The diversity analysis grouped 14 isolates into three major clusters based on disease reaction wherein isolate no. 8 was found the most divergent as well as highly virulent. The remaining isolates were classified into two distinct groups. The importance of the study in the context of transfer of resistance gene(s) in the local cultivars specifically for tropical island conditions is presented and discussed.  相似文献

One hundred twenty isolates of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides from avocado (6 U.S. and 57 Israeli isolates) and almond (57 Israeli isolates) fruits were compared by various molecular methods and a pathogenicity assay in order to determine the genetic diversity and host specificity between and among the different populations. DNA from eight additional U.S. almond anthracnose isolates were also compared. PCR amplification of genomic DNA with four primers produced uniform banding patterns for all the Israeli almond isolates from different geographic locations in Israel. DNAs from the U.S. almond isolates were distinct from DNAs of the Israeli isolates. In contrast, the avocado isolates from Israel and the United States were more diverse, with numerous arbitrarily primed-PCR phenotypes being observed. HaeIII digestion patterns of A+T-rich DNA distinguished between the almond and avocado isolates. Southern hybridization of the repetitive nuclear-DNA element GcpR1 to PstI-digested genomic DNA of almond and avocado isolates revealed no polymorphic fragments among the almond isolates, whereas polymorphic fragments were observed among the avocado isolates. Amplification and subsequent restriction enzyme digestion of the internal transcribed spacer 4 and 5 regions between the small and large nuclear subunits of DNA encoding rRNA failed to distinguish between C. gloeosporioides isolates from a diverse host range. In artificial inoculations, avocado isolates produced various lesions on avocado and almond fruits, whereas the almond isolates infected both fruits at a lower rate.  相似文献

Genotypic Diversity among Brazilian Isolates of Sclerotium rolfsii   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Thirty isolates of Sclerotium rolfsii Sacc. from different hosts and regions of Brazil were studied in relation to morphology, mycelial compatibility, analysis of genomic DNA through random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), variation within the nuclear rDNA [internal transcribed spacers (ITS)] and sequencing of ITS fragments. There was considerable variability among isolates in relation to the number, size and location of sclerotia on the medium surface. Thirteen mycelial compatibility groups (MCG) were identified among 23 isolates. Seven isolates were only self‐compatible. With the exception of group 3, where all the isolates came from soybean, there was no apparent correlation between group and isolate origin. On the basis of RAPD profiles, 11 haplotypes (A to K) were identified. There was an association between the RAPD groups and MCG. Haplotypes A, B, D, G, I and K belonged to MCG groups 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, respectively. All other RAPD haplotypes contained incompatible isolates. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification with primers 4R and 5F amplified two fragments containing ITS1, ITS2 and 5.8 S rDNA sequences, that were present in all isolates, with molecular sizes of 739 and 715 bp. Restriction analysis of PCR products showed that the two fragments had sequence divergency which is referred to as ‘ITS types’. Four arbitrarily chosen soybean isolates (2, 6, 7 and 23) and two non‐soybean isolates (11 and 22) were used to investigate the variation within the ITS sequence and its role in the phylogeny. The strict consensus of nine most‐parsimonious trees inferred from the data set which included six isolates of S. rolfsii, four of which have two different ‘ITS types’, showed three well‐supported groupings. The neighbour‐joining tree inferred from the data set also showed three major clades as did the parsimony tree. The major difference was that in the neighbour‐joining tree the ‘ITS type’ 11 was resolved and grouped in one clade. These results show that the ‘ITS types’ within isolates are almost always phylogenetically distinct. There was no clear correlation between ITS‐based phylogeny and isolate origin.  相似文献

The necrotrophic fungus Thanatephorus cucumeris (anamorph Rhizoctonia solani) is among the most important soil‐borne pathogens which causes tomato foot and root rot worldwide. We investigated virulence and genetic relationships among and within different taxonomic groups of R. solani from the tomato‐growing regions in the north‐east of Iran. Characterization of R. solani taxonomic groups revealed that, of 56 isolates, four were AG‐2‐1, 16 were AG‐3 PT, 21 were AG‐4 HG‐I and 15 were AG‐4 HG‐II. Because interprimer binding site (iPBS), which is based on amplification of retrotransposons, is known as novel and powerful DNA fingerprinting technology, we selected four iPBS primers, which can detect polymorphisms of tomato foot root and root rot pathogen, for investigating genotypic variability of the isolates. The iPBS analyses separated various taxonomic groups of R. solani and showed great diversity among the isolates, demonstrating that the R. solani isolates obtained from tomato were not a clonal population. Crop rotation strategies and geographic location seem to be important factors affecting genetic structure of the isolates. Pathogenicity tests on tomato cultivar ‘Mobil’ showed significant differences in the virulence of various isolates. The overall results indicated that isolates of AG‐3 and AG‐4 were more virulent than AG‐2‐1. There was no significant correlation between genetic diversity and virulence of the isolates. This is the first report of R. solani AG‐4 HG‐II, causing tomato foot and root rot. Also, our research is the first in assessment of genetic diversity in fungal populations using iPBS molecular markers.  相似文献

Genetic variation among Sclerotinia sclerotiorum isolates from different regions and host plants were investigated using pathogenicity test, mycelial compatibility groups (MCGs) and molecular markers. Six MCGs were identified and significant differences of virulence variability were observed within and among MCGs. Cluster analysis of combined repetitive sequence-based polymerase chain reaction and randomly amplified polymorphic DNA data discriminated 12 isolates into 11 genotypes, indicating high level of genetic polymorphism among tested isolates. Twelve isolates clustered into four major groups corresponding to their hosts andgeographical region. The variability found within closely related isolates of S.sclerotiorum indicated that such morphological and molecular markers are useful in population studies of this pathogen.  相似文献

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) bands that distinguish Meloidogyne hapla and M. chitwoodi from each other, and from other root-knot nematode species, were identified using a series of random octamer primers. The species-specific amplified DNA fragments were cloned and sequenced, and then the sequences were used to design 20-mer primer pairs that specifically amplified a DNA fragment from each species. Using the primer pairs, successful amplifications from single juveniles were readily attained. A mixture of four primers in a single PCR reaction mixture was shown to identify single juveniles of M. hapla and M. chitwoodi. To confirm specificity, the primers were used to amplify DNA from several isolates of M. hapla that originated from different crops and locations in North America and also from isolates of M. chitwoodi that differed in host range. In characterizing the M. hapla isolates, it was noted that there was a mitochondrial DNA polymorphism among isolates for cleavage by the restriction endonuclease DraI.  相似文献

Shot hole disease is one of the most important diseases of stone fruit trees in Iran. The disease is wide spread among orchards of Prunus spp. During spring and summer of 2007, 80 monoconidial isolates of the pathogen were recovered from infected leaves, fruits and twigs of different Prunus spp. in West Azerbaijan, Tehran, Ghazvin and Razavi Khorasan provinces of Iran and were studied taxonomically. Based on morphological and physiological characteristics and growth optimal temperature, all isolates were identified as Wilsonomyces carpophilus. Seedlings of stone fruits (apricot, almond, peach, nectarine, plum, sweet cherry and sour cherry) were used for pathogenicity tests. All seedlings were susceptible to the fungal isolates and showed disease symptoms on twigs, leaves, buds and petioles. Genetic diversity of 28 selected fungal isolates was investigated based on DNA fingerprinting by random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR), using four random primers. Based on cluster analysis of the PCR results from the four primers, 10 fingerprinting groups (clonal lineages) and 27 haplotypes were identified. Clonal lineages “C”, “D” and “E”, each with six haplotypes formed the biggest clonal lineages, but other clonal lineages (“B”, “F”, “G”, “H”, “I” and “J”) included only one isolate. No correlation was detected among clonal lineages with the location of selected isolates and their host species. A correlation was found between the substrate (fruit, twig or leaf) and clonal lineages, particularly in “C” clonal lineage. The results showed that the fungus population had high genetic diversity which is distributed among the different areas of Iran.  相似文献

Aflatoxin contamination is a major problem in maize, groundnut, chillies, cotton and tree nuts. These aflatoxins are low molecular weight toxic and carcinogenic secondary metabolites produced by Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus and A. nomius. In the present study, a total of 11 isolates of A. flavus isolated from groundnut, maize and chilli collected from different locations of Tamil Nadu, India were tested for their ability to produce aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in vitro by indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The results show that the isolates vary in their level of toxin production. The amount of AFB1 produced by the toxigenic isolates of A. flavus ranged from 6.6 to 108.1?ng?ml?1. Among the various isolates of A. flavus, the isolate VKR produced the highest amount (108.1?ng?ml?1) of AFB1. The isolates viz. CBE1, CBE2, BSR1, BSR3 and BSR4 were found to be non-toxigenic. The genetic variability among these isolates was assessed by Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. DNA fragments of between 0.15 and 3.0?kb were obtained using 13 random primers, and each isolate differed in the size and number of PCR products indicating considerable polymorphism. Cluster analysis using Unweighted Pair Group Method with Arithmetic Mean clearly separated the isolates into four main clusters confirming the genetic diversity among the isolates of A. flavus. Both toxigenic and non-toxigenic isolates were intermingled in these four groups, indicating that no relationship exists between RAPD profile and the production of aflatoxin by A. flavus.  相似文献

Randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis and the PCR assay were used in combination with dilution plating on a semiselective medium to detect and enumerate propagules of Trichoderma hamatum 382, a biocontrol agent utilized in compost-amended mixes. Distinct and reproducible fingerprints were obtained upon amplification of purified genomic DNA of T. hamatum 382 with the random primers OPE-16, OPH-19, and OPH-20. Three amplified DNA fragments of 0.35 (OPE-160.35), 0.6 (OPH-190.6), and 0.65 (OPH-200.65) kb were diagnostic for T. hamatum 382, clearly distinguishing it from 53 isolates of four other Trichoderma spp. tested. Some isolates of T. hamatum shared these low-molecular-weight fragments with T. hamatum 382. However, RAPD analysis of isolates of T. hamatum with all three random primers used in consecutive PCR tests distinguished T. hamatum 382 from other isolates of T. hamatum. These three RAPD amplicons were cloned and sequenced, and pairs of oligonucleotide primers for each cloned fragment were designed. Use of the primers in the PCR assay resulted in the amplification of DNA fragments of the same size as the cloned RAPD fragments from genomic DNA of T. hamatum 382. A combination of dilution plating on a semiselective medium for Trichoderma spp. and PCR, with the RAPD primers OPH-19, OPE-16, and OPH-20 or the three sequence-characterized primers, was used successfully to verify the presence of T. hamatum 382 propagules in nine different soil, compost, and potting mix samples. All 23 Trichoderma isolates recovered on semiselective medium from commercial potting mixes fortified with T. hamatum 382 were identified as T. hamatum 382, whereas 274 Trichoderma isolates recovered from the other nine samples were negative in the PCR assay. Thus, this highly specific combination of techniques allowed detection and enumeration of propagules of T. hamatum 382 in fortified compost-amended potting mixes. Sequence-characterized amplified region markers also facilitated the development of a very simple procedure to amplify DNA of T. hamatum 382 directly from fortified compost-amended potting mixes.  相似文献

Discula umbrinella, a fungal endophyte of oak species, colonizes and reproduces on leaves of Quercus alba and Q. rubra in forest ecosystems. Twenty-nine isolates collected from leaves of both oak species (16 from Q. alba and 13 from Q. rubra) were assayed for oak species preference and genetic variation based on primer-specific polymerase chain reactions for the intergenic spacer region (IGS) of ribosomal DNA. DNA sequencing of the polymerase chain reaction products revealed a 10-bp insertion (237–247 bp) at the 3′ end of the IGS region present in nine isolates and absent in 20 of the isolates. Phylogenetic analysis of the IGS region using the neighbor-joining method identified IGS groups (groups I–V) based on single nucleotide sequence differences. Host selectivity and geographic origin of isolates were correlated in some instances with the IGS groups. Isolates within each IGS group were further analyzed for nucleotide polymorphisms to confirm genotype identity and genotype diversity. Ten different genotypes (Va–Vj) were identified among the isolates analyzed. Genotype diversity was greatest in IGS groups I, IV, and V. Seventy percent of the genotypes (Vc, Vd, Ve, Vf, Vg,Vi, and Vj) contained isolates with single tree species preferences.  相似文献

Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceris (Foc) is the most important soilborne disease of chickpea in the Sudan and many other countries. A total of 76 Foc isolates from six different chickpea‐growing states in the Sudan have been collected in this study to investigate the genetic diversity of Sudanese Foc isolates. Additional 14 Foc isolates from Syria and Lebanon were included in this study. All isolates were characterized using four random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), three simple sequence repeats (SSR), five sequence‐characterized amplified region (SCAR) primers and three specific Foc genome primers. Based on the similarity coefficient, the results indicated two major clusters included seven subclusters. The isolates from the Sudan were grouped as identified as races 0, 2 and unknown races. The isolates from Syria and Lebanon were grouped together as they identified as races 1B/C and 6, respectively. This study identified a new race Foc (race 0) in the Sudan. The results of this study will be useful for breeders to design effective resistance breeding program in chickpea in the Sudan.  相似文献
