Sporisorium reilianum f. sp. zeae is the causal agent of head smut of maize. Although the main symptom of this disease is the formation of a black fungal sorus on the reproductive parts of the maize, the infection always occurs via the roots. Early infection stages are characterised by a hyphal proliferation of the fungus around the roots. In this paper, we describe effects of a fraction extracted from maize root exudates on growth of S. reilianum f. sp. zeae. The fungus grew as a yeast form on artificial medium, but in presence of these fractions, some yeasts switched to a hyphal form. In addition, an increased proliferation of the yeast form was also observed with exudates from a variety of maize susceptible to head smut. In the presence of exudates obtained from a tolerant variety of maize, proliferation of the yeast form was inhibited, whereas the induction of yeast-hypha transition was always observed. These results indicated that some molecules in root exudates could play a role in the pre-infectious stage between maize and S. reilianum f. sp. zeae. 相似文献

Summary A cytological study was carried out to describe the initial steps of infection of maize roots by the soil fungusSporisorium reilianum f. sp.zeae. Morphogenetic changes of the fungal cells were induced in the presence of maize roots. Extensive hyphal growth led to the formation of a thick fungal layer colonising the maize root surface. This structure is original in interactions of members of the family Ustilaginaceae with plants. In the thick fungal layer, we observed fimbriae inserted into the host cell wall, suggesting a direct role of these fibrillar structures in cell adhesion and infection processes. During infection, no reaction of host cells was observed. In this way, the fungus acts as a biotrophic endophyte during the initial steps of infection. 相似文献

The biological cycle of Sporisorium reilianum f.sp. zeae: an overview using microscopy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Sporisorium reilianum f.sp. zeae is the causal agent of maize head smut. Using microscopy, we describe the development of the fungus during its saprophytic and parasitic phase. When compatible, the yeast forms fused to produce dicaryotic hyphae. These hyphae were infectious and penetrated the maize in the root. Surprisingly, the formation of conjugation tubes was rarely observed in vitro. In contrast, extensive development of long hyphae was observed from the haploid form of the yeast, these hyphae being able to fuse when arising from compatible strains. In planta, the fungus acted as a biotrophic endophyte until sporogenesis, which occurred in the floral meristem of the maize. The symptoms of the infection were reduced. Penetration in the root was never accompanied by drastic damage of the host cell and we did not observe thickening or apposition of plant material to reinforce the wall structure. Moreover, the fungus was embedded in an amorphous matrix and thus appeared isolated from the host cell. In the floral meristem, radical changes were observed, the host cell was totally invaded by the fungus in the course of sporogenesis. The deposits observed on the fungal wall are likely related to the echinulation of the teliospores. 相似文献

Sporisorium reilianum f.sp. zeae, the causal agent of head smut, infects the roots of the maize plantlets. Little information is available concerning the development of the fungus in soil, although this saprophytic phase is an important part of the life cycle. This paper reports that water potential also affects hyphal induction, and this effect on the fungus may influence disease transmission. In response to a decrease in water potential from 0 to –1.52 MPa in presence of variable molecular weight polyethylene glycols, haploid hyphae develop from the haploid yeast. Hyphal extension is fastest at low water potentials (–1.2 MPa) controlled with high molecular weight polyethylene glycols, PEG-3350 and PEG-8000. Formation of parasitic dikaryotic hyphae following fusion between haploid hyphae was possible at low water potential (–1.2 MPa) and was not inhibited by water stress. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that the effects of low soil water potential on yeast–hyphal transition and hyphal growth facilitate the convergence of compatible haploid strains, and that this may increase disease severity. 相似文献

QTL mapping of resistance to Sporisorium reiliana in maize 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

We mapped and characterized quantitative trait loci (QTL) for resistance to Sporisorium reiliana. A population of 220 F3 families produced from the cross of two European elite inbreds (D32, D145) was evaluated with two replications at a French
location with high natural incidence of S. reiliana and at a Chinese location employing artificial inoculation. The 220 F3 families were genotyped with 87 RFLP and seven SSR markers. Using composite interval mapping, we identified two different
sets of 3 and 8 QTL for the French and the Chinese locations explaining 13% and 44% of respectively. Individual QTL explained
up to 14% of σ^2
p. The 11 QTL mapped to eight maize chromosomes and displayed mostly additive or partial dominant gene action. Significant
digenic epistatic interactions were detected for one pair of these QTL. Only a few QTL for S. reiliana were in common with QTL for resistance to Ustilago maydis and Puccinia sorghi, identified at a German location for the same population. Consequently, in our materials resistance to these three fungal
pathogens of maize seems to be inherited independently.

The basic prerequisite for an efficient breeding program to improve levels of resistance to pathogens in plants is the identification of genes controlling the resistance character. If the response to pathogens is under the control of a multilocus system, the utilization of molecular markers becomes essential. Stalk and ear rot caused by Gibberella zeae is a widespread disease of corn: resistance to G. zeae is quantitatively inherited. Our experimental approach to understanding the genetic basis of resistance to Gibberella is to estimate the genetic linkage between available molecular markers and the character, measured as the amount of diseased tissue 40 days after inoculation of a suspension of Fusarium graminearum, the conidial form of G. zeae, into the first stalk internode. Sensitive and resistant parental inbreds were crossed to obtain F1 and F2 populations: the analysis of the segregation of 95 RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism) clones and 10 RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) markers was performed on a population of 150 F2 individuals. Analysis of resistance was performed on the F3 families obtained by selfing the F2 plants. Quantitative trait loci (QTL) detection was based either on analysis of regression coefficients between family mean value and allele values in the F2 population, or by means of interval mapping, using MAPMAKER-QTL. A linkage map of maize was obtained, in which four to five genomic regions are shown to carry factors involved in the resistance to G. zeae. 相似文献

Microarray analysis of large-scale temporal and tissue-specific plant gene expression changes occurring during a susceptible plant-pathogen interaction revealed different gene expression profile changes in cotton root and hypocotyl tissues. In hypocotyl tissues infected with Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum, increased expression of defense-related genes was observed, whereas few changes in the expression levels of defense-related genes were found in infected root tissues. In infected roots, more plant genes were repressed than were induced, especially at the earlier stages of infection. Although many known cotton defense responses were identified, including induction of pathogenesis-related genes and gossypol biosynthesis genes, potential new defense responses also were identified, such as the biosynthesis of lignans. Many of the stress-related gene responses were common to both tissues. The repression of drought-responsive proteins such as aquaporins in both roots and hypocotyls represents a previously unreported response of a host to pathogen attack that may be specific to vascular wilt diseases. Gene expression results implicated the phytohormones ethylene and auxin in the disease process. Biochemical analysis of hormone level changes supported this observation. 相似文献

Digital gene expression analysis of gastrointestinal helminth resistance in Scottish blackface lambs
Digital gene expression (DGE) analysis offers a route to gene discovery which by-passes the need to develop bespoke arrays for nonmodel species, and is therefore a potentially valuable tool for molecular ecologists. Scottish blackface sheep, which vary in resistance to the common abomasal parasitic nematode Teladorsagia circumcincta, were trickle-infected with L3 larvae over 3 months to mimic the natural progression of infection. DGE was performed on abomasal lymph node tissue after the resolution of infection in resistant animals. Susceptible (low resistance) animals showed a large number of differentially expressed genes associated with inflammation and cell activation, but generally few differentially regulated genes in either the susceptible or the resistant group were directly involved in the adaptive immune function. Our results are consistent with the hypothesis that both resistance and susceptibility are active responses to infection and that susceptibility is associated with dysfunction in T cell differentiation and regulation. 相似文献

Bacterial stalk rot (BSR) of maize caused by Dickeya zeae is an important disease in northwest region of India. In the current study, eighty maize lines were evaluated for resistance against this disease. Of these, 20 were moderately resistant, 25 were moderately susceptible and the rest were highly susceptible to BSR. Six lines from each set were randomly selected. Activities of three antioxidant enzymes, viz. phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), peroxidase (POX) and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) were analysed from these three sets of maize lines representing different levels of resistance. A trend of elevated activity of PAL, POX and PPO was observed in all the three sets of maize lines. The results showed significantly more activity of these three enzymes in moderately resistant than highly susceptible maize lines. The activity of PAL and PPO peaked after 48 hr and of POX after 72 hr of challenge inoculation by D. zeae in all the maize lines. The activity of these enzymes further correlated negatively with disease development. Our results show that PAL, POX and PPO play an important role in contributing towards resistance in maize against BSR. 相似文献

We demonstrated that exogenous application of 200 μM salicylic acid through root feeding and foliar spray could induce resistance against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Lycopersici (Fol) in tomato. Endogenous accumulation of free salicylic acid in tomato roots was detected by HPLC and identification was confirmed by LC–MS/MS analysis. At 168 h of salicylic acid treatment through roots, the endogenous salicylic acid level in the roots increased to 1477 ng g?1 FW which was 10 times higher than control plants. Similarly, the salicylic acid content was 1001 ng g?1 FW at 168 h of treatment by foliar spray, which was 8.7 times higher than control plants. The activities of phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL, EC 4.3.1.5) and peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.7) were 5.9 and 4.7 times higher, respectively than the control plants at 168 h of salicylic acid feeding through the roots. The increase in PAL and POD activities was 3.7 and 3.3 times higher, respectively at 168 h of salicylic acid treatments through foliar spray than control plants. The salicylic acid-treated tomato plants challenged with Fol exhibited significantly reduced vascular browning and leaf yellowing wilting. The mycelial growth of Fol was not significantly affected by salicylic acid. Significant increase in basal level of salicylic acid in noninoculated plants indicated that tomato root system might have the capacity to assimilate and distribute salicylic acid throughout the plant. The results indicated that the induced resistance observed in tomato against Fol might be a case of salicylic acid-dependent systemic acquired resistance. 相似文献

In order to investigate heritability and gene action for yellow rust resistance in wheat, a resistance yellow rust cultivar Aflak was crossed to susceptible cultivar Avocet‘s’. Parents, F1, F2 and F3 generations were cultured according to randomised complete block design with two replications in the research station of Gharakhil, Iran. Parents and other generations were inoculated with 70E0A+ race. Traits including severity and infection type were recorded and then coefficient of infection was calculated. For this trait, generations mean and variance analysis were performed and results showed that there were significant differences among generations for coefficient of infection. Results showed that in addition to additive and dominance effects, at least one kind of epistasis interaction (additive × additive) control this trait. Although additive and dominance effects control this trait, but with attention to generations variance analysis, the results showed that additive variance had important role to control this trait. 相似文献

The spatial pattern of expression for a maize gene encoding a hydroxyproline-rich glycoprotein (HRGP) was determined by in situ hybridization. During normal development of roots and leaves, the expression of the gene was transient and particularly high in regions initiating vascular elements and associated sclerenchyma. Its expression was also associated with the differentiation of vascular elements in a variety of other tissues. The gene encoded an HRGP that had been extracted from the cell walls of maize suspension culture cells and several other embryonic and post-embryonic tissues. The gene was present in one or two copies in different varieties of maize and in the related monocots teosinte and sorghum. A single gene was cloned from maize using a previously characterized HRGP cDNA clone [Stiefel et al. (1988). Plant Mol. Biol. 11, 483-493]. In addition to the coding sequences for the HRGP and an N-terminal signal sequence, the gene contained a single intron in the nontranslated 3' end. 相似文献

Fourier transform Raman (FT Raman) and IR (FTIR) and (1)H-NMR spectroscopies coupled with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were applied to the characterization of root exudates from two cultivars of gladiolus (Spic Span and White Prosperity) with different degrees of resistance and susceptibility to Fusarium oxysporum gladioli, the main pathogen of gladiolus. This work was aimed at correlating the composition of root exudates with the varietal resistance to the pathogen. Spectroscopic analysis showed that White Prosperity root exudate differs from Spic Span root exudate by a higher relative amount of the aromatic-phenolic and sugarlike components and a lower relative amount of carbonylic and aliphatic compounds. DSC analysis confirmed the spectroscopic results and showed that White Prosperity root exudate is characterized by an aromatic component that is present in a higher amount than in the Spic Span root exudate. The results are discussed in relation to the spore germination tests showing that White Prosperity, which is characterized by a remarkable resistance toward F. oxysporum gladioli, exudes substances having a negative influence on microconidial germination of the pathogen; root exudates from Spic Span, one of the most susceptible cultivars to F. oxysporum gladioli, proved to have no effect. White Prosperity's ability to inhibit conidial germination of F. oxysporum gladioli can be mainly related to the presence of a higher relative amount of aromatic-phenolic compounds. 相似文献
