烟粉虱B型和Q型群体遗传结构的RAPD分析

近20年来,烟粉虱B型传入世界各地并暴发成灾,成为一种重要的农业入侵害虫; 烟粉虱Q型则是近几年引起人们高度重视的一种新的入侵生物型,目前已传入许多国家并造成一定危害。本文利用RAPD分子标记对烟粉虱B型和Q型不同地理种群的遗传结构进行了分析。结果表明：（1）引物H16对烟粉虱B型不同种群扩增的特异带,能有效区分烟粉虱B型和Q型、浙江非B/Q型种群;（2）烟粉虱Q型种群各项遗传多样性指数均比烟粉虱B型的要高;（3）我国烟粉虱Q型来自伊比利亚半岛的可能性比来自中东地区的可能性要大。另外,聚类分析结果提示,RAPD分子标记能有效地区分烟粉虱不同生物型,但可能不适用于生物型之间亲缘关系分析。     

烟粉虱生物型的监测及其遗传结构研究

烟粉虱Bemisia tabaci(Gennadius)是一种重要的农业害虫并包括许多生物型,其中B型和Q型是入侵性较强的2种生物型。文章着重介绍近年来在烟粉虱生物型的监测及其遗传结构方面的研究进展。B型烟粉虱和Q型烟粉虱这2个生物型均已入侵我国,其中多数地区烟粉虱是B型烟粉虱,局部地区有Q型烟粉虱并呈现不断蔓延趋势。微卫星(SSR)分子标记分析结果表明我国B型烟粉虱的入侵来源具有多元化,而云南地区Q型烟粉虱来源比较单一。化学农药的使用能够影响室内种群的遗传结构,降低种群的遗传多样性。基于RAPD、ISSR分子标记的分析结果表明,Q型烟粉虱种群各项遗传多样性指数均比B型烟粉虱的高。今后加强烟粉虱入侵生物型的遗传结构及其种群动态关系等方面的研究,对于揭示烟粉虱的灾变机制及其控制具有重要的意义。     

Genetic differentiation of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) biotype Q based on mitochondrial DNA markers

In the present study, genetic differentiation of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) biotype Q was analyzed based on mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (mt COI) gene sequence. The results showed that B. tabaci biotype Q could be separated into two subclades, which were labeled as subclades Q1 and Q2. Subclade Q1 was probably indigenous to the regions around the Mediterranean area and subclade Q2 to Israel or Cyprus. It was because B. tabaci was composed of several genetically distinct groups with a strong geographical association between more closely related biotypes. Not all of the B. tabaci biotype Q in the non‐Mediterranean countries come from the same regions. Until now, all B. tabaci biotype Q in China were grouped into subclade Q1. The B. tabaci biotype Q introduced into the US included both subclades Q1 and Q2. The genetic structure analysis showed higher genetic variation of subclade Q1 than that of subclade Q2.     

Comparison of performance on different host plants between the B biotype and a non-B biotype of Bemisia tabaci from Zhejiang, China

The capacity of the B biotype of the whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae), to invade has often been linked to its presumably wider host range than the non‐B indigenous biotypes. However, there are few experimental studies of the relative performance of the B biotype and non‐B biotypes on different host‐plant species. Here, we compared the performance of the B biotype and an indigenous non‐B biotype (China‐ZHJ‐1) of B. tabaci from Zhejiang, China on five commonly cultivated host plants, each from a different family: cotton, tobacco, cabbage, squash, and kidney bean. We also examined the effect of rearing host plants on the performance of the B biotype. Overall, the performance of the B biotype on the five species of plants was much better than that of the indigenous non‐B population. On tobacco, cabbage, and kidney bean, no individuals of ZHJ‐1 completed development to adulthood, whereas the B biotype developed successfully from egg to adult on all three plants. On squash, the B biotype survived better, developed to adulthood earlier and had a higher fecundity than ZHJ‐1. The two biotypes performed more equally on cotton, but even on this plant the B biotype female adults lived nearly twice as long as that of ZHJ‐1 and may have realized a higher life‐time fecundity. The B biotype also showed a substantial capacity to acclimatize to alternative host plants for improved survival and reproduction, on both highly suitable and marginally suitable host plants. We conclude that the host range of the B biotype of B. tabaci may be much wider than those of some indigenous biotypes, and this advantage of the B biotype over the non‐B biotypes may assist in its invasion and displacement of some indigenous biotypes in the field.     

Characterization and genetics of multiple soybean aphid biotype resistance in five soybean plant introductions

Key message

Five soybean plant introductions expressed antibiosis resistance to multiple soybean aphid biotypes. Two introductions had resistance genes located in the Rag1, Rag2, and Rag3 regions; one introduction had resistance genes located in the Rag1, Rag2, and rag4 regions; one introduction had resistance genes located in the Rag1 and Rag2 regions; and one introduction had a resistance gene located in the Rag2 region.

Abstract

Soybean aphid (Aphis glycines Matsumura) is the most important soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] insect pest in the USA. The objectives of this study were to characterize the resistance expressed in five plant introductions (PIs) to four soybean aphid biotypes, determine the mode of resistance inheritance, and identify markers associated with genes controlling resistance in these accessions. Five soybean PIs, from an initial set of 3000 PIs, were tested for resistance against soybean aphid biotypes 1, 2, 3, and 4 in choice and no-choice tests. Of these five PIs, PI 587663, PI 587677, and PI 587685 expressed antibiosis against all four biotypes, while PI 587972 and PI 594592 expressed antibiosis against biotypes 1, 2, and 3. F₂ populations derived from PI 587663 and PI 587972 were evaluated for resistance against soybean aphid biotype 1, and populations derived from PIs 587677, 587685, and 594592 were tested against biotype 3. In addition, F_2:3 plants were tested against biotypes 2 and 3. Genomic DNA from F₂ plants was screened with markers linked to Rag1, Rag2, Rag3, and rag4 soybean aphid-resistance genes. Results showed that PI 587663 and PI 594592 each had three genes with variable gene action located in the Rag1, Rag2, and Rag3 regions. PI 587677 had three genes with variable gene action located in the Rag1, Rag2 and rag4 regions. PI 587685 had one dominant gene located in the Rag1 region and an additive gene in the Rag2 region. PI 587972 had one dominant gene located in the Rag2 region controlling antixenosis- or antibiosis-type resistance to soybean aphid biotypes 1, 2, or 3. PIs 587663, 587677, and 587685 also showed antibiosis-type resistance against biotype 4. Information on multi-biotype aphid resistance and resistance gene markers will be useful for improving soybean aphid resistance in commercial soybean cultivars.

     

Allele-specific PCR method based on rfbS sequence for distinguishing Salmonella gallinarum from Salmonella pullorum: serotype-specific rfbS sequence polymorphism

Cloning and sequence analysis of rfbS gene identified two polymorphic nucleotides, one at position 598 (Salmonella gallinarum-specific) and other at position 237 (Salmonella pullorum-specific). Based on S. gallinarum-specific nucleotide found at position 598, an allele-specific PCR method was developed for serotype-specific detection of S. gallinarum. This PCR method was able to discriminate pure cultures of S. gallinarum from S. pullorum and other Salmonella serotypes from serogroup D in less than 3 h. Serotype-specific detection of S. gallinarum was possible in less than 24 h when the PCR was applied on the presumptive Salmonella colonies obtained after overnight incubation of selective media plates streaked with the clinical material from diseased chickens. As little as 100 pg of genomic DNA could be detected with S. gallinarum-specific primers; no PCR product was detected in non-S. gallinarum serotypes of serogroup D and other closely related non-salmonella organisms. This rfbS allele-specific amplification assay is specific, reproducible and less time consuming than the standard bacteriological methods used to detect S. gallinarum and could be an effective molecular tool for rapid definitive diagnosis of fowl typhoid in the areas of endemicity where fowl typhoid infection exists.

浙江B型与一非B型(China-ZHJ-1)烟粉虱形态学和生物学特性的比较研究

本文对新入侵我国的B型与浙江一非B型（China-ZHJ-1种群）烟粉虱之间的生殖亲和性进行了测定,并对两个生物型在形态特征、发育历期、诱导西葫芦银叶反应及寄主植物适应性几方面进行了比较研究。结果表明,当将B型与非B型ZHJ-1种群进行杂交组合时,两生物型之间虽然有求偶行为发生,但从不发生交配,后代全部为孤雌生殖产下的雄虫;而B型、非B型各自内部羽化后0～72 h的平均交配次数分别为4.4次和1.0次, 所产后代的雌雄性比分别为2.8∶1、1.0∶1,前者性比显著高于后者。两生物型之间伪蛹形态存在明显差异,非B型ZHJ-1种群的前、后蜡缘饰宽度分别为B型的2.5～2.7倍、1.8～2.1倍。在棉花上,除B型1龄若虫历期较非B型的略长外,两生物型之间其他各虫态的发育历期均无显著差异;从2龄若虫起,非B型各虫态的体长明显长于B型,并且同一生物型内,4龄雌性若虫个体明显大于同龄雄性若虫。B型在多种寄主植物上的存活力比非B型的显著要强。B型与非B型ZHJ-1种群生物学特性的比较,为对我国烟粉虱这两个生物型进行深入的比较研究、探讨B型烟粉虱的入侵生物学提供了基础。     

Invasive mechanism and management strategy of Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) biotype B: Progress report of 973 Program on invasive alien species in China

Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) biotype B, called a “superbug”, is one of the most harmful biotypes of this species complex worldwide. In this report, the invasive mechanism and management of B. tabaci bio-type B, based on our 5-year studies, are presented. Six B. tabaci biotypes, B, Q, ZHJ1, ZHJ2, ZHJ3 and FJ1, have been identified in China. Biotype B dominates the other biotypes in many regions of the country. Genetic diversity in biotype B might be induced by host plant, geographical conditions, and/or insecticidal application. The activities of CarE (carboxylesterase) and GSTs (glutathione-S-transferase) in biotype B reared on cucumber and squash were greater than on other host plants, which might have increased its resistance to insecticides. The higher activities of detoxification enzymes in biotype B might be induced by the secondary metabolites in host plants. Higher adaptive ability of biotype B adults to adverse conditions might be linked to the expression of heat shock protein genes. The in-digenous B. tabaci biotypes were displaced by the biotype B within 225 d. The asymmetric mating in-teractions and mutualism between biotype B and begomoviruses via its host plants speed up wide-spread invasion and displacement of other biotypes. B. tabaci biotype B displaced Trialeurodes vapo-rariorum (Westwood) after 4－7 generations under glasshouse conditions. Greater adaptive ability of the biotype B to adverse conditions and its rapid population increase might be the reasons of its suc-cessful displacement of T. vaporariorum. Greater ability of the biotype B to switch to different host plants may enrich its host plants, which might enable it to better compete with T. vaporariorum. Native predatory natural enemies possess greater ability to suppress B. tabaci under field conditions. The kairomones in the 3rd and 4th instars of biotype B may provide an important stimulus in host searching and location by its parasitoids. The present results provide useful information in explaining the mechanisms of genetic diversity, evolution and molecular eco-adaptation of biotype B. Furthermore, it provides a base for sustainable management of B. tabaci using biological and ecological measures.     

A rapid and efficient new assay for determination of the three biotypes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens

We describe a new method for determining the biotype of Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains, based on differential motility in a medium adjusted to different pH levels. Motility of biotype I increases with increasing pH. That of biotype II slightly decreases, but the cells remain motile; the motility of biotype III decreases and the cells become non-motile. The assay is able to distinguish between strains of all three biotypes within 2 d, and can be applied to relatively large numbers of isolates. Thus it is more rapid and efficient than the frequently used biochemical biotype tests.     

B型烟粉虱与浙江非B型烟粉虱的竞争

为了了解近年来入侵中国的B型烟粉虱(Bemisiatabaci)取代本地非B型烟粉虱的潜能,在室内将一个B型与一个浙江非B型烟粉虱种群混合饲养在不同寄主植物上,跟踪观察混合种群中两个生物型个体数量相对比例的变化。结果表明,当两种生物型在棉花(Gossypiumhirsutum)上以相同初始数量共存竞争时,经过6代,非B型完全被B型替代;而在西葫芦(Cucurbitapepo)上以相同初始数量共存竞争时,只经过2代,非B型即完全被B型替代。在棉花上,即使以非B型占87%、B型占13%开始共存竞争,经过225d后,非B型也完全被B型替代。这说明B型烟粉虱具有在短期内竞争取代浙江非B型烟粉虱的能力。经分析,B型除了寄主范围比非B型的宽这一点对其竞争有利外,较强的内在竞争潜能也是其能成功入侵并替代本地非B型烟粉虱的一个重要原因。     

Sex pheromone discrimination by male aphids of a biotype of Schizaphis graminum

The ability of male aphids of two different biotypes (C & E) of the greenbug, Schizaphis graminum (Rondani), to distinguish ovipara-produced sex pheromone of their own biotype from that of the other biotype was examined using an arena olfactometer. Biotype E males showed a strong preference for biotype E oviparae; the preference of biotype C males for biotype C oviparae was less marked. These behavioral findings indicate a potential biochemical reproductive isolating mechanism for these biotypes.

Unterschiedung der weiblichen geschlechtspheromone zweier biotypen der aphide Schizaphis graminum durch die männchen

Zusammenfassung Die Reaktion der Männchen von zwei Biotypen (C & E) der Aphide Schizaphis graminum auf die Geschlechtspheromone der Oviparen ihres eigenen und des anderen Biotyps wurde mit Hilfe einer Olfaktometer-Arena untersucht. Biotyp E Männchen zeigten eine starke Präferenz für Biotyp E Ovipare, während die Präferenz von Biotyp C Männchen für Biotyp C Ovipare weniger stark ausgeprägt war. Diese Resultate deuten auf einen möglichen verhaltensbiologischen Isolationsmechanismus der beiden Biotypen dieser Blattlausart in der Natur hin.

     

B型与浙江非B型烟粉虱药剂敏感性的比较

比较了新入侵我国的B型烟粉虱Bemisiatabaci(Gennadius)与非B型烟粉虱ZHJ-1种群对5%吡虫啉乳油和5%吡丙醚乳油2种杀虫剂的敏感性。ZHJ-1种群卵、若虫和成虫对这2种药剂的敏感性均比B型的明显或显著要高。吡丙醚具有高杀卵活性,在有效成分为0.25mg/L时,2个烟粉虱种群卵的死亡率高于90%。药剂敏感性的差异可能是B型竞争取代本地非B型烟粉虱的一个重要原因。     

Rapid identification of B biotype of Bemisia tabaci (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae) based on analysis of internally transcribed spacer 1 sequence

Abstract B biotype is a reasonably important biotype among all known biotypes in the Bemisia tabaci species complex. Local populations of B. tabaci on different host plants were collected from across the Chinese mainland, Taiwan, Pakistan and Israel. From each population of B. tabaci , an internally transcribed spacer region of the ribosomal rDNA gene was amplified, cloned and the sequence determined. Sequence homology analyses were performed and the results were similar to those based on morphology and biological characters. Based on analysis of the internally transcribed spacer 1 sequences, a B biotype-specific primer was designed. The PCR diagnosis results showed that B biotype is identifiable by a specific PCR product by using the forward diagnostic primer paired with a universal reverse primer. This diagnostic primer-based protocol can be used for preliminary analysis of mixed Bemisia populations containing B biotype, as well as other biotypes.

The development of a flagellin surface display expression system in a moderate thermophile, <Emphasis Type="Italic">Bacillus halodurans</Emphasis> Alk36

This study relates to the development of an alkaliphilic, thermotolerant, Gram-positive isolate, Bacillus halodurans Alk36, for the over-production and surface display of chimeric gene products. This bacterium continuously over-produces flagellin. To harness this ability, key genetic tools, such as gene targeted inactivation, were developed for this strain. The hag gene, which codes for flagellin, was inactivated on the chromosome giving rise to the B. halodurans BhFC01 mutant. Polylinkers were inserted as in-frame, chimeric, flagellin sandwich fusions to identify the permissive insertion sites corresponding to the variable regions of the flagellin protein. Flagellin expression and motility were evaluated for these constructs. Two sites were identified for possible peptide insertion in the flagellin gene, one of which produced functional flagella and was able to restore the motility phenotype to a non-motile mutant. Peptides encoding a poly-histidine peptide and the HIV-1 subtype C gp120 epitope were, respectively, incorporated into this site as in-frame fusions. The peptides were found to be successfully displayed on the cell surface and functional through metal binding and immunological studies, respectively.     

Stable marker on flagellin gene sequences related to arabinose non-assimilating pathogenic Burkholderia pseudomallei

Using PCR-based isolation and sequence analysis of the flagellin gene from two distinct biotypes of Burkholderia pseudomallei, a 15-bp deletion was found within the variable domain of the gene in isolates capable of assimilating arabinose (Ara+). This finding led to the development of a PCR-based method in order to differentiate and identify pathogenic B. pseudomallei for epidemiological study. A pair of specific primers was designed covering the 15-bp deletion region at the variable domain. PCR-amplification products of 176 and 191 bp in size were detected from 41 Ara+ isolates and 39 Ara - isolates of B. pseudomallei, respectively. Moreover, flagellin gene fragments of other bacterial species tested in this study were not amplified using these primers. The results suggest that the flagellin gene sequences of both B. pseudomallei biotypes in this region are stable and distinct. This method can be applied and useful for the epidemiological study of B. pseudomallei.     

A Classification of Tylenchulus semipenetrans Biotypes

The presence of two biotypes of the citrus nematode (Tylenchulus semipenetrans) in Italian citrus and olive orchards has been confirmed by comparing host specificity. Host reaction to California biotypes C1 and C3 and to three populations from Arizona, Texas, and Florida indicates that of these five United States biotypes, all except C3 consistently fit biotype C1. These findings, and the results of host-range studies in other countries, show that four biotypes of T. semipenetrans are distributed worldwide: the "Poncirus biotype," the "Citrus biotype," the "Mediterranean biotype," and the "Grass biotype."     

Further spread of and domination by Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) biotype Q on field crops in China

The sweetpotato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae), causes severe crop losses to many crops. The worst of these losses are often associated with the invasion and establishment of biotypes B and Q of this pest. Previous research in 2007 showed that biotype Q occurred with other biotypes in most field populations in China. To determine the current status of the biotype composition in the field, an extensive survey covering mainly eastern parts of China was conducted in 2009. Using polymerase chain reaction primers specific for the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I of biotypes B and Q and gene sequencing, we determined the biotypes composition in 61 whitefly populations and their distribution across 19 provinces in China. Our research revealed that only biotypes B and Q have been found in the field in 2009 in China. Among them, biotype Q was dominant in 44 locations (100.0%) and biotype B was dominant in 17 locations (100.0%). The current survey indicates that biotype Q has rapidly displaced biotype B in most locations in China.     

On the origin and genetic variability of the two invasive biotypes of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Chromolaena odorata</Emphasis>

Chromolaena odorata (L.) R. M. King and H. Robinson (Asteraceae), originally from the Neotropics, has become a serious weed in the humid tropics and subtropics of Southeast Asia, Africa and Pacific Islands. In its introduced distributions, C. odorata has been recognised as two biotypes, the Asian/West African (AWA) biotype and South African (SA) biotype, with independent distribution, morphology and ecological characters. To characterise the genetic variability and identify the likely source regions in the native distributions of the two biotypes, we carried out an extensive phylogeographic study using chloroplast and nuclear DNA sequences and microsatellite DNA markers. The analysis of both DNA sequences and nuclear markers showed that native populations possessed high genetic diversity, while both the AWA and SA biotypes in invaded regions appeared to have low genetic diversity. The AWA and SA biotypes were genetically distinct. Strong competitive ability and environmental adaptability may have facilitated the invasion AWA and SA biotypes in its respective invasive regions. We conclude that the source of AWA biotype may be Trinidad and Tobago, while the SA biotype was from Cuba and Jamaica. For a better outcome of biocontrol, the potential biological control agents for the two biotypes should be collected from these native regions, respectively.
