Experiments were conducted to study the effect of moderately halophilic bacteria isolated from different Tunisian Sebkhas (hypersaline soils), on stem canker caused byBotrytis cinerea on tomato plants grown under greenhouse conditions. Treatments performed with moderately halophilic isolates ofBacillus subtilis J9 andHalomonas sp. K2-5 significantly reduced stem lesion expansion byB. cinerea on tomato plants under greenhouse conditions. The use of such bacteria may constitute an important alternative to synthetic fungicides, which failed to suppress the development of the fungal pathogen.  相似文献

Summary Highest uptake of32P by young shoots of three plant species was observed and lowest by old ones. The uptake of32P was highest inHydrilla shoots, followed byVallisneria andPotamogeton.Kinetin (0.23 mM) pretreatment (24 h) increased the uptake of32P, while 0.69 mM ethrel or 0.075 mM ABA decreased it in all species.32P was transported to the largest extent to the young shoots of the submerged plants and to the smallest extent to the old ones by kinetin pretreatment. Kinetin enhanced the uptake of32P most inHydrilla shoots, followed byVallisneria andPotamogeton. Ethrel diminished32P uptake most inPotamogeton shoots and to the smallest extent inHydrilla, while ABA lowered it most inHydrilla shoots and to the smallest extent inPotamogeton. Kinetin, ethrel and ABA can modify the uptake of32P of these aquatic plants.  相似文献

A rice chitinase cDNA (RCC2) driven by the CaMV 35S promoter was introduced into cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) through Agrobacterium mediation. More than 200 putative transgenic shoots were regenerated and grown on MS medium supplemented with 100 mg/l kanamycin. Sixty elongated shoots were examined for the presence of the integrated RCC2 gene and subsequently confirmed to have it. Of these, 20 were tested for resistance against gray mold (Botrytis cinerea) by infection with the conidia: 15 strains out of the 20 independent shoots exhibited a higher resistance than the control (non-transgenic plants). Three transgenic cucumber strains (designated CR29, CR32 and CR33) showed the highest resistance against B. cinerea: the spread of disease was inhibited completely in these strains. Chitinase gene expression in highly resistant transgenic strains (CR32 and CR33) was compared to that of a susceptible transgenic strain (CR20) and a control. Different responses for disease resistance were observed among the highly resistant strains. CR33 inhibited appressoria formation and penetration of hyphae. Although CR32 permitted penetration of hyphae, invasion of the infection hyphae was restricted. Furthermore, progenies of CR32 showed a segregation ratio of 3:1 (resistant:susceptible). As the disease resistance against gray mold was confirmed to be inheritable, these highly resistant transgenic cucumber strains would serve as good breeding materials for disease resistance.

Biological control experiments were conducted with the lytic enzyme-producing fungusPenicillium purpurogenumagainst the plant pathogensMonilinia laxaandFusarium oxysporumf. sp.lycopersici.Applications ofP. purpurogenumto peach shoots previously inoculated withM. laxareduced lesion length and extent of pathogen colonization of shoots by 90 and 80% (P ≤ 0.05), respectively, comparable to the level of disease control obtained with the fungicide captan. Disease severity in tomato plants inoculated withF. oxysporumf. sp.lycopersiciwas decreased by 30% (P ≤ 0.05) with the biological treatment. The fungusP. purpurogenumproduced β-1,3-glucanase and chitinase activities in liquid culture that were inducible by cell walls and live mycelium ofM. laxabut not ofF. oxysporumf. sp.lycopersici.Crude filtrates or crude enzyme preparations ofP. purpurogenumcultures with lytic enzyme activities produced lysis of hyphae and spores ofM. laxaandF. oxysporumf. sp.lycopersici.These lytic effects were strong inM. laxaand ended in complete dissolution of mycelium. The induction of lytic enzymes byM. laxaand the effects of lytic enzymes on mycelia of the pathogens in relation to the different degrees of biological control obtained are discussed.  相似文献

Nitrate reductase (NR) activity of bothPisum sativum L. cv. Bonneville andTriticum aestivum L. cv. Sonalika seedlings was influenced by the phytochrome system. Short durations of “red” irradiation (R) increased extractable levels of NR whereas subsequent short “far-red” irradiation (FR) partially inhibited the R modulated increases. Qualitatively, a negative correlation existed between thein vitro NR activities andin vivo phytochrome levels inPisum. “Blue” irradiation (B) also increased extractable levels of NR inTriticum. A partial action spectrum study made by exposing excised etiolated leaves ofTriticum and shoot apices ofPisum revealed a maximum increase in extractable NR activities and tissue nitrate level (inTriticum) at 656 nm. A partial action spectrum for the extracted enzyme ofTriticum indicated that at 700 nm the level of activity was increased (as compared to dark controls) more than by R (656 nm), FR (725 nm) or B (425 or 450 nm) irradiation, although all wavelengths used increased NR activity.  相似文献

In vitro grown shoot tissue of facultative apomictic lines of guayule (Parthenium argentatum Gray), a rubber producing desert shrub, were transformed by Agrobacterium-mediated DNA transfer and regenerated into complete plants. Guayule shoots of lines 11591, UC101 and UC104 were inoculated with A. tumefaciens strains LBA4404 or PC2760 harboring the binary vector pCGN1557. Axillary shoots were regenerated from transformed cells and rooted in vitro in the presence of kanamycin. Genetic transformation in all cases was verified by Southern blot analysis. Transgenic plants were grown to maturity in the greenhouse and, as predicted for apomictic species, all seed produced possessed kanamycin resistance. Because apomicts have limitations for gene transfer by normal sexual crosses, this method offers a new means of transferring genes into this species.Abbreviations BA benzyladenine - EDTA ethylene diamine tetraacetate - kanR kanamycin resistance - MS salts salts of Murashige and Skoog medium (1962) - NAA naphthalene acetic acid - NPT-II neomycin phosphotransferase - SDS sodium dodecyl sulfate  相似文献

A study was conducted to determine whether colonization of legume roots and nodulation byRhizobium meliloti andBradyrhizobium japonicum could be enhanced by using inocula containing microorganisms that produce antibiotics suppressing soil or rhizosphere inhabitants but not the root-nodule bacteria. An antibiotic-producing strain of Pseudomonas and one of Bacillus were isolated, and mutants ofR. meliloti andB. japonicum sp. resistant to the antibiotics were used. The colonization of the alfalfa rhizosphere and nodulation byR. meliloti were enhanced by inoculation of soil withPseudomonas sp. in soil initially containing 2.7×105 R. meliloti per g. The colonization of soybean roots byB. japonicum was enhanced by inoculating soil with three cell densities ofBacillus sp., and nodulation was stimulated byBacillus sp. added at two cell densities. In some tests, the dry weights of soybeans and seed yield increased as a result of these treatments, and co-inoculation with Bacillus also increased pod formation. Inoculation of seeds withBacillus sp. and the root-nodule bacterium enhanced nodulation of soybeans and alfalfa, but colonization byB. japonicum andR. meliloti was stimulated only during the early period of plant growth. Studies were also conducted withStreptomyces griseus and isolates ofR. meliloti andB. japonicum resistant to products of the actinomycete. Nodulation of alfalfa byR. meliloti was little or not affected by the actinomycete alone; however, both nodulation and colonization were enhanced if the soil was initially amended with chitin andS. griseus was also added. Chitin itself did not affectR. meliloti. Treatments of seeds with chitin orS. griseus alone did not enhance colonization of alfalfa roots byR. meliloti or soybean roots byB. japonicum, but the early colonization of the roots by both bacterial species was promoted if the seeds received both chitin andS. griseus; this treatment also increased nodulation and dry weights of alfalfa and soybeans and the N content of alfalfa. It is suggested that co-inoculation of legumes with antibiotic-producing microorganisms and root-nodule bacteria resistant to those antibiotics is a promising means of promoting nodulation and possibly nitrogen fixation.  相似文献

Echinochloa colona regeneration via organogenesis in callus cultures derived from leaf base and mesocotyl expiants andin vitro flowering were achived. Shoot bud regeneration was achieved on Murashige and Skoog’s (MS) basal medium supplemented with 6.66 μM 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), 2.68 μM 1-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and 3 % (m/v) saccharose. Regenerated shoots were rooted on half strength basal MS medium with 2 % (m/v) saccharose devoid of growth regulators. About 90 -95 % of rooted plantlets survived in the greenhouse.In vitro flowering was induced in the regenerated shoots derived from callus on half strength MS medium supplemented with 4.4 μM BAP, 74.07 μM adeninesulphate, 0.72 μM gibberellic acid, and 3 % (m/v) saccharose. The frequency ofin vitro flowering was 80 – 90 % in three repeated experiments. Fertile seeds were recovered fromin vitro grown plantlets which were subsequently germinated into plants.

B. cinerea and C. atramentarium rotted wound-inoculated green tomato fruits and wounded or intact ripe fruits while G. cingulata developed rots only in ripe fruits. Pectic en-zymes were extracted from the fruit tissue rotted by B. cinerea and C. atramentarium but no pectic enzymes attributable to the fungus were detected in ripe fruits rotted by G. cingulata. G. cingulata produced endo-PG and endo-PL in vitro, C. atramentarium produced endo-PL in vitro and in vivo and B. cinerea produced exo-PG in vitro and in green fruits but endo-PG and endo-PL in ripe fruits. Well ripened tomato fruits contained high levels of endogenous PG. All three fungi produced proteolytic enzymes in vitro and in vivo. Proteases produced by G. cingulata and C. atramentarium had optimum activity at pH 9 to 10 and were not trypsin-like or chymotrypsin-like in nature. Protease produced by B. cinerea had optimum activity at pH 7 and showed both trypsin and chymotrypsin-like activity. Proteins extracted from the cell walls of tomato fruits inhibited both the endo-PG and endo-PL produced by G. cingulata and the endo-PL produced by B. cinerea but did not in-hibit the activity of PGs produced by B. cinerea, the endo-PL produced by C. atramentarium or the endogenous PG from tomato fruits. The cell wall proteins also contained trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibitor activity which inhibited 70 % of the activity of the protease produced by B. cinerea, but had little effect on the proteases produced by G. cingulata, C. atramentarium or the tomato endogenous protease. Enzymes produced in vitro by G. cingulata macerated green tomato tissue more slowly than enzymes produced in vitro by C. atramentarium and B. cinerea and the rate of mation was further reduced in the presence of added cell wall proteins. Excess inhibitor of the little effect on the rate of maceration by the enzymes produced by C. atramentarium of the cinerea.  相似文献

The endogenous levels of isopentenyladenine, isopentenyladenosine, zeatin and zeatin riboside and the ability forin vitro axillary shoot organogenesis and rhizogenesis were compared between mature and rejuvenated clones ofHevea brasiliensis (Müll. Arg.). Enhancement of thein vitro organogenesis ability of rubber-tree clones following somatic embryogenesis or repeated grafting onto juvenile rootstocks was accompanied by an increase of zeatin riboside levels in shoots used as starting material forin vitro micropropagation. Furthermore, the zeatin level, inin vitro shoots of clones treated byin vitro micrografting, and consequently capable of axillary shoot and root organogenesis, was higher than inin vitro shoots of non treated mature material incapable of in vitro organogenesis. We conclude that the endogenous zeatin-like cytokinin level (free and ribosylated forms) can be considered as a reliable marker for the recovery ofin vitro shoot and root organogenesis after rejuvenating treatments in rubber-tree clones.  相似文献

The aim of the work was to determine the effect of exposing ovine bronchoalveolar macrophages (BAM)in vivotoPasteurella haemolyticaand/orBordetella parapertussison the subsequent uptake and killing ofP. haemolyticaby these cellsin vitro. Exposurein vivotoP. haemolyticadid not affect the uptake ofP. haemolyticaby BAMin vitrobut reduced (P< 0·05) the intracellular killing of bacteria. Exposurein vivotoB. parapertussishad no significant effect on either the uptake of killing ofP. haemolytica in vitro. However, sequential exposurein vivotoB. parapertussisandP. haemolyticareduced both the ingestion (P< 0·05) and killing (P< 0·001) ofP. haemolytica in vitro. These results indicate that exposure toP. haemolyticacompromised the bacterial killing mechanisms of BAM and that synergy betweenB. parapertussisandP. haemolyticareduced the ability of BAM to ingest bacteria.  相似文献

Sugar beet grown in pots was sprayed with N6-(m-hydroxybenzyl)adenosine, (mOH)- [9R]BAP, one of the synthetic cytokinins. Root tissue was then examined for respiration and for H+-adenosinetriphosphatase activity and both leaf and root tissue served as the object for 6-deoxy-D-glucose and 2-aminoisobutyric acid uptake estimations. Treatment with (mOH)[9R]BAP depressed the uptake of oxygen by the roots of both young and old plants by 17 – 30 % while addition of (mOH)[9R]BAP to the respiring slices decreased it by 10 – 23 %. Uptake of 6-deoxy-D-glucose was mostly diminished byin vivo spraying with the cytokinin (by up to 12 % in leaves and by up to 60 % in roots), as well as by adding it to the experimental vessel (insignificantly in the leaves but by up to 80 % in the roots). The H+-ATPase activity was stimulated bothin vivo andin vitro appreciably in young plants but not at all in plants at the end of their vegetation period.

Regeneration of natural forests was studied in the Nakagawa Experiment Forest of Hokkaido University using age distribution surveys made by the clear felling method. In Plot 1 (30 m × 65 m),Abies sachalinensis dominated the canopy layer but there were also a fewBetula ermanii trees.Sasa senanensis densely covered the forest floor. Most of the canopy trees were from 122 to 195 years old. Seedlings younger than 50 years old ofA. sachalinensis were found on fallen logs and root bases. There were, however, few trees from 50 to 120 years old. The present canopy trees seemed to have regenerated after competitive pressure from old canopy andSasa disappeared 180 years ago. Plot 2 (50 m × 100 m) on serpentinite soil was dominated byPicea glehnii. Sasa kulirensis covered the floor but not as densely asS. senanensis in Plot 1. The ages ofP. glehnii ranged from 1 to 586 years old, and the age distribution ofA. sachalinensis was L-shaped. A small gap in the canopy formed about 290 years ago, and it gradually extended. Conifers regenerated continuously in the extending gap butB. ermanii did not. One hundred thirty years ago, part of Plot 2 was again destroyed andA. sachalinensis andB. ermanii regenerated. Thus, two types of regeneration were found. One regenerated both conifers andBetula after a sudden disturbance of canopy layer or death ofSasa, and the other, under an extending gap, regenerated only conifers.  相似文献

Severity of stem-rot disease of peanut caused byRhizoctonia solani was reduced by 54.9 and 68% in plants of two cultivars treated in the greenhouse with antagonistic strains ofPseudomonas fluorescens. These strains were selected based on theirin vitro toxicity to mycelial growth and sclerotial germination ofR. solani. In field experiments, bacterization of peanuts withP. fluorescens resulted in taller plants (by 25.7%) and increased yields (by 59.0%).  相似文献

Damage of leaf spot, caused by Mycosphaerella fragariae and gray mold also called Botrytis fruit rot, caused by Botrytis cinerea, average fruit weight and yield were evaluated with regard to cultural methods over 2years. Leaf spot damage decreased significantly by around 90% due to leaf sanitation (removal of dead and leaf spot infected leaves in early spring) and by 50% due to plantation in a one-row-system instead of a two-row-system. When all leaves including the healthy green ones were removed in early spring, average fruit weight decreased significantly by 10%. Fruit sanitation – the third treatment – did not influence any of the measured parameters. Neither leaf sanitation nor fruit sanitation (removal of damaged fruits during harvest) reduced B. cinerea damage significant. Only the combination of a one-row-system, leaf sanitation and fruit sanitation almost halved (not significantly) B. cinerea damage in the first crop year compared to a two-row-system without leaf and fruit sanitation. B. cinerea damage correlated significantly and positively with the biomass of plants by R2= 0.47. According to this study and the cited literature it is suggested for humid Central European conditions to apply a one-row-system combined with leaf sanitation in early spring and fruit sanitation during harvest if fruit density is high, to reduce the risk of damages in larger dimension caused by M. fragariae and B. cinerea.  相似文献

Summary A protocol for in vitro propagation of Bixa orellana is described. Plants were regenerated from shoot apex and nodal explants on B5 medium supplemented with 4.9 μM 2-isopentenyl adenine. The multiplication factor of shoot apex explants was higher (nine shoots per explant) than that of the nodal explants (five shoots per explant). Regardless of the position of the nodes, all the nodal explants gave similar responses. However, the size of the nodal explant was an important factor in producing multiple shoots: 0.5 cm nodal explants produced the maximum multiple shoots. Regenerated shoots from shoot apex explants rooted best on MS medium supplemented with 0.05 μM α-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). whereas shoots regenerated from nodal explants needed 2.7 μM NAA for rooting. Eighty per cent survival of in vivo transferred plants occurred on the best potting substrate, coco peat. Since the multiplication factor was nine per explant, this protocol can be use for commercial microprogation. However, the regeneration capacity declined after 10 subcultures. Approximately, 3350 rooted plants could be generated in 10 mo. after eight subcultures, from one shoot with a shoot apex and four nodes.  相似文献

Twenty-oneRhizobium andBradyrhizobium strains were testedin vitro against the mycelial growth of three pathogenic fungi on solid and liquid media. All tested rhizobia and bradyrhizobia significantly suppressed the growth of the three soil-borne root-infecting fungi (Fusarium solani, Macrophominia phasolina andRhizoctonia solani) either in the absence or presence of iron. This indicates that the siderophore played a minor role in the biocontrol potential ofRhizobium andBradyrhizobium against pathogenic fungi. Pot experiments revealed that the numbers of propagules causing disease after 4 weeks of planting varied with species and host plant. The three most activeRhizobium andBradyrhizobium strains (R. leguminosarum bv.phaseoli TAL 182,B. japonicum TAL 377 andBradyrhizobium sp. (lupin) WPBS 3211 D) tested under greenhouse conditions for their ability to protect one leguminous (soybean) and two non-leguminous (sunflower and okra) seedlings from root rot caused byFusarium solani, Macrophominia phaseolina andRhizoctonia solani provided significant suppression of disease severity compared with nonbacterized control in both leguminous and non-leguminous seedlings.Bradyrhizobium sp. (lupin) WPBS 3211 D provided the lowest degree of resistance against all the tested pathogens with all host plants. *** DIRECT SUPPORT *** A00EN058 00013  相似文献

Morphological and isozyme variation was observed among plants regenerated from callus cultures of Cereus peruvianus. Different morphological types of shoots (68%) were observed in 4-year-old regenerated plants, while no distinct morphological variants were observed in plants grown from germinated seeds. Isozyme patterns of 633 plants regenerated from calli and of 261 plants grown from germinated seeds showed no variation in isocitrate dehydrogenase isozyme, and the differential sorbitol dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, acid phosphatase, and peroxidase isozyme patterns observed in regenerated plants were attributed to nonallelic variation. Allelic variation was detected at three isoesterase loci. The proportion of polymorphic loci for both populations was 13.6% and the deviation from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium for the Est-1 and Est-7 loci observed in somaclones was attributed to the manner in which the regenerant population was established. The high values for genetic identity among regenerant and seed-grown plant populations are in accordance with the low levels of interpopulation genetic divergence. In somaclones of C. peruvianus, morphological divergence was achieved within a short time but was not associated with any isozyme changes and also was not accompanied by biochemical genetic divergence.  相似文献

Transgenic groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) plants were produced efficiently by inoculating different explants withAgrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 harbouring a binary vector pBM21 containinguidA (GUS) andnptll (neomycin phosphotransferase) genes. Genetic transformation frequency was found to be high with cotyledonary node explants followed by 4 d cocultivation. This method required 3 days of precultivation period before cocultivation withAgrobacterium. A concentration of 75 mg/l kanamycin sulfate was added to regeneration medium in order to select transformed shoots. Shoot regeneration occurred within 4 weeks; excised shoots were rooted on MS medium containing 50 mg/I kanamycin sulfate before transferring to soil. The expression of GUS gene (uidA gene) in the regenerated plants was verified by histochemical and fluorimetric assays. The presence ofuidA andnptll genes in the putative transgenic lines was confirmed by PCR analysis. Insertion of thenptll gene in the nuclear genome of transgenic plants was verified by genomic Southern hybridization analysis. Factors affecting transformation efficiency are discussed.  相似文献
