In this paper the latest studies dealing with genetic variation and mycotoxins ofF. avenaceum and related species are reviewed and compared to the data from chromatographic image analyses. Forty-three European strains ofFusarium avenaceum and related species were classified by chromatographic image analysis on full chromatographic matrices. The results were in most cases in agreement with those from morphological and molecular analyses and supported the separation betweenF. avenaceum, F. arthrosporioides andF. tricinctum and betweenF. avenaceum groups I and II. The mycotoxin profiles of the FinnishF. avenaceum, F. arthrosporioides andF tricinctum strains were very similar to each other. Moniliformin and enniatins were the main mycotoxins produced. A fluorogenic TaqMan PCR assay (qPCR) was used for the detection ofF. avenaceum/ F. arthrosporioides DNA in Finnish barley and wheat. The qPCR results obtained from grain samples were compared to mycotoxin levels. A correlation was found betweenF. avenaceum/F. arthrosporioides DNA and moniliformin (MON) and enniatin (ENNs) levels in barley. A correlation was also found between the combinedF. avenaceum/F. arthrosporioides/F. tricinctum contamination and MON and ENNs levels in barley in 2002, but not in 2003. This was probably due to the higher MON and ENNs levels in 2002 than in 2003. It was possible to use the DNA levels ofF. avenaceum/F. arthrosporioides to distinguish between most barley samples containing high amounts of MON and ENNs from those containing low levels of the mycotoxins.

Sixty-two isolates of Fusarium were obtained from pasture grass and soil from various areas of New Zealand and identified as F. anthophilum [2], F. avenaceum [17], F. crookwellense [8], F. culmorum [4], F. graminearum [1], F. nivale [3], F. oxysporum [3], F. sambucinum [17], F. semitectum [1], F. tricinctum [1] and an unidentified Fusarium spp. [5]. These isolates were grown on autoclaved rice and tested for toxicity to rats in feeding tests. Eighty two percent of the isolates were toxic, of which twenty-four percent were severely toxic and caused hemorrhages of stomach and intestine, hematuria, and finally death. Cultures of the most toxic isolates contained 0.1 to 104 ppm of deoxynivalenol, 0.7 and 7 ppm of 15- and 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol respectively, 0.2 to 4 ppm of fusarenon- X, 11 to 1021 ppm zearalenone, 40 to 272 ppm of the hemorrhagic factor (wortmannin), 2,100 to 7,200 ppm of moniliformin, 565 ppm of the cytotoxic factor (HM-8) and enniatin in substantial concentrations. F. sambucinum is reported as a moniliformin producer for the first time.  相似文献

Fusarium Head Blight of small grain cereal is a disease of growing concern in Europe. Along with Microdochium nivale, several species of Fusarium may be associated with the disease, including species that are potentially toxigenic. This paper describes the results of a large scale survey of the variety and frequency of different Fusarium species and M. nivale in France. A total of 749 soft wheat, durum wheat and barley samples were collected and analyzed from 2000 to 2002. The most frequent species isolated were F.graminearum, F. avenaceum and F. poae. The frequency of F. poae seems to have increased while M.nivale and F. culmorum appear less frequent than previously described in France. Other Fusarium species detected in decreasing prevalence were F. tricinctum, F. equiseti, F. acuminatum, F. sambucinum, F.sporotrichioides, F. moniliforme, F. heterosporum, F. subglutinans and F. oxysporum. All the most frequent pathogenic species and also the less pathogenic ones were frequently associated with individual fields. The implications of these associations for the protection of cereals crops and for contamination by mycotoxins are discussed.  相似文献

We evaluated Fusarium contamination and the levels of hexadepsipeptide mycotoxins in 13 wheat samples affected by head blight in Finland. Fusarium avenaceum was the dominant species (91%) isolated from all samples, but isolates of F. culmorum (4%), F. tricinctum (3%), and F. poae (2%) also were recovered. Beauvericin (0.64 to 3.5 μg/g) was detected in all 13 samples. Enniatin B (trace to 4.8 μg/g) was detected in 12 samples, enniatin B1 (trace to 1.9 μg/g) was detected in 8 samples, and enniatin A1 (trace to 6.9 μg/g) was detected in 10 samples. Ten of 13 strains of F. avenaceum and 2 strains of F. poae and F. tricinctum produced beauvericin in culture on rice (trace to 70, 9.4, and 33 μg/g, respectively). All strains also produced enniatins (trace to 2,700 μg/g). This is the first report on the natural cooccurence of beauvericin and enniatins in wheat infected predominantly by F. avenaceum.  相似文献

Surveys of corn (infected plants and commercial kernels) forFusarium species and their mycotoxins were carried out on samples collected all over Italy and from some European and mediterranean countries.Investigations on samples of corn stalk and ear rot standing in the field, mainly collected in southern Italy, proved to be contaminated with zearalenone (ZON), zearalenols (ZOL), and deoxynivalenol (DON). TheFusarium species most frequently isolated, and their recorded toxigenic capability (in parentheses), were:F. moniliforme;F. culmorum (ZON, ZOL, DON, 3AcDON);F. equiseti (ZON, ZOL); andF. proliferatum (MF). Along with these species,F. graminearum group 2 (ZON, DON and/or 3AcDON or 15AcDON);F. chlamydosporum;F. acuminatum (type-A trichothecene derivatives); andF. semitectum were often found to be associated.F. heterosporum (ZON, ZOL);F. solani;F. crookwellense (ZON, ZOL, FUS, NIV);F. oxysporum (MF);F. avenaceum (MF);F. sporotrichioides (T-2 toxin and derivatives); andF. poae (DAS, MAS) were occasionally isolated.  相似文献

Twenty-five isolates of F. acuminatum, 38 of F. avenaceum, 1 of F. culmorum, 31 of F. oxysporum and 56 of F. sambucinum were obtained in 1983, 1984 and 1986 from cereal grains and soil from various parts of Norway. The isolates were grown on an autoclaved Uncle Ben's parboiled rice medium and examined for production of trichothecenes and other toxins and for toxicity in rat feeding tests. F. culmorum N46C(2) and Fusarium sambucinum 45-86-A produced zearalenone (F-2) 864 and 665 ppm, respectively and caused uterine enlargement in rats. Most of these isolates produced no known trichothecene mycotoxins that could account for the toxicity that was demonstrated in the rat feeding tests. All but F. avenaceum N26B produced fusarin C (1.5 ppm) but caused no toxic effects in rat feeding test. None of the isolates produced fusarochromanone (TDP-1). Thirteen isolates of F. acuminatum, 16 of F. avenaceum, 14 of F. oxysporum and 3 of F. sambucinum produced a cytotoxic factor which we named HM-8. One isolate of F. avenaceum, 12 of F. oxysporum and 46 of F. sambucinum produced a hemorrhagic factor which we named H-1 (wortmannin). Twenty isolates of F. acuminatum, 22 of F. avenaceum, 17 of F. oxysporum and 1 of F. sambucinum produced moniliformin. Four isolates of F. acuminatum, 9 of F. avenaceum, 25 of F. oxysporum and 52 of F. sambucinum caused death to rats. Three isolates of F. avenaceum, 19 of F. oxysporum and 47 of F. sambucinum induced hemorrhage in various organs. All isolates caused decreased weight gain, relative to the control diets.  相似文献

Toxigenic Fusarium species are common pathogens of wheat and other cereals worldwide. In total, 449 wheat heads from six localities in Poland, heavily infected with Fusarium during 2009 season, were examined for Fusarium species identification. F. culmorum was the most common species (72.1% on average) with F. graminearum and F. avenaceum the next most commonly observed, but much less frequent (13.4 and 12.5% respectively). F. cerealis was found in 1.8% of all samples, and F. tricinctum was found only in one sample (0.2%). Subsequent quantification of the three major mycotoxins (deoxynivalenol, zearalenone and moniliformin) in grain and chaff fractions with respect to associated prevailing pathogen species uncovered the following patterns. Moniliformin (MON) was found in low amounts in all samples with F. avenaceum present. In contrast, deoxynivalenol (DON) and zearalenone (ZEA) were the contaminants of F. culmorum- and F. graminearum-infected heads. The highest concentration of DON was recorded in grain sample collected in Radzików (77 µg g?1). High temperatures in Central Poland during July and August accompanied with high rainfall in July were responsible for this high DON accumulation. Trichothecene, zearalenone, enniatin and beauvericin chemotypes were identified among 21 purified isolates using gene-specific PCR markers.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity and prevalence of Fusarium species in a survey of cereal and grassland systems from the South Island of New Zealand by applying morphological and molecular techniques. Isolates were collected from soil, roots, and stems from 21 cereal and grassland sites. Ten Fusarium species were identified using morphological characters, including F. acuminatum, F. avenaceum, F. crookwellense, F. culmorum, F. equiseti, F. oxysporum, F. poae, F. pseudograminearum, F. sambucinum, and F. tricinctum. In general, their distribution was found to be unrelated to biogeographical location, although agricultural practice increased the overall diversity of Fusarium. Phylogenetic analyses were successfully used to identify morphologically similar isolates belonging to the F. avenaceum/F. acuminatum/F. tricinctum species complex and to resolve previously undetermined relationships amongst these species. Fifty-eight isolates classified as either F. avenaceum, F. acuminatum, or other closely related species as well as several well-characterised isolates from international culture collections were examined using DNA sequence data for β-tubulin (βTUB), translation elongation factor 1α (EF1α), and mitochondrial small subunit ribosomal RNA (mtSSU). Analyses of DNA sequence data from both βTUB and EF1α discriminated among isolates of F. avenaceum, F. acuminatum, and F. tricinctum and determined that these three distinct sequence groups formed a single clade. By contrast, mtSSU was unable to differentiate F. avenaceum from F. acuminatum and other closely related species believed to be F. tricinctum. Comparison of the EF1α sequences with the international FUSARIUM-ID database supported the identification of isolates in this study. As in other studies, F. avenaceum was found to be widespread in agricultural and native ecosystems. However, F. acuminatum in New Zealand was found only on non-wheat hosts. The reason for the absence of this wheat pathogen in cereal-based ecosystems in New Zealand remains unknown.  相似文献

One culture ofF avenaceum, 4 cultures ofF oxysporum, and 11 cultures of Fsambucinum were isolated from soil samples of pasture in New Zealand in 1987. All cultures, when grown on rice media and fed to rats caused a weight loss in rats as well as toxic signs including hemorrhaging and congestion, uterine enlargement, and hematuria. 6 out of 16 cultures caused death in rat feeding tests.F oxysporum #1 killed rats (feeding test) within 5-12hrs. 10 cultures produced zearalenone (19 to 8,849 ppm), 8 cultures produced nivalenol (32 to 117 ppm), 1 culture,F sambucinum #8, produced wortmannin (40 ppm), and 5 cultures produced moniliformin (19 to 9,000ppm). We report for the first time the co-occurrence of zearalenone, nivalenol, and moniliformin produced byF sambucinum #3 in culture.F avenaceum #1 andF oxysporum cultures (nos 1, 2, and 3) produced moniliformin alone.F oxysporum #4 produced zearalenone alone as well.F sambucinum #5 caused erythema in the small intestine of rats and 100% mortality and did not produce any known toxin(s). Nivalenol when administered to the stomach of rats orally at levels 10, 20, and 40mg/kg body weight caused inflammation in the intestines, coma, and death. The mycotoxins T-2 toxin, HT-2 toxin, T-2 tetraol, diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS), monoacetoxyscirpenol (MAS), deoxynivalenol (DON), 3-acetyl-and 15-acetyldeoxynivalenol, depoxynivalenol, fusarenon-X, alpha-and beta-zearalenone, and fusarochromanone (TDP-1) were not detected in the extracts of these cultures.  相似文献

To assess the potential for mating in several Fusarium species with no known sexual stage, we developed degenerate and semidegenerate oligonucleotide primers to identify conserved mating type (MAT) sequences in these fungi. The putative α and high-mobility-group (HMG) box sequences from Fusarium avenaceum, F. culmorum, F. poae, and F. semitectum were compared to similar sequences that were described previously for other members of the genus. The DNA sequences of the regions flanking the amplified MAT regions were obtained by inverse PCR. These data were used to develop diagnostic primers suitable for the clear amplification of conserved mating type sequences from any member of the genus Fusarium. By using these diagnostic primers, we identified mating types of 122 strains belonging to 22 species of Fusarium. The α box and the HMG box from the mating type genes are transcribed in F. avenaceum, F. culmorum, F. poae, and F. semitectum. The novelty of the PCR-based mating type identification system that we developed is that this method can be used on a wide range of Fusarium species, which have proven or expected teleomorphs in different ascomycetous genera, including Calonectria, Gibberella, and Nectria.  相似文献

Test plantings with varieties ofLolium multiflorum andL perenne were harvested 4 to 7 times a year in 1991 and 1992. Samples were checked for the presence ofFusaria, the mycotoxins zearalenone, T-2 toxin, and diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS). Spectrum of species and the incidence ofFusaria and fusariotoxins are discussed in relation to the influencing factors site, variety ofLolium, harvesting time and year. Depending on these factors, 41 % to 100 % of the samples wereFusarium positive. Differences in infestation with Fusarium among varieties ofLolium perenne were dependent on location and did not correlate with yield. The six species ofFusarium pathogenic toLolium spp. (F. graminearum, F. culmorum, F. avenaceum, F. oxysporum, F. solani, and F. acuminatum) totaled 35.7 % of all the isolated strains. 14 species could be isolated fromLolium samples (descending frequency):F. culmorum, F. sambucinum, F. equiseti, F. acuminatum, F. semitectum, F. oxysporum, F. subglutinans, F. avenaceum, F. sporotrichioides, F. proliferatum, F. tricinctum, F. anthophilum, F. dimerum and F. graminearum. For the detection ofFusaria a promising new immunological method is presented. It is based on the genus specific production of exopolysaccharides byFusarium species. Mycotoxin contents in grass ranged from 0.01 to 4.75 ppm for zearalenone with 67 % positive samples and 0.3 % samples above 1 ppm, 0.04 to 2.78 ppm for T-2 toxin with 25 % positive samples and 2.8 % samples above 1 ppm, and 0.003 to 0.06 for DAS with 21.6 % positive samples. In silages, no T-2 toxin was detectable. IsolatedFusarium strains were checked for the ability to produce the mycotoxins zearalenone, T-2 toxin and DAS in culture. Most of the strains were positive for at least one of the toxins.  相似文献

Identification of Toxigenic Fusarium Species using PCR Assays   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Isolates of the toxigenic cereal pathogens Fusarium culmorum, Fusarium graminearum, Fusarium crookwellense and Fusarium avenaceum, from Poland (48 isolates) and 12 from England, New Zealand, Italy and Canada, were examined using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR), sequence-characterized amplified regions (SCARs), morphology and mycotoxin production under laboratory conditions. Their DNA products were compared by RAPD-PCR, which showed species-specific bands and the greatest diversity among isolates of F. avenaceum. PCR using three 20-mer-primer-pairs that are reported to be useful for identification of F. culmorum and F. graminearum group 2 confirmed their species-specificity. The same species-specific PCR product was observed in isolates of both nivalenol and deoxynivalenol chemotypes of F. culmorum or F. graminearum. A clear relationship was found between morphological and species-specific PCR identification of F. culmorum and F. graminearum isolates. However, F. avenaceum can be confused when using primers FA-ITS F/R (SCAR 2-14) with Fusarium tricinctum because the same band 272 bp appears in the gel, in both species probes.  相似文献

Wheat ears were inoculated with conidia of Fusarium spp. at different growth stages between ear emergence and harvest and moist conditions were maintained for up to 7 days subsequently by mist irrigation. Of the fungi tested (Fusarium culmorum, F. avenaceum, F. tricinctum, F. sporotrichioides and Microdochium nivale), only F. culmorum produced ear blight symptoms and grain samples were found subsequently to contain deoxynivalenol. Most ear infection and deoxynivalenol formation occurred following inoculation at about mid-anthesis. Small amounts of deoxynivalenol were formed and some F. culmorum was isolated even in the absence of ear blight symptoms. An overnight wet period was sufficient to initiate infection and deoxynivalenol formation but both were increased by extending the wet period up to at least 3 days. Recovery of Fusarium spp. from harvested grain was usually possible whether or not symptoms developed. F. culmorum usually persisted and often increased to moderately high levels after storage for 7 wk in a range of moisture conditions.  相似文献

The contamination of cereals with mycotoxins produced by species ofFusarium is an important risk to human and animal health. The toxigenic profile is different depending on theFusarium species considered and, in some species, differences can also be observed at intraspecific level. Information about the distribution and variability of the mycotoxigenicFusarium species allow prediction of the toxins that may occur and to devise control strategies. In this work, the occurrence of mycotoxigenicFusarium species associated to cereals was analysed in a wide sample of durum wheat fields (Triticum durum Desf.) and maize from the South West of Spain (Andalucía).F. equiseti, F. graminearum andF. culmorum were the most frequentFusarium species detected in wheat fields followed byF. sambucinum andF. avenaceum, whereas in the case of maize,F. verticillioides andF. proliferatum were the onlyFusarium species present. The relationships of the Spanish isolates from theF. equiseti, F. avenaceum andF. sambucinum species were analysed by nucleotide sequence comparison of a partial region of the Elongation Factor 1 alpha (EF-1α) with other sequences available in data bases. The results indicated thatF. avenaceum andF. equiseti showed high variability and that the SpanishF. equiseti isolates seemed to belong toF. equiseti type II.

Fusarium species involved in the Fusarium head blight complex in Western Europe were investigated for their potential to infect and colonize non-damaged wheat leaves and to produce conidia on senescing wheat leaves incubated at high relative humidity. Fusarium avenaceum, Fusarium culmorum, Fusarium graminearum, Fusarium poae and Fusarium tricinctum did not directly penetrate the leaf tissue after conidia germination on the leaf surface. Germ tubes grew on the host surface for 24–36 hr forming a mycelial network. After invading the host, some species formed runner hyphae between cell wall layers or underneath the cuticular layer. Macroscopic symptoms developed on leaves and stems from 7 d post inoculation. Inside leaf tissues, hyphae thickened in diameter and were both inter- and intra-cellular. Fusarium tricinctum formed sporophores which erupted through the leaf surface releasing numerous conidia. Incubation of senescing leaves at 100 % relative humidity for 48 hr resulted in sporulation of all Fusarium spp.  相似文献

Fusarium avenaceum, F. graminearum, F. poae and F. tricinctum showed abnormal growth, morphology and conidiation, and a tendency to produce crystals, inclusion bodies and sclerotia when freshly isolated from wheat stem bases or kernels onto low‐carbon potato dextrose agar (PDA). Observations of alterations in conidiation and conidium morphology are particularly significant, as these are the principal morphological diagnostic characteristics for Fusarium species. The fungi had normal growth when sub‐cultured onto standard PDA, suggesting that a balance of nutrients was responsible for the effects. Specific causes are discussed in detail in relation to published information. The importance of standard media in the identification of Fusarium species is emphasized, whilst non‐standard media may be useful for specific purposes, including routine isolation of fungi from mixed communities of species with different nutrient requirements.  相似文献

Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by several Fusarium species is one of the most serious diseases affecting wheat throughout the world. The efficiency of microbiological assays and real-time PCR to quantify major FHB pathogens in wheat ears after inoculation with F. graminearum, F. culmorum, F. avenaceum and F. poae under greenhouse and field conditions were evaluated. The frequency of infected kernel, content of fungal biomass, disease severity and kernel weight were determined. To measure the fungal biomass an improved DNA extraction method and a Sybr® Green real-time PCR were developed. The Sybr® Green real-time PCR proved to be highly specific for individual detection of the species in a matrix including fungal and plant DNA. The effect of Fusarium infection on visible FHB severity, frequency of infected kernels and thousand-kernel mass (TKM) significantly depended on the Fusarium species/isolate. F. graminearum resulted in highest disease level, frequency of infected kernels, content of fungal biomass, and TKM reduction followed by F. culmorum, F. avenaceum and F. poae, respectively. The comparison of frequency and intensity of kernel colonization proved differences in aggressiveness and development of the fungi in the kernels. Only for F. graminearum, the most aggressive isolate, application of microbiological and real-time PCR assays gave similar results. For the other species, the intensity of kernel colonization was lower than expected from the frequency of infection.  相似文献

Twenty-five samples of maize kernels collected at harvest time from geographically different corn fields in Peru, were examined for the occurrence of toxigenicFusarium species. The most frequently recovered species wereF. subglutinans (48%),F. moniliforme (46%), andF. equiseti (5%). OtherFusarium species isolated (up to 1%) includedF. graminearum, F. acuminatum, F. solani, F. oxysporum, andF. culmorum. Assays ofFusarium culture extracts usingArtemia salina larvae, showedF. subglutinans as one of the most toxigenic species, and its toxicity was mostly correlated to the capability to produce beauvericin (BEA). All eight tested isolates ofF. subglutinans grown on autoclaved corn kernels produced BEA (from 50 to 250 mg/Kg) as well as moniliformin (M) (from 70 to 270 mg/Kg). This is the first report on BEA and M production by maize isolates ofF. subglutinans from South America.  相似文献

Abstract

TaqMan real-time quantitative PCR assays were developed for the accurate detection and quantification of DNA from Fusarium poae and F. graminearum species, which are able to produce trichothecenes. These and other PCR assays were used for the quantification of trichothecene-producing Fusarium fungi in cereal grains. A correlation was found between the levels of F. poae DNA and nivalenol and enniatins in barley and between the levels of F. graminearum DNA and deoxynivalenol in oats. The correlations between F. poae DNA and nivalenol and F. graminearum DNA and deoxynivalenol levels were higher than those between these mycotoxins and morphologically determined F. poae and F. graminearum/F. culmorum contamination levels. The use of F. poae specific primers and probe together with F. sporotrichioides/F. langsethiae specific primers and probe in a multiplex qPCR assay yielded results in accordance with those obtained using these primers and probes separately.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate the relationships between the biotrophic mycoparasite Sphaerodes mycoparasitica and pathogenic Fusarium strains. To study the interactions between S. mycoparasitica and four different phytopathogenic Fusarium strains, macroscopic observations were performed using dual-culture assays and microscopic examinations in combination with light and fluorescent microscopy. Both macroscopic and microscopic techniques were also vital in determining the host specificity of S. mycoparasitica with F. avenaceum, F. oxysporum, F. proliferatum, and F. sporotrichioides. Our results suggest that S. mycoparasitica established haustorial contact with F. avenaceum and F. oxysporum. Data obtained from the dual-culture assay and parasitism interactions revealed that this newly described contact biotrophic mycoparasitic fungus was capable of reducing F. avenaceum and F. oxysporum linear growth and size of hyphal cells through infection and penetration.  相似文献
