The Cell Wall of Fusarium oxysporum

Sugar analysis of isolated cell walls from three formae speciales of Fusarium oxysporum showed that they contained not only glucose and (N-acetyl)-glucosamine, but also mannose, galactose, and uronic acids, presumably originating from cell wall glycoproteins. Cell wall glycoproteins accounted for 50–60% of the total mass of the wall. X-ray diffraction studies showed the presence of α-1,3-glucan in the alkali-soluble cell wall fraction and of β-1,3-glucan and chitin in the alkali-insoluble fraction. Electron microscopy and lectin binding studies indicated that glycoproteins form an external layer covering an inner layer composed of chitin and glucan.     

Isoforms of trehalase and invertase of Fusarium oxysporum

Enzymatic assays and native PAGE were used to study trehalase and invertase activities, depending on culture age and different sugar conditions, in cell-free extracts, culture filtrates and ribosomal wash of Fusarium oxysporum. The activity of invertase preceded that of trehalase; in the exponential phase of growth, mainly invertase activity was produced, whereas trehalase activity was high in the stationary phase. In this last phase of growth, the activity of intracellular trehalase was repressed by monosaccharides, whereas disaccharides, especially lactose and starch, enhanced the activity of intracellular and extracellular trehalase. However, invertase activity was not repressed under these conditions and had the maximal activity in the presence of saccharose. Intracellular trehalase appeared in a single, high-molecular weight (120 kDa) form, whereas the extracellular enzyme appeared in a single, low-molecular weight (60 kDa) form. The activity pattern of invertase isoforms indicated the occurrence of three forms of intracellular enzyme with the main activity band at 120 kDa and two isoforms of extracellular enzyme. In the ribosomal wash, high-molecular weight isoforms of both trehalase and invertase were identified. A possible role of trehalase and invertase in carbohydrate metabolism of fungal pathogens is also discussed.     

skippy, a retrotransposon from the fungal plant pathogen Fusarium oxysporum

A retrotransposon from the fungal plant pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici has been isolated and characterized. The element, designated skippy (skp) is 7846 by in length, flanked by identical long terminal repeats (LTR) of 429 by showing structural features characteristic of retroviral and retrotransposon LTRs. Target-site duplications of 5 bp were found. Two long overlapping open reading frames (ORF) were identified. The first ORF, 2562 by in length, shows homology to retroviral gag genes. The second ORF, 3888 bp in length, has homology to the protease, reverse transciptase. RNase H and integrase domains of retroelement pol genes in that order. Sequence comparisons and the order of the predicted proteins from skippy indicate that the element is closely related to the gypsy family of LTR-retrotransposons. The element is present in similar copy numbers in the two races investigated, although RFLP analysis showed differences in banding patterns. The number of LTR sequences present in the genome is higher than the number of copies of complete elements, indicating excision by homologous recombination between LTR sequences.     

Hydroxylation of steroids by Fusarium oxysporum, Exophiala jeanselmei and Ceratocystis paradoxa

The potential of Fusarium oxysporum var. cubense UAMH 9013 to perform steroid biotransformations was reinvestigated using single phase and pulse feed conditions. The following natural steroids served as substrates: dehydroepiandrosterone (1), pregnenolone (2), testosterone (3), progesterone (4), cortisone (5), prednisone (6), estrone (7) and sarsasapogenin (8). The results showed the possible presence of C-7 and C-15 hydroxylase enzymes. This hypothesis was explored using three synthetic androstanes: androstane-3,17-dione (9), androsta-4,6-diene-3,17-dione (10) and 3α,5α-cycloandrost-6-en-17-one (11). These fermentations of non-natural steroids showed that C-7 hydroxylation was as a result of that position being allylic. The evidence also pointed towards the presence of a C-15 hydroxylase enzyme.The eleven steroids were also fed to Exophialajeanselmei var. lecanii-corni UAMH 8783. The results showed that the fungus appears to have very active 5α and 14α-hydroxylase enzymes, and is also capable of carrying out allylic oxidations.Ceratocystis paradoxa UAMH 8784 was grown in the presence of the above-mentioned steroids. The results showed that monooxygenases which effect allylic hydroxylation and Baeyer–Villiger rearrangement were active. However, redox reactions predominated.

嫁接西瓜对西瓜枯萎病菌侵染的防御机制研究

为了揭示嫁接提高西瓜抗枯萎病的机制,该研究以嫁接西瓜为材料,采用扫描电镜观察了枯萎病菌侵染下寄主的组织结构变化,荧光定量分析了相关防卫基因的表达,比较了嫁接西瓜对枯萎病菌侵染的抗感反应。结果显示:(1)枯萎病菌侵染后,与自根西瓜相比,嫁接西瓜的根部木质部导管通过快速形成膜状物、侵填体及细胞壁增厚阻塞菌丝入侵;自根西瓜防御反应较嫁接西瓜晚,严重侵染时薄壁细胞降解,导管组织脱落导致维管系统空洞,从而使植株呈现萎蔫症状,该现象在嫁接西瓜中没有发现。(2)枯萎病菌侵染后,嫁接西瓜比自根西瓜具有较高的防卫基因表达水平,其中:嫁接西瓜中,CHI、APX和PPO基因的表达随枯萎病菌侵染时间的延长而升高,而PAL呈现先升高后降低的表达趋势,但仍高于本底表达;自根西瓜中,仅PPO基因在枯萎病菌侵染后表达上调,而其他基因的表达则是先升高后降低,与嫁接西瓜中的PAL基因表达一致。研究表明,嫁接植株一方面通过快速的组织结构响应,另一方面从转录水平提高了相关防卫基因的表达,最终使植株具有抗病性;推测防御基因在嫁接植株与枯萎病菌互作中的强烈诱导响应可能是嫁接植株抗病的分子机制之一。     

地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4脂肽结构鉴定及其对尖孢镰刀菌的抑制作用

【目的】地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4产生的脂肽能够有效抑制尖孢镰刀菌的生长,本研究的目的在于探究地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4脂肽结构,分析培养基组分和培养温度对FJAT-4产抑菌脂肽的影响,阐述脂肽对尖孢镰刀菌的抑制作用,为菌株抑菌机理的阐释及其在枯萎病防治中的推广应用奠定基础。【方法】通过酸沉醇提法提取地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4产生的脂肽;利用液相色谱串联四极杆飞行时间质谱进行地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4脂肽组成分析及结构鉴定;以抑菌圈大小为指标评估地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4脂肽对尖孢镰刀菌的抑制效果;通过扫描电镜观察地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4粗脂肽对尖孢镰刀菌的抑制作用。【结果】地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4产生的抑菌脂肽由C_(17)fengycin A、C_(17)fengycin B、C_(17)fengycin B_2、C_(16)fengycin A衍生物、C_(16)fengycin B衍生物、C_(13)–C_(15)surfactin及C_(13)–C_(15)surfactin衍生物组成,其中C_(13)–C_(15) surfactin衍生物(m/z[M+Na]~+=1048.6/1062.6/1076.6)为新化合物。培养基成分不同对菌株FJAT-4脂肽组成影响较小,但温度对菌株FJAT-4产生抑菌脂肽的影响很大,该菌株在较低温度(20–25°C)下培养不产生脂肽,30–40°C下培养能产生抑菌脂肽,且高温有利于提高脂肽中surfactin的比例。该脂肽类物质对辣椒、番茄、香蕉和甜瓜尖孢镰刀菌等多种植物病原真菌均具有很好的抑制效果,且呈剂量依赖性。扫描电镜结果表明地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4所产的脂肽会严重影响辣椒、番茄、香蕉和甜瓜尖孢镰刀菌菌丝的正常生长,导致菌丝断裂变形、孢子变形或显著抑制了孢子的生长。【结论】地衣芽胞杆菌FJAT-4产生的抑菌脂肽为fengycin和surfactin类物质,该抑菌脂肽会致使尖孢镰刀菌菌丝体发育畸形,影响尖孢镰刀菌的正常生长。     

Potential Role of Transposable Elements in the Rapid Reorganization of the Fusarium oxysporum Genome

The activity of several families of transposable elements (TEs) in the genome of Fusarium oxysporum represents a potential source of karyotypic instability. We investigated transposon-mediated chromosome rearrangements by analyzing the karyotypes of a set of strains in which transposition events had occurred. We uncovered exceptional electrophoretic karyotype (EK) variability, in both number and size of chromosomal bands. We showed that EK differences result from chromosomal translocations, large deletions, and even more complex rearrangements. We also revealed many duplicated chromosomal regions. By following transposition of two elements and analyzing the distribution of different families of TEs on whole chromosomes, we find (i) no evidence of chromosomal breakages induced by transposition, (ii) a clustering of TEs in some regions, and (iii) a correlation between the high level of chromosomal polymorphism and the concentration of TEs. These results suggest that chromosome length polymorphisms likely result from ectopic recombination between TEs that can serve as substrates for these changes.     

The application of high-throughput AFLP's in assessing genetic diversity in Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) is responsible for fusarium wilt of bananas. The pathogen consists of several variants that are divided into three races and 21 vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs). Several DNA-based techniques have previously been used to analyse the worldwide population of Foc, sometimes yielding results that were not always consistent. In this study, the high-resolution genotyping method of AFLP is introduced as a potentially effective molecular tool to investigate diversity in Foc at a genome-wide level. The population selected for this study included Foc isolates representing different VCGs and races, isolates of F. oxysporum f. sp. dianthi, a putatively non-pathogenic biological control strain F. oxysporum (Fo47), and F. circinatum. High-throughput AFLP analysis was attained using five different infrared dye-labelled primer combinations using a two-dye model 4200s LI-COR automated DNA analyser. An average of approx. 100 polymorphic loci were scored for each primer pair using the SAGA^MX automated AFLP analysis software. Data generated from five primer pair combinations were combined and subjected to distance analysis, which included the use of neighbour-joining and a bootstrap of 1000 replicates. A tree inferred from AFLP distance analysis revealed the polyphyletic nature of the Foc isolates, and seven genotypic groups could be identified. The results indicate that AFLP is a powerful tool to perform detailed analysis of genetic diversity in the banana pathogen Foc.

尖孢镰刀菌亚麻专化型Folprp4基因参与调控菌丝生长和分生孢子发生

目的: 通过对尖孢镰刀菌中Folprp4基因的鉴定,揭示其在尖孢镰刀菌中的功能及致病相关性。方法: 基于同源重组原理,根据测定出的Folprp4基因序列,应用Split-Marker重组技术构建含有潮霉素抗性基因(hph)的基因缺失盒。将基因缺失盒经PEG介导转化到野生型原生质体中,在含有潮霉素B的TCC培养基上筛选转化子,通过PCR正负筛查获得Folprp4基因缺失突变株(ΔFolprp4)。构建含有Folprp4基因的载体pZDH1,并将其转化到敲除突变体中进行互补测验。结果: 与野生型(hm)和异位插入突变体(ecFolprp4)相比,敲除突变体菌丝生长受到严重阻碍,当野生型和异位插入突变体长满整个平板时,敲除突变体菌落呈小点状。敲除突变体的另一个显著变化是ΔFolprp4的分生孢子产量显著下降。侵染实验表明,ΔFolprp4对亚麻幼苗的毒力显著降低。互补实验表明,该互补载体的回复子(Folprp4-C)在菌落形态、生长速率、分生孢子产量和毒力方面均恢复到了野生型菌株。结论: Folprp4基因与尖孢镰刀菌的菌丝生长、分生孢子发生和致病性有关。     

Three highly divergent subfamilies of the impala transposable element coexist in the genome of the fungus Fusarium oxysporum

The transposable element impala is a member of the widespread superfamily of Tc1-mariner transposons, identified in the genome of the plant pathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum. This element is present in a low copy number and is actively transposed in the F.␣oxysporum strain F24 that is pathogenic for melons. The structure of the impala family was investigated by cloning and sequencing all the genomic copies. The analysis revealed that this family is composed of full-length and truncated copies. Four copies contained a long open reading frame that could potentially encode a transposase of 340 amino acids. The presence of conserved functional domains (a nuclear localisation signal, a catalytic DDE domain and a DNA-binding domain) suggests that these four copies may be autonomous elements. Sequence comparisons and phylogenetic analysis of the impala copies defined three subfamilies, which differ by a high level of nucleotide polymorphism (around 20%). The coexistence of these divergent subfamilies in the same genome may indicate that the impala family is of ancient origin and/or that it arose by successive horizontal transmission events.
