1. Two of the principal defences in conifer bark against attack by bark beetles and associated fungi, the flow of preformed resin and the dynamic wound response (DWR), are commonly regarded as separate, sequential responses to attack. In this paper the concentration of three preformed defences (resin, total polyphenols and lignified stone cell masses) was measured at different heights on the stem of Norway and Sitka Spruce to determine their effect on the size of lesions formed during the DWR to inoculation with three facultatively pathogenic fungi ( Phacidium coniferarum, Ophiostoma piceae and Cryptosporiopsis sp.) inoculated during the dormant season.
2. There was considerable within-tree variation in concentration of lignin and there was a dose-dependent negative effect of lignin on lesion size. The form of the relationship, however, was influenced by fungal and tree species and for some fungi, also by an individual tree effect.
3. Results suggest that resistance of conifer bark to pests and pathogens depends on an interaction between preformed and induced defences. 相似文献

Summary The fungus Aspergillus niger, an unidentified filamentous fungus (strain no. PDDCC8239) and the yeast Candida tropicalis were grown in continuous culture in stirred tank reactors at dilution retes varying between 0.02–0.1 h-1 on a bark extract medium made by dilute acid hydrolysis of Pinus radiata bark. Maximum yields were 5.1, 18.7, and 61.5 mg biomass·g-1 bark for the unidentified fungus, A. niger and C. tropicalis respectively. Culturing in a tower fermenter under otherwise identical environmental conditions increased the yield of A. niger to 27.3 mg biomass·g-1 bark. The yield of C. tropicalis represents a productivity of 0.26g biomass·l-1·h-1 which exceeds other reported values of bark fermentations. Analysis of the medium and spent broth revealed significant breakdown of tannin material by C. tropicalis during growth. This ability may be of value in the treatment of tannin-based industrial effluents. 相似文献

Germinating ascospores of Phaeocryptopus gaeumannii produce suprastomatal appressoria from which penetration pegs enter needles. Initial infection occurs between late May and early Jul and coincides with budbreak and shoot elongation. Colonization within needles is exclusively intercellular and increases continuously during Jul-May. No intracellular hyphae or haustoria were observed, but hyphae closely appressed to mesophyll and palisade cell walls are abundant by 3-5 mo after initial infection. Pseudothecial primordia begin to form in epistomatal chambers Oct-Apr, 4-9 mo after initial infection. Pseudothecial primordia developing in the epistomatal chamber are connected to the endophytic thallus by specialized cells in the substomatal chamber that have thickened apical walls and resemble phialides but are not involved in asexual reproduction. The apical wall thickenings instead appear to function as reinforcement against the turgor pressure of the guard cells, allowing cytoplasmic continuity to be maintained between the developing pseudothecium and vegetative hyphae within the needle. Concurrent with the formation of pseudothecial primorida, epiphytic hyphae emerge from the periphery of developing pseudothecia, grow across the needle surface, form numerous anastomoses and reenter the needle by producing appressoria above unoccupied stomata. Epiphytic hyphae and their associated appressoria gradually become more abundant during Oct-Jan. 相似文献

The influence of lignin degradation products on xylose fermentation by Klebsiella pneumoniae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Summary The inhibitory effects of seven closely related lignin degradation products on xylose fermentation by Klebsiella pneumoniae were studied. Compounds were added in varying concentrations. Less heavily substituted phenolics (at concentrations of, 0.1–0.4 g/l) were more inhibitory to growth and solvent production than vanillyl or syringyl derivatives. All of the cultures recovered from this inhibition after a prolonged incubation period. When the mechanism of the organism's recovery was investigated, GC and LC analysis showed that 43.5% of the vanillin was metabolized to vanillyl alcohol. Several unidentifiable compounds were also detected in trace amounts. K. pneumoniae also metabolized vanilly alcohol (54% of original supplement) and syringaldehyde; however, unlike vanillin, there was no predominant metabolite derived from these compounds. None of the metabolites derived from vanillyl alcohol could be identified while only the corresponding alcohol and trimethoxybenzene were identified among the syringaldehyde derived metabolites. 相似文献

Several clones of Douglas-fir, Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.)Franco, embryos grown in aseptic culture in the presence orabsence of the female gametophyte or a crushed aqueous extractof it, have shown striking differences in overall length, sizeand substance(s) responsible for this colour of the cotyledonsand in root length. The growth-promoting effect is diffusiblein agar, heat-stable and has detectable activity at a concentrationof about 0·1 to 1·0 per cent (v/v) in a basalnutrient medium. Evidence is provided that extracts of gametophytemay have synergistic effects with coconut water in promotingmorphogenesis of Douglas-fir cells in suspension culture.

The effect of hexoses (glucose and galactose) addition to the feed xylose mineral medium of Debaryomyces hansenii chemostat cultures grown at a constant dilution rate of 0.055 h−1 was studied. Xylitol was the major product detected amongst all tested conditions. The maximal values for xylitol yield and volumetric productivity (0.56 gg−1 xylose and 0.21 gl−1h−1, respectively) were obtained for a glucose/xylose feeding ratio of 10%, showing that the addition of small amounts of glucose, but not galactose, enhanced the xylitol production. A xylitol yield increase of 30%, compared with the sole xylose-containing feed medium, was observed. It was found that the oxygen requirement for D. hansenii growth is lower under glucose compared with xylose. Ethanol and glycerol were only produced for glucose/xylose feeding ratio above 30%. The byproducts accumulation was correlated with glucose metabolism, because a direct relationship between the increase of ethanol (and glycerol) concentration and the increase of glucose in the feed medium was found. 相似文献

Bacterial cellulose has been found to be attractive as a novel scaffold material due to its unique material properties. Porosity is the most important morphological parameter in the design of scaffolds for tissue engineering. The effects of fermentation conditions (cultivation time and inoculation volume) and post-treatment methods (alkali treatment and drying methods) on the porosities of bacterial cellulose membranes were investigated. With extended cultivation time and increased inoculation volume, more micro-fibrils were secreted by bacteria, which resulted in a more compact structure and diminished porosity. The porosities of alkali-treated bacterial cellulose membranes was in the order of K2CO3 > Na2CO3 > KOH > NaOH. Freeze-dried membranes had much higher porosity (92%) than the hot air-dried ones (65%). The experimental results suggested that bacterial cellulose with controlled porosities could be prepared by varying fermentation conditions and post-treatment methods. The resulting bacterial cellulose is regarded as a scaffold material of great potentialities. 相似文献

Effect of storage condition of tuna viscera on chemical, physical and microbiological changes of its sauce were monitored. Results based on microbial counts, protein degradation products, total volatile base (TVB), and trimethylamine (TMA) contents, showed that tuna viscera stored at room temperature underwent more deterioration than that kept in ice, especially with increasing storage time. As a result, fish sauce obtained from tuna viscera stored at room temperature for a longer time rendered the greater amino nitrogen, TVB, TMA contents as well as browning intensity. However, storage conditions had no marked effect on overall changes in chemical, physical and microbiological characteristics of sauce generated during fermentation. Additionally, fish sauce produced from tuna viscera kept at room temperature comprised lower histamine content than that prepared from fresh or ice-stored viscera. Therefore, tuna viscera stored at room temperature for up to 8h could be used for the production of fish sauce with no detrimental effect on the quality. 相似文献

Summary Plastic columns fitted with suction lysimeter plates were used to investigate the movement of ions through soil columns. The effects on this movement of temperature, nutrient concentrations, and the presence or absence of Douglas-fir seedlings were studied. The pH, alkalinity, conductivity, and cation composition of the leachates were determined as a function of time and other treatments. The data collected were used to calculate cation uptake and water loss as affected by the treatments. The processes influencing the leachate composition are discussed.Contribution no. 135 of Western Coniferous Forest Biome, IBP, Grant GB36810X. 相似文献

Preliminary investigation of the influence of pH on the solid-state refuse methanogenic fermentation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Laboratory refuse columns and bottle cultures were used to examine the responses of the interrelated metabolic processes of acid metabolism, solvent metabolism and methanogenesis of the solid-state refuse fermentation to single initial additions of exogenous buffering capacity. Refuse samples poised at neutral and alkaline pH values, by the addition of 0.2 mol/1 phosphate buffer, were found to promote acid-ogenesis to such an extent that methanogenesis was inhibited. The same inhibition was also apparent in the presence of acid pH regimes which were initially characterized by the accumulation of solvents. The possible implications of controlling pH by adding buffer to promote and exploit the refuse fermentation are discussed. 相似文献
