A novel plant-fungal mutualism associated with fire

Bromus tectorum, or cheatgrass, is native to Eurasia and widely invasive in western North America. By late spring, this annual plant has dispersed its seed and died; its aboveground biomass then becomes fine fuel that burns as frequently as once every 3-5 y in its invaded range. Cheatgrass has proven to be better adapted to fire there than many competing plants, but the contribution of its fungal symbionts to this adaptation had not previously been studied. In sampling cheatgrass endophytes, many fire-associated fungi were found, including Morchella in three western states (New Mexico, Idaho, and Washington). In greenhouse experiments, a New Mexico isolate of Morchella increased both the biomass and fecundity of its local cheatgrass population, thus simultaneously increasing both the probability of fire and survival of that event, via more fuel and a greater, belowground seed bank, respectively. Re-isolation efforts proved that Morchella could infect cheatgrass roots in a non-mycorrhizal manner and then grow up into aboveground tissues. The same Morchella isolate also increased survival of seed exposed to heat typical of that which develops in the seed bank during a cheatgrass fire. Phylogenetic analysis of Eurasian and North American Morchella revealed that this fire-associated mutualism was evolutionarily novel, in that cheatgrass isolates belonged to two phylogenetically distinct species, or phylotypes, designated Mel-6 and Mel-12 whose evolutionary origin appears to be within western North America. Mutualisms with fire-associated fungi may be contributing to the cheatgrass invasion of western North America.     

Molecular characterization of European and Egyptian isolates of Sclerotium cepivorum,the incitant of onion white rot

Abstract

The tested European and Egyptian isolates of Sclerotium cepivorum were able to infect Giza 6 onion cultivar causing white rot disease with a different degrees of disease severity (ranging from sever to weak). The pattern of esterase isozymes produced by the tested isolates of the pathogen showed two main bands (arrows) which were different in density. Such differences in density of bands were present in every run and therefore appear to be indicators for differences among the tested isolates. Analysis of the protein pattern of the tested isolates of the pathogen indicated that the tested isolates had major proteins of a molecular weight of 52, 36, 23 and 16 kDa. Variation between isolates was detected by presence of bands of low molecular weight. Isolate Nos. 1, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 13 had a band at 17 kDa, whereas isolate Nos. 2, 3, 6, 11, 12, 14, and 15 had a band at 20 kDa. Using RAPD analysis to evaluate the genetic diversity of the tested isolates indicated that the tested field population of the pathogen was genetically heterogeneous but shared a number of common bands with molecular weights ranging from 650 to 2500 bp. Based on the DNA banding pattern the tested isolates can be assigned to seven genetically different groups. All tested isolates produced a band at 2500 bp except isolate No. 7. No correlation was exibited between patterns esterase isozmes, protein and DNA patterns of S. cepivorum isolates and their virulence or geographical origin.     

Cydia pomonella granulovirus Genotypes Overcome Virus Resistance in the Codling Moth and Improve Virus Efficiency by Selection against Resistant Hosts

Cydia pomonella granulovirus (CpGV) has been used for 15 years as a bioinsecticide in codling moth (Cydia pomonella) control. In 2004, some insect populations with low susceptibility to the virus were detected for the first time in southeast France. RGV, a laboratory colony of codling moths resistant to the CpGV-M isolate used in the field, was established with collection of resistant insects in the field followed by an introgression of the resistant trait into a susceptible colony (Sv). The resistance level (based on the 50% lethal concentrations [LC₅₀s]) of the RGV colony to the CpGV-M isolate, the active ingredient in all commercial virus formulations in Europe, appeared to be over 60,000-fold compared to the Sv colony. The efficiency of CpGV isolates from various other regions was tested on RGV. Among them, two isolates (I12 and NPP-R1) presented an increased pathogenicity on RGV. I12 had already been identified as effective against a resistant C. pomonella colony in Germany and was observed to partially overcome the resistance in the RGV colony. The recently identified isolate NPP-R1 showed an even higher pathogenicity on RGV than other isolates, with an LC₅₀ of 166 occlusion bodies (OBs)/μl, compared to 1.36 × 10⁶ OBs/μl for CpGV-M. Genetic characterization showed that NPP-R1 is a mixture of at least two genotypes, one of which is similar to CpGV-M. The 2016-r4 isolate obtained from four successive passages of NPP-R1 in RGV larvae had a sharply reduced proportion of the CpGV-M-like genotype and an increased pathogenicity against insects from the RGV colony.     

Giardia duodenalis cysts isolated from wild moose and reindeer in Norway: genetic characterization by PCR-rflp and sequence analysis at two genes

There are few genotyping studies of Giardia duodenalis isolates from cervid hosts, although a previous study suggested that cervids may be a source of infection for humans and cattle. Giardia duodenalis isolates collected from wild moose (Alces alces) and reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) in Norway during 2002 and 2003 were characterized by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fraction length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) at the beta-giardin gene, and sequence analysis at both the beta-giardin and glutamate dehydrogenase (gdh) genes. All results suggested that these isolates (n=25) belonged to assemblage A. Three different restriction patterns were obtained with PCR-RFLP, one of which has previously been associated with assemblage A. At the beta-giardin gene, sequences from six reindeer isolates and one moose isolate were identical to a previously published assemblage A sequence from G. duodenalis cysts isolated from dairy calves. The other 10 moose isolates could be divided into five groups, with between two and 14 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the published genotype A2. At the gdh gene, three different sequences were obtained, differing from each other by between one and 15 SNPs and which have all been previously published as genotype A1, but with different specific hosts. Grouping of the isolates based on the sequences from both genes gave complex results; whereas all the G. duodenalis isolates from reindeer grouped together, two moose isolates, which had identical sequences at the beta-giardin gene, had sequences that differed from each other by 15 SNPs at the gdh gene. The results of these studies, together with the large Norwegian populations of these cervids and the amount of fecal matter they produce, indicate that moose and reindeer may be significant reservoirs of G. duodenalis infection in Norway, which may be of importance to veterinary and public health.     

Sequence analysis of the Czech Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) isolate Korneta-Nemilkov

The nucleotide sequence was determined for Czech potato mop-top virus (PMTV) isolate Korneta-Nemilkov, found in the potato field situated in South Bohemia. The nucleotide and amino acid sequences were compared with other PMTV isolates available in databases. The sequence identity was always >99% when Czech isolate RNA 2 and RNA 3 sequences were compared with each of the 3 Danish isolates and with Sw isolate, and slightly lower when compared to Scottish isolates. Similarity of deduced proteins was 100% for 5 out of 6 proteins used in comparison of Czech isolate with Danish isolate 54-15. The only difference between 2 isolates was found in coat protein (CP) gene. Interestingly, the CP of the Czech isolate seems to be 100% identical to the one of Sw, while many changes were found in the region encoding TGBp2, TGBp3 and cysteine-rich protein (CRP) for these 2 isolates. The lowest similarity scores were found when comparing the Czech isolate CRP with CRP of Scottish isolates.     

Complete nucleotide sequence of the 6 kb element and conserved cytochrome b gene sequences among Indian isolates of Plasmodium falciparum.

The malaria parasite contains a nuclear genome with 14 chromosomes and two extrachromosomal DNA molecules of 6 kb and 35 kb in size. The smallest genome, known as the 6 kb element or mitochondrial DNA, has been sequenced from several Plasmodium falciparum isolates because this is a potential drug target. Here we describe the complete nucleotide sequence of this element from an Indian isolate of P. falciparum. It is 5967 bp in size and shows 99.6% homology with the 6 kb element of other isolates. The element contains three open reading frames for mitochondrial proteins-cytochrome oxidase subunit I (CoI), subunit III (CoIII) and cytochrome b (Cyb) which were found to be expressed during blood stages of the parasite. We have also sequenced the entire cyb gene from several Indian isolates of P. falciparum. The rate of mutation in this gene was very low since 12 of 14 isolates showed the identical sequence. Only one isolate showed a maximum change in five amino acids whereas the other isolate showed only one amino acid change. However, none of the Indian isolates showed any change in those amino acids of cyb which are associated with resistance to various drugs as these drugs are not yet commonly used in India.     

FI-1045: A Profile of a Commercially Useful Isolate of Metarhizium anisopliae var. anisopliae

The isolate FI-1045 is the basis of a mycoinsecticide, BioCane TM granules recently registered for the control of greyback canegrub, Dermolepida albohirtum (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Melolonthinae) in Australian sugarcane fields. The isolate was obtained from a naturally infected larva of D. albohirtum collected from Tully in north Queensland. The isolate can be distinguished from others infecting the same insect and also other species of canegrub by means of RAPD patterns and sequence data from the ITS region. A comparison of a stored FI-1045 isolate with three derived isolates which had different histories of host-passage, showed no variation in RAPD pattern. All isolates grew well at temperatures between 20 and 30°C but did not grow at 35°C and grew slowly at 15°C. However, on potato dextrose agar, the original FI-1045 grew more rapidly and did not produce as much pigment as the derived isolates. It is speculated that this difference was due to the storage method used with the original FI-1045 being stored at -70°C and the other isolates being freeze-dried. Bioassays against third instar greyback canegrubs gave a mean LC 50 of 8.7 ×10 4 conidia g -1 peat substrate after 10 weeks. Using Tenebrio molitor as a host, it was found that conidia taken directly from the infected insect were similar in virulence to the cultured FI-1045. Using injection of culture filtrate as the assay method, it was found that FI-1045 produced destruxins. In laboratory host range tests, a dose of 10 6 conidia g -1 peat killed 96% of southern oneyear canegrubs, Antitrogus consanguineius , 85% of Lepidiota picticollis and less than 30% of the other five species of canegrub tested.     

Genetic control of immunity to turnip mosaic virus in winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus ssp. oleifera) and the effect of foreign isolates of the virus

Immunity to a UK isolate (UK 1) of turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) was studied in eight lines of oilseed rape selected from cv Rafal. Six of these lines were uniformly immune and two segregated. Segregation ratios in the F₂ generation of reciprocal crosses between two uniformly immune lines and two uniformly susceptible cultivars (Mikado and Yeoman) showed that immunity was controlled by a dominant nuclear allele. The immunity was confirmed by the inability to detect virus particles in mechanically inoculated plants by back inoculations, ELISA and ISEM tests. Plants were immune to repeated inoculations and aphid transmissions. The immunity was effective against one other UK isolate and two German isolates of TuMV. Another UK isolate (UK 3) and a Greek isolate partially overcame the immunity causing local infection and a Canadian and a Danish isolate overcame it completely causing systemic mosaic-type symptoms. When these immunity-breaking strains were tested against swede line 165 which is also immune to UK 1 TuMV, the Canadian isolate overcame the immunity whereas the Danish isolate did not. Using this swede line, one susceptible and one immune line of oilseed rape as differentials, four distinct groups of TuMV isolates could be identified. Selections of oilseed rape immune to UK TuMV isolates were more severely affected by the Canadian TuMV than UK TuMV susceptible selections. The gene determining immunity to TuMV had no pleiotropic effect on susceptibility to cauliflower mosaic virus. The implications on these findings in relation to breeding for virus resistance are discussed.     

Characterization of Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae isolates for management of tarnished plant bug,Lygus lineolaris (Hemiptera: Miridae)

Selected morphological and physiological characteristics of four Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin isolates and one Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschnikoff) Sorokin isolate, which are highly pathogenic to Lygus lineolaris (Palisot de Beauvois) (Hemiptera: Miridae), were determined. There were significant differences in conidial size, viability, spore production, speed of germination, relative hyphal growth, and temperature sensitivity. Spore viability after incubation for 24h at 20 degrees C ranged from 91.4 to 98.6% for the five isolates tested. Spore production on quarter-strength Sabouraud dextrose agar plus 0.25% (w/v) yeast extract after 10 days incubation at 20 degrees C ranged from 1.6x10(6) to 15.5x10(6)conidia/cm(2). One B. bassiana isolate (ARSEF 1394) produced significantly more conidia than the others. Spore germination was temperature-dependant for both B. bassiana and M. anisopliae. The time required for 50% germination (TG(50)) ranged from 25.0 to 30.9, 14.0 to 16.6, and 14.8 to 18.0h at 15, 22, and 28 degrees C, respectively. Only the M. anisopliae isolate (ARSEF 3540) had significant spore germination at 35 degrees C with a TG(50) of 11.8h. A destructive sampling method was used to measure the relative hyphal growth rate among isolates. Exposure to high temperature (40-50 degrees C) for 10min had a negative effect on conidial viability. The importance of these characteristics in selecting fungal isolates for management of L. lineolaris is discussed.     

Serological and biological characterisation of isolates of barley yellow dwarf virus in Sweden in 1983

In 1983, cereal plants showing symptoms of barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV), collected from 15 localities in Sweden, were tested for BYDV using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Antisera against two Swedish isolates of BYDV were used, a mild isolate (27/77) transmitted specifically by Sitobion avenae and a severe one (39/78) transmitted mainly by Rhopalosiphum padi. No virus was detected in 57 of 607 plants of oats and barley tested. Of the 550 plants in which virus was detected, 366 were infected with viruses similar to isolate 27/77, 116 with viruses similar to 39/78 and the remaining 68 reacted strongly with both antisera. When tested, the latter isolates were shown to be mixtures. Thirty-nine selected samples were also tested with antisera against the USA isolates RPV, RMV, MAV and PAV, and for transmission by S. avenae and R. padi. Twenty-six of these samples were transmitted specifically by S. avenae, one was transmitted only by R. padi and the remaining 12 samples were shown to be infected with a mixture of an S. avenae-specific isolate and one transmitted mainly by R. padi. Antisera against PAV and MAV each detected all isolates tested and the results were very similar to those with the antisera to the 39/78 and 27/77 isolates, respectively. None of the field isolates reacted with antisera against RMV or RPV. It was concluded that 1983 was an epidemic year for BYDV in Sweden and that isolates specifically transmitted by S. avenae predominated. Symptoms of infection by these isolates on oat plants ranged from mild to severe.
