Trichoderma harzianum is the collective name of a set of asexual fungal strains which exhibit heterogeneity in genome structure, DNA sequence and
behavior. Contour-clamped homogeneous field (CHEF) electrophoresis of the chromosomes of ten isolates of T. harzianum revealed six clearly distinct electrophoretic karyotypes. Of the ten isolates analyzed, four (GH12, G109, Y and YF) could
be classified in a single group with identical karyotypes, while the strains T35 and 315 formed a second group. The genome
size characteristic of the different isolates fell into a broad range varying from 29.6 to 56.1 Mb. Gene assignments to the
resolved chromosomes showed that all genes analyzed were localized on equivalent chromosomes in the isolates belonging to
the same group. Analysis of randomly amplified polymorphic DNAs from the ten isolates confirmed the classification into groups
and allowed us to distinguish between isolates T35 and 315, as well as between isolates GH12, G109, Y and YF. Direct confrontation
assays using isolates of the same group showed compatible interactions, whereas the same experiment carried out with isolates
of different groups showed an incompatible interaction characterized by an area of cell damage. Microscopic observation of
the compatible interactions showed hyphal fusions between the isolates, similar to those described for vegetative compatible
groups in other fungi. The molecular karyotypes correlated well with the compatibility of the isolates. In addition, we have
evaluated both electrophoretic karyotype and randomly amplified polymorphic DNAs analysis as criteria for grouping isolates
within the genus according to their capacity for biocontrol of plant pathogens.

Progeny from a sexual outcross between opposite mating types of Pythium sylvaticum were analyzed for inheritance of RFLP and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Although most were inherited in expected Mendelian frequencies, several were not. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis was employed to examine these unexpected patterns of marker inheritance at a karyotypic level. Parental oogonial and antheridial isolates had different electrophoretic karyotypes and minimum number of chromosome-sized DNAs (13 and 12, respectively), however, summation of the sizes of all chromosomal bands for each isolate was similar at ~37 Mb. Progeny karyotypes differed significantly from each other and the parental isolates, ranging in estimated minimum number of chromosome-sized DNAs from 9 to 13 and the summation of band sizes within each isolate from 28.1 to 39.0 Mb. For the eight isolates most extensively analyzed, 80% of the progeny chromosome-sized DNAs were nonparental in size or hybridization grouping of cDNA clones and isolated RAPD markers. Based on the results of Southern analysis it appears that length mutations and perhaps aneuploidy and translocations have contributed to generation of karyotypic polymorphisms. Nineteen field isolates of P. sylvaticum collected from the same location also exhibited significantly different karyotypes, suggesting that the meiotic instability observed in the laboratory also is occurring in field populations. 相似文献

We produced electrophoretic karyotypes of the reference strain E150 and of seven other isolates from different geographical
origins to study the genomic organization of the dimorphic yeast Yarrowia lipolytica. These karyotypes differed in the number and size of the chromosomal bands. The karyotype of the reference stain E150 consisted
of five bands of between 2.6 and 4.9 Mb in size. This strain contained at least five rDNA clusters, from 190 to 620 kb in
size, which were scattered over most of the chromosomes. The assignment of 43 markers, including rRNA genes and three centromeres,
to the E150 bands defined five linkage groups. Hybridization to the karyotypes of other isolates with pools of markers of
each linkage group showed that linkage groups I, II, IV and V were conserved in the strains tested whereas group III was not
and was split between at least two chromosomes in most strains. Use of a meganuclease I-SceI site targeted to one locus of E150 linkage group III showed that two chromosomes actually comigrated in band III of this
strain. Our results are compatible with six chromosomes defining the haploid complement of strains of Y. lipolytica and that, despite an unprecedented chromosome length polymorphism, the overall structure of the genome is conserved in different
isolates.

We used randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR to estimate genetic variation among isolates of Trichoderma associated with green mold on the cultivated mushroom Agaricus bisporus. Of 83 isolates examined, 66 were sampled during the recent green mold epidemic, while the remaining 17 isolates were collected just prior to the epidemic and date back to the 1950s. Trichoderma harzianum biotype 4 was identified by RAPD analysis as the cause of almost 90% of the epidemic-related episodes of green mold occurring in the major commercial mushroom-growing region in North America. Biotype 4 was more closely allied to T. harzianum biotype 2, the predominant pathogenic genotype in Europe, than to the less pathogenic biotype 1 and Trichoderma atroviride (formerly T. harzianum biotype 3). No variation in the RAPD patterns was observed among the isolates within biotype 2 or 4, suggesting that the two pathogenic biotypes were populations containing single clones. Considerable genetic variation, however, was noted among isolates of biotype 1 and T. atroviride from Europe. Biotype 4 was not represented by the preepidemic isolates of Trichoderma as determined by RAPD markers and PCR amplification of an arbitrary DNA sequence unique to the genomes of biotypes 2 and 4. Our findings suggest that the onset of the green mold epidemic in North America resulted from the recent introduction of a highly virulent genotype of the pathogen into cultivated mushrooms. 相似文献

Electrophoretic karyotypes and chromosome numbers in Candida species 总被引:35,自引:0,他引:35
The electrophoretic karyotypes of five Candida albicans isolates and of five other Candida species have been determined, using orthogonal field alternating gel electrophoresis (OFAGE). None of the C. albicans isolates had the same electrophoretic karyotype. By comparing all five strains, we arrived at a chromosome number of nine to ten, but since the organism is diploid, we cannot distinguish genetically different chromosomes from homologues which resolve. We determined minimal chromosome numbers of 9 for Candida stellatoidea, 10 for C. glabrata and 6 for C. guilliermondii. 相似文献

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis was used to compare the electrophoretic karyotypes of isolates of Paecilomyces fumosoroseus. Electrophoretic karyotypes of P. fumosoroseus exhibit a high degree of similarity among the isolates. However, hybridization data indicated that similar sized chromosomes among the isolates did not always bear the same genetic information. 相似文献

A Pseudomonas 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG)-producing population that occurred naturally on the roots, in rhizosphere soil of Zea mays and in the nonrhizosphere soil was investigated in order to assess the microbial diversity at five stages of plant growth. A total of 1,716 isolates were obtained, and 188 of these isolates were able to produce DAPG. DAPG producers were isolated at each stage of plant growth, indicating that the maize rhizosphere is colonized by natural DAPG producers throughout development. The frequency of DAPG producers was very low in the first stage of plant growth and increased over time. An analysis of the level of biodiversity of the DAPG producers at the species level was performed by comparing the AluI restriction patterns of the 16S ribosomal DNAs (rDNAs) amplified by PCR from 167 isolates. This comparison allowed us to cluster the isolates into four amplified rDNA restriction analysis (ARDRA) groups, and the main group (ARDRA group 1) contained 89.8% of the isolates. The diversity of the 150 isolates belonging to ARDRA group 1 was analyzed by the random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) technique. An analysis of RAPD patterns by a molecular variance method revealed that there was a high level of genetic diversity in this population and that the genetic diversity was related to plant age. Finally, we found that some of the DAPG producers, which originated from all stages of plant growth, had the same genotype. These DAPG producers could be exploited in future screening programs for biocontrol agents. 相似文献

Trichoderma harzianum is a widely distributed soil fungus that antagonies numerous fungal phytopathogens. In this study, interactions between theT. harzianum isolates andAscochyta rabiei in experiments on agar growth medium were studied. All testedT. harzianum isolates produced metabolite that inhibited growth ofA. rabiei the agent of ascochyta blight disease of chickpea in culture. Isolates ofT. harzianum produced chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase when grown in liquid cultures containingA. rabiel cell wall, laminarin and chitin as sole carbon sources. Levels higher of these enzymes were induced inT. harzianum T15 isolate. 相似文献

The sexually compatible strains ofCoprinus cinereus 5302 and Dd 13 revealed chromosome length polymorphisms in their electrophoretic karyotypes. The dikaryon derived from two monokaryons contained a mixture of the two electrophoretic patterns. F1 progenies were isolated by crossingC. cinereus 5302 and Dd 13 strains and it showed unique karyotypes. Chromosome length polymorphisms of both parental strains were inherited at random in the F1 progenies. As a result, several novel electrophoretic karyotypes which had not been observed in either parental strains were found in the F1 progeny. The rDNA probe hybridized with one chromosome in both parental strains, with two chromosomes in the hybridization pattern of both parental strains in the dikaryon, and with one to two chromosomes in the F1 progenies. The relation between mating type and hybridization pattern has thus not been made clear in the case of F1 progeny. 相似文献

Molecular typing and antifungal susceptibility of clinical sequential isolates of Cryptococcus neoformans from Sao Paulo State, Brazil 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The antifungal susceptibility profiles and the genetic variability of 83 sequential clinical isolates of Cryptococcus neoformans, including four Cryptococcus gattii isolates, obtained from 38 Sao Paulo AIDS patients with cryptococcal meningitis were assessed by electrophoretic karyotyping and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. The majority of the Cryptococcus neoformans isolates were highly susceptible to amphotericin B and fluconazole. Twenty percent of the minimum inhibitory concentration values for amphotericin B varied from 0.5 to 1 micro g mL(-1). For fluconazole, 22% occurred in the range 8-16 mug mL(-1). Sequential isolates from nine patients showed a trend towards lower susceptibility to fluconazole, flucytosine, itraconazole and amphotericin B. The results of molecular typing by electrophoretic karyotyping and RAPD analysis showed the presence of 22 electrophoretic karyotypes (EK) and 15 RAPD profiles that were highly correlated. Our results provided evidence for the occurrence of genetic changes in some strains associated with microevolution during the course of infection. We also observed both microevolution and simultaneous coinfection with two distinct Cryptococcus neoformans strains in one patient. In some patients, we found changed EK- and RAPD patterns in association with increased MIC values. 相似文献

The selection of new isolates of Trichoderma harzianum with high suppressive activity against Fusarium oxysporum is a suitable strategy to avoid the increase of chemical pesticides. In this study, 31 isolates of Trichoderma sp. were analyzed by RAPD-PCR and five isolates of T. harzianum (T-30, T-31, T-32, T-57 and T-78) were selected. The expression of genes encoding for NAGases (exc1 and exc2), chitinases (chit42 and chit33), proteases (prb1) and β-glucanases (bgn13.1) activities and their respective in vitro enzymatic activities were measured. Dual plate confrontation assays of the isolates against F. oxysporum were also tested. Different profiles of gene expression between the different T. harzianum isolates were related to enzymatic activities values and dual plate confrontation. In this work, the T. harzianum isolates T-30 and T-78 showed the greatest mycoparasitic potential against F. oxysporum, which could lead to improved biocontrol of this phytopathogen. 相似文献

Molecular analysis was performed to detect genetic diversity in 106 Rhynchosporium secalis isolates collected from different regions of Canada using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. The isolates collected from barley cultivars having different resistance specificity to R. secalis and grown in geographically distinct regions, exhibited reproducible variation for 2–3 polymorphic PCR products per decamer primer. Analysis of 1960 RAPD markers data obtained with five primers formed 5 groups with different genetic similarity. High genetic variation was observed in R. secalis isolates obtained from resistant and susceptible cultivars of barley. Isolates collected from susceptible cultivars showed a tendency to group together, whereas isolates from resistant cultivars were divergent. R. secalis isolates infecting different barley cultivars released as resistant to the barley scald formed a specific group with UPGMA, even though all these isolates were collected from the same epidemiological region. Analysis of 15 isolates collected from one resistant cultivar Duke formed three clusters with low bootstrap values indicating high genetic diversity among the isolates present on a single host cultivar. 相似文献

A large percentage of eukaryotic genomes consist of repetitive DNA that plays an important role in the organization, size and evolution. In the case of crickets, chromosomal variability has been found using classical cytogenetics, but almost no information concerning the organization of their repetitive DNAs is available. To better understand the chromosomal organization and diversification of repetitive DNAs in crickets, we studied the chromosomes of two Gryllidae species with highly divergent karyotypes, i.e., 2n(♂) = 29,X0 (Gryllus assimilis) and 2n = 9, neo-X1X2Y (Eneoptera surinamensis). The analyses were performed using classical cytogenetic techniques, repetitive DNA mapping and genome-size estimation. Conserved characteristics were observed, such as the occurrence of a small number of clusters of rDNAs and U snDNAs, in contrast to the multiple clusters/dispersal of the H3 histone genes. The positions of U2 snDNA and 18S rDNA are also conserved, being intermingled within the largest autosome. The distribution and base-pair composition of the heterochromatin and repetitive DNA pools of these organisms differed, suggesting reorganization. Although the microsatellite arrays had a similar distribution pattern, being dispersed along entire chromosomes, as has been observed in some grasshopper species, a band-like pattern was also observed in the E. surinamensis chromosomes, putatively due to their amplification and clustering. In addition to these differences, the genome of E. surinamensis is approximately 2.5 times larger than that of G. assimilis, which we hypothesize is due to the amplification of repetitive DNAs. Finally, we discuss the possible involvement of repetitive DNAs in the differentiation of the neo-sex chromosomes of E. surinamensis, as has been reported in other eukaryotic groups. This study provided an opportunity to explore the evolutionary dynamics of repetitive DNAs in two non-model species and will contribute to the understanding of chromosomal evolution in a group about which little chromosomal and genomic information is known. 相似文献

Evaluation of Trichoderma harzianum strain T22 as biological control agent of Calonectria pauciramosa 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The objective of this research was to evaluate Trichoderma harzianum strain T22 as a biocontrol agent of collar and root rot caused by different Calonectria pauciramosa isolates. Thus, the microsclerotia-forming ability and virulence of twenty C. pauciramosa isolates were assessed. Microsclerotia production varied partially among the isolates and dual culture with T22 on carnation leaf agar revealed isolates with both high and low microsclerotia-forming ability. Inoculation tests on red clover (Triflolium pratense) demonstrated its susceptibility to the pathogen. On red clover, the degree of virulence and T22 effects in controlling infections were highly variable among the isolates tested. A nursery trial performed on Feijoa sellowiana seedlings confirmed previous results, clearly indicating virulence variability among C. pauciramosa isolates. For three isolates tested in nursery trial, T22 effectiveness in controlling infection was inversely related to their degree of virulence. Overall, T. harzianum strain T22 showed good antagonist activity in reducing microsclerotia production on carnation leaf and the incidence and severity of collar and root rot on both selected hosts. This data could be crucial in developing integrated pest management strategies in ornamental plant nurseries. 相似文献

Twenty isolates of Fusarium oxysporum from Brazil, pathogenic and non‐pathogenic to common bean, were analysed using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPDs) to study the genetic diversity. RAPD analysis using 23 oligonucleotides resulted in the amplification of 229 polymorphic and 7 monomorphic DNA fragments ranging from 234 to 2590 bp. High genetic variability was observed among the isolates, with the distances varying between 8% and 76% among pathogenic, 2% and 63% among the non‐pathogenic and 45% and 76% between pathogenic and non‐pathogenic isolates. The analysis of genetic distance data showed that the pathogenic isolates tended to group in one group and the non‐pathogenic in another. The genetic distance values of 30% among the pathogenic isolates in cluster A are compatible with the genetic distance values observed within the physiological races, but the distance values among the pathogenic isolates in clusters B and G are not compatible with the distance values observed within the race. Although our results are preliminary, it was not possible to exclude the existence of more than one race of this fungus in Brazil. 相似文献

Strain identification in situ is an important factor in the monitoring of microorganisms used in the field. In this study, we demonstrated the use of sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers to detect genomic DNA from Trichoderma harzianum 2413 from soil. Two primers (SCAR A1/SCAR A1c) were tested against DNA of 27 isolates of Trichoderma spp. and amplified a 990-bp fragment from T. atroviride 11 and a 1.5-kb fragment from T. harzianum 2413, using an annealing temperature of 68°C. These fragments showed no significant homology to any sequence deposited in the databases. The primer pair, BR1 and BR2, was designed to the 1.5-kb fragment amplified from T. harzianum 2413, generating a SCAR marker. To test the specificity of these primers, experiments were conducted using the DNA from 27 Trichoderma spp. strains and 22 field soil samples obtained from four different countries. PCR results showed that BR1 and BR2 amplified an 837-bp fragment unique to T. harzianum 2413. Assays in which total DNA was extracted from sterile and nonsterile soil samples, inoculated with spore or mycelium combinations of Trichoderma spp. strains, indicated that the BR1 and BR2 primers could specifically detect T. harzianum 2413 in a pool of mixed DNA. No other soil-microorganisms containing these sequences were amplified using these primers. To test whether the 837-bp SCAR marker of T. harzianum 2413 could be used in real-time PCR experiments, new primers (Q2413f and Q2413r) conjugated with a TaqMan fluorogenic probe were designed. Real-time PCR assays were applied using DNA from sterile and nonsterile soil samples inoculated with a known quantity of spores of Trichoderma spp. strains. 相似文献

Yeast isolates from raw and processed poultry products were characterized using PCR amplification of the internally transcribed spacer (ITS) 5.8S ribosomal DNA region (ITS-PCR), restriction analysis of amplified products, randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis, and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). ITS-PCR resulted in single fragments of 350 and 650 bp, respectively, from eight strains of Yarrowia lipolytica and seven strains of Candida zeylanoides. Digestion of amplicons with HinfI and HaeIII produced two fragments of 200 and 150 bp from Y. lipolytica and three fragments of 350, 150, and 100 bp from C. zeylanoides, respectively. Although these fragments showed species-specific patterns and confirmed species identification, characterization did not enable intraspecies typing. Contour-clamped heterogeneous electric field PFGE separated chromosomal DNA of Y. lipolytica into three to five bands, most larger than 2 Mbp, whereas six to eight bands in the range of 750 to 2,200 bp were obtained from C. zeylanoides. Karyotypes of both yeasts showed different polymorphic patterns among strains. RAPD analysis, using enterobacterial repetitive intergenic sequences as primers, discriminated between strains within the same species. Cluster analysis of patterns formed groups that correlated with the source of isolation. For ITS-PCR, extraction of DNA by boiling yeast cells was successfully used. 相似文献

Four distinct nuclear satellite DNAs from calf (Bos taurus) were isolated and the physical properties of native, single-stranded and renatured duplex molecules of each of the four satellite DNAs were studied by buoyant density-gradient centrifugation. These DNAs were localized in the calf nucleus and on calf metaphase chromosomes by in situ hybridization. In all cases, the calf satellite DNAs are preferentially situated at the centromeres of the autosomes, whereas the X and Y sex chromosomes contain little or none of the satellite DNAs. C-banding techniques showed constitutive heterochromatin at the centromeres of all the autosomes, but not on the X and Y chromosomes.Calf satellite 1 DNA (p = 1.716 g/ml) is at the centromeres of all of the autosomes. Although calf satellite II DNA (p = 1.722 g/ml) is the most widely dispersed over the karyotype, two-thirds of the grains were over the autosomal centromeres. Calf satellites III (p = 1.706 g/ml) and IV (p = 1.709 g/ml) are localized at the centromeres of most, but not all, of the autosomes. The four satellite DNAs each showed a strongly clumped distribution in interphase nuclei of both confluent and growing calf kidney cells in vitro. 相似文献

Electrophoretic karyotypes of homoxenous trypanosomatids Leptomonas peterhoffi, L. mycophilus, L. nabiculae and Leptomonas sp. have been studied by transverse alternating-field electrophoresis under varying electrophoretic conditions. From 12 to 17 chromosomal DNA bands, ranging from 370 to more than 1500 kb were detected in the karyograms of the species compared. In each pattern, some intensely stained bands could represent more than one chromosome. Taking into account the number of intensely stained bands, the karyotype of L. peterhoffi was estimated to contain at least 18 chromosomes, the karyotypes of L. mycophilus and L. nabiculae, at least 21 chromosome each, and the karyotype of Leptomonas sp. up to 20 chromosomes. Interclonal variations of electrophoretic karyotypes of 10 clones of Leptomonas sp. (cfmI-cfmX) were studied. Seven of ten clones had identical electrophoretic patterns. In the karyograms of three clones (cfmI, cfmVI, cfmVII), additional chromosomal DNA bands were observed. The obtained results suggest, that electrophoretic karyotypes cannot be used as reliable markers of species of homoxenous trypanosomatids, since intraspecies variability does occur in these parasites. 相似文献
