AbstractAggressiveness assessment of Fusarium head blight (FHB) is crucial for explaining the interaction in FHB–wheat association. Currently, in vitro tools have proved to be very useful in identifying disease responses in wheat to FHB infection. To update our knowledge, intra- and inter-species variability of the aggressiveness was studied in 16 isolates of four FHB species (F. culmorum, F. solani, F. verticillioides and F. equiseti) using an in vitro Petri-dish test. Three aggressiveness criteria, germination rate reduction, standardised area under disease progress curve (AUDPCstandard) and coleoptile length reduction, were evaluated on a durum wheat cultivar showing a moderate level of quantitative resistance. Regarding AUDPCstandard, intra- and inter-species variability was detected. The other two aggressiveness criteria did not distinguish isolates within and among species. The three aggressiveness criteria were not significantly correlated. However, it was not possible to cluster the isolates based on their species origins because of similarity in pathogenic level among the 16 fungal isolates. The results provide evidence that there is a differential interaction between quantitative resistance genes in wheat plants and the 16 tested FHB isolates. The values of AUDPCstandard showed significant correlation with both: disease incidence and disease severity obtained under controlled conditions (r?=?0.627** and r?=?0.539*, respectively), and disease incidence generated by field conditions (r?=?0.525*). AUDPCstandard could be of potential use in evaluating the aggressiveness of FHB in adult wheat plants under controlled and field conditions. 相似文献

The aggressiveness of 32 Fusarium graminearum strains isolated from durum wheat cultivated in Northern-Central Italy was assessed. The chemotype (15-acetyldeoxynivalenol-, 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol- or nivalenol-producer) of each strain was characterized with multiplex PCR. Two aggressiveness assays (single floret inoculation and the Petri-dish test), which yielded three aggressiveness indices, were used. One strain from southern Italy (moderately aggressive) was added as the positive control to evaluate the accuracy of the aggressiveness quantification in both assays. The results showed that all 32 F. graminearum strains are pathogenic and a wide range of aggressiveness levels was observed. The positive control strain is pathogenic and showed moderately aggressive in both assays, thus indicated that our aggressiveness quantifications are valid. Six highly aggressive strains, representing all three chemotypes, were stable in the different aggressiveness assays. There was no significant difference in aggressiveness among the three different chemotypes (P = 0.909–0.972) determined by three aggressiveness indices. Highly significant correlations of AUDPCstandard to mean and terminal disease severity (r = 0.91, P < 0.001 in both cases) reveal the potential of using the Petri-dish test for selection of F. graminearum inocula with the proper and/or varying aggressiveness levels for breeding purposes. 相似文献

Comparative pathogenicity of Fusarium graminearum isolates
from China revealed by wheat coleoptile and floret inoculations 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Fusarium head blight (FHB) or scab caused by Fusarium species is an economically important disease on small grain cereal crops worldwide. Accurate assessments of the pathogenicity of fungal isolates is a key obstacle toward a better understanding of the Fusarium-wheat scab system. In this study, a new laboratory method for inoculation of wheat coleoptiles was developed, which consists of cutting off the coleoptile apex, covering the cut apex with a piece of filter paper soaked in conidial suspension, and measuring the lengths of brown lesions 7 days post inoculation. After coleoptile inoculation, distinct brown lesions in the diseased stems were observed, in which the presence of the fungus was verified by PCR amplification with F.␣graminearum Schwable-specific primers. Coleoptile inoculation of six wheat varieties indicated that a highly susceptible wheat variety was more suitable as a differentiating host for the pathogenicity assay. Analysis of the coleoptiles inoculated with a set of 58 different isolates of F. graminearum showed a significant difference in the lengths of the lesions, forming the basis by which pathogenicity of the isolates was assessed. Field inoculation of florets of three wheat varieties over 2 years revealed significant differences in pathogenicity among the 58 isolates, and that the highly resistant and highly susceptible wheat varieties were more appropriate and stable for pathogenicity assessment in field trials. Comparative analyses of eight inoculation experiments of wheat with 58 F. graminearum isolates showed significant direct linear correlations (P<0.001) between coleoptile and floret inoculations. These results indicate that the wheat coleoptile inoculation is a simple, rapid and reliable method for pathogenicity studies of F.␣graminearum in wheat. 相似文献

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is an important disease throughout many of the world wheat-growing areas that have humid to semi-humid
climate. The infection happens mainly during the anthesis of the wheat, when there have been favorable conditions of moisture
and temperature. The direct relation of the infection to environmental factors makes possible the formulation of mathematical
models that predict the disease. The causal agent of the FHB of the spike of wheat is attributed principally to Fusarium graminearum. High economic losses due yield decrease have been recorded in Argentina. In the present work, 67 isolates of Fusarium spp. were obtained from samples of wheat grains from Pampas region from 15 locations distributed in Buenos Aires, Entre Ríos,
Santa Fe and Córboba provinces during 2006 and 2007 wheat-growing seasons. The identification of species from monosporic isolates
was carried out by morphological characterization and use of species-specific PCR-based assays. Both identification criteria
were necessary and complementary for the species determination, since in some cases the molecular identification was not specific.
Scanty presence of F. graminearum was observed in 2006 wheat-growing season coinciding with the lack of favorable meteorological conditions for producing FHB
infection events. High presence of F. graminearum isolates was observed in 2007 wheat-growing season, in accordance with moderate incidence of the disease according to spatial
distribution of FHB incidence values. The aim of this report was to identify the causal agent of the FHB disease by different
taxonomic criteria and to relate its occurrence with disease incidence values predicted by a weather-based model in Argentina. 相似文献

The impact of moisture on the development of Fusarium head blight (FHB) and accumulation of deoxynivalenol (DON) in Fusarium-infected wheat was examined. The field experiments were designed as split-split-plot with five replicates. Main plots were
durations of mist-irrigation [14, 21, 28 and 35 days after inoculation (DAI)]; sub-plots were wheat cultivar; and sub-sub-plots
were F. graminearum isolates differing in aggressiveness and DON production capacity. The wheat cultivars ‘Alsen’ (moderately resistant), ‘2375’
(moderately susceptible) and ‘Wheaton’ (susceptible) were inoculated at anthesis. Severity of FHB was assessed 21 days after
inoculation. Visually scabby kernels (VSK) and mycotxin content (DON, 15-AcDON, 3-AcDON and nivalenol) were determined on
harvested grain. The damage to grain, as measured by VSK, was significantly lower in the treatments receiving the least amount
of mist-irrigation (14 DAI) suggesting that extended moisture promotes disease development. DON was, however, significantly
lower in the 35-DAI misting treatment than in treatments receiving less post-inoculation moisture. The reduction of DON observed
in treatments receiving extended mist-irrigation was greatest in ‘Wheaton’ which recorded the highest FHB severity, VSK and
DON of the cultivars examined. Our results suggest that DON and other trichothecenes may be reduced by late-season moisture
despite increased grain colonization. We suggest that leaching may explain much of the reduction of mycotoxins, and that differences
in tissue morphology and metabolism may determine the rate of leaching from specific tissues. 相似文献

Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by Fusarium graminearum and F. culmorum is a devastating disease with high effects on grain yield and quality. We developed spring wheat lines incorporating the highly effective FHB resistance quantitative trait loci (QTL) Fhb1 and Qfhs.ifa‐5A. Whether these QTL lead to competition within Fusarium populations in the field resulting in isolates with higher aggressiveness has not been analysed. The aims of this study were to determine (i) the aggressiveness potential of F. graminearum and F. culmorum isolates, (ii) competition effects of these isolates in binary mixtures and (iii) the stability of resistant hosts. Six F. graminearum, two F. culmorum isolates and seven binary mixtures containing these isolates were tested for their aggressiveness and mycotoxin production at two locations in South Germany in 2007 and 2008. Host lines were four spring wheat lines containing the resistance QTL Fhb1 and/or Qfhs.ifa‐5A or none of them and one standard variety. Re‐isolates were sampled from plots inoculated with the binary mixtures to identify the percentage of each isolate in the mixture by simple sequence repeat markers. Resistant host lines reacted as expected and had a high stability to all isolates and mixtures. Only less important host × mixture interactions were detected. Aggressiveness among isolates and mixtures was significantly different. Type and amount of mycotoxin and high single isolate aggressiveness were not necessarily advantageous in the mixture. However, both F. culmorum isolates outcompeted F. graminearum isolates. Significant deviations from the inoculated 1 : 1 proportions occurred in 34 of 49 cases, illustrating that competition effects appeared in the mixtures. These differences depended mainly on the year and not on the level of host resistance. We conclude that resistance should not be affected by the Fusarium isolates and mixtures. 相似文献

Fusarium head blight (FHB), also called scab, is a devastating and insidious disease of cereals including wheat (Triticum spp.) and barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) worldwide. Apart from direct yield losses, the most serious concern about FHB is the contamination of the crop with mycotoxins, which pose a health risk to human and livestock. Recent research reported that phylogenetic species F. asiaticum (Fa) and F. graminearum (Fg) were the major causal agents of FHB from infected wheat heads in China. To investigate the population structure of Fusarium species in China by species‐specific as well as the chemotype‐specific markers, sequence‐related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers were screened on representative isolates of F. asiaticum‐NIV, F. asiaticum‐ 3ADON and F. graminearum‐15ADON to find amplification products characteristic of either species or chemotypes. Selected amplified fragments were cloned and sequenced so that sequence‐characterized amplified region (SCAR) primer pairs could be developed which permit specific detection of Fusarium species using conventional PCR. Primer pairs SCAR‐Fa1 and SCAR‐Fg1 were confirmed to be able to amplify specific products only in F. asiaticum and F. graminearum isolates, respectively. These species‐specific primers were applied to determine genetic division of F. asiaticum and F. graminearum isolates collected in Yangtze–Huaihe valley. The results indicated that F. asiaticum was the predominant species causing FHB in this wheat production area. It is the first report that SRAP markers were adapted for species characterization in Fusarium isolates. 相似文献

Summary Osmotic and specific ion effect are the most frequently mentioned mechanisms by which saline substrates reduce plant growth.
However, the relative importance of osmotic and specific ion effect on plant growth seems to vary depending on the drought
and/or salt tolerance of the plant under study. We studied the effects of several single salts of Na+ and Ca2+−NaCl, NaNO3, Na2SO4, NaHCO3, Na2CO3, and Ca(NO3)2—on the germination and root and coleoptile growth of two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars, TAM W-101 and Sturdy, the former being more drought tolerant than the latter. The concentrations used were:
0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.08, 0.16, and 0.32 mol L−1. Significant two- and three-way interactions were observed between cultivar, kind of salt, and salt concentration for germination,
growth of coleoptile and root, and root/coleoptile ratio. Salts differed significantly (P<0.001) in their effect on seed germination, coleoptile and root growth of both cultivars.
Germination of TAM W-101 seeds was consistently more tolerant than that of Sturdy to NaCl, CaCl2, Ca(NO3)2, and NaHCO3 salts at concentrations of 0.02, 0.04, 0.08, 0.16 mol L−1. The osmotic potential, at which the germination of wheat seeds was reduced to 50% of that of the control, was different
depending on the kind of salt used in the germination medium. NaCl at low concentrations (0.02 and 0.04 mol L−1) stimulated the germination of both wheat cultivars. At concentrations of 0.02 to 0.16 mol L−1, Ca2+ salts (CaCl2 and Ca(NO3)2) were consistently more inhibitory than the respective Na+ salts (NaCl and NaNO3) for germination of Sturdy. This did not consistently hold true for TAM W-101. Among the Na+ salts, NaCl was the least toxic and NaHCO3 and Na2CO3 were the most toxic for seed germination.
Root and coleoptile (in both wheat cultivars) differed in their response to salts. This differential response of coleoptile
and root to each salt resulted in seedlings with a wide range of root/coleoptile ratios. For example, the root/coleoptile
ratio of cultivar TAM W-101 changed from 2.09 (in the control) to 3.77, 3.19, 2.8, 2.44, 1.31, 0.32, and 0.0 when subjected
to 0.08 mol L−1 of Na2SO4, NaCl, CaCl2, NaNO3, Ca(NO3)2, NaHCO3, and Na2CO3, respectively. Na2CO3 at 0.08 mol L−1 inhibited root growth to such an extent that germinated wheat seeds contained coleoptile but no roots. The data indicate
that, apart from the clear and more toxic effects of NaHCO3 and Na2CO3 and lesser toxic effect of NaCl on germination and seedling growth, any toxicity-ranking of other salts done at a given concentration
and for a given tissue growth may not hold true for other salt concentrations, other tissues and/or other cultivars.
The more drought-tolerant TAM W-101, when compared to the less drought tolerant Sturdy, showed higher tolerance (at most concentrations)
to NaCl, CaCl2, Ca(NO3)2 and NaHCO3 during its seed germination and to Na2SO4 and CaCl2 for its root growth. This supports other reports that some drought-tolerant wheat cultivars are more tolerant to NaCl. In
contrast, the coleoptile growth of drought-sensitive Sturdy was noticeably more tolerant to NaNO3, Ca(NO3)2 and NaHCO3 than that of drought-tolerant TAM W-101. Based on the above and the different root/coleoptile ratios observed in the presence
of various salts, it is concluded that in these wheat cultivars: a) coleoptile and root tissues are differently sensitive
to various salts, and b) at the germination stage, tolerance to certain salts is higher in the more drought-tolerant cultivar. 相似文献

Effects of Fusarium graminearum Metabolites on Wheat Tissue in Relation to Fusarium Head Blight Resistance 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat is caused by Fusarium graminearum which produces many secondary metabolites including the trichothecene mycotoxins deoxynivalenol (vomitoxin) and 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol. Coleoptile tissue segements from 14 spring wheat cultivars were exposed to the F. graminearum metabolites deoxynivalenol, 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol, butenolide (all known mycotoxins), sambucinol, culmorin and dihydroxycalonectrin in a bioassay. The tissue of most cultivars was inhibited, at a concentration of 10?6M by the trichothecenes tested and up to 10?3M for the other compounds. Deoxynivalenol and 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol, which affect protein synthesis at the ribosome, are therefore potent phytotoxins in addition to being mycotoxins. The resistance or susceptibility of each cultivar to FHB was established in a field experiment. A comparison of the two sets of data indicated that resistant cultivars could tolerate much higher concentrations of the metabolites tested than susceptible cultivars. Some resistant material can tolerate 10 to 1000 times the concentration of the trichothecenes, compared with susceptible cultivars, with no effect on growth. The data suggest that it may be possible to screen germplasm rapidly for FHB resistance in vitro and a new type of resistance in wheat to this disease is proposed based on the apparent insensitivity to trichothecenes by resistant cultivars, additional to the three types of resistance described in the literature. 相似文献

Presented study focused on the influence of Cochliobolus sativus isolates origin on pathogenicity towards wheat and barley seedlings in comparison with pathogenicity of certain Fusarium species and Microdochium nivale. The efficacy of fungicide seed treatment against C. sativus was estimated. The C. sativus isolates were collected from different locations and were isolated from wheat, barley and sunflower seeds. The pathogenicity
of C. sativus, Fusarium species and M. nivale towards germinating seedlings were expressed as germination (GA) retardation and coleoptile growth rate retardation (CGR).
Of wheat only, the CGR was significantly influenced by the isolate origin. The C. sativus isolates obtained from sunflower seeds were the most aggressive. Of the barley seeds, the barley isolates were the most aggressive.
Barley was significantly more susceptible to damage by C. sativus isolates than wheat. The pathogenicity of tested fungal species declined in the order: F. culmorum, F. graminearum, C. sativus, F. avenaceum, M. nivale, F. poae for both barley and wheat. The results highlighted high pathogenicity potential of C. sativus equal to that of F. avenaceum and M. nivale. The symptoms of C. sativus on coleoptile and roots were very similar or the same as the symptoms caused by Fusarium species and M. nivale, except of white, pink or red colours.
Of wheat sprouts, the fungicide efficacy (FE) against C. sativus declined in the order: tebuconazole + thiram, carboxin + thiram, quazatine, difenoconazole, iprodione + triticonazole (in
term of GA) and carboxin + thiram, iprodione + triticonazole, tebuconazole + thiram, difenoconazole, quazatine (in term of
CGR). In barley, the FE declined in the order: carboxin + thiram, iprodione + triticonazole, tebuconazole + thiram, difenoconazole,
quazatine (in term of GA) and carboxin + thiram, tebuconazole + thiram, difenoconazole, iprodione + triticonazole, quazatine
(in term of CGR). 相似文献

Aggressiveness was studied in seven Plasmopara halstedii (sunflower downy mildew) parental isolates of races 100, 300, 304, 314, 704, 710 and 714 using five single zoosporangium isolates per parental isolate. Aggressiveness criteria, including percentage infection and dwarfing (reduction of hypocotyl length), were analysed in one sunflower inbred line showing a high level of quantitative resistance. Analysis of five single zoosporangium isolates of each parental isolate showed variability within parental isolate for the two aggressiveness criteria, but not for all parental isolates for percentage infection and vice versa for the reduction of hypocotyl length. Percentage infection showed high values irrespective of the parental isolate used. However, all the parental isolates caused a large reduction in seedling size except for the isolate of race 314. Although percentage infection and reduction of hypocotyl length could be used to differentiate aggressiveness in P. halstedii, it seems that these criteria played a limited role to define P. halstedii isolates according to their aggressiveness. 相似文献

Fusarium graminearum is associated with the cereal damping-off complex which reduces germination, seedling stand and yield. Fifty-two bacterial strains and six Trichoderma spp. isolated from the wheat rhizosphere were evaluated for biocontrol of seedling blight of wheat caused by F. graminearum. Their potential as biocontrol agents was tested in vitro and in the greenhouse. Isolates varied in their ability to inhibit the mycelial growth of F. graminearum in agar plate bioassays by 0–79%. This parameter was not related with biocontrol efficacy of in vivo assays. In greenhouse trials, all isolates were initially evaluated for reducing disease on wheat cultivars Klein Centauro (moderately resistant to F. graminearum) and Pro INTA Oasis (susceptible) planted in sterilized soil artificially infested with the pathogen. Among the 25 bacteria and six fungal isolates that exhibited a pronounced suppressive effect, the most efficient 10 for both cultivars were further assayed on eight cultivars (Buck Candil, Buck Catriel, Buck Chambergo, Buck Poncho, Buck Topacio, Klein Cacique, Klein Centauro and Pro INTA Oasis) potted in cultivated–inoculated soil. Three weeks after sowing, plant stand, percentage of diseased emerging seedlings, plant height and dry weight were evaluated. Among the antagonists only Stenotrophomonas maltophilia was significantly better than the control for the average of the eight cultivars for plant stand, height and dry weight. Stenotrophomonas maltophilia also caused a non-significant decrease in the percentage of diseased plants. Three strains of Bacillus cereus and one isolate of Trichoderma harzianum gave also a good control in some cultivars. The ability of these isolates to affect the infection of wheat seedlings by F. graminearum may be of potential value in field trials. 相似文献

Clover rot, an important disease in European red clover crops, is caused by Sclerotinia trifoliorum or Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Until today, little is known about the variation in aggressiveness among Sclerotinia isolates from red clover. Aggressiveness has never been correlated with morphological characteristics. Rapidly growing isolates may be more aggressive, but this was never investigated in S. trifoliorum before. Also nothing is known about the link between sclerotia production and aggressiveness. Oxalic acid is an important pathogenicity factor in Sclerotinia species, but its effect on aggressiveness is unknown in S. trifoliorum isolates. For this study, we selected 30 Sclerotinia isolates from 25 locations Europe: 26 S. trifoliorum isolates and 4 S. sclerotiorum isolates from two locations in France (Fr.A and Fr.B). For each isolate, the in vitro growth speed, sclerotia production, oxalate production and aggressiveness were analysed and correlations were estimated between aggressiveness and the other characteristics. Aggressiveness was assessed in vitro on detached leaves and in a greenhouse on young plants. Our isolates differed significantly in growth speed, sclerotia production, oxalate production and aggressiveness. The infections on detached leaves and young plants revealed interaction between isolates and plant genotypes and between isolates and cultivars, but there was no indication that pathotypes exist. In vitro growth speed and in vitro aggressiveness on detached leaves were positively correlated with aggressiveness on young plants, while sclerotia production was negatively correlated with aggressiveness on young plants. These factors can be used as predictors of aggressiveness of Sclerotinia isolates from red clover crops. 相似文献

A total of 27Fusarium culmorum isolates from Germany and 41F. graminearum isolates from Kenya were investigated for aggressiveness and mycotoxin production on wheat ears. In addition, ergosterol content of the kernels from ears inoculated withF. graminearum was determined and theF. culmorum isolates were tested for mycotoxin productionin vitro. For both pathogens, isolates markedly differed in aggressiveness. 59% and 37% of theF. culmorum isolates produced NIV and DON, respectively,in vivo andin vitro. The DON-producing isolates also produced 3-acDONin vitro. The more aggressive isolates produced mainly DON while the less aggressive isolates produced mainly NIV. 12% and 85% of theF. graminearum isolates produced NIV and DON, respectively. The highly aggressive isolates produced higher amounts of DON, aggressiveness being highly correlated to DON content in the kernels. NIV-producing isolates were less aggressive. Ergosterol content of kernels was moderately correlated to aggressiveness but highly correlated to DON content. Disease severity was associated with kernel weight reduction. 相似文献

Background
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a disease of cereal crops, which has a severe impact on wheat and barley production worldwide. Apart from reducing the yield and impairing grain quality, FHB leads to contamination of grain with toxic secondary metabolites (mycotoxins), which pose a health risk to humans and livestock. The Fusarium species primarily involved in FHB are F. graminearum and F. culmorum. A key prerequisite for a reduction in the incidence of FHB is an understanding of its epidemiology. 相似文献17.
Homothallic Fusarium graminearum (teleomorph Gibberella zeae) and anamorphic F. culmorum are destructive pathogens causing Fusarium head blight (FHB) of small‐grain cereals worldwide, while heterothallic F. pseudograminearum (G. coronicola) seems to be restricted to Australia as a FHB pathogen. In a comprehensive treatise of pathogen population genetics, this review summarizes global knowledge of genetic diversity among isolates sampled at various spatial and temporal scales, examines the mechanisms that generate this diversity and explores the implications of pathogen diversity and plasticity to resistance breeding. Despite their different modes of reproduction, there is large variation among isolates of all three species originating from different countries and continents. With a few exceptions, haplotype diversity ranges from 60 to 100% even within populations from individual fields. In F. graminearum, over 90% of the variation is found within populations, even when samples are collected from areas as small as 0.25 m2. Variation among populations is low (4–8%) with negligible population subdivision. This indicates a high level of gene flow (Nm = 8–71) with linkage equilibrium for the majority of selectively neutral molecular marker loci analysed. These findings for F. graminearum point to large random mating populations driven by occasional outcrossing, high gene flow across large geographical distances and a relatively low host‐mediated directional selection. Similar conclusions can be drawn for the Canadian population of F. pseudograminearum, but not for populations from Australia, where different pathogen ecology may have reduced the frequency of sexual recombination. Phylogenetic analyses indicate delineation of lineages in F. graminearum, often along geographically separated lines, while the related F. pseudograminearum is a single recombining species with limited or no lineage development. The anamorphic F. culmorum shows no obvious clonal structure in its population as might have been expected. High levels of diversity within fields may have been caused by balancing selection from frequent alternation between saprophytic and parasitical life cycle and/or a hidden or recently extinct teleomorph. Other mechanisms including parasexual cycles or active transposable elements may also be involved but these have not been investigated as yet. Crosses between and among F. graminearum lineages have shown a rather simple, additive inheritance of pathogenicity and aggressiveness with frequent transgressive segregation in crosses among isolates with moderate aggressiveness. This raises the spectre of highly aggressive and/or toxigenic isolates evolving if a limited range of quantitative trait locus for FHB resistance is deployed on a large scale. Combining more than one genetically distinct sources of resistance, possibly with different modes of action against the pathogen, will be necessary to avoid severe FHB outbreaks in the future. 相似文献

Abstract A total of 106 Fusarium spp. were isolated from infected roots and soil samples of wheat and rice. Of the 106 isolates, 32 from wheat, and 74 from rice, were isolated. Six Fusarium spp. (F. oxysporum, F. moniliforme, F. poae, F. graminearum, F. tricinctum and F. equiseti) were identified at specie level. In aggressiveness tests Fusarium spp. root rot causing fungi were screened out into different aggressiveness classes according to disease severity scales. The aggressiveness of Fusarium spp. was studied on wheat varieties (Inqalab-91 and chakwal-86) and on rice varieties (Basmati-385 and IRRI-6) under controlled conditions. The overall total number of aggressive isolates was higher in rice than in wheat. However, the percentage of severely aggressive isolates was high in wheat, whereas the percentage of moderately and slightly aggressiveness isolates was high in rice. In rice, five isolates were non-aggressive and on wheat 17 were non-aggressive. Random Amplified Polymorphism DNAs (RAPDs) were used to study the polymorphism and genetic variations within the population of Fusarium spp. that established to study correlation between taxonomical and genetical characters of fungi. Five random primers were used P1 (5′-AGGAGGACCC-3′), P2 (5′-ACGAGGGACT-3′), PE7 (5′-AGATGCAGCC-3′), P14 (5′-CCACAGCACG-3′) and PE20 (5′-AACGGTGACC-3′). Each of the 10-mer primers produced results based on the respective banding patterns they generated in present investigations. Primers distinguished the F. oxysporum, F. moniliforme, F. graminearum, F. tricinctum, F. poa and F. equiseti. All the tested primers yielded amplification products, and that were reproducible. Although there was some intraspecific variation with primers, some strains were similar and some were different in banding pattern. In F. oxysporum, F. moniliforme, F. graminearum, F. tricinctum, F. poa and F. equiseti were seen clustered close to one another but each primer separated them unambiguously. All primer (P1, P2, P14, PE7 and PE20) combination produced 62 bands. All primers have shown interspecific and intraspecific variations in banding patterns. 相似文献

Use of a large multiparent wheat mapping population in genomic dissection of coleoptile and seedling growth 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Identification of alleles towards the selection for improved seedling vigour is a key objective of many wheat breeding programmes. A multiparent advanced generation intercross (MAGIC) population developed from four commercial spring wheat cultivars (cvv. Baxter, Chara, Westonia and Yitpi) and containing ca. 1000 F2‐derived, F6:7 RILs was assessed at two contrasting soil temperatures (12 and 20 °C) for shoot length and coleoptile characteristics length and thickness. Narrow‐sense heritabilities were high for coleoptile and shoot length (h2 = 0.68–0.70), indicating a strong genetic basis for the differences among progeny. Genotypic variation was large, and distributions of genotype means were approximately Gaussian with evidence for transgressive segregation for all traits. A number of significant QTL were identified for all early growth traits, and these were commonly repeatable across the different soil temperatures. The largest negative effects on coleoptile lengths were associated with Rht‐B1b (?8.2%) and Rht‐D1b (?10.9%) dwarfing genes varying in the population. Reduction in coleoptile length with either gene was particularly large at the warmer soil temperature. Other large QTL for coleoptile length were identified on chromosomes 1A, 2B, 4A, 5A and 6B, but these were relatively smaller than allelic effects at the Rht‐B1 and Rht‐D1 loci. A large coleoptile length effect allele (a = 5.3 mm at 12 °C) was identified on chromosome 1AS despite the relatively shorter coleoptile length of the donor Yitpi. Strong, positive genetic correlations for coleoptile and shoot lengths (rg = 0.85–0.90) support the co‐location of QTL for these traits and suggest a common physiological basis for both. The multiparent population has enabled the identification of promising shoot and coleoptile QTL despite the potential for the confounding of large effect dwarfing gene alleles present in the commercial parents. The incidence of these alleles in commercial wheat breeding programmes should facilitate their ready implementation in selection of varieties with improved establishment and early growth. 相似文献

Species identity and trichothecene toxin potential of 560 members of the Fusarium graminearum species complex (FGSC) collected from diseased wheat, barley and maize in South Africa was determined using a microsphere-based multilocus genotyping assay. Although three trichothecene types (3-ADON, 15-ADON and NIV) were represented among these isolates, strains with the 15-ADON type predominated on all three hosts. A significant difference, however, was identified in the composition of FGSC pathogens associated with Gibberella ear rot (GER) of maize as compared to Fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat or barley (P<0.001). F. graminearum accounted for more than 85% of the FGSC isolates associated with FHB of wheat and barley (N=425), and was also the dominant species among isolates from maize roots (N=35). However, with the exception of a single isolate identified as an interspecific hybrid between Fusariumboothii and F. graminearum, GER of maize (N=100) was exclusively associated with F. boothii. The predominance of F. graminearum among FHB isolates, and the near exclusivity of F. boothii among GER isolates, was observed across all cultivars, collection dates, and provinces sampled. Because these results suggest a difference in host preference among species of the FGSC, we hypothesize that F. graminearum may be less well adapted to infect maize ears than other members of the FGSC. 相似文献
