Distribution in time and space of resistance to the pathogenic fungus Erynia neoaphidis in the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum

Two biotypes of pea aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum, have been recognized in Australia, by their susceptibility (S) or resistance (R) to certain isolates of the fungal pathogen Erynia neoaphidis. The responses of these two biotypes to 40 isolates of the fungus have shown that the R form is largely confined to two States, New South Wales and Victoria, but appears to have recently spread into Queensland and Tasmania. There is no evidence to suggest it occurs outside Australia. Sequential sampling of two field populations of pea aphids during 1981 and 1982 showed that the proportion of R form remained stable at 10.7±3.0 and 14.6±2.6% (mean±standard error) for the two populations. Glasshouse competition experiments run at the comparatively high temperature of 25°C resulted in the R form becoming dominant even when the initial ratio was 4:1 in favour of the S form. The ecological and genetical implications are discussed.

Résumé Deux types biologiques d'Acyrthosiphon pisum ont été définis, en Australie, suivant leur sensibilité (S) ou leur résistance (R) à certains isolats du champignon pathogène Erynia neoaphidis. Les réponses des deux biotypes à 40 isolats du champignon ont montré que la forme R est essentiellement cantonnée à deux états: Nouvelle Galle due Sud et Victoria, mais a récemment gagné le Queensland et la Tasmanie. Aucun élément ne fait dire qu'elle existe hors d'Australie. Des échantillonnages séquentiels des deux populations de pucerons dans la nature en 1981 et 1982 ont montré que la proportion de la forme R est restée stable à 10,7 et 14,62 dans les deux populations. Des expériences de compétition en serre à la température relativement haute de 25°C ont rendu la forme R dominante, même quand le rapport initial était de 4/1 en faveur de la forme S. La discussion porte sur les conséquences écologiques et génétiques.

Influence of phosphorus and formononetin on isozyme expression in the Zea mays‐Glomus intraradices symbiosis

Maize (Zea mays L. cv. Great Lakes 586) plants were either inoculated with the vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungus Glomus intraradices Schenck and Smith, or grown in the presence of the isoflavone formononetin or were provided with both G. intraradices and formononetin. All plants were grown in soil containing one of five levels of inorganic P (between 8 and 110 µg g^?1 soil). By 3 weeks there were significant differences in a number of enzyme activities and in the pattern of isoenzymes in roots colonized by the VAM fungus or treated with formononetin. One NAD-malate dehydrogenase (MDH) isozyme was expressed only in mycorrhizal roots, whether treated or not with formononetin. Despite differences in the soil P level, the expression of this isozyme was not observed in non-mycorrhizal roots, indicating specific expression in the mycorrhizae. We suggest that MDH isozyme could serve as a specific, early indicator of the Zea-Glomus symbiosis. Differences in the esterase (EST) isozyme pattern were not detectable between VAM and non-VAM roots, suggesting that this enzyme system is not a good parameter for the evaluation of mycorrhizal colonization. As available P in the soil increased, total EST activity appeared to increase as well. Interestingly, total peroxidase (POX) activity increased along with P suggesting that as plant P nutrition improved, both cell wall ramification and the quantity of defense peroxidases increased as well. Total POX activity from mycorrhizal roots was inversely correlated with root colonization, indicating that there was suppression of POX activity by the host under low soil P. Most interestingly, formononetin further decreased POX activity regardless of the level of P or mycorrhizal status. This may suggest one mechanism by which formononetin enhances root VAM colonization. The presence of this isoflavone suppressed POX activity in mycorrhizal roots allowing a rapid penetration and spread of the fungus in the root cortex. The interplay between host root, soil P levels, secondary metabolites and endogenous host enzyme activities and a particular VAM fungus has a profound effect on the efficiency, duration and functioning of an endomycorrhizal symbiosis.     

The sequoia-loving sprite,a new genus and species of fungus gnat (Diptera,Mycetophilidae) from California

California is one of the most biologically diverse regions of the world, yet the diversity of fungus gnats (Mycetophilidae) remains largely undocumented within the state. A modest survey of these flies has led to the discovery of a new genus and species of gnat that lives alongside one of the most iconic trees in the world, the giant sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum). Spritella sequoiaphilagen. et sp. n. is described and illustrated and its status among other mycetophilid genera is analyzed and discussed.     

Primary structure of a chitinase-encoding gene (chi1) from the filamentous fungus Aphanocladium album: similarity to bacterial chitinases

Chitinase 1 (Chil) is the major extracellular chitinase from the hyperparasitic fungus, Aphanocladium album. We determined the complete sequence of the chromosomal and cDNA copies of the structural gene (chi1) coding for Chil. The coding region is interrupted by three short introns (55, 53 and 49 bp long). Chil is 423 aa long and begins with a stretch of 34 aa not found in the mature protein. The Chil sequence presents overall similarities with bacterial chitinases from Serratia marcescens and Bacillus circulans. Compared with other chitinases, A. album Chi1 has only two short similarity regions (12 and 8 aa long), which are also found in bacterial, yeast and some plant chitinases.     

特异腐质霉纤维素酶的研究

由腐植土中分离到一株嗜热真菌,经鉴定为特异腐质霉(Humicola insolens Cooney etEmerson)。研究了这株菌纤维素酶的产生条件和一般性质。菌在含麦麸5％、NaNO0.3％的液体培养基(灭菌前pH7.5,灭菌后pH7.2)中,于45℃培养4天,以羧甲基纤维素钠为底物,每ml滤液酶活力为20个单位。酶作用的最适条件为:pH6.0,温度为65—70℃。该纤维素酶是一种耐热酶,热稳定性较强,70℃保温5分钟后,酶活力剩余88％。底物对该酶的热钝化有较强的保护作用,无底物存在条件下,70℃保温6小时后,酶活力仅剩余1％,而在同样的处理温度和时间,在有底物存在条件下,酶活力可剩余30％。该酶在45℃保温15小时的条件下,pH稳定范围为6.0—9.0。     

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on adjacent semi-natural grasslands with different vegetation in Japan

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi on Japanese semi-natural grasslands were investigated at three adjacent sites with different vegetation. The predominant grasses at the three sites were 1)Pleioblastus chino, 2)Miscanthus sinensis andArundinella hirta (M. sinensis/A. hirta), and 3)Zoysia japonica, respectively. The degree of colonization was higher inM. sinensis/A. hirta than inP. chino andZ. japonica. AM fungi were recovered by spore extraction and by pot cultures started from soil inoculum or from transplanting of field plants. Total spore number obtained by the spore extraction method was highest in the rhizosphere ofM. sinensis/A. hirta and lowest in that ofP. chino. AGlomus sp. resemblingG. geosporum predominated in association withM. sinensis/A. hirta andP. chino. FromZ. japonica, three species,Acaulospora gerdemannii, Glomus leptotichum, and a species resemblingG. clarum, were isolated by pot culture from soil and two species,A. longula andScutellospora cerradensis, by pot culture from transplanting ofZ. japonica. FromM. sinensis/A. hirta, one species,A. longula, was found by pot culture from soil. FromP. chino, no AM fungus was detected by either method. Single-spore culture confirmed thatG. leptotichum andA. gerdemannii are conspecific.
