Epidemiology of blackleg disease of canola, caused by Leptosphaeria maculansNaseri, Bita January 2006 (has links)
Blackleg, caused by L. maculans, is of major economic importance in the canola growing areas of Australia. The aim of this research was to gain information about factors affecting the epidemiology of blackleg in south - eastern Australia. The effect of temperature on a number of aspects of the life cycle of L. maculans was studied in a controlled environment. Germination of ascospores was greater on agar and cotyledons than on leaves, on susceptible cultivars than resistant cultivars, and at 15 and 20 °C than at 5 and 10 °C. Elongation of germ tubes was greater at higher than lower temperatures and generally greater on cotyledons than on leaves of the cultivars after incubation for 24 h at 10 - 20 ° C. Temperature had a greater influence than plant organ or cultivar on ascospore germination and the elongation of germ tubes. Temperature, wetness duration, cultivar and leaf position ( leaves 1 - 3 ) influenced the incubation period of L. maculans on canola. Ascospores infected six canola cultivars over 10 - 20 ° C following leaf wetness duration of 16 - 72 h. Incubation period ( from inoculation to the appearance of first lesions ) was generally shorter at higher temperatures and following longer wetness periods. Incubation period decreased with increasing leaf age, regardless of the blackleg - resistance rating of the cultivars. Pseudothecia developed on naturally infested canola stubble incubated at 5 - 20 ° C under continuous wetness and a 12 h photoperiod. The time taken for pseudothecia to mature after harvest, ranged from 58.3 days at 5 ° C to 22.2 days at 15 ° C. Fewer pseudothecia developed on stubble incubated in darkness at 15 ° C than in light. Pseudothecia took longer to mature when wetness was interrupted than continuous. More ascospores were released at 20 ° C than 5 - 15 ° C, although peak sporulation occurred earlier at 5 - 10 ° C. Discharge of ascospores continued for 8 h at 5 - 10 ° C, for 10 h at 15 ° C, and for 12 h at 20 ° C. The effect of burial of infested canola stubble in sand and field soil ( in pots ) on pathogen survival, pathogenicity and stubble - associated fungi was studied over 13 months in ambient conditions. The isolation frequency of L. maculans from stubble decreased by 63.3 % after 13 months of burial, regardless of soil type. Although the frequency of isolation of L. maculans and Alternaria spp. from stubble decreased over time, that of Stachybotrys chartarum, Fusarium spp. and Coprinus sp. increased substantially over the sampling period. Stubble buried in field soil underwent more decay than in sand over the 13 months. Pseudothecium formation on buried stubble decreased with increasing duration of burial and ceased after 11 months in the field soil and 13 months in sand. The time required for pseudothecia to mature was 25 days for stubble retrieved after one month and 30 days when retrieved 10 months after burial, regardless of soil type. Ascospores from the stubble recovered from burial caused typical Phoma leaf spots on canola over the first 9 months of burial. Over the year, 16 genera of fungi and 12 colony types of bacteria were isolated from the field soil on peptone - rose bengal agar ( PRA ) and on crystal violet agar ( CVA ), respectively. Populations of fungi and bacteria isolated on soil - extract agar were markedly greater than those on PRA and on CVA, respectively. Growth and sporulation of L. maculans on agar media and on infested canola stubble was affected by a variety of fungi obtained from stubble buried in soil or from field soil. Antagonistic activities observed included lysis, deformation, overgrowth and inhibition of L. maculans hyphae, and reduction of pseudothecium density on stubble to one - third or less than that on controls following inoculation with F. equiseti, Gliocladium roseum, Trichoderma aureoviride, Sordaria sp. and an unknown Coelomycete. S. chartarum and Coprinus sp. reduced the mass of canola stubble in vitro. Findings will contribute to a better understanding of blackleg and to the development of more effective control measures. / Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Agriculture, Food and Wine, 2006.

Pre-emergence efficacy of Phomopsis convolvulus Ormeno to control field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis L.)Vogelgsang, Susanne. January 1998 (has links)
Field and controlled environment experiments were performed to assess the preemergence activity of the fungal pathogen, Phomopsis convolvulus Ormeno to control Convolvulus arvensis L. (field bindweed). A granular barley formulation of the fungal inoculum applied onto the field soil surface resulted in dramatic aboveground biomass reductions of both C. arvensis seedlings (94--100%) and regrowth from established plants (53--98%). Under field conditions, surface applications of the granular formulation resulted in greater biomass reductions (93--100%) compared with soil incorporation of the granules (31--97%). Rate of soil applied granules of P. convolvulus did not affect the level of weed control and 90--100% C. arvensis biomass reductions were obtained for all rates used (30 g, 20 g, and 10 g 0.25m--2 plot). The use of two different planting substrates in controlled environment studies led to major differences in C. arvensis disease development. With an inoculum application on the day of sowing, 81% mortality was obtained for seedlings grown in a sandy loam field sod compared with 50% of seedlings grown in a prepared peat moss medium. The susceptibility of C. arvensis biotypes from various geographic locations to P. convolvulus was similar following post-emergence, foliar inoculum applications. Significant above-ground (65--100%) and new root growth (56--72%) biomass reductions of established plants were obtained for two selected biotypes (Greece, USA-Montana) subjected to a preemergence granular inoculum application. In the presence of spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), field efficacy of P. convolvulus was enhanced and aboveground biomass of inoculated C. arvensis plants was reduced by 98% compared with inoculated C. arvensis plants grown in pure stand.

Formulation of Colletotrichum coccodes as a bioherbicideSaad, Fadia January 1993 (has links)
Colletotrichum coccodes (Wallr.) Hughes, a foliar pathogen of velvetleaf, is being developed as a bioherbicide. Formulation of living organisms for use as pest control products presents unique problems. This research has achieved the development of an adequate formulation of the pathogen by using kaolin clay or talcum powder (1:2.79 wt/wt) as the fillers to dry conidia. Formulated C. coccodes conidia stored at 4, 30C, or at room temperature in bags permeable to oxygen remained viable and able to infect velvetleaf plants at least six months in storage. Various reported germination stimulants increased germination of formulated conidia, although not significantly, whereas increasing concentrations of cutin resulted in subsequent decreases in germination and appressoria formation of fresh as well as formulated conidia. In controlled environment experiments, 14 day-old velvetleaf seedlings were severely diseased when stearic or oleic acids were added to conidia formulated in kaolin clay or talcum powder, respectively. Combinations of germination stimulants, cutinase and/or pectinase inducers did not significantly increase germination and appressoria formation of C. coccodes conidia. Germination of fresh and formulated conidia increased, although not significantly, with the addition of 1% sucrose.
