Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense for pathogenicity gene analysisMeyer, Tanja 12 June 2009 (has links)
Fusarium wilt of banana, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), is one of the most destructive plant diseases in recorded history. The disease was first discovered in Australia in 1874 but became renowned for the severe losses it caused to export banana plantations during the 1960s in Central America. The banana export industry was saved only by replacing Gros Michel bananas, the dessert banana grown for the export market, with highly resistant Cavendish banana cultivars. Despite this apparent solution, the fungus was found to attack Cavendish bananas in the sub-tropics, where plants were believed to be predisposed to the disease by the cool winter climate. Good management practices and conventional disease management strategies have not been sufficient to reduce losses and stop the disease from spreading, and today Fusarium wilt can be found in almost all banana-producing countries of the world. Since 1988, Foc has been responsible for significant losses of Cavendish bananas in tropical Asia. The only sustainable control measure, the use of resistant varieties, is not always popular as people prefer to eat locally adopted varieties that, unfortunately, are susceptible to Foc. Sustainable Fusarium wilt management in banana depends on the improvement of existing banana cultivars or the development of novel disease management strategies. Molecular biology and biotechnology provide opportunities to introduce foreign resistance genes into existing cultivars and to develop new, environmentally friendly products that can protect susceptible bananas from Foc. Better knowledge of the Fusarium wilt pathogen, its diversity, and its mechanisms of pathogenesis will contribute significantly to developing these novel approaches for control of the disease. Molecular information on the pathogenicity of Foc, however, is limited, whereas other formae speciales of F. oxysporum have been better studied. In this thesis, Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation of (ATMT) was employed to investigate genes responsible for pathogenicity of Foc to banana. Chapter 1 provides an overview of pathogenicity in F. oxysporum. Pathogenic and non-pathogenic forms of the fungus are first introduced to the reader, and then the biology, epidemiology and etiology of pathogenic forms of F. oxysporum are discussed. The genetic make-up and ability of the Fusarium wilt fungus to cause disease in plants concludes the first part of the review. In recent years, there has been a noted increase in the number of techniques available to study hostpathogen interactions. The second part of the review concentrates on these techniques and their applications in studying pathogenicity of the Fusarium wilt pathogen. In Chapter 2, an ATMT and screening system for Foc was developed. Five A. tumefaciens strains were evaluated for their efficiency to transform Foc with a randomly integrating vector that confers hygromycin B resistance and expression of green fluorescent protein (GFP). A small insertion mutant library of Foc was created, and a subset of transformants was characterized by determining the number of T-DNA inserts present, the location and identity of predicted genes disrupted by T-DNA insertion, and whether transformants of Foc were altered in their virulence against susceptible banana plants. In Chapter 3, the role of a known pathogenicity gene, Frp1, of the tomato pathogen F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (Fol) was investigated in Foc. The first objective was to isolate and characterize the Frp1 gene in Foc, and to compare it to the homologous gene in Fol. A vector containing a modified Fol Frp1 gene was then obtained and used for targeted disruption of the gene in Foc via ATMT. Mutants in which the Frp1 gene was disrupted were then analyzed for GFP expression, culture morphology, and alterations in pathogenicity to banana. / Dissertation (MSc)--University of Pretoria, 2008. / Microbiology and Plant Pathology / unrestricted

Plant Compound Pest Control in California Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) ProductionWeissman, Eli Mahanes 01 February 2017 (has links) (PDF)
Allelopathy occurs when one organism releases a compound into the environment that affects the functioning of another organism. Scientists have long suspected that alleopathic plant compounds could offer novel, softer chemistries to the ongoing battle of controlling pests in agricultural fields. Strawberry growers rely on toxic fumigants to kill soilborne fungal pests, weeds, nematodes, and insects. Increased regulations have reduced the use of fumigants (including methyl bromide), and strawberry growers need new sustainable pest control solutions. We selected four putative allelochemicals with known fungicidal and herbicidal activity (ferulic acid, gallic acid, juglone, and p-Coumaric acid). We assessed the pesticidal activity of these plant compounds both in agar and in soil on two emerging soilborne fungal pathogens (Macrophomina phaseolina and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. fragariae), and four annual weeds commonly found in strawberry production fields (Malva parviflora, Melilotus officinalis, Poa annua, and Senecio vulgaris). We also assayed lettuce (Lactuca sativa ‘Inferno’), which served as a positive control plant species due to its sensitivity to phytotoxic compounds. Fitted sigmoidal dose-response curves predicted EC50 and EC75 values for each combination of plant compound and pest.
All plant compounds inhibited the in vitro radial mycelial growth of the two soilborne fungal pathogens in a dose-dependent manner. Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. fragariae was more sensitive to the plant compounds than Macrophomina phaseolina. Average EC50 values for the radial mycelial growth of two F. oxysporum f.sp. fragariae isolates were 75.1 parts per million by weight (ppmw) juglone, 469 ppmw p-Coumaric acid, and 687 ppmw ferulic acid. Average EC50 values for the radial mycelial growth of two M. phaseolina isolates were 196 ppmw juglone, 2869 ppmw p-Coumaric acid, and 5716 ppmw ferulic acid. The three compounds we assayed in vitro also reduced M. phaseolina colony forming unit counts in soil and the EC50 values were 476 ppmw ferulic acid, 612 ppmw juglone, and 827 ppmw p-Coumaric acid. Metconazole, the conventional fungicide control, did not inhibit M. phaseolina colony forming unit counts in soil at its label high rate. The plant compounds required similar or lower rates to inhibit colony forming units that grew from M. phaseolina overwintering structures (microsclerotia) in soil as to inhibit radial mycelial growth in vitro. Based on the EC50 value in soil assays, ferulic acid was the least expensive plant compound to apply on a per acre basis to inhibit M. phaseolina ($74,226). In F.oxysporum f.sp. fragariae soil assays, the compounds induced hormesis at lower rates and may be germination stimulant candidates. Metconazole and the high rates of every compound effectively or completely inhibited F. oxysporum f.sp. fragariae colony forming units in soil.
The plant compounds were more herbicidal than fungicidal in vitro. When combining the in vitro seedling length results for L. sativa, M. parviflora, P. annua, and S. vulgaris the EC50 values differed significantly (p < .0001) and were: 47 ppmw juglone, 120 ppmw p-Coumaric acid, 189 ppmw ferulic acid, and 297 ppmw gallic acid. At least one rate of ferulic acid, juglone, and p-Coumaric acid inhibited the germination of all plant species, while gallic acid only inhibited the germination of P. annua at 1000 ppmw (p < .05). In soil, visible microbial contamination in individual wells of 24-well plates and seed dormancy made it difficult to fit curves to weed seedling length data. The soil assay L. sativa seedling length EC50 values 11 days after initial treatment were slightly higher than in vitro, although plant compounds were in the same order of phytotoxicity: 129 ppmw juglone, 616 ppmw p-Coumaric acid, 644 ppmw ferulic acid, and 1584 ppmw gallic acid. Based on the EC50 value in soil assays, the least expensive compound to inhibit L. sativa seedling length on a per acre basis was gallic acid ($21,676). Germination 26 days after initial soil treatment generally declined in a dose-dependent manner for each compound. There was a direct relationship between plant compound rate and seedling damage in soil with the higher rates of all compounds, except p-Coumaric acid, inducing damage comparable to a conventional herbicide (pendimethalin or oxyfluorfen). Contaminated treatments appeared to be due to an interaction between plant compounds and microorganisms because herbicide and water controls had almost no microbial growth 11 days after initial treatment. Further, there was a significant positive linear relationship between level of contamination in phenolic acid-treated wells (ferulic acid, gallic acid, and p-Coumaric acid, p < .0001) and the in soil rate. This relationship was slightly negative in juglone soil treatments (p = .0167), which may be due to its greater antimicrobial activity than the phenolic acids. We propose that herbicidal effects in soil were due to the joint effect of the plant compounds themselves, and the microbial growth in wells. Microbial growth was either antagonistic or additive to the inhibitory action of the plant compounds.
The plant compounds we assayed were inhibitory of emerging fungal pathogens in strawberry production and common annual strawberry field weeds. Evidence presented in this thesis correlates well with past research that not only found plant compounds to be herbicidal and fungicidal, but also described their modes-of-action (such as the production of reactive oxygen species that causes necrotic lesions on roots, and inhibition of glycolytic enzyme activity that prevents germination), and implicate plant compounds as carbon sources for a variety of microorganisms. Compound prices are currently exorbitant, but may decline as demand increases. Whether or not they provide effective pest control may depend on soil texture, organic matter, microbial diversity, and other edaphic factors.

Previous issue date: 2016-03-22 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The problems caused by nematodes and by the Panama disease on banana plantations are responsible for production losses and limiting to its cultivation. In the state of Goiás there is few information about the nematode genus that affect this crop, and its relationship with the incidence of the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc). This research aimed to survey the occurrence of plant parasitic nematodes, the incidence of Foc and soil attributes, and determine if there is a correlation among these factors. In January 2015, twelve banana producing regions in the state of Goiás were sampled: Anápolis, Caiapônia, Goiatuba, Itaguaru, Itumbiara (two areas), Jataí, Morrinhos, Ouro Verde, Palestina, Taquaral and Uruana. All sampled areas, except Morrinhos, revealed contamination with Foc, and all had different genus of nematodes. Meloidogyne sp., Helicotylenchus sp. and Rotylenchus sp. were the main genus of plant parasitic nematodes present in the banana plantations, with Meloidogyne sp. and Rotylenchus sp. the most dominant and abundant genus. We found that Pratylenchus sp. increases the population levels of F. oxysporum and that Helicotylenchus sp. has been affected by the concentration of P, Ca, Mn and the soil pH. / Os problemas fitossanitários causados por nematoides e pela doença mal-do-Panamá, na cultura da banana, são responsáveis por grandes perdas de produção ou são fatores limitantes de seu cultivo. Em Goiás, são escassas as informações sobre os gêneros de nematoides que afetam a bananicultura, bem como sua relação com a incidência do fungo Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), agente causal do mal-do-Panamá. Assim, esse trabalho teve por objetivo fazer levantamento da ocorrência de fitonematoides, da incidência de Foc e dos atributos dos solos, e determinar se há correlação entre estes fatores. Em janeiro de 2015, foram amostradas doze regiões produtoras de banana no estado de Goiás, distribuídas em onze municípios: Anápolis, Caiapônia, Goiatuba, Itaguaru, Itumbiara, Jataí, Morrinhos, Ouro Verde, Palestina, Taquaral e Uruana. Todas as áreas amostradas, exceto a do município de Morrinhos, apresentaram-se contaminadas com Foc, e todas apresentaram diversos gêneros de fitonematoides. Meloidogyne sp., Helicotylenchus sp. e Rotylenchus sp. foram os principais gêneros de fitonematoides presentes nos bananais no estado de Goiás, sendo Meloidogyne sp. e Rotylenchus sp. os gêneros mais dominantes e abundantes. Foi constatado que a presença de Pratylenchus sp. aumenta o nível populacional de F. oxysporum e que Helicotylenchus sp. é afetado pelos teores de P, Ca, Mn e pelo pH do solo.

Previous issue date: 2014-07-31 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The addition and incorporation of organic matter to the soil, besides favoring crops by improving soil physical, can increase nutrients and add specific biochemicals capable of renewing the native microflora and microfauna. These compounds may, depending on the organic material to act as a suppressant effect and biocontrol. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of swine manure compost (DSC) in an orchard of apple, pear and grape vines on the population dynamics of Verticillium dahliae, Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium verticillioides and Trichoderma sp. Soil samples for quantification of fungal colonies and nutrient analysis were collected at a depth of 0-10 cm soil of the orchard with apple, pear and grape vines. The population of pathogenic soil fungi and Trichoderma sp. were obtained by dilution and plating of 10 g of soil samples from soil orchard who received two doses of DSC (50 to 100%) compost and two (50 and 100%), using two culture media (BDA potato-dextrose-agar) and Sabouraud-ágar-chloramphenicol. The application of different doses of DSC and chemical fertilizer began in December 2012, repeated at intervals of 60 days until the 2014 harvest analysis of macronutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium) and micronutrients (iron, copper, zinc and Manganese) DSC and chemical fertilizer were run using Mehlich-1, spectrophotometry, acid-base titration and Kjeldahl method, all described by Tedesco et al. (1995). Results in the concentration of nutrients was related to the population of Verticillium dahliae, Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium verticillioides and Trichoderma sp. The experimental design was completely randomized, factorial 2 x 5, repeated in time (months). The data were analyzed using the MIXED procedure of SAS (SAS Inst. Inc., Cary, NC, v.9.2) and mean comparisons using Tukey least significant difference p ≤ 0.05. In the apple orchard, Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium solani showed higher populations in Q100 treatments (0-110 x 103 CFU / g of soil) and Q50 (0-70 x 103 CFU/g of soil) respectively. There were differences in the population periods. Phosphorus, Potassium and Sodium showed significant differences among the treatments tested. In the orchard of pear trees the largest population of Fusarium solani was the S100 treatment (0-50 x 103 CFU/ g of soil). Treatments Q50 and Q100 had higher populations of Verticillium dahliae, Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium verticillioides in different periods. Concentrations of Nitrogen and Potassium differ between treatments tested. In vineyards the largest populations of Fusarium solani and Fusarium oxysporum were found in December-2012 periods (0-70 x 103 CFU / g of soil) and August 2013 (0-60 x 103 CFU / g of soil) respectively. Concentrations of potassium, phosphorus and sodium were higher in treatment S50 and S100. The orchard of apple, pear and grape vines have different response to chemical and organic fertilization. The intensity of response to fertilization has little influence population dynamics of plant pathogens in soil and Trichoderma / A adição e incorporação de matéria orgânica ao solo, além de favorecer as culturas pela melhoria física do solo, podem potencializar nutrientes e adicionar compostos bioquímicos específicos capazes de renovar a microfauna e microflora nativas. Estes compostos podem, dependendo do material orgânico, agir como efeito supressor e como biocontrole. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da aplicação de dejeto suíno compostado (DSC) em pomar de macieiras, pereiras e videiras, sobre a dinâmica populacional de Verticillium dahliae, Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium verticillioides e Trichoderma sp. Amostras de solo para quantificação de colônias fúngicas e análise de nutrientes foram retiradas na profundidade 0-10 cm de solo do pomar de macieiras, pereiras e videiras. A população de fungos fitopatogênicos de solo e Trichoderma sp. foram obtidas pela diluição e plaqueamento de 10 g de amostras de solo provenientes do solo do pomar que receberam duas doses de DSC (50 e 100%) e duas de adubo químico (50 e 100%), utilizando dois meios de cultura, BDA (batata-dextrose-agar) e Sabouraud ágar-cloranfenicol. A aplicação das diferentes doses de DSC e adubo químico tiveram início em dezembro-2012, repetidas em intervalos de 60 dias até a safra 2014. A análise dos macronutrientes (nitrogênio, fósforo, potássio, cálcio e magnésio) e micronutrientes (ferro,cobre,zinco e Manganês) do DSC e da adubação química foram realizados pelos métodos de Mehlich -1, espectrofotometria, titulação ácido-base e método Kjeldahl, todas descritas por Tedesco et al. (1995). Resultados da concentração de nutrientes foi relacionado à população de Verticillium dahliae, Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium verticillioides e Trichoderma sp. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente casualisado, em arranjo fatorial 2 x 5, repetidos no tempo (meses). Os dados foram analisados pelo procedimento MIXED do SAS (SAS Inst. Inc., Cary, NC, v.9.2) e as comparações de médias usando a diferença mínima significativa de Tukey p ≤ 0,05. No pomar de macieiras, Fusarium oxysporum e Fusarium solani apresentaram maiores populações nos tratamentos Q100 (0-110 x 103 UFC/g de solo) e Q50 (0-70 x 103 UFC/g de solo) respectivamente. Houve diferenças da população nos períodos avaliados. Fósforo, Potássio e Sódio apresentaram diferenças significativas entre os tratamentos testados. No pomar de pereiras a maior população de Fusarium solani foi ao tratamento S100 (0-50 x 103 UFC/g de solo). Os tratamentos Q50 e Q100 apresentaram maiores populações de Verticillium dahliae, Fusarium oxysporum e Fusarium verticillioides em diferentes períodos de avaliação. Concentrações de Potássio e Nitrogênio apresentaram diferenças nos tratamentos testados. Na cultura da videira as maiores populações de Fusarium solani e Fusarium oxysporum foram encontradas nos períodos dezembro-2012 (0-70 x 103 UFC/g de solo) e agosto-2013 (0-60 x 103 UFC/g de solo) respectivamente. Concentrações de Potássio, Fósforo e Sódio foram superiores nos tratamento S50 e S100. O pomar de macieiras, pereiras e videiras apresentam diferentes resposta a adubação química e orgânica.

Previous issue date: 2017-04-27 / Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Goiás - FAPEG / The common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) crop plays an important role in the culture and economy of Brazil. It is cultivated in all Brazilian regions and is affected by several diseases like fusarium wilt which is caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli (soil-born fungus). This disease brings significant losses in common bean culture and genetic resistance is the primary form of control. One of the core goals of breeding programs is the development of resistant cultivars, therefore the objectives of this work are: i) To select F. oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli resistant F5:7 lines resulted from the crossing between Ouro Branco X CNFP10132, under controlled field and environment conditions ii) To identify SSR markers and QTL-linked SNPs associated with the resistance of common bean to fusarium wilt using 92 recombinat inbred lines(RILs) resulted from the crossing between Ouro Branco x CNFP10132. In the first study, 140 lines, the breeders Ouro Branco and CNFP10132, BRS Esplendor (resistant) and BRS Supremo (susceptible) as controls were evaluated. Field trials were conducted in a center pivot area where natural infestation of the pathogen occurs. The treatments were evaluated in summer and winter crop and the experimental design used was 12x12 triple lattice. The two controlled environment trials were conducted in a completely randomized design. The treatments were inoculated by cutting and immersing the roots in a conidial suspension, which was adjusted to 1x106 conidia/ml for five minutes. The evaluation was performed using a scale of nine grades that represent the severity of the disease: 1 – absence of symptoms and 9 – over 75% of foliage with wilt symptoms. Data were submitted to analysis of variance and Scott-Knott test for both environments. The area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC) and genetic parameters were estimated for controlled environment tests. Significant differences were observed for crops and for controlled environment trials, indicating that environment influences directly the severity of the disease. Highly significant differences were found for lines in all environments evaluated, demonstrating the existence of genetic variability, which allows the selection of resistant lines resistant to fusarium wilt. Treatments were classified in different groups according to the Scott-knott test. When considering the lowest averages in field, controlled environment and AUDPC, the strains Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.140, Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.49, Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.12, Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.90 and Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.48 were prominent and are candidates to produce a breeding program. Heritability estimates were high for all environments, mean of 85.48% for field and 95.47% for controlled environment. Therefore, selection for resistance to F. oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli of these lines, will be successful. In the second study it was extracted DNA from 92 lines and from genitors for genotyping with SSRs and SNPs. In order to obtain the localization of these markers, sequences of the primers were aligned to the andean genome of the common bean. The method of single marker (analysis of QTLs based on linear regression) was used to identify QTLs associated with fusarium wilt resistance. These markers were considered significant when brought up p-value <0.05. Ninety-three markers were linked to 104 QTLs associated with fusarium wilt resistance and among these, were considered significant in more than one environment PV 115, PV 251, BARC-PV-0004089, BARC-PV-0004548, BARC-PV-0003450, BARC-PV-0006051, BARC-PV-0003368 , BARC-PV-0005477 and BARC-PV-0004897. However only the BARC-PV-0003450 marker was highly significant in the two environment controled trials (p <0.001) and winter crop (p <0.01) and explained up to 21.5% of the phenotypic variance. Subsequently, the gene annotation was made considering the location of all markers that were significant at p <0.01 comprising 500 kb before and after the localization. 960 coded transcripts were annotated. It was observed in gene annotation that BARC-PV-0003450 marker is located on the chromosome 8, 338.54 kb distant of the gene Phvul.008G014700 which is associated with the putative protein RPP13 related to disease resistance, identified in Arabidopsis thaliana. This protein belongs to the third class of resistance genes that encloses the domain called Leucine-Rich Repeats (LRR). This domain is involved in the recognition of the pathogen by the host during the infection process. Therefore, this marker is suitable for marker- assisted selection aiming the development of cultivars resistant to fusarium wilt. / A cultura do feijoeiro-comum (Phaseolus vulgaris) tem importância cultural e econômica no Brasil. O feijoeiro-comum é cultivado em todas as regiões brasileiras e é acometido por várias doenças, como a murcha-de-fusarium, causada pelo fungo habitante de solo Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli. Esta doença causa significativas perdas na cultura e a principal forma de controle é a resistência genética. Desenvolver cultivares resistentes é um dos alvos dos programas de melhoramento, portanto os objetivos deste trabalho foram: i) selecionar linhagens resistentes obtidas de população F5:7 oriunda do cruzamento entre Ouro Branco e CNFP10132 para F. oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli, em condições de campo e de ambiente controlado e ii) identificar marcadores SSR e SNP's ligados a QTLs associados à resistência do feijoeiro-comum à murcha-de-fusarium utilizando 92 linhagens recombinantes endogâmicas (RILs) derivadas do cruzamento Ouro Branco x CNFP10132. No primeiro estudo 140 linhagens, os genitores Ouro Branco e CNFP10132, duas testemunhas BRS Esplendor (resistente) e BRS Supremo (suscetível) foram avaliados. Os ensaios de campo foram conduzidos em área de pivô central onde ocorre infestação natural do patógeno. Os tratamentos foram avaliados em duas safras (safra das águas e de inverno) em delineamento de látice triplo 12x12. Os dois ensaios em ambiente controlado foram conduzidos em delineamento inteiramente causalizado. As plantas foram inoculadas utilizando o método de corte de raiz e imersão destas na suspensão de conídios, que foi ajustada para 1x106 conídeos/mL durante cinco minutos. A avaliação foi feita utilizando uma escala de notas de nove graus que representam a severidade da doença: sendo 1 - ausência de sintomas e 9 - acima 75% da folhagem com sintomas de murcha. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de variância e teste de Scott-Knott para os ambos ambientes. Para os ensaios em ambiente controlado foram estimados área abaixo da curva do progresso da doença (AACPD) e parâmetros genéticos. Foram observadas diferenças significativas para safras e para ensaios de ambiente controlado, indicativo de que o ambiente influencia diretamente na severidade da doença. Foram encontradas diferenças altamente significativas para linhagens em todos os ambientes avaliados, evidenciando a existência de variabilidade genética, o que possibilita seleção de linhagens resistentes à murcha-de-fusarium. Ao considerar as menores médias em campo, ambiente controlado e ACCPD as linhagens Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.140, Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.49, Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.12, Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.90 e Ouro Branco x CNFP 10132.48 se destacaram e são candidatas para compor o programa de melhoramento. As estimativas de herdabilidade foram altas para todos os ambientes, média de 85,48% para campo e 95,47% para ambiente controlado. Portanto, a seleção para resistência à F. oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli dentre estas linhagens, será bem sucedida. No segundo estudo foi extraído o DNA de 92 linhagens e dos genitores para genotipagem com marcadores SSRs e SNPs. Para obtenção da localização destes marcadores as sequências dos primers foram alinhadas no genoma andino do feijoeiro-comum. O método de mapeamento por marcas simples (análise de QTLs por meio da regressão linear) foi utilizado para identificar QTLs associados à resistência à murcha-de-fusarium. Foram considerados marcadores significativos os que apresentaram p-valor<0,05. Noventa e três marcadores foram identificados ligados a 104 QTLs associados à resistência à murcha-de-fusarium. Dentre estes marcadores destaca-se os que foram significativos em mais de um ambiente PV 115, PV 251, BARC-PV-0004089, BARC-PV-0004548, BARC-PV-0003450, BARC-PV-0006051, BARC-PV-0003368, BARC-PV-0005477 e BARC-PV-0004897. Dentre os marcadores, somente o marcador BARC-PV-0003450 foi altamente significativo nos dois ensaios, em ambiente controlado (p<0,001) e na safra de inverno (p<0,01), e explicou até 21,5% da variância fenotípica. Foi feita a anotação gênica considerando a localização de todos os marcadores que foram significativos à p<0,01 e abrangeu 500 kb anterior e posterior à localização. Foram anotados 960 transcritos codificados. Ainda observou-se que o marcador BARC-PV-0003450 está localizado no cromossomo 8 distante 338,54 kb do gene Phvul.008G014700 o qual está associado à proteína putativa RPP13 relacionada com resistência à doenças, identificada em Arabidopsis thaliana. Esta proteína pertence à terceira classe de genes de resistência que engloba o domínio denominado de Repetições Ricas em Leucina (LRR; Leucine Rich Repeats). Este domínio está envolvido no reconhecimento do patógeno pelo hospedeiro durante o processo de infecção. Portanto há a possibilidade de selecionar linhagens resistentes à murcha-de-fusarium e identificar QTLs que possivelmente estão ligados aos marcadores utilizados

Émergence de la fusariose sur Vanillaxtahitensis à Raiatea : inventaire et déterminisme épidémiologique / Vanilla root rot emergence on Vanillaxtahitensis in Raiatea (French Polynesia) : geographical distribution and epidemiological evolutionAtuahiva, Timeri 19 February 2015 (has links)
La vanille, utilisée en alimentation et parfumerie, est une orchidée originaire d’Amérique centrale et maintenant cultivée dans l’océan indien (Vanilla planifolia, 97% de la production mondiale) et dans l’océan pacifique (Vanilla tahitensis, 3% de la production mondiale, essentiellement en Polynésie française).J’ai montré que Vanilla tahitensis était aussi sensible que Vanilla planifolia à la fusariose et représentait la maladie principale de la vanille en Polynésie française comme dans le reste des zones de production des vanilles aromatiques. J’ai participé à démontrer qu’il s’agissait d’une nouvelle espèce de Fusarium oxysporum « f. sp. radicis-vanillae » car elle ne s’attaque qu’au cortex racinaire et ne pénètre que peu dans les tissus vasculaires. J’ai suivi pendant 4 ans l’évolution qualitative et quantitative des dégâts dus à 6 pathogènes et ravageurs dans 51 plantations à Raiatea, principalement des ombrières. J’ai ainsi montré que, contrairement aux autres pathologies et ravageurs, la fusariose connaissait un développement presqu’exponentiel ces 3 dernières années, comme c’est également le cas sur Vanilla planifolia dans le reste du monde. Ayant, par ailleurs, conduit un travail d’enquête auprès des producteurs, j’ai indiqué (l’analyse statistique et la modélisation afférente ne sont pas terminées) que le soin apporté aux lianes par les producteurs était essentiel au bon contrôle de la fusariose. / Vanilla species, used for aroma and flagrances, are orchidaceae originated from central America. They are now mostly cultivated in the Indian ocean (Vanilla planifolia, 97%, mainly in Madagascar, Indonesia, India and smaller islands from the Indian ocean) and in the Pacific ocean (Vanilla tahitensis, 3%, mainly French Polynesia).I have shown that Vanilla tahitensis was as susceptible as Vanilla planifolia towards fusarium root rot. It does represent the major losses on Vanilla tahitensis in Raiatea like reported for all the other areas of vanilla production worldly. I have participated to show that this fungus was delimited to root cortex maceration and did not invade vascular tissues, reason for which we use a new name for this pathogen : Fusarium oxysporum f sp radicis-vanillae.I have followed the etiological and epidemiological characteristics of this disease and of 5 other pathogens and insects on 51 Vanilla plantations, mainly shade-houses, during 4 years, for each vine in cohort analysis manner. I have shown, among this 6 biological causes of loss, fusarium root rot was the only one to present an exponential trajectory within the last 3 years, while the other causes remain stable or display a year increase because of climatic reasons. I did interview all the producers owning these plantations and analyze statistically the answers to the very numerous questions. The statistical and modelling analysis is not yet finished. Nevertheless, I can already claim that regular vine cleaning is absolutely necessary to maintain the vanilla plantations healthy, something which, unfortunately is not a rule for everyone.

Résistance induite chez arabidopsis thaliana : la résistance à Fusariumoxysporum et la potentialisation des réponses de défense par le Phosphite / Induced resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana : resistance to Fusarium oxysporum and priming of defence responses by phosphiteMassoud, Kamal 17 June 2011 (has links)
: Les plantes ont développé au cours de leur évolution un système d’immunité innée constitué de barrières préformées et de réponses de défense induites contre les agents pathogènes. Ce travail s’inscrit dans l’étude des résistances induites chez Arabidopsis thaliana soit naturellement contre les agents pathogènes racinaires Fusarium oxysporum spp. (Fo), ou après application de phosphite (Phi), contre le parasite foliaire Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis (Hpa). Dans la première partie du travail, les rôles des métabolites secondaires (MS) et des formes réactives de l’oxygène (ROS) dans les résistances racinaires basale et non-hôte, respectivement aux formes spéciales conglutinans (Foco) et melonis (Fom) de Fo, ont été analysés. Nous avons démontré la participation de la camalexine, une phytoalexine indolique, dans la résistance basale d’Arabidopsis à Foco. En revanche, la scopolétine, une phytoalexine phénolique, et les ROS jouent des rôles essentiels dans la résistance non-hôte à Fom. Ces données soulignent le rôle clé des MS et des ROS dans les résistances hôte et non-hôte d’Arabidopsis. Dans une deuxième partie de ce travail, le mode d’action du Phi, un oxyanion de l’acide phosphoreux (H3PO3) protégeant Arabidopsis contre l’isolat Noco2 de Hpa, a été étudié. L’effet de faibles doses de Phi est aboli chez des mutants d’Arabidopsis affectés dans la voie de transduction du signal acide salicylique (SA) indiquant que l’induction de résistance à Hpa est médiée par des mécanismes dépendants du SA. Le Phi potentialise les réponses de défense contre Hpa Noco2 via EDS1-PAD4, deux composants essentiels de la résistance basale, NPR1 et la protéine de défense PR1. L’expression de la MAP kinase MPK4, un régulateur négatif de la résistance à Hpa, est diminuée par le Phi, lors de l’inoculation par Hpa Noco2. Nos résultats démontrent que la potentialisation des réponses de défense par le Phi est associée à la régulation négative de MPK4. / Plants have developed during their evolution an innate immunity system consisting of preformed barriers and induced defence responses against pathogens. This work studies resistances in Arabidopsis thaliana induced either naturally against the root pathogen Fusarium oxysporum spp. (Fo), or after application of phosphite (Phi) against the leaf pathogen Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis (Hpa). In a first part, roles of secondary metabolites (SM) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in basal and non-host resistances of roots to the special forms conglutinans (Foco) and melonis (Fom) of Fo, respectively, were analyzed. We demonstrated the involvement of the indolic phytoalexin camalexin, in basal resistance of Arabidopsis to Foco. In contrast, the phenolic phytoalexin, scopoletin, and ROS play essential roles in non-host resistance to Fom. These data underscore the key role of MS and ROS in basal and non-host resistances of Arabidopsis. In a second part, the mode of action of Phi, an oxyanion of phosphorous acid (H3PO3) protecting Arabidopsis against the Hpa isolate Noco2 was studied. Effect of low doses of Phi is abolished in Arabidopsis mutants affected in salicylic acid (SA) signalling, indicating that induced resistance to Hpa is mediated by SA-dependent mechanisms. Phi primes defence responses against Hpa Noco2 via EDS1-PAD4, two essential components of basal resistance, as well as NPR1 and PR1. Expression of the MAP kinase MPK4, a negative regulator of resistance to Hpa, is decreased by Phi after inoculation with Hpa Noco2. Our results demonstrate that priming of defence responses by Phi is associated with down-regulation of MPK4.

Evolution and detection of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cepae in onion in South AfricaSouthwood, Michael J. 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (PhDAgric (Plant Pathology))--Stellenbosch University, 2010. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In the Western Cape onion industry in South Africa, Fusarium oxysporum
Schlechtend.:Fr. f.sp. cepae (H.N. Hans.) W.C. Snyder & H.N. Hans. (Focep) has
been identified as the leading cause of harvest and storage losses. This pathogen is of
world-wide importance and causes Fusarium basal rot of onions (Allium cepa),
affecting all onion growth stages. No information is available on the evolution,
genetic diversity, molecular detection and inoculum sources of the South African
Focep population.
Similar to what is the case for South Africa, limited information is available
on Focep in other regions of the world. World-wide, four vegetative compatibility
groups (VCGs) and two single-member VCGs (SMVs) have been identified among
two Japanese and 19 Colorado (USA) isolates. This polyphyletic origin of Focep
suggested by VCG analyses was confirmed through molecular analyses of isolates
from a few countries. Only the mating type (MAT)1-1 idiomorph has been reported
for Focep isolates from Welsh onion (Allium fistulosum).
The development of sustainable management strategies of Focep is dependent
on knowledge of (i) the genetic diversity and evolution of Focep, (ii) whether high
throughput molecular methods can be developed for identifying the most virulent and
widespread Focep genotypes and (iii) the role of seedlings and seeds as primary
inoculum sources, and the Focep genotypes associated with these growth stages.
Therefore, the three main aims of the current study were to investigate the
aforementioned three aspects.
In the first aim of the study, the genetic diversity and evolution of Focep was
investigated using a collection of 79 F. oxysporum isolates from South Africa (27
Focep and 33 non-pathogenic isolates) and Colorado (19 Focep isolates). VCG
analyses revealed the presence of six VCGs, four among the Colorado Focep isolates
(VCGs 0421, 0422, 0423 and 0424) and two among the South African bulb-associated
isolates (VCGs 0425 and 0426). VCG 0421 and VCG 0425 were the two main VCGs
in Colorado and South Africa, respectively. Four SMVs and one heterokaryon selfincompatible
(HSI) isolate were also identified. The polyphyletic nature of Focep in South Africa and Colorado was shown through a combined translation elongation
factor 1α (EF-1α) and mitochondrial small-subunit (mtSSU) phylogeny. The
phylogeny divided the Focep isolates into two main clades, of which one contained
the two main VCGs (0421 and 0425), SMVs and non-pathogenic isolates. The
second, ancestral clade contained the HSI isolate, VCGs 0422, 0423 and 0424, and
non-pathogenic isolates. Unlike the clade containing the two main VCGs, which were
highly virulent toward onion bulbs, the ancestral clade contained isolates that were
mostly moderately virulent. The incongruence of the EF-1α and mtSSU datasets with
an intergenic spacer (IGS) region data set, and the presence of both MAT idiomorphs
within the same isolate for some isolates, suggested possible exchange of genetic
material between isolates.
The second aim of the study was to develop molecular methods for identifying
the two main Focep VCGs (0425 and 0421), using DNA fingerprinting methods and
sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers. These techniques were
first developed using the F. oxysporum isolates from the first aim, and were then used
to investigate the prevalence of VCG 0425 among 88 uncharacterized F. oxysporum
isolates from onion bulbs in South Africa. Two random amplified polymorphic DNA
primers provided two diagnostic amplicons for VCG 0425, but attempts to develop
SCAR markers from these amplicons were unsuccessful. In contrast, an interretrotransposon
amplified polymorphism (IRAP) fingerprinting method enabled the
developed of a multiplex IR-SCAR polymerase chain reaction method that detected
the VCG 0421, 0425 and SMV 4 isolates as a group. Fingerprinting and SCAR
marker testing of the 88 uncharacterized F. oxysporum isolates from South Africa (65
Focep and 23 non-pathogenic) confirmed that VCG 0425 is the main VCG in South
Africa associated with mature onion bulbs, since 63 of the Focep isolates had the
molecular characteristics of VCG 0425.
The third aim of the study was to determine whether seed and seedling
transplants are inoculum sources of Focep, and whether the same genotype (VCG
0425) that dominated on mature bulbs could be detected from these sources. Focep
isolates were obtained from seven of the 13 investigated onion seed lots, as well as
from onion seedling transplants that were collected from all five onion nurseries in the
Western Cape. Focep seedling infection more than doubled from the 6-week growth stage to the 14-week growth stage. Seed infections by Focep were low, but the
seedborne nature of Focep was confirmed by showing that a green fluorescent protein
labelled Focep transformant could be transmitted from infected soil to onion seed via
the onion bulbs and seedstalks. It is thus clear that commercial seed and seedlings are
inoculum sources of Focep. However, the Focep genotypes on seed and seedlings are
different from those in mature bulbs and were not dominated by VCG 0425.
Furthermore, most (≤ 60%) of the seed and seedling isolates were moderately
virulent, as compared to the mostly highly virulent isolates from mature bulbs. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: In die Wes-Kaapse uiebedryf in Suid-Afrika is Fusarium oxysporum
Schlechtend.:Fr. f.sp. cepae (H.N. Hans.) W.C. Snyder & H.N. Hans. (Focep)
geïdentifiseer as die vernaamste oorsaak van oes- en opbergingsverliese. Hierdie
patogeen is van wêreldwye belang; dit veroorsaak Fusarium-bolvrot van uie (Allium
cepa) en affekteer alle plantgroeistadia. In Suid-Afrika is daar geen inligting
beskikbaar oor die evolusie, genetiese diversiteit, molekulêre opsporing en
inokulumbronne van die Focep-populasie nie.
Soortgelyk aan wat die geval in Suid-Afrika is, is daar beperkte inligting
beskikbaar oor Focep in ander wêrelddele. Wêreldwyd is daar vier vegetatiewe
versoenbaarheidsgroepe (VVGe) en twee enkellid VVGe (ELVe) geïdentifiseer onder
twee Japannese en 19 Colorado (VSA) isolate. Hierdie veelvuldige oorsprong van
Focep wat deur VVG-analise voorgestel was, is deur die molekulêre analises van
isolate uit ’n paar ander lande bevestig. Slegs die paringstipe (PT)1-1 idiomorf is vir
Focep-isolate uit Walliese-tipe uie (ook bekend as ‘lenteuie’ in Suid Africa) (Allium
fistulosum) berig.
Die ontwikkeling van volhoubare bestuurstrategieë vir Focep steun op kennis
van (i) die genetiese diversiteit en evolusie van Focep, (ii) of hoë-deurset molekulêre
metodes ontwikkel kan word vir die identifisering van die mees virulente en
wydverspreide Focep-genotipes en (iii) die rol van saailinge en saad as primêre
inokulumbronne, en die Focep-genotipes wat met hierdie groeistadia geassosieer
word. Daarom was die hoof doelstellings van hierdie studie om die bogenoemde drie
aspekte te bestudeer.
Om die eerste doel van die studie te bereik is die genetiese diversiteit en
evolusie van Focep bestudeer deur gebruik te maak van ‘n versameling van 79 F.
oxysporum-isolate uit Suid-Afrika (27 Focep en 33 nie-patogeniese isolate) en uit
Colorado (19 Focep-isolate). VVG-analises het die teenwoordigheid van ses VVGe
aangetoon – vier onder die Colorado Focep-isolate (VVGe 0421, 0422, 0423 en 0424)
en twee onder die Suid-Afrikaanse bol-geassosieerde isolate (VVGe 0425 en 0426).
VVG 0421 en VVG 0425 was die twee hoof VVGe in onderskeidelik Colorado en Suid-Afrika. Vier ELVe en een meerkernige self-onversoenbare (MSO) isolaat is ook
geïdentifiseer. Die veelvuldige oorsprong van Focep in Suid-Afrika en Colorado is
ook aangetoon deur ‘n gekombineerde translasie verlengings faktor 1α (VF-1α) en
mitokondriale klein-subeenheid (mtKSE) filogenie. Dié filogenie het die Focepisolate
in twee groepe verdeel, waarvan die een groep die twee hoof VVGe (0421 en
0425), ELVe en nie-patogeniese isolate bevat het. Die tweede, basal groepering het
die MSO-isolaat, VVGe 0422, 0423 en 0424, en nie-patogeniese isolate bevat. In
teenstelling met die eersgenoemde groepering wat hoogs virulente isolate van uiebolle
bevat het, het die basale groepering isolate bevat wat meestal matig virulent was. Die
inkongruensie van die VF-1α en mtKSE-datastelle met ‘n intergeen-gespasieerde
(IGS) area datastel – asook die teenwoordigheid van beide PT-idiomorwe binne
dieselfde isolaat by sommige isolate – het op ’n moontlike uitruiling van genetiese
materiaal tussen isolate gedui.
Die tweede doel van die studie was om molekulêre metodes te ontwikkel vir
die identifisering van die twee hoof Focep VVGe (0425 en 0421) deur gebruik te
maak van DNA-vingerafdrukke en nukleotied-gekarakteriseerde geamplifiseerde area
(NKAA) merkers. Hierdie tegnieke is ontwikkel deur van die F. oxysporum-isolate
van die eerste doelstelling gebruik te maak en is daarna gebruik om die frekwensie
van VVG 0425 onder 88 ongekarakteriseerde F. oxysporum-isolate van uiebolle in
Suid-Afrika te ondersoek. Twee gerandomiseerde geamplifiseerde polimorfiese DNS
(RAPD) merkers het twee diagnostiese nukleotiedbasis-areas vir VVG 0425 gelewer,
maar pogings om NKAA-merkers uit hierdie geamplifiseerde nukleotiedbasis-areas te
onwikkel was onsuksesvol. In teenstelling hiermee het ‘n inter-retrotransposon
geamplifiseerde polimorfisme (IRAP) vingerafdrukmetode die ontwikkeling van ‘n
multipleks IR-NKAA polimerase kettingreaksiemetode moontlik gemaak wat die
VVG 0421-, VVG 0425- en ELV 4-isolate as ’n groep aangedui het.
Vingerafdruktoetsing en NKAA-merkertoetsing van die 88 ongekaraktariseerde F.
oxysporum isolate van Suid-Afrika (65 Focep en 23 nie-patogenies) het bevestig dat
VVG 0425 die hoof VVG in Suid-Afrika is wat met volwasse bolle geassosieer word,
aangesien 63 van die Focep-isolate die molekulêre eienskappe van VVG 0425 gehad
het. Die derde doel van die studie was om vas te stel of saad en saailinge
inokulumbronne van Focep is, en of dieselfde genotipe (VVG 0425) wat op volwasse
bolle dominant is, waargeneem kon word op hierdie bronne. Focep-isolate is verkry
van sewe van die 13 uiesaadlotte asook van uiesaailinge wat in al vyf
uiesaailingkwekerye in die Wes-Kaap versamel is. Focep-saailinginfeksie was meer
as dubbel in die 14-week groeistadium as wat dit in die 6-week stadium was.
Saadinfeksies deur Focep was laag, maar die saadgedraagde aard van Focep is
bevestig deur aan te toon dat ’n Focep-transformant wat met ‘n groen fluoreserende
proteïen geëtiketeer is, van geïnfekteerde grond na uiesaad oorgedra kon word via die
uiebolle en -saadstele. Dit is dus duidelik dat kommersiële saad en saailinge as
inokulumbronne van Focep dien. Die Focep-genotipes op saad en saailinge verskil
egter van dié in volwasse bolle en is nie deur VVG 0425 gedomineer nie. Verder was
die meeste (≤ 60%) saad- en saailingisolate matig virulent, in teenstelling met die
meestal hoogs virulente isolate uit volwasse bolle.

Characterization and pathogenicity of South African isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonisSchreuder, Wouter 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (PhD(Agric))--University of Stellenbosch, 2000. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to characterize the race and vegetative
compatibility of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis (FOM) isolates collected in the
major melon producing areas, to report on their geographical distribution, and their
possible relatedness to isolates from other countries.
Seventy two FOM isolates obtained from 30 fields in 17 melon producing regions
were race-typed using the differential cultivars Topmark (susceptible to all races),
Doublon (Fomi), CM 17187 (Fom2) and Perlita (Fom3) and grouped by means of
vegetative compatibility. All isolates belonged to vegetative compatibility group 0134,
indicating a high degree of genetic homogeneity among the South African FOM
population. Fifty four isolates were identified as race 0, eight as race 1, and 10 as race 2.
Race 0 occurred in 15 of the regions whereas race 1 was sporadically recovered. Race 2,
on the other hand, was obtained only from four fields located in one geographical region.
Perlita plants (carrying the gene Fom3) inoculated with local isolates ofrace 0 and race 2
and reference isolates of race 0 became stunted, their leaves turned yellow, and became
thickened and brittle. These results suggested that Fom3 in Perlita confers a tolerant
reaction compared to the resistant reaction of gene FornI in Doublon. The disease
reaction of cultivar Perlita to FOM was therefore reinvestigated. Twenty isolates,
including the four FOM races (0, 1, 2, and 1,2) obtained from different countries, were
used. The differential cultivars were included to verify virulence of the isolates. Perlita
plants inoculated with three isolates of race 2 remained asymptomatic. The remaining
race 2 and 0 isolates, induced severe stunting of Perlita plants, but mean percentage
stunting values did not differ significantly (P = 0.05) and ranged between 25.1 and 50.0.
Leaves of stunted plants were chlorotic, thickened and brittle. Disease reaction of Perlita
was verified at a lower inoculum concentration with two race 2 (pipette method) and two race 0 isolates (root dip method). Results proved that Fom3 does not confer similar
resistance towards race 0 and some race 2 isolates as FornI in Doublon. Cultivars
possessing Fom3, should therefore be considered tolerant to FOM races 0 and 2.
The ability of a nit mutant isolate, generated from FOM race 0 which belongs to
VCG 0134, to change its virulence during infection of melon plants, was investigated
under quarantine. Seedlings of melon cultivars Imperial 45 and Early Sweet (no
resistance genes), Amber (Fom2) and Fiata (FomI, Fom2) were consecutively grown in
two cement troughs in a gauzehouse. Each planting was terminated when plants had
advanced Fusarium wilt or after the fruit were harvested. In the first planting, Imperial
45 seedlings were transplanted and artificially inoculated with the nil mutant isolate. In
the consecutive plantings, seeds were sown in the infested soil to enable natural infection.
For each crop, representative plants showing Fusarium wilt were selected for isolation.
All F. oxysporum isolates recovered were single-spored and their nit mutant and VCG
status verified. Virulence of the labelled isolates was determined using differential
cultivars. In trough A, all plants of the susceptible cultivars Imperial 45 and Early Sweet
crops showed Fusarium wilt. The labelled isolates recovered from the selected plants
were all designated race O. In the first crop (planting No.5) of the resistant cultivar
Amber, 6.7% of the plants developed Fusarium wilt. In the second Amber crop the
disease incidence increased to 56.6%, and to 81.8% in the final crop. Contrary to the
susceptible cultivars, only race 2 isolates were obtained from the symptomatic Amber
plants. Similar data were found with the susceptible cultivar Imperial 45 and the resistant
cultivar Amber in trough B. Planting of Fiata caused a dramatic reduction in Fusarium
wilt incidence in trough B. However, 1.2% of plants were affected by Fusarium wilt in
the first Fiata crop (planting No.6), whereas 4% of the plants were symptomatic in the
final planting. From these symptomatic Fiata plants only race 1,2 isolates were obtained.
These findings, and the fact that the symptomatic plants represented a substantial
proportion of the first Amber (approximately 7-15%) and Fiata (approximately 2%)
crops, provedthat changes in the race structure of this fungal pathogen occurred rapidly
when confronted with a resistant cultivar. The potential of RAPD analysis to differentiate between the isolates displaying
virulence changes was evaluated. Four F. oxysporum f. sp. niveum isolates were included
as an outgroup. A histopathological study was conducted to verify whether these isolates
retain their ability to behave as true vascular pathogens. The three primers used clearly
distinguished the 12 FOM isolates from the four F. oxysporum f. sp. niveum isolates.
However, the primers showed a highly conserved and characteristic banding pattern for
the FOM isolates which represented three physiological races (race 0, race 2, race 1,2),
indicating that RAPD analysis cannot detect race-specific groupings in FOM. Disease
reactions on the three differential cultivars confirmed the virulence of FOM isolates. The
histopathological data furthermore proved that the two FOM races (race 2, race 1,2),
which derived from the race 0 parent isolate, retained their ability to behave as true
vascular pathogens. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: DIE KARAKTERISERING EN PATOGENESITEIT VAN SUID-AFRIKAANSE
ISOLATE VAN FUSARIUMOXYSPORUMF. SP.MELONIS
Die doel van die studie was om Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis (FOM) isolate
wat in die hoof spanspekproduserende gebiede versamel is, volgens ras en vegetatiewe
verenigbaarheid te karakteriseer, en hul geografiese verspreiding en verwantskap met
isolate van ander lande aan te dui.
Twee en sewentig FOM isolate afkomstig vanaf 30 landerye wat 17
spanspekproduserende areas verteenwoordig, is gebruik. Die differensiële kultivars
Topmark (vatbaar vir alle rasse), Doublon (Forni), CM 17187 (Fom2) en Perlita (Fond)
is gebruik om die rasbepalings te doen asook om die vegetatiewe verenigbare groepe
(VVG) te bepaal. Al die isolate is as VVG 0134 geklassifiseer, wat 'n hoë mate van
genetiese homogenesiteit binne die Suid-Afrikaanse populasie aandui. Vier en vyftig
isolate is as ras 0, agt as ras 1 en 10 as ras 2 geklassifiseer. Ras 0 is vanaf 15 gebiede
afkomstig, terwyl ras 1 sporadies voorgekom het. Ras 2 is vanuit vier landerye binne
dieselfde geografiese gebied verkry. Plante van die kultivar Perlita wat met plaaslike
isolate van ras 0 en 2, asook verwysings-isolate van ras 0 geïnokuleer is, het verdwerg
voorgekom. Die blare van die plante het vergeel, verdik en bros voorgekom. Hierdie
siekte reaksie het aangedui dat Fond in Perlita toleransie bewerkstellig in teenstelling
met die weerstandbiedende reaksie van geen Fomi in Doublon. Die siekte reaksie van
Perlita teenoor FOM is dus verder ondesoek. Hiervoor is 20 isolate wat al vier FOM
rasse insluit (0, 1, 2, en 1,2), en van verskillende wêrelddele afkomstig is, gebruik. Die
virulensie van die isolate is met die differensiële kultivars bevestig. Drie van die ras 2
isolate het geen siektesimptome op Perlita veroorsaak nie. Die ander ras 2 isolate, en al
die ras 0 isolate, het egter die Perlita plante aansienlik verdwerg en die blare vergeel en
verdik. Laasgenoemde groep isolate het 'n gemiddelde verdwergingsindeks van tussen
25.1% en 50.0% veroorsaak. Die siekte reaksie by Perlita is verder bevestig deur plante teen 'n laer inokulumdigtheid van twee ras 2 (pipet metode), en twee ras 0 (wortel-doop
metode) isolate, te inokuleer. Uit die resultate was dit duidelik dat die weerstand wat
Fom3 teenoor ras 0 en sommige ras 2 isolate verskaf, van FornI verskil. Kultivars wat
oor die weerstandsgeen Fom3 beskik moet dus as tolerant beskou word.
'n Ondersoek is geloods na die vermoë van 'n nil mutant isolaat, genereer vanaf
die wilde ras 0 isolaat van FOM (VVG 0134), om onder kwarantyn sy virulensie
gedurende infeksie van spanspekplante te verander. Saailinge van die spanspekkultivars
Early Sweet (geen weerstandsgene), Amber (Fom2) en Fiata (FornI, Fom2) is
opeenvolgens in twee sement trêe in 'n gaashuis verbou. Die afsonderlike aanplantings is
beëindig sodra gevorderde Fusarium-verwelksimptome verkry is, of nadat vrugte ge-oes
is. Vir die eerste aanplanting is oorgeplante Imperial 45 saailinge kunsmatig met die nil
mutant isolaat geïnokuleer. Tydens die opeenvolgende aanplantings is saad direk in die
besmette grond gesaai ten einde natuurlike infeksie te verkry. Met elke aanplanting is
isolasies gedoen vanaf verteenwoordigende plante wat Fusarium-verwelksimptome
getoon het. Alle F. oxysporum isolate wat verkry is, is ge-enkelspoor en hul nit mutant
status en VVG is bevestig. Virulensie van die gemerkte isolate is bepaal deur inokulasie
van die differensiële kultivars. Alle plante van die vatbare Imperial 45 en Early Sweet
kultivars wat in trog A geplant is, het Fusarium-verwelksimptome getoon. Die gemerkte
isolate wat vanaf die verteenwoordigende plante verkry is, is almal as ras 0 geklassifiseer.
Tydens die eerste aanplanting van die weerstandbiedende kultivar, Amber (aanplanting
No.5), het 6.7% van die plante Fusarium-verwe1ksimptome ontwikkel. Tydens die
tweede en derde aanplanting van Amber het die frekwensie van siektevoorkoms verhoog
na 56.6% en 81.8 %, onderskeidelik. In teenstelling met die vatbare kultivars, is slegs ras
2 vanuit die Amber plante met siektesimptome verkry. Soortgelyke resultate is met
Imperial 45 en Amber in trog B verkry. Aanplanting van kultivar Fiata het egter 'n
dramatiese verlaging in die voorkoms van Fusarium-verwelk bewerkstellig. Tydens die
eerste Fiata aanplanting (aanplanting No.6) het 1.2% plante Fusarium-verwelksimptome
ontwikkel, en 4% tydens die laaste aanplanting. Vanaf hierdie plante is slegs ras 1,2
isolate verkry. Hierdie bevindings, en die feit dat 'n aansienlike hoeveelheid van die
Amber (ongeveer 7-15%) en Fiata plante (ongeveer 2%) siektesimptome getoon het, bewys dat FOM vinnig van virulensie verander wanneer die patogeen 'n
weerstanbiedende kultivar infekteer.
Die vermoë van RAPD analise om tussen isolate wat in virulensie verander het, te
onderskei, is ondersoek. Vier isolate van F. oxysporum f. sp. niveum is as 'n buite-groep
ingesluit. Om te bevestig dat die isolate wat van ras verander het wel egte vaskulêre
patogene is, is 'n histopatologiese ondersoek gedoen. Die drie inleiers wat gebruik is, het
die 12 FOM isolate duidelik van die vier F. oxysporum f. sp. niveum isolate onderskei.
Die 12 FOM isolate wat drie fiosologiese rasse (ras 0, ras 2, ras 1,2) verteenwoordig het,
is egter saam gegroepeer, wat aandui dat hierdie metode nie tussen rasse van FOM kan
onderskei nie. Inokulasiestudies met die differensiële kultivars het die virulensie van die
isolate bevestig. Die histopatologiese ondersoek het verder bewys dat beide FOM rasse
(ras 2, ras 1,2) wat vanaf die wilde tipe ras ° isolaat ontstaan het, hul vermoë behou het
om as egte vaskulêre patogene op te tree.
