Determining frequencies of avirulent alleles in airborne inoculum of Leptosphaeria maculans using molecular assays
Control of blackleg (phoma stem canker) disease relies on crop management, fungicides and breeding for disease resistance. Proteins encoded by these resistance genes recognize avirulence (Avr) gene products in the fungus during invasion of the plant. However, these Avr genes can mutate resulting in fungal isolates becoming virulent, thus avoiding recognition by the plant. Widespread use of cult...
متن کاملEffects of Leptosphaeria maculans race structure and fitness cost of virulence on management of phoma stem canker in oilseed rape
Fitness of virulent (avrLm1 and avrLm4) or avirulent (AvrLm1 and AvrLm4) isolates of Leptosphaeria maculans on Brassica napus without the corresponding resistance genes Rlm1 and Rlm4 was investigated in controlled environment (CE) and field experiments. Results indicate that there is a measurable fitness cost for virulent isolates compared to avirulent isolates in terms of number of lesions, si...
متن کاملSeasonal and Diurnal Patterns of Spore Dispersal by Leptosphaeria maculans
Canola (Brassica napus L. and B. rapa L.), is one of the major oilseed crops grown worldwide. With significant expansion of acreage sown to canola during the past two decades, concern about blackleg, the most serious disease of canola, has increased (3,4). Blackleg disease is caused by Leptosphaeria maculans (Desmaz.) Ces. & De Not. (anamorph: Phoma lingam (Tode:Fr.) Desmaz.). The pathogen can ...
متن کاملDetection of Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa Causing Blackleg Disease in Canola from Canadian Canola Seed Lots and Dockage.
Blackleg, caused by Leptosphaeria maculans, is a major threat to canola production in Canada. With the exception of China, L. maculans is present in areas around the world where cruciferous crops are grown. The pathogen can cause trade barriers in international canola seed export due to its potential risk as a seed contaminant. The most recent example is China restricting canola seeds imported ...
متن کاملAssessing Quantitative Resistance against Leptosphaeria maculans (Phoma Stem Canker) in Brassica napus (Oilseed Rape) in Young Plants
Quantitative resistance against Leptosphaeria maculans in Brassica napus is difficult to assess in young plants due to the long period of symptomless growth of the pathogen from the appearance of leaf lesions to the appearance of canker symptoms on the stem. By using doubled haploid (DH) lines A30 (susceptible) and C119 (with quantitative resistance), quantitative resistance against L. maculans...
