Molecular phylogeny of the symbiotic actinomycetes of the genus Frankia matches host-plant infection processes.
Nucleotide sequences of approximately 213 bp of the nif H-D intergene and the beginning of nifD were determined for symbiotic Frankia isolates from the major host-infectivity groups. This region of the nif operon is variable enough to classify most infective Frankia strains at the species level. Phylogenetic inferences from these sequences are in agreement with the 16S rRNA-derived phylogeny of...
متن کاملHost Plant Compatibility Shapes the Proteogenome of Frankia coriariae
Molecular signaling networks in the actinorhizal rhizosphere select host-compatible Frankia strains, trigger the infection process and eventually the genesis of nitrogen-fixing nodules. The molecular triggers involved remain difficult to ascertain. Root exudates (RE) are highly dynamic substrates that play key roles in establishing the rhizosphere microbiome. RE are known to induce the secretio...
متن کاملMacroevolution of insect-plant associations: the relevance of host biogeography to host affiliation.
Identifying the factors that have promoted host shifts by phytophagous insects at a macroevolutionary scale is critical to understanding the associations between plants and insects. We used molecular phylogenies of the beetle genus Blepharida and its host genus Bursera to test whether these insects have been using hosts with widely overlapping ranges over evolutionary time. We also quantified t...
متن کاملPhylogenetic signal in plant pathogen-host range.
What determines which plant species are susceptible to a given plant pathogen is poorly understood. Experimental inoculations with fungal pathogens of plant leaves in a tropical rain forest show that most fungal pathogens are polyphagous but that most plant species in a local community are resistant to any given pathogen. The likelihood that a pathogen can infect two plant species decreases con...
متن کاملVegetative compatibility, host range and pathogenicity of Verticillium dahliae isolates in Iran
Verticillium wilt is an economically important disease which inflicts serious losses in potato, cotton, alfalfa, some vegetable crops and fruit trees and occasionally ornamentals. Verticillium dahliae, infected cultivated species and weeds were collected from several areas in Iran during tewelve years from 1993-2005 and studied for their vegetative compatibility, host range and pathogenecity. T...
