Comparison of transcription of multiple genes at three developmental stages of the plant pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.
The ascomycete Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a plant pathogen with a very broad host range. In order to identify and characterize genes involved in S. sclerotiorum infection of Brassica napus (canola), expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were examined from libraries prepared from three tissues: complex appressorium (infection cushions), mycelia grown on agar and lesions formed on leaves of B. napus. A...
متن کاملAntagonism of Aspergillus Terreus to Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum
An Aspergillus terreus strain showed in vitro antagonistic activity against the plant pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary. The interaction between A. terreus and sclerotia revealed that the mycoparasite sporulated abundantly on the sclerotial surface. Cell breakdown due to host cell wall disruption was observed in inner rind cells, by a scanning electron microscopy.
متن کاملOxalic acid, a pathogenicity factor for Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, suppresses the oxidative burst of the host plant.
Effective pathogenesis by the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum requires the secretion of oxalic acid. Studies were conducted to determine whether oxalate aids pathogen compatibility by modulating the oxidative burst of the host plant. Inoculation of tobacco leaves with an oxalate-deficient nonpathogenic mutant of S. sclerotiorum induced measurable oxidant biosynthesis, but inoculation with an ox...
متن کاملManipulation of the Xanthophyll Cycle Increases Plant Susceptibility to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum
The xanthophyll cycle is involved in dissipating excess light energy to protect the photosynthetic apparatus in a process commonly assessed from non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) of chlorophyll fluorescence. Here, it is shown that the xanthophyll cycle is modulated by the necrotrophic pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum at the early stage of infection. Incubation of Sclerotinia led to a localized...
متن کاملCharacterization of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum Isolated from Paprika
A fungal isolate collected from infected paprika (Capsicum annuum var. grossum) was characterized as Sclerotinia sclerotiorum based on its ability of sclerotium formation, physiological and molecular properties. When the isolate was grown on potato dextrose agar, oatmeal agar, and malt extract agar, it grew most well on PDA. Optimal temperature and pH for its growth were 25℃ and pH 7, respectiv...
