Assessment of Potential for Biological Control of Botrytis cinerea by an Indigenous Trichoderma harzianum Isolate with a Novel Detached Leaf-droplet Inoculation Bioassay and Correlated Increase in Phytoalexin Production
A simple detached leaf-droplet inoculation bioassay was devised in order to investigate the potential for biological control of Botrytis cinerea by indigenous Trichoderma harzianum isolates. Following preliminary in vitro screening of the antagonistic capacity of four local isolates of Trichoderma harzianum (T1-T4) against B. cinerea, T3 spore suspensions were then tested for their ability to c...
متن کاملAnalysis of Cryptic, Systemic Botrytis Infections in Symptomless Hosts
Botrytis species are generally considered to be aggressive, necrotrophic plant pathogens. By contrast to this general perception, however, Botrytis species could frequently be isolated from the interior of multiple tissues in apparently healthy hosts of many species. Infection frequencies reached 50% of samples or more, but were commonly less, and cryptic infections were rare or absent in some ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Lettuce Germplasm Resistance to Gray Mold Disease for Organic Cultivations
This study was conducted to evaluate the resistance of 212 accessions of lettuce germplasm to gray mold disease caused by Botrytis cinerea. The lettuce germplasm were composed of five species: Lactuca sativa (193 accessions), L. sativa var. longifolia (2 accessions), L. sativa var. crispa (2 accessions), L. saligna (2 accessions), and L. serriola (1 accession); majority of these originated from...
متن کاملIdentification of Arabidopsis accession with resistance to Botrytis cinerea by natural variation analysis, and characterization of the resistance response
Botrytis cinerea is a ubiquitous necrotrophic fungal pathogen that infects over 200 different plant species. We have analyzed 17 Arabidopsis ecotypes for natural variations in their susceptibility to B. cinerea, and found compatible and incompatible Arabidopsis–Botrytis interactions. We determined that Arabidopsis ecotype Ler is resistant to 5 B. cinerea isolates used in this study. To further ...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Characterization of ISR Induced in Arabidopsis thaliana by Trichoderma hamatum T382 Against Botrytis cinerea Infection
In this study, the molecular basis of the induced systemic resistance (ISR) in Arabidopsis thaliana by the biocontrol fungus Trichoderma hamatum T382 against the phytopathogen Botrytis cinerea B05-10 was unraveled by microarray analysis both before (ISR-prime) and after (ISR-boost) additional pathogen inoculation. The observed high numbers of differentially expressed genes allowed us to classif...
