Surface rodlets of Tilletia indica teliospores.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Tilletia indica teliospores were studied by use of thin sections and freeze-etch replicas. Surfaces of these spores have rodlet patterns which differ from those previously reported for spores of other fungi. The rodlets on T. indica teliospores average 240 nm in length and are not grouped into fascicles.

Effect of biofumigation with volatiles from Muscodor albus on the viability of Tilletia spp. teliospores.
Volatile organic compounds produced by the fungus Muscodor albus inhibit or kill numerous fungi. The effect of these volatiles was tested on dormant and physiologically active teliospores of the smut fungi Tilletia horrida, Tilletia indica, and Tilletia tritici, which cause kernel smut of rice, Karnal bunt of wheat, and common bunt of wheat, respectively. Reactivated rye grain culture of M. alb...
متن کاملImproved Detection of Tilletia indica Teliospores in Seed or Soil by Elimination of Contaminating Microorganisms with Acidic Electrolyzed Water
The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of acidic electrolyzed water (AEW) to eliminate microorganisms other than Tilletia indica Mitra teliospores from wheat seed and soil extracts. The teliospores then can be identified by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test (9,10,26). Growth of contaminants can obscure germinating T. indica teliospores and inhibit teliospore germination ...
متن کاملDNA Marker of Tilletia controversa Kühn, a Causal Agent of Wheat Dwarf Bunt
Dwarf bunt of wheat, caused by Tilletia controversa Kühn (TCK), is a destructive disease on wheat, as well as an important international quarantine disease. The traditional methods for diagnosis and detection of the disease were mostly based on the morphological characteristics, germination test of teliospores, and the symptom of disease in the field, resulting in a long procedure and low accur...
متن کاملSusceptibility of Wheat to Tilletia indica During Stages of Spike Development.
ABSTRACT Karnal bunt of wheat is caused by the fungus Tilletia indica, which partially converts kernels into sori filled with teliospores. Despite minor overall yield and quality losses, the disease is of considerable international quarantine concern. Plant development stages reported susceptible to infection vary considerably. A study was designed to better define the susceptibility period by ...
متن کاملAn Allee Effect Reduces the Invasive Potential of Tilletia indica.
ABSTRACT The Karnal bunt pathogen, Tilletia indica, is heterothallic and depends on encounters on wheat spikes between airborne secondary sporidia of different mating types for successful infection and reproduction. This life history characteristic results in reduced reproductive success for lower population densities. Such destabilizing density dependence at low population levels has been desc...
