Draft Genome Sequence of the Mycoparasitic Oomycete Pythium oligandrum Strain CBS 530.74
The oomycete Pythium oligandrum is a mycoparasite and licenced biological control agent. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of P. oligandrum strain CBS 530.74, which is 36.80 Mb. It contains 341 scaffolds and 11,647 predicted protein-coding genes. As reported for plant-pathogenic Pythium species, RXLR-type effector sequences are absent.
متن کاملInfluence of Pythium oligandrum biocontrol on fungal and oomycete population dynamics in the rhizosphere.
Fungal and oomycete populations and their dynamics were investigated following the introduction of the biocontrol agent Pythium oligandrum into the rhizosphere of tomato plants grown in soilless culture. Three strains of P. oligandrum were selected on the basis of their ability to form oospores (resting structures) and to produce tryptamine (an auxin-like compound) and oligandrin (a glycoprotei...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of the Mycoparasitic Oomycete Pythium periplocum Strain CBS 532.74
The oomycete Pythium periplocum is an aggressive mycoparasite of a number of plant pathogenic fungi and oomycetes and therefore has potential as a biological control agent. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence of P. periplocum, which comprises 35.89 Mb. It contains 1,043 scaffolds and 14,399 predicted protein-coding genes.
متن کاملCharacterisation of the early events in atypical tomato root colonisation by a biocontrol agent, Pythium oligandrum.
The specific oomycete-plant relationship established between a biological agent, Pythium oligandrum, and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) plants was examined over the first 48 h after inoculation of tomato roots with the antagonist. One of the most significant effects was the quick colonisation of cortical and vascular root areas by P. oligandrum (until 9 h post-inoculation); it was simil...
متن کاملCytological effects of cellulases in the parasitism of Phytophthora parasitica by Pythium oligandrum.
The ubiquitous oomycete Pythium oligandrum is a potential biocontrol agent for use against a wide range of pathogenic fungi and an inducer of plant disease resistance. The ability of P. oligandrum to compete with root pathogens for saprophytic colonization of substrates may be critical for pathogen increase in soil, but other mechanisms, including antibiosis and enzyme production, also may play...
