Labor-saving Preservation of Powdery Mildew of Strawberry by Sterilized Seedling Culture

چکیده
Various preservation methods at low temperature have been reported for several powdery mildew fungi, but the conidia of Podosphaera aphanis causing powdery mildew of strawberry could not be preserved either at low temperature or by freeze-drying and liquid-drying of conidial suspensions or diseased leaf discs. Here, we developed a new technique for a labor-saving preservation of the conidia of the fungus by using the aseptic seedling culture of strawberry. Conidia produced on the seedlings could be preserved at 5 C for six months. Using this method, we could obtain the stable stock cultures of 12 strains collected from various regions in Japan.

Benzothiadiazole induces the accumulation of phenolics and improves resistance to powdery mildew in strawberries.
Benzothiadiazole (BTH) enhanced the accumulation of soluble and cell-wall-bound phenolics in strawberry leaves and also improved the resistance to powdery mildew infection under greenhouse conditions. The most pronounced change was seen in the levels of ellagitannins, which increased up to 2- to 6-fold 4 days after the BTH application, but persisted only in the inoculated plants. The induction ...

The use of a microorganism, or its secretions, to prevent plant disease offers an attractive alternative or supplement to synthetic fungicides for the management of plant disease without the negative effects of chemical control mechanisms. During a screening for microorganisms with the potential to be used as microbial fungicides, Bacillus sp. BS061 was isolated from a plant leaf. The strain BS...

Plant sense potential microbial pathogen using pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) to recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). The Lectin receptor-like kinase genes (LecRKs) are involved in various cellular processes mediated by signal transduction pathways. In the present study, an L-type lectin receptor kinase gene LecRK-V was cloned from Haynaldia villosa, a diploid wheat r...

In this research,for taxonomic studies and identification of the fungi associated with the powdery mildew(Oidium euonymi- japonici) of Buxus trees (Euonymus japonica), the infected leaves were collected during autumn and winter 2012-2013 in Gorgan (Golestan province -Iran). The samples after washing and surface sterilizing, were cultured on PDA medium(with boxwood extract).Then based on availab...
متن کاملEfficiency of resistance genes in wheat to powdery mildew in some centers of disease incidence in Iran
Wheat powdery mildew caused by fungal pathogen Blumeria graminis f.sp. tritici is a destructive wheat disease, occurring in regions with cool and humid climates. In order to investigate the changes in pathogenicity of the disease and to identify the effective genetic source of resistance, a total of 29 wheat genotypes with different resistance major genes (Pm) were studied in two hotspots of Go...
