Rusted blue oatgrass plants with diseased leaves covered with uredinia were collected from two locations at metropolitan Vancouver, British Columbia (BC), in summer 2022. The rust fungus was identified as Puccinia gibberosa (= P. coronata var. gibberosa) based on combined results of morphological characteristics and molecular analyses. The internal transcribed spacer two (ITS2) and partial large subunit ribosomal DNA were amplified and sequenced. The sequence obtained for the rust fungus showed 99.9% identity with the previously reported P. coronata var. gibberosa from USA. This is the first report of rust caused by P. gibberosa on blue oatgrass in Canada. Evidence from phylogenetic analyses supports the recognition of this rust at the species level. A revised description for P. gibberosa is provided, including synonyms, host range and distribution across the globe, and incorporating comprehensive molecular and morphological results for several North American and European specimens. In addition, a lectotype and an epitype are designated here for the rust species.Helictotrichon sempervirens (avoine sempervirente) est une graminée vivace cultivée couramment à des fins ornementales au Canada. À l’été 2022, des plants d’avoine sempervirente rouillée dont les feuilles infectées étaient couvertes d’urédosores ont été collectés à deux endroits de la région métropolitaine de Vancouver, en Colombie-Britannique. Le champignon de la rouille a été identifié en tant que Puccinia gibberosa (= P. coronata var. gibberosa), en se basant sur les résultats combinés des analyses des caractéristiques morphologiques et moléculaires. L’espaceur transcrit interne 2 (ITS2) et la grande sous-unité partielle de l’ADN ribosomique ont été amplifiés et séquencés. La séquence obtenue pour le champignon de la rouille était identique à 99,9 % à P. coronata var. gibberosa préalablement rapporté aux États-Unis. Il s’agit de la première mention de rouille causée par P. gibberosa chez l’avoine sempervirente au Canada. L’indice obtenu des analyses phylogénétiques soutient la reconnaissance de cette rouille au niveau de l’espèce. Une description révisée de P. gibberosa est fournie, y compris les synonymes, la gamme d’hôtes ainsi que l’aire de distribution mondiale, et comprend les résultats détaillés des analyses moléculaires et morphologiques pour plusieurs spécimens nord-américains et européens.

Rust fungi in the genus Melampsora usually cause disease on Salix species. Identification of Melampsora species is often complicated because there are few differences in spore morphology and little publicly available comparative sequence data. Willow trees in Iran have been reported to be infected by 15 Melampsora species; however, most of these records are based on morphological characterization. During surveillance activities carried out in June 2007, a rust species was detected on isolated Babylon willow trees in an area in Northern Iran. Both the rust fungus and the host plant were identified on the basis of morphological features and DNA sequencing. Based on a combination of morphology, large subunit (LSU) rDNA sequencing and phylogenetic analyses, our rust specimen was identified as Melampsora ferrinii, which is newly reported from Iran on Salix babylonica. Melampsora ferrinii was originally described from the Americas and this is the first time this rust has been observed on its telial host, Babylon willow, in Asia. The documentation of the rust fungus was performed using both scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and light microscopy. Additionally, an identification key for Melampsora species reported on Salix spp. in Iran is included.En tant que ressource agroforestière, les espèces de saules (Salix spp.) deviennent de plus en plus importantes dans la protection des berges, la récupération des terres inondables, la bioremédiation des sols, la production de biomasse et la fabrication de meubles en osier.

Les champignons de la rouille du genre Melampsora provoquent généralement des maladies sur les espèces de Salix. L’identification des espèces de Melampsora est souvent compliquée en raison du peu de différences dans la morphologie des spores et du peu de données de séquence comparative accessibles au public. Des saules en Iran ont été signalés comme étant infectés par 15 espèces de Melampsora, cependant, la plupart de ces signalements sont basés sur la caractérisation morphologique.

Cultivation of FW-resistant cultivars mitigate effects of the disease and are a requirement for variety registration. Understanding the genetic inheritance of FW resistance will facilitate the development of resistant varieties. In this study, the inheritance of wilt resistance against western Canadian isolates was studied in F8 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) of a cross between cultivars Aurore (moderately resistant) and Oliver (susceptible). Seventeen Fol isolates were collected from across western Canada and tested for differences in the severity of FW on both parental lines and two check lines under controlled environment conditions. Three of the 17 isolates that caused moderate disease severity were selected to screen the RIL population. The segregation of the RILs for FW resistance was determined under controlled conditions and in field wilt nurseries. A 3:1 ratio of susceptible to resistant RILs was observed with two F. oxysporum f. sp. lini isolates, indicating FW resistance was conditioned by two independent recessive genes. Cluster analysis of disease severity data identified two major clusters of phenotypes in the RIL population, in accordance with the 3S:1 R ratio. High heritability of FW resistance was observed at the late flowering stage, indicating a high level of genotypic variation contributing to phenotypic variation.La fusariose, causée par le saprophyte facultatif fongique Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini (Fol), est une importante maladie qui nuit à la production de lin. La culture de cultivars résistants à la fusariose atténue les effets de la maladie et est une exigence quant à l’homologation des variétés. La compréhension de l’héritage génétique de la résistance à la fusariose facilitera la mise au point de variétés résistantes. Dans cette étude, l’héritage de la résistance à la flétrissure à l’égard d’isolats de l’Ouest canadien a été examiné dans des lignées endogames recombinantes F8 (LER) issues d’un croisement entre les cultivars Aurore (modérément résistant [rés.]) et Oliver (réceptif [réc.]). Dix-sept isolats de Fol ont été collectés dans tout l’Ouest canadien et testés en fonction de leurs différences relatives à la gravité de la fusariose chez les deux lignées parentales et deux lignées de validation dans des conditions contrôlées. Trois des dix-sept isolats qui ont causé une maladie de gravité modérée ont été sélectionnés pour cribler la population de LER. La ségrégation de LER en vue de la résistance à la fusariose a été déterminée dans des conditions contrôlées et dans des pépinières à fusariose en plein champ. Un rapport de 3:1 de LER réceptives à résistantes a été observé avec deux isolats de Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lini, indiquant que la résistance à la fusariose dépendait de deux gènes récessifs indépendants.

This work aimed to select biological control agents (BCAs) to control white rot. Ten microorganisms were tested for hyperparasitic activity on S. cepivora sclerotia in garlic (Allium sativum). Bioassays consisted of pots filled with sterile soil and 50 sclerotia in a plastic Tulle bag. Four microorganisms were selected to compare their capability for degrade sclerotia on garlic. Our results showed that increasing degradation happened when Th034, Th035, Th003 and Bs006 were added to the pots containing garlic. Subsequently, three application techniques (seeds, seedlings at transplant, and seeds and transplant) were evaluated. Seven BCAs applied singly and in mixtures were evaluated in semi-field experiments for their ability to reduce white rot symptoms in onion plants in soil inoculated with 300 sclerotia per kilogram. The results indicated that efficacy was dependent on microrganism, mixture, and technique of application. The synergy factor showed that only two treatments have synergistic effects. In both cases, the mixture consisted of a strain of Bacillus and two species of Trichoderma (T. koningiopsis, T. atroviride) applied twice.

Early detection of pathogens through qPCR methods has recently shown great promise and can potentially slow the spread of devastating diseases. For instance, oak wilt, a disease caused by the fungus Bretziella fagacearum, can kill mature trees within weeks of infection. Originally contained in the United States, oak wilt has finally made its way into Canada, where it was recently observed for the first time in June 2023. This study has laid the foundations for a biosurveillance monitoring program of B. fagacearum in Eastern Canada. From 2019 to 2021, insect vectors were baited and captured in Lindgren traps in various locations of interest, namely sawmills importing oak logs from the United States (US), forested areas containing mature oak trees and strategic sites along the border between the two countries. Insect vectors and collection fluids were analysed with our qPCR detection test for the presence of B. fagacearum. As a positive control to validate this method, we included traps in a known centre of oak wilt infection in Michigan (US). Our analysis showed only one positive site at the border between Ontario (CA) and the US, even though oak wilt has never been observed there. This result confirms that DNA from B. fagacearum can be detected with this method even before the appearance of symptomatic trees, which could be crucial in the current containment efforts in Ontario (CA).","PeriodicalId":9468,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Journal of Plant Pathology","volume":"93 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135539146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Galls were observed on crowns, stems and roots of several genotypes, including ‘White Rhino’, ‘Pink Kush’ and ‘Sour Kush’. The affected plants displayed no other visible symptoms. The incidence of crown gall was extremely low, estimated at 0.01% of total plants. Isolations made from root and stem galls on MacConkey medium (selective for Gram -ve bacteria) and on D1 medium (selective for Agrobacterium spp.) yielded a range of bacterial species, which did not include Agrobacterium sp. However, the presence of Agrobacterium in gall tissues was confirmed following PCR amplification with primers for the indole-acetic acid (iaa) H gene on the T-DNA region of Agrobacterium spp. and showed > 99% similarity to A. tumefaciens. Artificial inoculations were conducted using an A. tumefaciens strain from ATCC (Rhizobium radiobacter, strain designation TT134 [6-1-2, CIP 104 336], cat. 15955) which resulted in gall formation on five cannabis genotypes tested.

Iranian wheat landraces may carry important sources of resistance against rust diseases. Adult plant reactions of 467 Iranian wheat landraces to stripe rust were studied in two cropping seasons in Fars province. One hundred and six landraces showed acceptable levels of resistance and were selected for further seedling and molecular studies based on their lower infection type, coefficient of infection (CI) and average coefficient of infection (ACI). The presence of Yr4, Yr10, Yr24 and Yr32 resistance genes were postulated using 10 different Pst isolates including PstS10, PstS7, PstS3, PstS2+V27, PstS11, PstS8, PstS13, PstS6, PstS0 and Me2018 under greenhouse conditions. Field and greenhouse reactions of near-isogenic lines reconfirmed the presence of the studied Yr resistance genes in 20 genotypes. Moreover, Xcfb3530 150 , Xpsp3000, Xgwm11, and Xwmc198 SSR markers were employed to identify and validate the presence of the above corresponding genes. The presence of Yr4, Yr10, Yr24 and Yr32 resistance genes in five (1.07%), 10 (2.14%), five (1.07%) and seven (1.5%) experimental landraces were confirmed, respectively.
