3Rd International Symposium on Organic Greenhouse Horticulture 11 - 14 April 2016 Izmir, Turkey 3RD INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ORGANIC GREENHOUSE HORTICULTURE 11 - 14 APRIL 2016 IZMIR, TURKEY ABSTRACT BOOK 3RD INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ORGANIC GREENHOUSE HORTICULTURE 11 - 14 April 2016 • Izmir, TURKEY Welcome to 3rd International Symposium on Organic Greenhouse Horticulture Ege University, Faculty of Agriculture and the International Society for Horticultural Science (ISHS), represented by the Commissions for Organic Horticulture, Protected Cultivation and Horticultural Engineering, Working Group Organic Greenhouse Horticulture and the COST Action FA1105 Biogreenhouse have the honor to welcome all engaged in research, producers, teaching, extension, and public services, private sector and stakeholders related to organic greenhouse horticulture to attend the “3rd International Symposium on Organic Greenhouse Horticulture”. The Symposium is held in Turkey from April 11 to 14, 2016. The Symposium have both a scientific program and a technical program presented in parallel as well as one day field tour during which different organic protected cropping systems will be visited. The scientific program includes three days of invited lectures, oral presentations, and poster sessions covering all aspects of organic greenhouse farming. The 3rd International Symposium on Organic Greenhouse Horticulture focuses on soil and plant health via the use of appropriate robust plant material, the soil, water and nutrient management, including compost quality, as well as the plant protection. Energy use efficiency and sustainability of organic growing systems will also be important issues. Major points such as market development, product quality and regulation will be discussed between researchers and all stakeholders. During this unique event, scientists are also invited to transfer their research achievements and knowledge to practitioners in order to establish close collaboration and fill fundamental and apply research gaps. The technical program includes three days of knowledge transfer sessions covering all aspects of organic protected crops where stakeholders such as growers, suppliers (i.e. seed, fertilizers, compost, and nursery), managers, consultants, governmental advisors, educators, certification bodies and policy makers will exchange their expertise and discuss on key topics in order to provide innovative and practical solutions to important issues and barriers that the organic sector have to face to insure its competitivity and profitability. We are also going to host FAO Workshop on Manual on Good Agricultural Practices for Greenhouse Vegetable in South-Eastern-European countries as a side event. We hope that we will be able to share our experience and contribute to the development of protected organic horticulture during the meetings. Have a nice time in Turkey and enjoy your stay here.

In response to increasing demand for organic products, sales of organic foods have increased fivefold between 1999 and 2014, reaching 80 billion of US dollars. In USA, the biggest organic market (35.9 billion US dollars of retail ORAL PRESENTATIONS sales) grew by more than 11% in 2014 over 2013, while in Europe an increase of 7.6% was observed with 26.2 billion euros of retail sales, and this global organic market is projected to double by 2018 (Reganold and Wachter, 2016). The growing popularity of organic food products is driven by health values and safety issues (e.g. pesticides, hormones, antibiotics, GMOs), environmental benefits and equity concerns. Organic foods also give certainty to consumers about food origins and production methods. Although the demand for fruits and vegetables is around 30 to 40% of the global demand, the total area under organic vegetable production is only 0.5% of the total area of vegetables grown in the world. Forty-five percent of the total vegetable organic farmland is in Europe, followed by North America (22%), Latin America (18%) and Asia (12%). The five countries with the largest organic vegetable areas are the United States (59,669 ha), Mexico (46,573 ha), Poland (26,664 ha), Italy (25,930 ha) and China (22,331 ha). Main crops are fresh beans and peas, leafy and stalked vegetables and fruit vegetables. The world greenhouse industry represents around 473 466 ha, with a 14% increase over 2015. The total area for organic greenhouse crops in Europe is approximately 3 700 ha (~1500 ha Spain; 1 000 ha Italy, 500 ha France, 150 ha Germany, 100 ha The Netherlands, 80 ha UK, 57 ha Switzerland, 30 ha Austria, 32 ha Belgium, 46 ha Nordic/Scandinavia), which is almost entirely used for fruit vegetables and lettuce. In non-EU countries, organic greenhouses cover 500 ha in Israel, 230 ha Morocco, 30 ha in Egypt, (van der Lans et al., 2011, Meijer, 2016) and more than 1 500 ha in North America, mainly located in Mexico. In the USA, organic protected vegetables cover 186 ha (farm sale value of 76.2 million US$), while in Canada 241 ha of heated greenhouse are organically certified, representing 5.2% of all organic and transitional farms, and 15% of the total greenhouse area. Additional cultivated land for fruit and vegetable production is also managed organically but not certified, owing to substantial costs involved. In northern countries, organic protected production is often year-round conducted under high technology and heated greenhouses, while in the Mediterranean area greenhouse production is mainly done in unheated plastic greenhouses

    Phylogenetics and Taxonomy of the Fungal Vascular Wilt Pathogen Verticillium, with the Descriptions of Five New Species Patrik Inderbitzin1, Richard M. Bostock1, R. Michael Davis1, Toshiyuki Usami2, Harold W. Platt3, Krishna V. Subbarao1* 1 Department of Plant Pathology, University of California Davis, Davis, California, United States of America, 2 Graduate School of Horticulture, Chiba University, Matsudo, Chiba, Japan, 3 Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Charlottetown Research Centre, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada Abstract Knowledge of pathogen biology and genetic diversity is a cornerstone of effective disease management, and accurate identification of the pathogen is a foundation of pathogen biology. Species names provide an ideal framework for storage and retrieval of relevant information, a system that is contingent on a clear understanding of species boundaries and consistent species identification. Verticillium, a genus of ascomycete fungi, contains important plant pathogens whose species boundaries have been ill defined. Using phylogenetic analyses, morphological investigations and comparisons to herbarium material and the literature, we established a taxonomic framework for Verticillium comprising ten species, five of which are new to science. We used a collection of 74 isolates representing much of the diversity of Verticillium, and phylogenetic analyses based on the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), partial sequences of the protein coding genes actin (ACT), elongation factor 1-alpha (EF), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD) and tryptophan synthase (TS). Combined analyses of the ACT, EF, GPD and TS datasets recognized two major groups within Verticillium, Clade Flavexudans and Clade Flavnonexudans, reflecting the respective production and absence of yellow hyphal pigments. Clade Flavexudans comprised V. albo-atrum and V.

Endophytic fungi associated with cabbage in New Zealand and their potential for biological control A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Michal Kuch´ar Bio-Protection Research Centre Lincoln University, New Zealand 2019 Abstract Agricultural crops such as cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata) are vulnerable to a plethora of pests and diseases. Endophytic fungi are increasingly used in biological control against these pests and diseases as agricultural producers attempt to reduce their environmental footprint. In this study, putative endophytic fungi were isolated from cabbage grown in three regions in New Zealand in order to identify isolates with potential to assist crop production. Isolation method was optimised in an exploratory study, and subsequently large scale sampling took place, where a culture-independent method was also used to detect fungi associated with cabbage. Spatial patterns in fungal communities in various plant tissues and geographical regions were investigated based on data obtained by culture-dependent and culture-independent methods.

  • Sodiomyces Alkalinus, a New Holomorphic Alkaliphilic Ascomycete Within the Plectosphaerellaceae
    Persoonia 31, 2013: 147–158 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/pimj RESEARCH ARTICLE http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/003158513X673080 Sodiomyces alkalinus, a new holomorphic alkaliphilic ascomycete within the Plectosphaerellaceae A.A. Grum-Grzhimaylo1,3, A.J.M. Debets1, A.D. van Diepeningen2, M.L. Georgieva3, E.N. Bilanenko3 Key words Abstract In this study we reassess the taxonomic reference of the previously described holomorphic alkaliphilic fungus Heleococcum alkalinum isolated from soda soils in Russia, Mongolia and Tanzania. We show that it is not alkaliphilic fungi an actual member of the genus Heleococcum (order Hypocreales) as stated before and should, therefore, be ex- growth cluded from it and renamed. Multi-locus gene phylogeny analyses (based on nuclear ITS, 5.8S rDNA, 28S rDNA, Heleococcum alkalinum 18S rDNA, RPB2 and TEF1-alpha) have displayed this fungus as a new taxon at the genus level within the family molecular phylogeny Plectosphaerellaceae, Hypocreomycetidae, Ascomycota. The reference species of actual Heleococcum members scanning electron microscopy showed clear divergence from the strongly supported Heleococcum alkalinum position within the Plectosphaerel- taxonomy laceae, sister to the family Glomerellaceae. Eighteen strains isolated from soda lakes around the world show remarkable genetic similarity promoting speculations on their possible evolution in harsh alkaline environments. We established the pH growth optimum of this alkaliphilic fungus at c. pH 10 and tested growth on 30 carbon sources at pH 7 and 10. The new genus and species, Sodiomyces alkalinus gen. nov. comb. nov., is the second holomorphic fungus known within the family, the first one being Plectosphaerella – some members of this genus are known to be alkalitolerant.

Characterising plant pathogen communities and their environmental drivers at a national scale A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Andreas Makiola Lincoln University, New Zealand 2019 General abstract Plant pathogens play a critical role for global food security, conservation of natural ecosystems and future resilience and sustainability of ecosystem services in general. Thus, it is crucial to understand the large-scale processes that shape plant pathogen communities. The recent drop in DNA sequencing costs offers, for the first time, the opportunity to study multiple plant pathogens simultaneously in their naturally occurring environment effectively at large scale. In this thesis, my aims were (1) to employ next-generation sequencing (NGS) based metabarcoding for the detection and identification of plant pathogens at the ecosystem scale in New Zealand, (2) to characterise plant pathogen communities, and (3) to determine the environmental drivers of these communities. First, I investigated the suitability of NGS for the detection, identification and quantification of plant pathogens using rust fungi as a model system.

    Nouvelle méthode de dépistage de phytopathogènes fongiques et de plantes au potentiel envahissant par métabarcodage Thèse Emilie Tremblay Doctorat en microbiologie Philosophiæ doctor (Ph. D.) Québec, Canada © Emilie Tremblay, 2019 NOUVELLE MÉTHODE DE DÉPISTAGE DE PHYTOPATHOGÈNES FONGIQUES ET DE PLANTES AU POTENTIEL ENVAHISSANT PAR MÉTABARCODAGE Thèse ÉMILIE D. TREMBLAY Sous la direction de : Claude Lemieux, directeur de recherche Guillaume Bilodeau, codirecteur de recherche Résumé Les dommages causés par les pathogènes des plantes sont une menace redoutable pour l’environnement, la diversité, ainsi que pour une partie considérable des ressources naturelles forestières et agronomiques telles que les arbres, les plantes et les récoltes. Les endroits situés à proximité des ports d’importation pour le commerce international et des sites de décharge de déchets verts sont considérés comme étant à risque pour l’introduction d’organismes exotiques et indésirables tels que des insectes, des phytopathogènes et des plantes envahissantes. Bien qu’il existe plusieurs méthodes développées et validées selon des standards établis visant à détecter certains genres préoccupants ou espèces ciblées, la plupart d’entre elles sont mal adaptées aux analyses à grande échelle ou sont limitées en ce qui concerne le nombre d’organismes différents pouvant être détectés simultanément. L’objectif principal de ce projet était de développer une méthode de détection nouvelle, plus rapide, à haut débit, hyper sensible et couvrant de plus grandes superficies afin de contribuer à l’amélioration des méthodes de dépistage et de lutte contre les phytopathogènes et les espèces envahissantes. Le projet a tiré avantage d’enquêtes en entomologie d’envergure nationale et préétablies par l’Agence Canadienne d’Inspection des Aliments en réutilisant les liquides de préservation provenant de pièges à insectes.

    molecules Review Alternative Molecular-Based Diagnostic Methods of Plant Pathogenic Fungi Affecting Berry Crops—A Review Dominika Malarczyk , Jacek Panek * and Magdalena Fr ˛ac Institute of Agrophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, 20-290 Lublin, Poland; [email protected] (D.M.); [email protected] (M.F.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +48-81-744-5061 (int. 207) Academic Editors: Jacek Namie´snikand Justyna Płotka-Wasylka Received: 13 February 2019; Accepted: 23 March 2019; Published: 27 March 2019 Abstract: Increasing consumer awareness of potentially harmful pesticides used in conventional agriculture has prompted organic farming to become notably more prevalent in recent decades. Central European countries are some of the most important producers of blueberries, raspberries and strawberries in the world and organic cultivation methods for these fruits have a significant market share. Fungal pathogens are considered to be the most significant threat to organic crops of berries, causing serious economic losses and reducing yields. In order to ameliorate the harmful effects of pathogenic fungi on cultivations, the application of rapid and effective identification methods is essential. At present, various molecular methods are applied for fungal species recognition, such as PCR, qPCR, LAMP and NGS. Keywords: Colletotrichum acutatum; Verticillium spp.; Phytophthora spp.; Botrytis cinerea; PCR; qPCR; molecular identification; phytopathogenic fungi; strawberry; organic agriculture 1. Introduction Organic fruit production has been increasing constantly in recent decades and has also increased its market share in the production of food worldwide. Strawberry, blueberry and raspberry fruits are important products of Central Europe and increasing consumer demand to introduce organic methods of fruit cultivation is a major reason to seek alternative ways to reduce losses.

  • Identification and Differentiation of Verticillium Species and V. Longisporum Lineages by Simplex and Multiplex PCR Assays
    Identification and Differentiation of Verticillium Species and V. longisporum Lineages by Simplex and Multiplex PCR Assays Patrik Inderbitzin, R. Michael Davis, Richard M. Bostock, Krishna V. Subbarao* Department of Plant Pathology, University of California Davis, Davis, California, United States of America Abstract Accurate species identification is essential for effective plant disease management, but is challenging in fungi including Verticillium sensu stricto (Ascomycota, Sordariomycetes, Plectosphaerellaceae), a small genus of ten species that includes important plant pathogens. Here we present fifteen PCR assays for the identification of all recognized Verticillium species and the three lineages of the diploid hybrid V. longisporum. The assays were based on DNA sequence data from the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer region, and coding and non-coding regions of actin, elongation factor 1-alpha, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and tryptophan synthase genes. The eleven single target (simplex) PCR assays resulted in amplicons of diagnostic size for V. alfalfae, V. albo-atrum, V. dahliae including V. longisporum lineage A1/D3, V. isaacii, V. klebahnii, V. nonalfalfae, V. nubilum, V. tricorpus, V. zaregamsianum, and Species A1 and Species D1, the two undescribed ancestors of V. longisporum. The four multiple target (multiplex) PCR assays simultaneously differentiated the species or lineages within the following four groups: Verticillium albo-atrum, V. alfalfae and V. nonalfalfae; Verticillium dahliae and V. longisporum lineages A1/D1, A1/D2 and A1/D3; Verticillium dahliae including V. longisporum lineage A1/D3, V. isaacii, V. klebahnii and V. tricorpus; Verticillium isaacii, V. klebahnii and V. tricorpus. Since V. dahliae is a parent of two of the three lineages of the diploid hybrid V.
