Endophytes have shown the potential for the biological control of diseases. The colonization ability of native endophyte strains of Beauveria bassiana and their antifungal effect against B. cinerea were evaluated in Solanaceae crops. Root drenching with B. bassiana was applied, and endophytic colonization capacity in roots, stems, and leaves was determined. The antagonistic activity was evaluated using in vitro dual culture and also plants by drenching the endophyte on the root and by pathogen inoculation in the leaves. Ten native strains were endophytes of tomato, and eight were endophytes of chili pepper. All strains showed significant in vitro antagonism against B. cinerea (30–36%). A high antifungal effect was observed, and strains RGM547 and RGM644 showed the lowest percentage of the surface affected by the pathogen.

As a molecularly under-studied organism, its genome was only sequenced at the beginning of this century and it was recently updated with improved gene annotation and completeness. In this review, we summarize key molecular studies on B. cinerea developmental and pathogenesis processes, specifically on genes studied comprehensively with mutant analysis. Analyses of these studies have unveiled key genes in the biological processes of this pathogen, including hyphal growth, sclerotial formation, conidiation, pathogenicity and melanization. In addition, our synthesis has uncovered gaps in the present knowledge regarding development and virulence mechanisms. We hope this review will serve to enhance the knowledge of the biological mechanisms behind this notorious fungal pathogen. Keywords: airborne fungal pathogen; Botrytis cinerea; fungal pathogenesis; sclerotial development; fungal growth; conidiation; melanization 1. Introduction Ascomycete Botrytis cinerea is a fungal pathogen responsible for gray (or grey) mold diseases.

  • Neck Rot of Onion
    U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service Systematic Mycology and Microbiology Laboratory - Invasive Fungi Fact Sheets Neck rot of onion - Ciborinia allii Neck rot of onion occurs on the vegetative organs of onions including the bulbs and are known especially at the vegetative stage and as a post-harvest disease. Confusion exists about the causal organism thus it is unclear how widespread is this pathogen in the United States and Europe. Based on recent understanding of the Botrytis-like species on Allium, Ciborina allii is known primarily from Asia. The anamorph Botrytis allii has since been shown to be a natural hybrid resulting from a cross of B. byssoidea with B. aclada (Nielsen et al., 2002; Staats et al., 2005) but it is unclear if this is the asexual state of C. allii. Ciborinia allii L.M. Kohn 1979 Apothecia arising from sclerotia, disc-shaped, stipitate, pale brown, nearly glabrous. Paraphyses filiform, hyaline, septate, with 2-3 branches. Asci cylindrical asci, 184–212 x 12–18 µm (136–190 x 10–16 µm fide Yamamoto et al., 1956), with eight ascospores. Ascospores hyaline, ellipsoid, 17–21 x 7–11 µm (15–23 x 8–12 µm fide Yamamoto et al., 1956). Sclerotia blackish-brown to black, subepidermal, densely pitted on upper surface, 1–7 x 0.5–2 mm, 0.3–0.7 mm thick, outer layer pseudoparenchymatous, interior hyaline. Microconidia globose, 3–4 µm diam. Cottony white mycelium, sclerotia and sparse conidia develop in culture. Major hosts: Allium cepa L. (onion), Allium fistulosum L.

FUNGICIDE RESISTANCE IN BOTRYTIS CINEREA FROM STRAWBERRY - MOLECULAR MECHANISMS AND MANAGEMENT A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Plant and Environmental Sciences by Anja Grabke May 2014 Accepted by: Dr. Guido Schnabel, Committee Chair Dr. Paula Agudelo Dr. Julia Kerrigan ABSTRACT The United States is the largest producer of strawberries worldwide, generating approximately $2.4 billion worth of fruit each year. Strawberry production, however, is often threatened by pathogens. One of the most destructive fungal pathogens is Botrytis cinerea, the causal agent of gray mold disease. The control of gray mold in commercial fields is largely dependent on the application of fungicides, including the dicarboximide iprodione and the hydroxyanilide fenhexamid. Because both fungicides are prone to resistance development, a survey was conducted to determine the occurrence and prevalence of fungicide resistance.

  • A Case Report of Pulmonary Botrytis Sp. Infection in an Apparently
    Hashimoto et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2019) 19:684 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12879-019-4319-2 CASE REPORT Open Access A case report of pulmonary Botrytis sp. infection in an apparently healthy individual Seishu Hashimoto1*, Eisaku Tanaka1, Masakuni Ueyama1, Satoru Terada1, Takashi Inao1, Yusuke Kaji1, Takehiro Yasuda1, Takashi Hajiro1, Tatsuo Nakagawa2, Satoshi Noma3, Gen Honjo4, Yoichiro Kobashi4, Noriyuki Abe5, Katsuhiko Kamei6 and Yoshio Taguchi1 Abstract Background: Botrytis species are well known fungal pathogens of various plants but have not been reported as human pathogens, except as allergenic precipitants of asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Case presentation: The asymptomatic patient was referred because of a nodule revealed by chest X-ray. Computed tomography (CT) showed a cavitary nodule in the right upper lobe of the lung. He underwent wedge resection of the nodule, which revealed necrotizing granulomas and a fungus ball containing Y-shaped filamentous fungi, which was confirmed histopathologically. Culture of the specimen yielded white to grayish cotton-like colonies with black sclerotia. We performed multilocus gene sequence analyses including three single-copy nuclear DNA genes encoding glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, heat-shock protein 60, and DNA-dependent RNA polymerase subunit II. The analyses revealed that the isolate was most similar to Botrytis elliptica. To date, the pulmonary Botrytis sp. infection has not recurred after lung resection and the patient did not require any additional medication. Conclusions: We report the first case of an immunocompetent patient with pulmonary Botrytis sp. infection, which has not recurred after lung resection without any additional medication. Precise evaluation is necessary for the diagnosis of pulmonary Botrytis infection because it is indistinguishable from other filamentous fungi both radiologically and by histopathology.

  • An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented In
    An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Django Grootmyers The Ohio State University April 2021 1 ABSTRACT Fungi are a large and diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that play important roles in nutrient cycling in ecosystems worldwide. Fungi are poorly documented compared to plants in Ohio despite 197 years of collecting activity, and an attempt to compile all the species of fungi known from Ohio has not been completed since 1894. This paper compiles the species of fungi currently known from Ohio based on vouchered fungal collections available in digitized form at the Mycology Collections Portal (MyCoPortal) and other online collections databases and new collections by the author. All groups of fungi are treated, including lichens and microfungi. 69,795 total records of Ohio fungi were processed, resulting in a list of 4,865 total species-level taxa. 250 of these taxa are newly reported from Ohio in this work. 229 of the taxa known from Ohio are species that were originally described from Ohio. A number of potentially novel fungal species were discovered over the course of this study and will be described in future publications. The insights gained from this work will be useful in facilitating future research on Ohio fungi, developing more comprehensive and modern guides to Ohio fungi, and beginning to investigate the possibility of fungal conservation in Ohio. INTRODUCTION Fungi are a large and very diverse group of organisms that play a variety of vital roles in natural and agricultural ecosystems: as decomposers (Lindahl, Taylor and Finlay 2002), mycorrhizal partners of plant species (Van Der Heijden et al.
