EVALUACION DE RIESGO DE PLAGAS Estudio Técnico Importación De Arroz En Granza (Oryza Sativa), De Brasil Servicio Fitosanitario del Estado Análisis de Riesgo de Plagas EVALUACION DE RIESGO DE PLAGAS Estudio Técnico Importación de arroz en granza (Oryza sativa), de Brasil Este estudio fue realizado para determinar el riesgo cuarentenario para la importación de arroz granza (Oryza sativa ), originario de Brasil. Esta evaluación del riesgo de plagas está acorde con lo determinado en “FAO. 2002. Análisis de Riesgo de Plagas para Plagas Cuarentenarias. Normas Internacionales para Medidas Fitosanitarias. Púb. Nª 11. FAO. Roma”, por lo cual se cumple con la armonización dictada por el Acuerdo Sobre Medidas Sanitarias y Fitosanitarias de la OMC. La evaluación se inicia por solicitud de importación de arroz granza (Oryza sativa), de Brasil Tanto en el ámbito nacional como internacional el arroz es uno de los cultivos de mayor importancia por Io que éste cereal representa en la alimentación de la población mundial. En nuestro país el consumo per cápita ha experimentado un incremento significativo, aumentando de 46 kilogramos que se consumían a inicios de los años noventa a 53 kilogramos que actualmente se consumen y este podría sufrir aumentos. En los últimos años Costa Rica ha importado volúmenes importantes de arroz en granza debido a que la producción nacional satisface únicamente entre un 50% y 60% del consumo, lo que obliga a realizar grandes importaciones para llenar el faltante de este producto. La evaluación se inicia por solicitud de importación de arroz granza (Oryza sativa), de Brasil. Se recibe información oficial técnica solicitada a la ONPF de Brasil. (DARP. 2012). Cuadro 1.

We present here three genome sequences of F. avenaceum, one isolated from barley in Finland and two from spring and winter wheat in Canada. The sizes of the three genomes range from 41.6–43.1 MB, with 13217–13445 predicted protein-coding genes. Whole-genome analysis showed that the three genomes are highly syntenic, and share.95% gene orthologs.

  • The Phylogeny of Plant and Animal Pathogens in the Ascomycota
    Physiological and Molecular Plant Pathology (2001) 59, 165±187 doi:10.1006/pmpp.2001.0355, available online at http://www.idealibrary.com on MINI-REVIEW The phylogeny of plant and animal pathogens in the Ascomycota MARY L. BERBEE* Department of Botany, University of British Columbia, 6270 University Blvd, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z4, Canada (Accepted for publication August 2001) What makes a fungus pathogenic? In this review, phylogenetic inference is used to speculate on the evolution of plant and animal pathogens in the fungal Phylum Ascomycota. A phylogeny is presented using 297 18S ribosomal DNA sequences from GenBank and it is shown that most known plant pathogens are concentrated in four classes in the Ascomycota. Animal pathogens are also concentrated, but in two ascomycete classes that contain few, if any, plant pathogens. Rather than appearing as a constant character of a class, the ability to cause disease in plants and animals was gained and lost repeatedly. The genes that code for some traits involved in pathogenicity or virulence have been cloned and characterized, and so the evolutionary relationships of a few of the genes for enzymes and toxins known to play roles in diseases were explored. In general, these genes are too narrowly distributed and too recent in origin to explain the broad patterns of origin of pathogens. Co-evolution could potentially be part of an explanation for phylogenetic patterns of pathogenesis. Robust phylogenies not only of the fungi, but also of host plants and animals are becoming available, allowing for critical analysis of the nature of co-evolutionary warfare. Host animals, particularly human hosts have had little obvious eect on fungal evolution and most cases of fungal disease in humans appear to represent an evolutionary dead end for the fungus.

Box 391, Hungary; [email protected] Received: 31 December 2015 / Accepted: 24 April 2016 © 2016 Wageningen Academic Publishers OPEN ACCESS REVIEW ARTICLE Abstract From economic and environmental points of view, enhancing resistance to Fusarium head blight (FHB) in wheat is regarded as the best option to reduce fungal colonisation and the concomitant mycotoxin contamination. This review focuses on the effect of FHB resistance on deoxynivalenol (DON) and the masked metabolite deoxynivalenol- 3-glucoside (DON-3-glucoside) in wheat. Based on published information complemented with our own results we draw the following conclusions: (1) All investigated wheat cultivars can convert DON to DON-3-glucoside. Hence, detoxification of DON to DON-3-glucoside is not a new trait introduced by recent resistance breeding against FHB. (2) The amount of DON-3-glucoside relative to DON contamination can be substantial (up to 35%) and is among other things dependent on genetic and environmental factors.

Field peas are vulnerable to many diseases of which, soil borne diseases including wilt and root rot are of major economic importance and can cause significant reduction in yield. There is a dearth of satisfactory methods for control of root rot and no varieties with complete resistance to Fusarium root rot are currently available. Root rot disease was found to be prevalent in all the major pea growing counties of North Dakota surveyed in 2004, 2005, 2010 and 2011. Fusarium species were the most frequently isolated fungal species from the infected pea roots of which, F. oxysporum and F. avenaceum were the most common. 21 Field pea varieties were screened for resistance against F.

    Importation of Fresh Fruit of Avocado, Persea americana Miller var. ‘Hass’, into the Continental United States from Colombia A Pathway-Initiated Risk Assessment October 31, 2016 Version 4 Agency Contact: Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory Center for Plant Health Science and Technology United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Plant Protection and Quarantine 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27606 Pest Risk Assessment for Hass Avocado from Colombia Executive Summary The Republic of Colombia requested approval for imports into the continental United States of fresh avocado fruit, Persea americana Mill. var. ‘Hass’, without a peduncle. Because this commodity has not been imported from Colombia before, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) conducted a pathway-initiated risk assessment to determine the risks associated with importing these ‘Hass’ avocados. We developed a list of pests known to occur in Colombia and associated with avocado based on the scientific literature, port-of-entry pest interception data, and information provided by the Colombian Ministry for Agriculture and Rural Development, and the Colombian Agricultural Institute (ICA). Commercial ‘Hass’ avocado is a conditional non-host for the fruit flies, Anastrepha fraterculus, A. striata, and Ceratitis spp. Thus, we did not list these organisms in the assessment. We determined that three quarantine arthropod pests were likely to follow the pathway, and qualitatively analyzed them to determine the unmitigated risk posed to the United States. Pest Taxonomy Pest Risk Potential Heilipus lauri Boheman Coleoptera: Curculionidae High Heilipus trifasciatus (Fabricius) Coleoptera: Curculionidae High Stenoma catenifer Walsingham Lepidoptera: Elaschistidae High All pests were rated High and for pests with High pest risk potential, mitigations beyond port-of- entry inspection are recommended.

Guadet et al. (1989) clearly showed this to be true for Fusarium. These authors confirmed what was already known from classical work: that while Fusarium is restricted to the Hypocreales, it is polyphyletic because species of the anamorph genus are anamorphs of different teleomorph genera of that order (see review in O’Donnell, 1996). Because the type species of Fusarium, F. sambucinum Fuckel, is the anamorph of Gibberella pulicaris (Fr.) Sacc., Fusarium s. str. is the anamorphic or mitotic state of Gibberella. Furthermore, DNA sequence analyses have shown that asexual species such as F. oxysporum are actually asexual Gibberella species (Guadet et al., 1989; O’Donnell et al., 1998).

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.

Acta Mycol. 48 (1): 41–49, 2013. Timothy (Phleum pratense L.) is an important agricultural grass in Europe and North America, but there is little research into the occurrence and abundance of fungal endophyte species associated with this grass. The aim of this study was to identify fungal endophytes living within P. pratense and to determine if additional moisture applied during the growing season increases the diversity of endophytic fungi. We studied 58 isolates obtained from surface- sterilised blades of 60 P. pratense plants collected from Rõka Free Air Humidity Manipulation experimental plots (FAHM), Estonia. Morphological and molecular methods were used for isolate identification. As a result, 45 strains from 10 different taxa were identified, all belonging to Ascomycota. Five species were found to be new to P. pratense. Key words: agricultural grasses, endophytes, isolate identification, ITS, AHMF INTRODUCTION Plants and fungi commonly have a mutualistic relationship and, in the case of endo- phytes, they reside inside plant tissue, mostly without causing disease (Carroll 1988; Clay, Schardl 2002). Sometimes impact from the environment can make these fungi parasitic or pathogenic to host plants (Schardl et al.

Head blight and crown rot disease of cereals caused by these species are responsible for large economic losses due to reduction in seed quality and contamination of grain with their mycotoxins. Although morphological and biochemical tests are still fundamental there is an increasing more towards molecular diagnostics of these fungi. This paper reviews to PCR identification of Hypocreanlean fungi isolated from agricultural soil from Eskisehir City. Five Hypocreanlean fungi belong to 4 different genera as Bionectria, Fusarium, Gibberella and Nectria were isolated from 56 soil samples. DNA of these strains were isolated by glass beads and vortexing extraction method and used for PCR amplification with universal fungal specific primers. The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of fungal ribosomal DNA (rDNA) were sequenced by CEQ 8000 Genetic Analysis System. The ITS-5.8S sequences obtained in this study were compared with those deposited in the GenBank Database. Phylogenetic position of investigated closely related Hypocreanlean fungi was determined.

Many species of Fusarium are well-suited for atmospheric dispersal, yet little is known about their aerobiology. Previous research has shown that large-scale features known as atmospheric transport barriers (Lagrangian coherent structures) guide the transport and mixing of atmospheric populations of Fusarium. The overall goal of this work is to expand our knowledge on the movement and structure of atmospheric populations of Fusarium. The first objective was to monitor changes in colony forming units (CFUs) in atmospheric populations of Fusarium over small time intervals (10 min to several hours). We hypothesized that consecutive collections of Fusarium with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) demonstrate small variations in colony counts. To test this hypothesis, sampling devices on UAVs were separated into two groups, four inner sampling devices opened during the first 10 minutes and four outer sampling devices opened during the second 10 minutes. Results indicated that (1) consecutive collections of Fusarium at 100 m demonstrated small variations in counts and (2) the similarity between collections decreased as the time between sampling intervals increased.
