Lévesque 3 Key words Abstract The genus Phytopythium (Peronosporales) has been described, but a complete circumscription has not yet been presented. In the present paper we provide molecular-based evidence that members of Pythium COI clade K as described by Lévesque & de Cock (2004) belong to Phytopythium. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian LSU phylogenetic analysis of the nuclear ribosomal DNA (LSU and SSU) and mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase Oomycetes subunit 1 (COI) as well as statistical analyses of pairwise distances strongly support the status of Phytopythium as Oomycota a separate phylogenetic entity. Phytopythium is morphologically intermediate between the genera Phytophthora Peronosporales and Pythium. It is unique in having papillate, internally proliferating sporangia and cylindrical or lobate antheridia. Phytopythium The formal transfer of clade K species to Phytopythium and a comparison with morphologically similar species of Pythiales the genera Pythium and Phytophthora is presented.

(2006) Dimorphism of sporangia in Albugi- naceae (Chromista, Peronosporomycetes). - Sydowia 58 (2): 178 - 190. By using light- and scanning electron microscopy, the dimorphism of sporangia in Albuginaceae is demonstrated in 220 specimens of Albugo, Pustula and Wilsoniana, parasitic on plants belonging to 13 families. The presence of two kinds of sporangia is due to the sporangiogenesis and considered to be present in all representatives of the Albuginaceae. Primary and secondary sporangia are the term recommended to be used for these dissemination organs. Key words: Albugo, morphology, sporangiogenesis, Pustula, Wilsoniana. The Albuginaceae, a group of plant parasitic, fungus-like organisms traditionally restricted to the genus Albugo (Pers.) Roussel (Cystopus Lev.), but to which Pustula Thines and Wilsoniana Thines were recently added (Thines & Spring 2005), differs from other Peronosporomycetes mainly by the sub epidermal location of the unbranched sporangiophores, and basipetal sporangiogenesis resulting in chains of sporangia. A feature only occasionally described is the presence of two kinds of sporangia. Tulasne (1854) was apparently the first to report this character in Wilsoniana portulacae (DC.

  • Physiologic Specialization, Host Resistance and Epidemiology of White Rust and Downy Mildew Disease Complex in Rapeseed and Mustard – the Research Scenario in Haryana
    Physiologic specialization, host resistance and epidemiology of white rust and downy mildew disease complex in rapeseed and mustard – The research scenario in Haryana Kushal Raj1, Dhiraj Singh1 & Leela Wati2 1Department of Plant Breeding, 2Department of Microbiology CCS Haryana Agricultural University Hisar, Haryana 125 004, INDIA E-Mail: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT Rapeseed and mustard group dominates amongst oilseed crops in area and production all over Haryana. More than twenty diseases are known to affect the rapeseed mustard group of crops in Haryana, but diseases like white rust and downy mildew caused by Albugo candida and Peronospora parasitica are of major consequences because of wide spread and destructive nature thereby causing heavy yield losses annually through out Haryana. Although association of these two diseases was reported long back but their importance has been realized only recently. Sources of resistance has been reported but their utility and effectiveness in breeding for disease resistance cultivars is limited due to lack of information on the occurrence and distribution of pathotypes and perfect genotypes screening technique. Different researchers in Haryana conducted studies on the topic to generate more information for improvement of rapeseed and mustard. Under Hisar conditions average temperature of more than 15°C, average RH>65 per cent and intermittent rains on susceptible cultivars proved most conducive for white rust development whereas in case of downy mildew, I5-20°C temperature and Relative humidity above 70 per cent was the best for infection and development of downy mildew. To standardize host differentials by considering the homogenicity and purity of species and varieties is demand of the day.

    Persoonia 22, 2009: 123–128 www.persoonia.org RESEARCH ARTICLE doi:10.3767/003158509X457931 A new species of Albugo parasitic to Arabidopsis thaliana reveals new evolutionary patterns in white blister rusts (Albuginaceae) M. Thines1,3, Y.-J. Choi2, E. Kemen3, S. Ploch1, E.B. Holub4, H.-D. Shin2, J.D.G. Jones3 Key words Abstract The obligate biotrophic lineages of the white blister rusts (Albuginales, Oomycota) are of ancient origin compared to the rather recently evolved downy mildews, and sophisticated mechanisms of biotrophy and a high Albuginales degree of adaptation diversity are to be expected in these organisms. Speciation in the biotrophic Oomycetes is effector gene usually thought to be the consequence of host adaptation or geographic isolation. Here we report the presence of oospore morphology two distinct species of Albugo on the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, Albugo candida and Albugo laibachii, the phylogeny latter being formally described in this manuscript. Both species may occupy the same host within the same environ- plant pathogen ment, but are nevertheless phylogenetically distinct, as inferred from analyses of both mitochondrial and nuclear speciation DNA sequences. Different ways of adapting to their host physiology might constitute an important factor of their different niches. Evidence for this can be gained from the completely different host range of the two pathogens. While Albugo candida is a generalist species, consisting of several physiological varieties, which is able to parasitize a great variety of Brassicaceae, Albugo laibachii has not been found on any host other than Arabidopsis thaliana. Therefore, Albugo laibachii belongs to a group of highly specialised species, like the other known specialist species in Albugo s.s., Albugo koreana, Albugo lepidii and Albugo voglmayrii.

(2007). Morphological and molecular discrimination among Albugo candida materials infecting Capsella bursa-pastoris world-wide. Fungal Diversity 27: 11-34. The genus Albugo with A. candida as the type species causes white blister rust disease in economically important crops. Recently, molecular approaches revealed the high degree of genetic diversity exhibited within A. candida complex. However, before any taxonomic division of the complex at the species level, the correct status of A. candida on Capsella bursa- pastoris, from which it was originally described, should be determined. A worldwide study of white rust pathogens on C. bursa-pastoris was performed on 36 specimens, using morphological analysis and sequence analysis from the cytochrome c oxidase subunit II (COX2) region of mtDNA, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the rDNA, and D1 and D2 regions of the nrDNA. Specimens were obtained from Asia (India, Korea, Palestine), Europe (England, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Latvia, Netherlands, Romania, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland), North and South America (Argentina, Canada, USA), and Oceania (Australia). The molecular data indicated strong support for a species partition separating Korean and other continental specimens.

    ISSN 1330-7142 UDK = 632.25:632.51(497.5) WHITE BLISTER SPECIES (Albuginaceae) ON WEEDS Karolina Vrandečić, Draženka Jurković, Jasenka Ćosić, Jelena Poštić, Zorana Bijelić Original scientific paper Izvorni znanstveni ~lanak SUMMARY The obligate fungi inside the family Albuginaceae are widespread world wide and cause white rust or white blister disease. Mycopopulation of weeds has been researched within the project „The role of weeds in epidemiology of row-crop diseases“. The aim of this research was to identify white blister species occurring on weeds in Eastern Croatia. Weed plants with disease symptoms characteristic for white blister species have been collected since 2001 on location Slavonia and Baranja country. Determination of white blister species was based on morpho- logical characters of pathogen and the host. Wilsoniana bliti was determined on Amaranthus retroflexus and Amaranthus hybridus leaves. Capsella bursa pastoris is a host for Albugo candida. Ambrosia artemisiifolia is a host for Pustula sp. and Cirsium arvense was found to be host for Pustula spinulosa. Wilsoniana portulaceae was determined on Portulaca oleracea. Key-words: white blister, weeds, eastern Croatia INTRODUCTION and many important fungal pathogens of cultivated plants were determined on weeds (Ćosić et al., 2008, The pseudofungi which cause white rust or white Vrandečić et al., 2010) within the project „The role of blister disease are obligate plant parasites. Van Wyk et al. weeds in epidemiology of row-crop diseases“. Since (1999) described about 50 species of the genus Albugo weeds could play an important role in disease epidemi- and some of them are known as crop pathogens. Thines ology of cultivated plants the aim of this research was and Spring (2005) have presented a revision of the genus to identify species from family Albuginaceae occurring Albugo, supported by molecular phylogenetic studies on weeds in Eastern Croatia.

  • Comparative Analysis of Oomycete Genome Evolution Using the Oomycete Gene Order Browser (OGOB)
    GBE Comparative Analysis of Oomycete Genome Evolution Using the Oomycete Gene Order Browser (OGOB) Jamie McGowan1,2,KevinP.Byrne3,andDavidA.Fitzpatrick1,2,* 1Genome Evolution Laboratory, Department of Biology, Maynooth University, Co. Kildare, Ireland 2Human Health Research Institute, Maynooth University, Co. Kildare, Ireland 3School of Medicine, UCD Conway Institute, University College Dublin, Ireland Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/gbe/article/11/1/189/5238079 by guest on 29 September 2021 *Corresponding author: E-mail: david.fi[email protected]. Accepted: December 10, 2018 Abstract The oomycetes are a class of microscopic, filamentous eukaryotes within the stramenopiles–alveolates–rhizaria eukaryotic super- group. They include some of the most destructive pathogens of animals and plants, such as Phytophthora infestans, the causative agent of late potato blight. Despite the threat they pose to worldwide food security and natural ecosystems, there is a lack of tools and databases available to study oomycete genetics and evolution. To this end, we have developed the Oomycete Gene Order Browser (OGOB), a curated database that facilitates comparative genomic and syntenic analyses of oomycete species. OGOB incorporates genomic data for 20 oomycete species including functional annotations and a number of bioinformatics tools. OGOB hosts a robust set of orthologous oomycete genes for evolutionary analyses. Here, we present the structure and function of OGOB as well as a number of comparative genomic analyses we have performed to better understand oomycete genome evolution. We analyze the extent of oomycete gene duplication and identify tandem gene duplication as a driving force of the expansion of secreted oomycete genes. We identify core genes that are present and microsyntenically conserved (termed syntenologs) in oomycete lineages and identify the degree of microsynteny between each pair of the 20 species housed in OGOB.

Results: A recent genome analysis of the oomycete Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis suggests that a reduction in the number of genes encoding secreted pathogenicity proteins, enzymes for assimilation of inorganic nitrogen and sulphur represent a genomic signature for the evolution of obligate biotrophy.

  • Albugo-Imposed Changes to Tryptophan-Derived Antimicrobial
    Prince et al. BMC Biology (2017) 15:20 DOI 10.1186/s12915-017-0360-z RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Albugo-imposed changes to tryptophan- derived antimicrobial metabolite biosynthesis may contribute to suppression of non-host resistance to Phytophthora infestans in Arabidopsis thaliana David C. Prince1,2, Ghanasyam Rallapalli1,3, Deyang Xu4, Henk-jan Schoonbeek5, Volkan Çevik1,6, Shuta Asai1,7, Eric Kemen1,8, Neftaly Cruz-Mireles1, Ariane Kemen1,8, Khaoula Belhaj1, Sebastian Schornack1,9, Sophien Kamoun1, Eric B. Holub10, Barbara A. Halkier4 and Jonathan D. G. Jones1* Abstract Background: Plants are exposed to diverse pathogens and pests, yet most plants are resistant to most plant pathogens. Non-host resistance describes the ability of all members of a plant species to successfully prevent colonization by any given member of a pathogen species. White blister rust caused by Albugo species can overcome non-host resistance and enable secondary infection and reproduction of usually non-virulent pathogens, including the potato late blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans on Arabidopsis thaliana. However, the molecular basis of host defense suppression in this complex plant–microbe interaction is unclear. Here, we investigate specific defense mechanisms in Arabidopsis that are suppressed by Albugo infection. Results: Gene expression profiling revealed that two species of Albugo upregulate genes associated with tryptophan- derived antimicrobial metabolites in Arabidopsis. Albugo laibachii-infected tissue has altered levels of these metabolites, with lower indol-3-yl methylglucosinolate and higher camalexin accumulation than uninfected tissue. We investigated the contribution of these Albugo-imposed phenotypes to suppression of non-host resistance to P. infestans. Absence of tryptophan-derived antimicrobial compounds enables P.
