New Powdery Mildew on Tomatoes
NEW POWDERY MILDEW ON TOMATOES Heather Scheck, Plant Pathologist Ag Commissioner’s Office, Santa Barbara County POWDERY MILDEW BIOLOGY Powdery mildew fungi are obligate, biotrophic parasites of the phylum Ascomycota of the Kingdom Fungi. The diseases they cause are common, widespread, and easily recognizable Individual species of powdery mildew fungi typically have a narrow host range, but the ones that infect Tomato are exceptionally large. Photo from APS Net POWDERY MILDEW BIOLOGY Unlike most fungal pathogens, powdery mildew fungi tend to grow superficially, or epiphytically, on plant surfaces. During the growing season, hyphae and spores are produced in large colonies that can coalesce Infections can also occur on stems, flowers, or fruit (but not tomato fruit) Our climate allows easy overwintering of inoculum and perfect summer temperatures for epidemics POWDERY MILDEW BIOLOGY Specialized absorption cells, termed haustoria, extend into the plant epidermal cells to obtain nutrition. Powdery mildew fungi can completely cover the exterior of the plant surfaces (leaves, stems, fruit) POWDERY MILDEW BIOLOGY Conidia (asexual spores) are also produced on plant surfaces during the growing season. The conidia develop either singly or in chains on specialized hyphae called conidiophores. Conidiophores arise from the epiphytic hyphae. This is the Anamorph. Courtesy J. Schlesselman POWDERY MILDEW BIOLOGY Some powdery mildew fungi produce sexual spores, known as ascospores, in a sac-like ascus, enclosed in a fruiting body called a chasmothecium (old name cleistothecium). This is the Teleomorph Chasmothecia are generally spherical with no natural opening; asci with ascospores are released when a crack develops in the wall of the fruiting body. -

Friesen*,†,‡,1 *Genomics and Bioinformatics Program and †Department of Plant Pathology, North Dakota State University, Fargo, North Dakota 58102 and ‡Cereal Crops Research Unit, Red River Valley Agricultural Research Center, United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS), Fargo, North Dakota 58102 ORCID ID: 0000-0001-5634-2200 (T.L.F.) ABSTRACT Pyrenophora teres f. teres, the causal agent of net form net blotch (NFNB) of barley, is a KEYWORDS destructive pathogen in barley-growing regions throughout the world. Typical yield losses due to NFNB Pyrenophora range from 10 to 40%; however, complete loss has been observed on highly susceptible barley lines where teres f. teres environmental conditions favor the pathogen. Currently, genomic resources for this economically important genome pathogen are limited to a fragmented draft genome assembly and annotation, with limited RNA support of sequencing the P. teres f. teres isolate 0-1. This research presents an updated 0-1 reference assembly facilitated by RNAseq long-read sequencing and scaffolding with the assistance of genetic linkage maps. Additionally, genome PacBio annotation was mediated by RNAseq analysis using three infection time points and a pure culture sample, barley resulting in 11,541 high-confidence gene models. The 0-1 genome assembly and annotation presented genome report here now contains the majority of the repetitive content of the genome. Analysis of the 0-1 genome revealed classic characteristics of a “two-speed” genome, being compartmentalized into GC-equilibrated and AT-rich compartments. -

Species are documented in detail including line drawings, photomicrographs, and identification keys. On Papaveraceae three species are accepted, specifically Erysiphe macleayae on Chelidonium majus and Macleaya cordata, E. cruciferarum on Eschscholzia californica, and Oidium sp. (an unknown species previously assigned to E. cruciferarum) on Pseudofumaria lutea. Species on Hydrangeaceae are Oidium hortensiae on Hydrangea macrophylla and E. deutziae on Deutzia cf. scabra and Philadelphus cf. coronarius. The fungus on the latter host plant was previously assigned to O. hortensiae. Erysiphe deutziae, E. macleayae, and Oidium hortensiae are introduced species. Key words — conidial germination, morphology, neomycete Introduction In Germany, there are three species of Erysiphales reported on Papaveraceae (Erysiphe cruciferarum, Erysiphe cf. macleayae, Golovinomyces orontii (Castagne) Heluta); and two (Erysiphe deutziae, Oidium hortensiae) on Hydrangeaceae (Braun 1995, Jage et. al. 2010). The following is a revision of anamorphs on certain host plants of Papaveraceae/Hydrangeaceae (Chelidonium, Deutzia, Hydrangea, Macleaya, Meconopsis, Philadelphus and Pseudofumaria) for which the host/pathogen affiliations have been doubtful.

Ascocarp Development in Anthracobia Melaloma
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF HAROLD JULIUS LARSEN, JR. for the MASTER OF ARTS (Name) (Degree) in BOTANY presented on it (Major) (Date) Title: ASCOCA.RP DEVELOPMENT IN ANTHRACOBIA MELALOMA. Abstract approved:Redacted for privacy William C. Denison Cultural and developmental characteristics of a collection of Anthracobia melaloma with a brown hymeniurn and a barred exterior appearance were examined.It grows well in culture on CM and CMMY agar media and has a growth rate of 17 mm in 18 hours.It is heterothallic and produces asexual rnultinucleate arthrospores after incubation at 300C or above for several days in succession.These arthrospores germinate readily after transfer to fresh media. Antheridial hyphae and archicarps are produced by both mating types although the negative mating type isolates producemore abun- dant archicarps.Antheridia are indistinguishable from vegetative hyphae until just prior to plasmogamy when they become swollen. Septal pads arise on the septa separating the cells of the trichogyne and ascogonium subsequent to plasmogamy and persist throughout development. The paraphyses, the ectal and medullary excipulum, and the excipular hairs are all derived from the sheathing hyphae. Ascogenous hyphae and asci are derived from the largest cells of the ascogonium. A haploid chromosome number of four is confirmed for the species. Exposure to fluorescent light was unnecessary for apothecial induction, but did enhance apothecial maturation and the production of hyrnenial carotenoid pigments.Constant exposure to light inhibited -
Evaluation of Certain Mineral Salts and Microelements Against Mango Powdery Mildew Under Egyptian Conditions
Journal of Phytopathology and Pest Management 3(3): 35-42, 2016 pISSN:2356-8577 eISSN: 2356-6507 Journal homepage: http://ppmj.net/ Evaluation of certain mineral salts and microelements against mango powdery mildew under Egyptian conditions Fatma A. Mostafa*, S. A. El Sharkawy Plant Pathology Research Institute, Agricultural Research Center, Giza, Egypt. Abstract During the two successive seasons 2014 and 2015, three mineral salts used as commercial fertilizers (Potassium di -hydrogen orthophosphate, Potassium bicarbonate (85%), Calcium nitrate (17.1%)) and four microelements (Magnesium sulfate, Iron cheated (Fe-EDTA 6%), Zinc cheated (Zn-EDTA 12%), Manganese cheated (Mn-EDTA 12%)) were evaluated against powdery mildew of mango caused by Oidium mangiferea. Data obtained showed that all materials reduced significantly the disease severity percentage of mango powdery mildew disease comparing the control. Compared fungicides; Topsin M 70 (Thiophanate methyl) and Topas 10% (Penconazole) showed the most superior effect against the disease followed by potassium di-hydrogen orthophosphate. Tested microelements were arranged as zinc, iron and manganese, respectively due to their efficiency. Calcium nitrate and magnesium sulfate revealed the less effect. Evaluated microelements showed the higher efficacy than mineral fertilizers during the two experimental seasons except potassium monophosphate. While, two compared fungicides were the most efficiency to control the disease, tested materials reduced significantly the disease severity of mango powdery mildew disease and showed ability to reduce the number of required applications with conventional fungicides. Key words: Mango, powdery mildew, mineral salts, microelements, thiophonate methyl, penconazole. Copyright © 2016 ∗ Corresponding author: Fatma A.

Mycosphere 10(1), 310–489, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/10/1/7 Abstract Leotiomycetes is regarded as the inoperculate class of discomycetes within the phylum Ascomycota. Taxa are mainly characterized by asci with a simple pore blueing in Melzer’s reagent, although some taxa have lost this character. The monophyly of this class has been verified in several recent molecular studies. However, circumscription of the orders, families and generic level delimitation are still unsettled. This paper provides a modified backbone tree for the class Leotiomycetes based on phylogenetic analysis of combined ITS, LSU, SSU, TEF, and RPB2 loci. In the phylogenetic analysis, Leotiomycetes separates into 19 clades, which can be recognized as orders and order-level clades. -

Introduction Molds Are a Natural and Important Part of Our Environment
Introduction Molds are a natural and important part of our environment. They are ubiquitous and are found virtually everywhere. Molds produce tiny spores to reproduce. These spores can be found in both indoor and outdoor air and on indoor and outdoor surfaces. When mold spores land on a damp spot, they may begin growing and digesting whatever they are growing on in order to survive, leading to adverse conditions. In response to increasing public concern, a number of government authorities, including the United States EPA, California Department of Health Services and New York City Department of Health, have developed recommendations and guidelines for assessment and remediation of mold. Websites for these organizations can be found at the end of this report. While it is generally accepted that molds can be allergenic and can lead to adverse health conditions in susceptible people, unfortunately there are no widely accepted or regulated interpretive standards or numerical guidelines for the interpretation of microbial data. The absence of standards often makes interpretation of microbial data difficult and controversial. This report has been designed to provide some basic interpretive information using certain assumptions and facts that have been extracted from a number of peer reviewed texts, such as the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH). In the absence of standards, the user must determine the appropriateness and applicability of this report to any given situation. Identification of the presence of a particular fungus in an indoor environment does not necessarily mean that the building occupants are or are not being exposed to antigenic or toxic agents. -
The Emergence of Cereal Fungal Diseases and the Incidence of Leaf Spot Diseases in Finland
AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD SCIENCE AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD SCIENCE Vol. 20 (2011): 62–73. Vol. 20(2011): 62–73. The emergence of cereal fungal diseases and the incidence of leaf spot diseases in Finland Marja Jalli, Pauliina Laitinen and Satu Latvala MTT Agrifood Research Finland, Plant Production Research, FI-31600 Jokioinen, Finland, email: [email protected] Fungal plant pathogens causing cereal diseases in Finland have been studied by a literature survey, and a field survey of cereal leaf spot diseases conducted in 2009. Fifty-seven cereal fungal diseases have been identified in Finland. The first available references on different cereal fungal pathogens were published in 1868 and the most recent reports are on the emergence of Ramularia collo-cygni and Fusarium langsethiae in 2001. The incidence of cereal leaf spot diseases has increased during the last 40 years. Based on the field survey done in 2009 in Finland, Pyrenophora teres was present in 86%, Cochliobolus sativus in 90% and Rhynchosporium secalis in 52% of the investigated barley fields.Mycosphaerella graminicola was identi- fied for the first time in Finnish spring wheat fields, being present in 6% of the studied fields.Stagonospora nodorum was present in 98% and Pyrenophora tritici-repentis in 94% of spring wheat fields. Oat fields had the fewest fungal diseases. Pyrenophora chaetomioides was present in 63% and Cochliobolus sativus in 25% of the oat fields studied.
