Dickeya Blackleg Is a More Aggressive Disease Than Blackleg Caused by Pectobacterium Atrosepticum

PEI Potato Day 2017 Dickeya is the name of a group of bacteria. Various Dickeya species cause different plant diseases. Two species of Dickeya cause blackleg in potato. Dickeya blackleg is a more aggressive disease than blackleg caused by Pectobacterium atrosepticum. One of the blackleg-causing Dickeya species now occurs in Maine, and has been spread to other states. Blackleg is a potato disease with characteristic symptoms seed-piece decay black-pigmented soft rot of stems soft rot of tubers Blackleg is caused by several bacteria: . Pectobacterium atrosepticum . Pectobacterium brasiliense . Pectobacterium parmentieri (formerly wasabiae) . Dickeya dianthicola . Dickeya solani ATROSEPTICUM BLACKLEG DICKEYA BLACKLEG Usual cause of blackleg in Recently introduced into the Canada – in the past and United States, probably from currently Europe Favours lower temperatures Favours higher temperatures Symptoms: almost always Symptoms: sometimes clearly evident and visible on restricted to internal pith tissue stems of the stem Causes limited yield loss May cause serious disease loss ATROSEPTICUM DICKEYA Blackleg develops from bacteria that move from the seed tuber into the vascular tissue of the stem. These bacteria grow and multiple and produce soft-rotting Drawing from Potato Health Management. R.C. Rowe, ed. enzymes. APS Press Blackleg Disease Cycle The Seed Potato . They may look healthy and well BUT blackleg bacteria may be present in lenticels or stolon end vascular tissue During the growing season — from bacteria that spread from decaying seed pieces AND During harvesting, bin piling, sorting, etc. — whenever tubers come in contact with contaminated surfaces Clean seed ▪ High generation seed (fewer field generations) ▪ Know your seed source ▪ Good grower practices (your own and seed supplier) ▪ Laboratory tests (if unsure) Sanitation ▪ Bacteria are readily spread on equipment ▪ Blackleg bacteria are sensitive to common disinfectants ▪ Keep equipment clean ▪ Disinfect equipment between lots ▪ Clean up culls Roguing – yes, BUT be careful not to spread blackleg bacteria from infected plant. Survival in soil and water – yes, but for a limited time only (Dickeya probably a little more than P. atrosepticum). Spread by insects – theoretically yes, but not shown to be important. 1. Remain vigilant 2. Maintain good practices: clean seed & sanitation 3. If blackleg increases – get it lab tested (so you know what you are dealing with) .

Inoculation and Spread of Dickeya in Potatoes
INOCULATION AND SPREAD OF DICKEYA IN POTATOES A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Blake William Greiner In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Major Department: Plant Pathology May 2018 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title INOCULATION AND SPREAD OF DICKEYA IN POTATOES By Blake William Greiner The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Gary A. Secor Chair Asunta (Susie) Thompson Andrew Robinson Luis del Rio Mendoza Approved: January 22, 2019 Jack Rasmussen Date Department Chair ABSTRACT Field experiments were conducted in two different growing environments to evaluate the spread and movement of Dickeya dadantii. A procedure to inoculate seed potatoes with Dickeya dadantii was developed to use during this study. Spread of Dickeya dadantii from inoculated potato seed to healthy potato seed during the handling, cutting and planting procedures was not detected at either location. Spread of Dickeya dadantii from inoculated seed to surrounding progeny tubers in the field was documented in both locations. In Florida, 33% of progeny tubers tested positive for Dickeya using PCR, and in North Dakota, 13% of the progeny tubers tested positive. Stunting was observed in plants grown from Dickeya dadantii inoculated seed tubers in North Dakota, but not in Florida. These results indicate that Dickeya dadantii may spread during the seed handling and cutting processes and can spread in the field from infected seed tubers to progeny tubers.

Current diagnostic methods are time-consuming and expensive. Work is being carried out to reduce the time taken to make a diagnosis and to develop a single, specific test for ‘D. solani’. A real-time PCR assay, based on the fusA gene has been developed and evaluated against a panel of 110 representative strains from the genera Dickeya and Pectobacterium, alongside two other real-time PCR assays, developed independently and jointly by JHI and Fera. All assays performed equally well and were shown to positively identify ‘D. solani’ with only a small number of false positives and only one false negative. Further evaluation of these assays is underway to ensure they are suitable for routine use.

Dickeya and Pectobacterium Species: Consistent Threats to Potato Production in Europe
Dickeya and Pectobacterium species: consistent threats to potato production in Europe Yeshitila Degefu, MTT Agrifood Research Finland, Biotechnology and Food Research, Agrobiotechnology. Paavo Havaksen tie 3, P.O.Box 413, 90014, University of Oulu, Finland. Abstract This brief review highlights the current status of the bacterial species of Dickeya and Pectobacterium and the blackleg and soft rot complex in potato. The changes in the pathogen and disease profile over the past years, in Finland and the rest of Europe are discussed. Evaluation of the commonly practiced control measures is briefly presented and significance of the High Grade (HG) status from the view point of blackleg management strategy and sustainable potato production and the project initiative of MTT Oulu towards that goal is cited as one example. The scope of this review is limited to selected topics of practical importance and presented in a way understandable to readers who are not necessarily experts in Dickeya and Pectobacterium but are aware of the problem of blackleg and soft rot. These include potato producers, disease inspection agents and agricultural advisers. Details of the biology of the pathogens are not included .However, readers who are interested in such advances of the pathogens are referred to the most up to date reviews cited in this article. Introduction The International Potato Center (CIP) ranks potato to be the third most important food crop in the world after rice and wheat in terms of human consumption. More than a billion people worldwide eat potato, and global total production exceeds 300 million metric tons (http://cipotato.org/potato/facts).

Identification of the Causal Agent of Bacterial Soft Rot of Potato and Its Management in Bangladesh Dissertation Presented in Pa
Identification of the Causal Agent of Bacterial Soft Rot of Potato and its Management in Bangladesh Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ferdous-E-Elahi, M.S. Graduate Program in Plant Pathology The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee Sally A. Miller, Adviser Pierce A. Paul M. Soledad Benitez Ponce Melanie L. Lewis Ivey Copyright by Ferdous-E-Elahi 2018 Abstract Although commercial potato production started in 1920 in Bangladesh, potatoes are severely affected by diseases, resulting in poor yields. The demand for potato is growing day by day and many approaches are being implemented to increase yields. From December 2014 to January 2015, a total of 15 bacterial isolates were recovered from potato tubers with symptoms of soft rot collected in ten major potato- growing areas of Bangladesh. Based on biochemical and physiological assays, Pectobacterium carotovorum ssp. were identified as the causal agents of soft rot in potato tubers. The pathogens were further characterized with molecular methods including subspecies-specific PCR, 16s rRNA gene sequencing and multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA). Of the 15 isolates causing tuber soft rot, five of the isolates also caused blackleg symptoms in potato seedlings. PCR utilizing primer pair EXPCCF and EXPCCR resulted in the amplification of 550-bp DNA sequences of P. carotovorum ssp. carotovorum from the 15 soft rot isolates. 16s rRNA gene sequencing confirmed the identity of Pectobacterium carotovorum ssp. carotovorum from potato tubers. Phylogenetic analysis of concatenated gene sequences from six housekeeping genes (acnA, gapA, icdA, mdh, pgi and proA) from in MLSA revealed two distinct clades among the Bangladeshi strains.

We studied the patterns and causes of the establishment of the pathogen Dickeya solani that recently invaded potato agrosystems in Europe by assessing its invasion dynamics and its competitive advantages or disadvantages against the closely-related resident D.dianthicola species. Epidemiological records over one decade in France revealed the establishment of D.solani and the maintenance of the resident D.dianthicola in potato fields exhibiting blackleg symptoms. Using experimentations, we showed that D.dianthicola was more aggressive than D.solani on aerial parts, while D.solani was more aggressive on tubers. In co-infection assays, D.dianthicola outcompeted D.solani in aerial parts, while D.solani and D.dianthicola co-existed in tubers. A comparison of 76 D.solani genomes (56 of which having been sequenced here) revealed balanced frequencies of two uncharacterized alleles, VfmBPro and VfmBSer, at the vfmB virulence gene. Experimental inoculations showed that the VfmBSer population was more aggressive on tubers, while VfmBPro and VfmBSer populations exhibited a similar aggressiveness on stems.
