  • Evolution of Isoprenyl Diphosphate Synthase-Like Terpene
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Evolution of isoprenyl diphosphate synthase‑like terpene synthases in fungi Guo Wei1, Franziska Eberl2, Xinlu Chen1, Chi Zhang1, Sybille B. Unsicker2, Tobias G. Köllner2, Jonathan Gershenzon2 & Feng Chen1* Terpene synthases (TPSs) and trans‑isoprenyl diphosphate synthases (IDSs) are among the core enzymes for creating the enormous diversity of terpenoids. Despite having no sequence homology, TPSs and IDSs share a conserved “α terpenoid synthase fold” and a trinuclear metal cluster for catalysis, implying a common ancestry with TPSs hypothesized to evolve from IDSs anciently. Here we report on the identifcation and functional characterization of novel IDS-like TPSs (ILTPSs) in fungi that evolved from IDS relatively recently, indicating recurrent evolution of TPSs from IDSs. Through large-scale bioinformatic analyses of fungal IDSs, putative ILTPSs that belong to the geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase (GGDPS) family of IDSs were identifed in three species of Melampsora. Among the GGDPS family of the two Melampsora species experimentally characterized, one enzyme was verifed to be bona fde GGDPS and all others were demonstrated to function as TPSs. Melampsora ILTPSs displayed kinetic parameters similar to those of classic TPSs. Key residues underlying the determination of GGDPS versus ILTPS activity and functional divergence of ILTPSs were identifed. Phylogenetic analysis implies a recent origination of these ILTPSs from a GGDPS progenitor in fungi, after the split of Melampsora from other genera within the class of Pucciniomycetes. For the poplar leaf rust fungus Melampsora larici-populina, the transcripts of its ILTPS genes were detected in infected poplar leaves, suggesting possible involvement of these recently evolved ILTPS genes in the infection process.

Fungi have developed defense mechanisms against TE invasion such as RIP (Repeat-Induced Point mutation), MIP (Methylation Induced Premeiotically) and Quelling (RNA interference). RIP inactivates repeated sequences by promoting Cytosine to Thymine mutations, whereas MIP only methylates TEs at C residues.

    Hardwood Diseases 27. Poplar Leaf Rusts Michael E. Ostry and Jennifer Juzwik Hosts All Populus species are potential hosts of poplar leaf rust fungi, Melamp­ sora species. Distinguishing different leaf rust species is often problematic. Com­ plexity in leaf rust situations is related to the extensive planting of many poplar species and interspecific hybrids, natural or human­aided movement of Melampsora species into new geographic regions, and the occurrence of Melampsora races (formae speciales). Furthermore, mixed race infections on single leaves and the evolution of natural hybrids of rust fungi contribute to this complexity.

Many species of Melampsora can cause poplar leaf rust in China, and their distributions and host specificities are not entirely known. This study was prompted by the new susceptibility of a previously resistant cultivar, cv. ‘Zhonghua hongye’ of Populus deltoides (section Aigeiros), as well as by the need to know more about the broader context of poplar leaf rust in China. Rust surveys from 2015 through 2018 in Shaanxi, Sichuan, Gansu, Henan, Shanxi, Qinghai, Beijing, and Inner Mongolia revealed some samples with urediniospores with the echinulation pattern of M. medusae. The morphological characteristics of urediniospores and teliospores from poplar species of the region were further examined with light and scanning electron microscopy.

  • A New Species of Melampsora Rust on Salix Elbursensis from Iran
    For. Path. doi: 10.1111/j.1439-0329.2010.00699.x Ó 2010 Blackwell Verlag GmbH A new species of Melampsora rust on Salix elbursensis from Iran By S. M. Damadi1,5, M. H. Pei2, J. A. Smith3 and M. Abbasi4 1Department of Plant Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Maragheh, Maragheh, Iran; 2Rothamsted Research, Harpenden, Hertfordshire, UK; 3School of Forest Resources and Conservation, University of Florida, Gainesville, Florida, USA; 4Plant Pests & Diseases Research Institute, Tehran, Iran; 5E-mail: [email protected] (for correspondence) Summary A rust fungus was found causing stem cankers on 1- to 5-year-old stems of Salix elbursensis in the north west of Iran. The rust also forms uredinia on leaves and flowers of the host willow. Light and scanning electron microscopy revealed that the new rust is morphologically distinct from several Melampsora species occurring on the willows taxonomically close to S. elbursensis, but indistinguish- able from Melampsora larici-epitea. Examination of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the ribosomal DNA suggested that the rust fungus is phylogenetically close to Melampsora allii-populina and Melampsora pruinosae on Populus spp. Based on both the morphological characteristics and the ITS sequence data, the rust is described as a new species – Melampsora iranica sp. nov. 1 Introduction The genus Melampsora was established by Castagne in 1843 based on the rust on Euphorbia, Melampsora euphorbiae (Schub.) Cast. (Castagne 1843). The main character- istic of the genus Melampsora is the formation of ÔnakedÕ uredinia and crust-like telia that comprise sessile, laterally adherent single-celled teliospores.

It is not new for Serbia, but the records come from a newly reported host, namely Salix serpyllifolia. The pathogen’s distribution presumably is UDC: 528.28:582.681.81(234.42) wider than initially believed, and further surveys need to be conducted.

  • Species Composition and Distribution of Rust Fungi in Zailisky Alatau (Kazakhstan)
    BIO Web of Conferences 24, 00069 (2020) https://doi.org/10.1051/bioconf/20202400069 International Conferences “Plant Diversity: Status, Trends, Conservation Concept” 2020 Species composition and distribution of rust fungi in Zailisky Alatau (Kazakhstan) Yelena Rakhimova1*, Gulnaz Sypabekkyzy1, 2, Lyazzat Kyzmetova1, and Assem Assylbek1 1Institute of Botany and Phytointroduction, 050040 Almaty, Kazakhstan 2al-Farabi Kazakh National University, 050040 Almaty, Kazakhstan Abstract. Mycobiota of the Zailisky Alatau includes 176 species of rust fungi, the Microbotryomycetes class has 5 species, the Pucciniomycetes class is represented with 171 species. The largest number of species is characteristic of the genera Puccinia (98 species) and Uromyces (24 species). Others genera are represented with 1–13 species. The greatest number of species of rust fungi is noted for altitudes of 1700-1900 and 1900-2100 m above sea level, what correlates with the vegetation zone of dark coniferous forests and meadows. Great aridity does not allow fungi to develop intensively in the lower foothills and steppe zone, and low temperatures and intense solar insolation inhibit the development of rust fungi in the alpine and subalpine zones. 337 plant species from 165 genera are registered as host plants. The largest number of rust fungi species is noted in the Small and Big Almaty gorges (73 and 57 species, respectively), in the Talgar and Turgen gorges (57 and 63 species, respectively). The gorges of Karakastek, Ush-Konyr, Uzyn-Kargaly, Chemolgan, Small Kemin and Oi-Karagai are characterized by an insignificant diversity of rust fungi (from 3 to 8 species), which is associated with lower humidity of these gorges.
