    Podsumowanie Analizy Zagrożenia Agrofagiem (Ekspres PRA) dla Tilletia indica Obszar PRA: Rzeczpospolita Polska Opis obszaru zagrożenia: Obszar całego kraju Główne wnioski Prawdopodobieństwo wniknięcia T. indica na teren PRA jest ściśle związane z importem zakażonego ziarna. Istnieje ryzyko zadomowienia się patogenu na obszarze PRA i wywoływania szkód w produkcji rolnej. W przypadku sprowadzania z miejsc, gdzie występuje choroba konieczne jest prowadzenie działań fitosanitarnych jak kontrola materiału nasiennego lub ziarna przeznaczonego na inne cele. Wskazane jest także zaniechanie importu w przypadku epidemii na nowym terenie lub z rejonów o silnym natężeniu infekcji. Sprowadzanie ziarna produkowanego poza obszarem występowania T. indica nie wymaga podejmowania specjalnych zabiegów fitosanitarnych. Wszelkie sygnały o obecności agrofaga powinny zostać poddane wnikliwej analizie, a zakażone rośliny lub materiał zniszczone. Ze względu na duże zdolności teliospor do przetrwania w niekorzystnych warunkach zwalczanie chemiczne lub płodozmian mogą okazać się nieskuteczne. Ryzyko fitosanitarne dla zagrożonego obszaru (indywidualna ranga prawdopodobieństwa wejścia, Wysokie Średnie X Niskie zadomowienia, rozprzestrzenienia oraz wpływu w tekście dokumentu) Poziom niepewności oceny: (uzasadnienie rangi w punkcie 18.

A. SINGH, M. D. WHTTEHEAD and M. S. PAVGI Faculty of Agriculture, Banaras Hindu University, India. Georgia State University, Atlanta, Georgia, U. S. A. Summary. Morphological, cultural and cytological studies on the smut fungus inciting kernel bunt of rice (Oryza sativa L.) indicate that it should be correctly retained in the genus Neovossia as Neovossia horrida (TAKAHASHI) PADWICK & AZMATUXLAH KHAN. In 1879 KÖRNICKE described the genus Neovossia as having sori generally in ovaries, forming a somewhat dusty spore mass; spores simple, produced singly or in the swollen and special fertile threads (sterigmata of MAGNUS), which permanently invest the spores and taper into elongated hyaline appendages of large size; germination by a short promycelium producing numerous terminall}' clustered linear sporidia, which germinate without conjugation and in nutrient solutions give rise to a mycelium producing secondary sporidia of 2 kinds (ZUNDEL 1953). Neovossia horrida (TAKAHASHI) PADWICK & KHAN, the incitant of kernel bunt of rice, was first described by TAKAHASHI (1896) from Japan as Tilletia horrida TAKAHASHI and independently by ANDERSON (1899) from the United States as Tilletia corona SCIB. It was later transferred to the genus Neovossia KÖRNICKE as N. horrida (TAK.) PADWICK & KHAN (1944). TULLIS & JOHNSON (1952) synonimized it to N.

    Wildlife Sites Guidance Wales A Guide to Develop Local Wildlife Systems in Wales Wildlife Sites Guidance Wales A Guide to Develop Local Wildlife Systems in Wales Foreword The Welsh Assembly Government’s Environment Strategy for Wales, published in May 2006, pays tribute to the intrinsic value of biodiversity – ‘the variety of life on earth’. The Strategy acknowledges the role biodiversity plays, not only in many natural processes, but also in the direct and indirect economic, social, aesthetic, cultural and spiritual benefits that we derive from it. The Strategy also acknowledges that pressures brought about by our own actions and by other factors, such as climate change, have resulted in damage to the biodiversity of Wales and calls for a halt to this loss and for the implementation of measures to bring about a recovery. Local Wildlife Sites provide essential support between and around our internationally and nationally designated nature sites and thus aid our efforts to build a more resilient network for nature in Wales. The Wildlife Sites Guidance derives from the shared knowledge and experience of people and organisations throughout Wales and beyond and provides a common point of reference for the most effective selection of Local Wildlife Sites. I am grateful to the Wales Biodiversity Partnership for developing the Wildlife Sites Guidance. The contribution and co-operation of organisations and individuals across Wales are vital to achieving our biodiversity targets. I hope that you will find the Wildlife Sites Guidance a useful tool in the battle against biodiversity loss and that you will ensure that it is used to its full potential in order to derive maximum benefit for the vitally important and valuable nature in Wales.

Abstract: Tilletia controversa J. G. Kühn is a causal organism of dwarf bunt in wheat. Understanding the interaction of wheat and T. controversa is of practical and scientific importance for disease control. In this study, the relative expression of TaLHY and TaPR-4 and TaPR-5 genes was higher in a resistant (Yinong 18) and moderately resistant (Pin 9928) cultivars rather than susceptible (Dongxuan 3) cultivar at 72 h post inoculation (hpi) with T. controversa. Similarly, the expression of defensin, TaPR-2 and TaPR-10 genes was observed higher in resistant and moderately resistant cultivars after exogenous application of phytohormones, including methyl jasmonate, salicylic acid, and abscisic acid. Laser confocal microscopy was used to track the fungal hyphae in the roots, leaves, and tapetum cells, which of susceptible cultivar were infected harshly by T. controversa than moderately resistant and resistant cultivars.
