Most knowledge of environmental groups of fungi comes from terrestrial environ- ments, and little is known about the potential for terrestrial fungi to colonize marine environ- ments. We investigated the Delaware River estuary and bay as a model estuarine system to study the fungal community changes occurring along a transect from terrestrially influenced waters and sediments to a higher salinity, truly marine system. DNA-based clone libraries and a culture col- lection built using subseafloor sediment samples revealed that Ascomycota dominated the detected diversity ahead of Basidiomycota and Chytridiomycota. A clear transition in fungal com- munities from terrestrially influenced and low salinity environments to marine environments was visualized. A complementary RNA-based analysis coupled with fluorescence in situ hybridization of sediments indicated that only few fungi were metabolically active in marine sediments. Culti- vation of pelagic and sedimentary fungi allowed clear identification and physiology testing of fun- gal communities of the Delaware Bay.

Kita 9 Nishi 9, Kita-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido, 060-8589, Japan. 1 Cephalosporium gramineum is the causal fungus of Cephalosporium stripe disease of wheat. The disease has been known since the 1930s, mostly from Japan, the United Kingdom and the northern winter wheat belt of North America. However, the population genetic structure of the causal fungus is not clear. We investigated the genetic variation of 40 isolates of C. gramineum, based on variations in internal transcribed spacers (ITS) and intergenic spacers (IGS) of rDNA. Of the isolates, 29 were from Japan and the rest from the United States and Europe. The ITS region was about 600 bp and almost identical among these isolates. In the IGS region (~5 kbp), restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis detected four genotypes among the 40 isolates.

  • Investigation Into the Emerging Soil Borne Disease of Peanut – Neocosmospora Root Rot
    Investigation into the emerging soil borne disease of peanut – Neocosmospora root rot Kylie M. Wenham Bachelor of Applied Science (Hons) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2017 School of Agriculture and Food Science i Abstract Neocosmospora root rot is an emerging soilborne disease of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) crops in Australia caused by Neocosmospora vasinfecta var. africana. The fungal pathogen was first identified in southern Queensland in 2005 following extensive damage to an irrigated peanut crop, and has since been found in all peanut growing areas in Queensland and New South Wales. Typical symptoms of the disease include extensive chlorosis and wilting of the plant starting from the main stem, and a blackened and decayed root system with reddish-orange perithecia of N. vasinfecta present on necrotic tissue of the main tap root and lateral root system as well as the pods. While the disease has been widely observed in agricultural production areas of Australia and is considered one of the most destructive pathogens of peanut, the biology, ecology and aetiology of N. vasinfecta is largely unknown therefore the biotic and abiotic factors that may influence the infectivity of the pathogen and severity of disease epidemics have not been identified. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the biology, ecology and aetiology of N. vasinfecta var. africana and understand how these factors may contribute to the pathogenicity of the fungus. Due to limited knowledge of the biology of N. vasinfecta var. africana, a morphological and molecular approach was taken to determine the taxonomic identification and the morphological characteristics of the pathogen.

  • Sensitivity of Wheat Genotypes to a Toxic Fraction Produced Bycephalosporium
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Mahfuzur Rahman for the degree of Master of Science in Botany and PlantPathology presented on September 19, 2000. Title: Sensitivity of Wheat Genotypes to a Toxic Fraction Produced byCephalosporium ramineum and Correlation with DiseaseSusceptibility Abstract approved: Redacted for Privacy Christopher C. Mundt Thorhas J. Wolpert Cephalosporium stripe, caused by the soil-borne ascomycete Cephalosporium gramineum, is becoming an increasingly important disease of winter wheat(Triticum aestivum) in several areas of the world, especially where stubble mulch is practiced to maintain soil moisture and prevent erosion. As cultural control of the disease is infeasible and no fungicides are registered, the development of resistant cultivarsoffers the best hope for disease control. Selection of resistant genotypes remainsproblematic due to the requirements of evaluating adult plants in variable field environments.The symptoms of cephalosporium stripe suggest the involvement ofpathogen-produced toxins, and the toxin called graminin A has previously been isolated from C. gramineum. The goals of this thesis were to determine if insensitivity of wheat genotypes to a toxic fraction produced by C. gramineum is associatedwith resistance to cephalosporium stripe, and to evaluate the potential use of this toxic fraction to screen wheat genotypes for disease resistance. A method was developed to mass-produce a toxic fraction of C. gramineum by modifying the method of K. Kobayashi (Kobayashi and Ui 1977). Large volumes (9 L) of broth medium were inoculated with C. gramineum and incubated for 35 days. The culture filtrate was then extracted four times with ethyl acetate, which eliminated need for the most time-consuming step of rotary evaporation.

Characterising plant pathogen communities and their environmental drivers at a national scale A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Andreas Makiola Lincoln University, New Zealand 2019 General abstract Plant pathogens play a critical role for global food security, conservation of natural ecosystems and future resilience and sustainability of ecosystem services in general. Thus, it is crucial to understand the large-scale processes that shape plant pathogen communities. The recent drop in DNA sequencing costs offers, for the first time, the opportunity to study multiple plant pathogens simultaneously in their naturally occurring environment effectively at large scale. In this thesis, my aims were (1) to employ next-generation sequencing (NGS) based metabarcoding for the detection and identification of plant pathogens at the ecosystem scale in New Zealand, (2) to characterise plant pathogen communities, and (3) to determine the environmental drivers of these communities. First, I investigated the suitability of NGS for the detection, identification and quantification of plant pathogens using rust fungi as a model system.

  • Control of Fungal Diseases in Winter Wheat
    Control of fungal diseases in winter wheat Evaluation of long-term field research in southern Sweden Lars Wiik Faculty of Landscape Planning, Horticulture and Agricultural Sciences Department of Plant Protection Biology Alnarp Doctoral Thesis Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Alnarp 2009 Acta Universitatis agriculturae Sueciae 2009:97 Cover: Severe attacks of septoria tritici blotch on older leaves with pycnidia in the spring before stem elongation (photo: Peder Waern) ISSN 1652-6880 ISBN 978-91-576-7444-9 © 2009 Lars Wiik, Alnarp Print: SLU Service/Repro, Alnarp 2009 Control of fungal diseases in winter wheat – Evaluation of long- term field research in southern Sweden Abstract The relationships between plant diseases, winter wheat characteristics, air temperature and precipitation, site factors and agricultural practices were investigated. Regression analyses revealed that control of LBDs (Leaf Blotch Diseases, including septoria tritici blotch, stagonospora nodorum blotch and tan spot) explained 74% of the yield increase achieved by fungicide treatment at GS 45- 61, followed by powdery mildew (20%), brown rust (5%) and yellow rust (1%). Yield of both untreated and fungicide-treated plots increased from 6000 to 12000 kg ha-1 over the period 1983-2005. Single eyespot treatment improved mean yield by ~320 kg ha-1 yr-1 during the period 1977-2002, mainly due to occasional years with severe eyespot. A fungicide treatment at GS 45-61 increased mean yield by 10.3% or 810 kg ha-1 yr-1 (9.9% or 660 kg ha-1 yr-1 for 1983-1994 and 10.7% or 970 kg ha-1 yr-1 for 1995-2005) due to increased TGW and grain numbers, especially in high yielding stands.
