Dr Marcel Delaforge Membre M Dr Pierre Galtier Membre TITRE : Bases moléculaires de la voie de biosynthèse de la patuline, mycotoxine produite par Byssochlamys nivea et Penicillium griseofulvum RESUME : La patuline constitue un contaminant chimique toxique fréquemment rencontré dans les produits issus de la transformation des fruits, notamment des pommes. Cette toxine essentiellement produite par Penicillium expansum et Byssochlamys nivea fait l’objet d’une réglementation européenne récente (N°1425/2003). Contrairement à certaines mycotoxines règlementées telles que les aflatoxines, les trichothécènes ou les fumonisines, la génétique de la voie de biosynthèse de la patuline est fort mal connue, bien que cette voie ait été relativement bien caractérisée du point de vue chimique. Deux espèces toxinogènes, Byssochlamys nivea et Penicillium griseofulvum ont été étudiées en tant qu’espèces modèles. Trois gènes impliqués dans la synthèse de la patuline ont été isolés de B. nivea, et entièrement séquencés lors de ce travail.

  • Talaromyces Systylus, a New Synnematous Species from Argentinean Semi-Arid Soil

Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, Argentina. 2 Instituto de Microbiología y Zoología Agrícola, Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria. N. Repetto y De los Reseros, CC25 (1712), Castelar, Buenos Aires, Argentina. With 18 figures and 2 tables Abstract: The discovery of an interesting new synnematous Talaromyces species from Argentinean semi-arid soil has enlarged the number of synnema-producing species. Talaromyces systylus sp. nov. is characterized by the production of indeterminate synnemata on Malt Extract Agar and coarsely rough- walled, globose conidia and conidial chains arranged in columns. The optimal growing temperature was 30°C. Talaromyces systylus was compared with other related species phylogenetically based on ITS, BenA and CaM markers. Key words: Ascomycetes, Eurotiales, Penicillium subgenus Biverticillium, synnemata. Introduction In his work of 1979 Pitt accepted the subgenus Biverticillium Dierckx apud Biourge to accommodate species that present penicilli with metulae of approximately equal length to phialides in symmetrical adpressed or divergent verticils, phialides typically acerose or ampulliform-acerose in few species, and conidia ellipsoidal to fusiform or spheroidal in species with ampulliform-acerose phialides. This author transferred to Biverticillium several taxa previously placed by Raper & Thom (1949) in the section Biverticillata- Symmetrica Thom.

  • Taxonomic Revision of Aspergillus Section Clavati Based on Molecular, Morphological and Physiological Data
    available online at www.studiesinmycology.org STUDIE S IN MYCOLOGY 59: 89–106. 2007. doi:10.3114/sim.2007.59.11 Taxonomic revision of Aspergillus section Clavati based on molecular, morphological and physiological data J. Varga1,3, M. Due2, J.C. Frisvad2 and R.A. Samson1 1CBS Fungal Biodiversity Centre, Uppsalalaan 8, NL-3584 CT Utrecht, The Netherlands; 2BioCentrum-DTU, Building 221, Technical University of Denmark, DK-2800 Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark; 3Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Science and Informatics, University of Szeged, H-6701 Szeged, P.O. Box 533, Hungary *Correspondence: János Varga, [email protected] Abstract: Aspergillus section Clavati has been revised using morphology, secondary metabolites, physiological characters and DNA sequences. Phylogenetic analysis of β-tubulin, ITS and calmodulin sequence data indicated that Aspergillus section Clavati includes 6 species, A. clavatus (synonyms: A. apicalis, A. pallidus), A. giganteus, A. rhizopodus, A. longivesica, Neocarpenteles acanthosporus and A. clavatonanicus. Neocarpenteles acanthosporus is the only known teleomorph of this section. The sister genera to Neocarpenteles are Neosartorya and Dichotomomyces based on sequence data. Species in Neosartorya and Neocarpenteles have anamorphs with green conidia and share the production of tryptoquivalins, while Dichotomomyces was found to be able to produce gliotoxin, which is also produced by some Neosartorya species, and tryptoquivalines and tryptoquivalones produced by members of both section Clavati and Fumigati. All species in section Clavati are alkalitolerant and acidotolerant and they all have clavate conidial heads. Many species are coprophilic and produce the effective antibiotic patulin. Members of section Clavati also produce antafumicin, tryptoquivalines, cytochalasins, sarcins, dehydrocarolic acid and kotanins (orlandin, desmethylkotanin and kotanin) in species specific combinations.

  • Classification of Plant Diseases
    Fundamentals of Plant Pathology Department of Plant Pathology, JNKVV, Jabalpur Importance of Plant Disease, Scope and Objective of Plant Pathology Shraddha Karcho [email protected] JNKVV College of Agriculture ,Tikamgarh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Plant Pathology is a branch of agricultural science that deals with the study of fungi, bacteria, viruses, nematodes, and other microbes that cause diseases of plants. Plants diseases and disorders make plant to suffer, either kill or reduce their ability to survive/ reproduce. Any abnormal condition that alters the appearance or function of a plant is called plant disease. The term ‘Pathology’ is derived from two Greek words ‘pathos’ and ‘logos’, ‘Pathos’ means suffering and ‘logos’ Means to study/ knowledge. Therefore Pathology means “study of suffering”. Thus the Plant Pathology or Phytopathology (Gr. Phyton=plant) is the branch of biology that deals with the study of suffering plants. It is both science of learning and understanding the nature of disease and art of diagnosing and controlling the disease. Importance of Plant Diseases The study of plant diseases is important as they cause loss to the plant as well as plant produce. The various types of losses occur in the field, in storage or any time between sowing and consumption of produce. The diseases are responsible for direct monitory loss and material loss. Plant diseases still inflect suffering on untold millions of people worldwide causing an estimated annual yield loss of 14% globally with an estimated economic loss of 220 billion U. S. dollars. Fossil evidence indicates that plants were affected by different diseases 250 million year ago. The Plant disease has been associated with many important events in the history of mankind of the earth.

  • Microbiome-Driven Identification of Microbial Indicators for Postharvest
    Kusstatscher et al. Microbiome (2019) 7:112 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40168-019-0728-0 RESEARCH Open Access Microbiome-driven identification of microbial indicators for postharvest diseases of sugar beets Peter Kusstatscher1,2, Christin Zachow1, Karsten Harms3, Johann Maier3, Herbert Eigner4, Gabriele Berg2 and Tomislav Cernava2,5* Abstract Background: Sugar loss due to storage rot has a substantial economic impact on the sugar industry. The gradual spread of saprophytic fungi such as Fusarium and Penicillium spp. during storage in beet clamps is an ongoing challenge for postharvest processing. Early detection of shifts in microbial communities in beet clamps is a promising approach for the initiation of targeted countermeasures during developing storage rot. In a combined approach, high-throughput sequencing of bacterial and fungal genetic markers was complemented with cultivation-dependent methods and provided detailed insights into microbial communities colonizing stored roots. These data were used to develop a multi-target qPCR technique for early detection of postharvest diseases. Results: The comparison of beet microbiomes from six clamps in Austria and Germany highlighted regional differences; nevertheless, universal indicators of the health status were identified. Apart from a significant decrease in microbial diversity in decaying sugar beets (p ≤ 0.01), a distinctive shift in the taxonomic composition of the overall microbiome was found. Fungal taxa such as Candida and Penicillium together with the gram-positive Lactobacillus were the main disease indicators in the microbiome of decaying sugar beets. In contrast, the genera Plectosphaerella and Vishniacozyma as well as a higher microbial diversity in general were found to reflect the microbiome of healthy beets.
