This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gaeumannomyces graminis var. graminis (Ggg) is an ectotrophic root infecting fungus that causes root-decline of warm-season turfgrasses and black sheath rot of rice (Oryza sativa). A total of 76 Ggg isolates were collected from St. Augustinegrass (Stenotaphrum secundatum) throughout Texas. Variations of colony morphology, hyphopodia production, teleomorphic and anamorphic structures, and growth rate of isolates were examined on potato dextrose agar (PDA), and rice seedling pathogenicity assays were performed. A multilocus phylogeny reconstruction was developed to support phenotypic data and to resolve the phylogeny of Ggg. Fungicide sensitivities were also evaluated. Azoxystrobin 50% effective concentration (EC50) values of nine isolates were determined in the presence and absence of salicylhydroxamic acid (SHAM) for determination of alternative respiration. Tebuconazole and azoxystrobin EC50 values from 15 and 20 isolates, respectively, were used to establish single discriminatory concentrations for resistance screening and EC50 determination of remaining isolates. Isolates were also screened for thiophanate-methyl resistance. Three phenotypic groups were found on PDA: (i) highly melanized with round colony formation (termed M group), (ii) non to slightly melanized with round colony formation (termed L group), and (iii) highly melanized with irregular colony formation (termed H group). All isolates produced lobed hyphopodia and a Phialophora-like anamorph, where phialospore lengths were significantly longer among M and H groups compared to the L group. M group isolates were adapted to warmer temperatures compared to L and H group isolates, and groups were differentiated based on growth rates at 35°C. The M group was most aggressive. A multilocus phylogeny reconstruction supported the differentiation between phenotypic groups and distinguished Ggg and G. graminis varieties avenae and tritici. EC50 values from azoxystrobin-amended PDA were significantly lower in the presence of SHAM, indicating utilization of alternative respiration. Azoxystrobin and tebuconazole discriminatory concentrations were 0.1 [micro]g a.i. ml−1 and were effective for rapid EC50 determination. Azoxystrobin EC50 values for 75 isolates ranged from

This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Take-all, caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis, is a devastating root disease on cereal crops and turfgrasses worldwide. Three varieties of the fungus have been described and are distinguished from one another based on hyphopodium type and ascospore length. G. graminis var. avenae (Gga) produces simple hyphopodia and generally longer ascospores as compared with G. graminis var. tritici (Ggt) and var. graminis (Ggg). G. graminis isolates were subjected to morphological, molecular and pathogenicity assays in an effort to determine the most reliable method for differentiating varieties. A host pathogenicity test tube assay was developed to induce the formation of perithecia and ascospores and to determine the pathogenicity of isolates on wheat and oats. Gga isolates were distinguished from Ggt and Ggg based on pathogenicity on oats and the production of amplicons with an avenacinase-specific primer set, Gga:AV3. Ggt and Ggg were not distinguished due to overlaps among all characters. Gga is also the causal agent of take-all on creeping bentgrass. A rapid assay was developed and used to determine the effect of root zone mix composition on take-all incidence of creeping bentgrass. Sand type and organic matter amendment were shown to influence disease incidence. Plants grown in mason sands amended with 20% compost (v/v) had significantly less root disease incidence as compared with all other mixes. Gga is the only variety to produce avenacinase, detoxify avenacin and to infect oats. Avenacin production in creeping bentgrass was determined using fluorimetry, TLC and HPLC. Avenacin was not detected in creeping bentgrass and Ggt isolates were shown to be able to infect creeping bentgrass indicating Gga or Ggt may incite take-all patch. The development of a real-time PCR assay for Gga was unsuccessful due non-specific amplification from other varieties. However, avenacinase sequence information obtained indicated Gga and Ggt are more closely related to each other than to Ggg. Although Ggt does not express avenacinase activity, the aspartic acid residues which are believed to be the active sites of the avenacinase enzyme are conserved within the Ggt avenacinase-like gene sequence.
