Trichoderma spp. has been one of the most widely used biological control agent of plant disease. By geneticaly labelling F. moniliforme with the GFP reporter gene, we have studied the antagonistic action of Trichoderma viride against this pathogenic fungus. The binary GFP reporter vector pCHF3-35S∷GFP was constructed, which carries the gfp gene driven by the CaMv35S promoter. The vector was transformed into F. moniliforme via Agrobacterium.The mycoparasitism of T.viride against F.moniliforme was tested by dual culture and examined with fluorescence microscope. The result of the dual culture showed that the T.viride maintained a strong competitive ability against F. moniliforme , by growing on the top of the pathogen colony. Fluorescence microscope observation indicated that attacked hyphae of F. moniliform were distorted, swollen or broken. This indicate an enzymatic by T.viride to degrade the host cell walls and used the cell contents as a source of nutrients (Fig 1) .展开更多

文摘Fusarium head blight(FHB) caused by Fusarium graminearum is a devastating fungal disease on small grain cereal crops,because it reduces yield and quality and causes the mycotoxin contamination to the grain.Dynamins and dynamin-related proteins(DRPs) are large GTPase superfamily members,which are typically involved in the budding and division of vesicles in eukaryotic cells,but their roles in Fusarium spp.remain unexplored.Here,we found that FgDnm1,a DRP and homolog to Dnm1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae,contributes to the normal fungal growth,sexual reproduction and sensitivity to fungicides.In addition,we found FgDnm1 co-localizes with mitochondria and is involved in toxisome formation and deoxynivalenol(DON) production.Several quinone outside inhibitors(QoIs) and succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors(SDHIs) cause fragmentated morphology of mitochondria.Importantly,the deletion of FgDnm1displays filamentous mitochondria and blocks the mitochondrial fragmentation induced by QoIs and SDHIs.Taken together,our studies uncover the effect of mitochondrial dynamics in fungal normal growth and how such events link to fungicides sensitivity and toxisome formation.Thus,we concluded that altered mitochondrial morphology induced by QoIs and SDHIs depends on FgDnm1.

文摘The jasmonic acid(JA)signaling pathway is involved in plant growth,development,and response to abiotic or biotic stresses.MYC2,a bHLH transcription factor,is a regulatory hub in the pathway.The function of ZmMYC7,a putative MYC2 ortholog,in jasmonate-signaled defense responses of maize has not been reported.In this study,we found that ZmMYC7 possesses JID,TAD,bHLH and Zip domains and essential characteristics of transcription factors:a nuclear location and transactivation activity.The ZmMYC7mutants showed markedly increased sensitivity to Fusarium graminearum and Setosphaeria turcica.The expression levels of the defense-associated genes ZmPR1,ZmPR2,ZmPR3,ZmPR5,ZmPR6,and ZmPR7 in response to F.graminearum infection were downregulated in ZmMYC7 mutants,while ZmPR4 and ZmPR10 were up-regulated.ZmMYC7 interacted with members of the ZmJAZ family,including ZmJAZ8,ZmJAZ11,and ZmJAZ12.ZmMYC7 physically interacted with G-box cis-elements in the ZmERF147 promoter in vitro and transcriptional activation of ZmERF147 by ZmMYC7 was inhibited by ZmJAZ11 and ZmJAZ12.ZmERF147 mutants were more susceptible to F.graminearum infection than inbred line B73with concomitant down-regulation of all defense-associated ZmPRs except ZmPR4.These findings indicate that ZmMYC7 functions in maize resistance to F.graminearum and sheds light on maize defense responses to pathogenic fungi via the JA signaling pathway.
