Collected isolates differed in respect of radial mycelial growth rate, color of the colony, surface texture of the colony, shape of the colony, conidia production ability and shape and color of conidia. ITS1 and ITS4 based PCR products yielded a species-specific band of 600 bp (base pairs) on agarose gel for the confirmation of B. sorokiniana. The mycelial growth rate of the isolates ranged from 1.39 to 4.46 mm/day. The septation of conidia ranged from 1.4 to 8.6. On the basis of conidia morphology, the isolates were grouped into five different groups, whereas the isolates were grouped into 12 cultural groups based on cultural characteristics. Cultural group 8 [CG (Cultural Group)-8] was the most virulent [38.5% LAD (Leaf area diseased)] and [CG (cultural Group)-4] was the less virulent [2% LAD (Leaf area diseased)] group among 12 groups when inoculated at tillering stage of wheat cv. Kachan.展开更多

The effects of geographic and genetic distances, as well as of genetic differentiation and population size, on genetic variations of Leymus chinensis (Trin.) Tzvel. are discussed. The present study showed that there was significant RAPD variation between the Baicheng region population and the Daqing region population, with a molecular variance of 6.35% (P 〈 0.04), and for differentiation among area populations of the Daqing region, with a molecular variance of 8.78% (P 〈 0.002). A 21.06% RAPD variation among all 16 populations among two regions was found (P 〈 0.001), as well as 72.59% variation within populations (P 〈 0.001). Molecular variation within populations was significantly different among 16 populations.展开更多
