The potato POTHR-1 gene encodes a protein of 225 amino acids, which shares 81% identity with tobacco hin1 gene-enoded protein (harpin-induced protein). Southern blot revealed that there are two to three copies of POTHR-1 in potato genome. The POTHR-1 gene expression in potato leaves showed that its transcripts accumulated remarkably in leaves after 36 h inoculation with P. infestans. Mechanical wounding and jasmonic acid (JA) could induce the POTHR-1 gene expression and osmotic stress just induce a slight accumulation of POTHR-1 gene mRNA, while salicylic acid (SA) had no detectable function on the induction accumulation of POTHR-1 gene transcripts. The potato POTHR-1 gene may preferentially associate with hypersensitive response (HR) or biotic cell death during interaction between host and pathogen.展开更多

Sensitivities were tested by measuring the radial growth on agar medium amended with fungicide, compared with the floating-leaf-disk method. 239 isolates were collected from eight tomato growing areas during 2000-2006. The testing results indicated that the frequencies of sensitive, intermediate, and resistant isolates to metalaxyl were 42.26, 35.98, and 23.53%, respectively. Variations in sensitivities amongst isolates from different areas or different years were very high for metalaxyl. All isolates from Tianlin and Wuxuan were sensitive to metalaxyl, but the metalaxyl-resistant isolates predominated in Tianyang, with the frequency of 51.35%. The EC50 values of certain isolates from Tianyang were higher than 500 μg·mL^-1 and their resistance levels were over 100 000 folds. Cymoxanil has been used for nearly 10 years in Guangxi, and dimethomorph has been used for 5-6 years. However, there was no decrease in sensitivity of P. infestans populations and the sensitivities of the pathogen were nearly normally distributed. Hence, their mean ECs0 value [cymoxanil (0.1647 ±0.0255) μg·mL^-1, dimethomorph (0.0970 ± 0.0052) μg·mL^-1 could be used as the baseline sensitivities for monitoring the field resistance development. The comparison with the floating-leaf-disk method indicates that both the techniques provided equivalent results. These studies suggested that metalaxyl can be continuously applied in Tianlin, Wuxuan, and Nanning due to the resistant isolates that have not been found, while for those areas with resistant isolate, the use of metalaxyl should be reduced or alternated, and cymoxanil or dimethomorph was recommended for controlling late blight disease of tomato.展开更多

It concluded that: (1) in the 90 isolates tested 21 different races were detected, of which the 1.3.4. 7. 9. 10. 11 was very common with frequency of 32. 2%, followed by 1. 3. 4. 6. 7. 9. 10. 11 and 3.4.7. 9. 11 with frequency of 10.0%; (2) all tested resistant genes were compatible to the virulent gene of isolates of Phytophthora infestans assayed, which indicated that the virulent genes were very common in the tested population of Phytophthora infestans.展开更多

The metalaxyl resistance, mating type and isozyme genotype of 292 P. infestans strains isolated from Guizhou Province were analyzed. [ Result] Metalaxyl-resistant P. infestans strains were found in different areas of Guizhou Province. Resistant, moderately resistant and susceptible strains accounted for 35.62% , 33.90% and 30.48% , re- spectively. Both mating types A1 and A2 were found, which accounted for 65.38% and 34.62%, respectively. P. infestans strains isolated from Guizhou Province mainly belonged to Gpi genotypes 100/100 and 100/100/111, accounting for 50.68% and 43.84%, respectively. [ Conclusion] This study provides the theoretical basis for the prevention and control of potato late blight in Guizhou Province.展开更多
