    In order to investigate the effect of exogenous nitric oxide (NO) on the expression of tomato antioxidant gene under the stress of tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV), the susceptible tomato Jinpeng 1 was used as the experimental material. Transcriptome sequencing, fluorescent qRT-PCR and bioinformatics analysis were performed under control (CK), TYLCV (TY) and NO+TYLCV (NO+TY) treatments. The results showed that a total of 55 antioxidase-coding genes were selected in the tomato genome, among which the antioxidase-containing genes with the highest number of exons in different subcellular regions were significantly responsive to TYLCV stress. The number of NO-mediated antioxidant enzyme coding genes in different subcellular compartms showed chloroplast>cell membrane>cytoplasm>peroxisome>vacuole, in which the expression levels of Chl Cu-Zn SODChl MR2Chl GRPer MRPla CAT1 and Pla CAT7 were significantly up-regulated, and the expression levels of Chl Fe SOD1Chl Fe SOD2Cyt GPXCyt APX1Cyt APX2 L-5Pla CAT3Pla CAT8 and Vac CAT were significantly down-regulated. Fluorescence qRT-PCR verified that Chl GRMin Mn SOD and Per CAT2 responded to TYLCV, and Chl Cu-Zn SODPla CAT7Pla CAT8 and Cyt APX2 L-5 responded to TYLCV and NO.

    To explore the physiological response of tobacco plant infected by Phytophthora to Trichoderma harzianum application sequence, the pot experiments were carried out with different treatments including inoculated with Phytophthora spore suspension (T1), inoculated with T. harzianum spore suspension (T2), inoculated with Phytophthora spore suspension first and then inoculated with T. harzianum spore suspension (T3), inoculated with T.harzianum spore suspension first and then inoculated with Phytophthora spore suspension (T4), inoculated with Phytophthora spore suspension and T. harzianum spore suspension at the same time (T5), and clear water (CK) as controls. The effects of T. harzianum application sequence on biological characteristics, physiological characteristics and induced resistance of tobacco infected by Phytophthora were analyzed. The results showed that, in the growth of tobacco plants, the agronomic characters of tobacco plants with T4 treatment increased the most, and the dry and fresh weight of underground parts increased by 103.73% and 8.30% compared with CK. In the physiological characteristics of tobacco plants, T. harzianum could reduce the inhibition of Phytophthora on photosynthetic pigment accumulation and root activity of tobacco plants, and significantly increase both of them, and it could also strengthen the activities of enzymes related to carbon and nitrogen metabolism in tobacco plants. After transplanting 21 d, the activities of nitrate reductase and glutamine synthetase with T4 treatment increased by 13.14% and 6.40%, respectively. In the control effect, T4 treatment had the lowest incidence and disease index, which were 39.39% and 13.89%, and the highest antioxidant enzyme activity. In conclusion, there were significant differences in the physiological response of tobacco plants to the inoculation sequence of T. harzianum. In production, T. harzianum should be inoculated in advance to promote the growth and development of tobacco and inhibit the incidence of black shank disease. Above results laid a theoretical foundation for the regulation of tobacco growth and development and the comprehensive prevention and control of black shank.

    Trichoderma is a widely distributed filamentous fungus and widely used as a biological fungicide to control a variety of plant diseases in agriculture due to its excellent biocontrol potential. Trichoderma can reduce plant diseases caused by pathogens through different direct mechanisms (mycoparasitism and the production of cell wall degrading enzymes, antibiosis, competition for space or nutrients) or indirect mechanisms (induction of plant defense ). Compound biocontrol agents have received increasing attention in recent years. Trichoderma can be used in combination with other biocontrol products to produce better biocontrol effects because of its resistance to chemical pesticides and compatibility with rhizosphere microorganisms. The related mechanisms of Trichoderma, including parasitism, antibiosis, nutrient competition and induction of plant resistance were summarized, and the current research progress were discussed. In addition, the research progress of synergistic disease prevention between Trichoderma and other microorganisms or non-biological (chemical fungicides, other substances) with disease prevention effect was reviewed, and the current research status and the subsequent development prospects of Trichoderma as a biological fungicide were explored.

    Ectropis obliqua is one of the most important pests on tea, which has brought serious economic losses to the tea industry. Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)?, as a key biological insecticide for the control of E. obliqua, plays an important role in the green prevention and control of diseases and pests in tea gardens. To clarify the effect of Bt treatment on intestinal bacteria of E. obliqua larvae, the Illumina platform using 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing was applied to compare the structure and population diversity of intestinal commensal community in E. obliqua larvae treated with different dosage of Bt suspensions. The results showed that, compared with CK treatment, the intestinal bacterial composition of E. obliqua larvae treated with lower dosage of Bt did not change significantly, but those treated with higher dosage of Bt had significant effect on the composition of intestinal bacteria in E. obliqua larvae. And the treatments with higher dosage of Bt significantly increased the diversity and abundance of intestinal bacteria in E. obliqua larvae, which indicated that intestinal microorganisms were involved in the response of E. obliqua larvae to Bt infection. Above results provided basis for further exploring the insecticidal mechanism of Bt, and provided new ideas for improving the virulence of Bt.

    To clarify the taxonomy of the pathogen causing a new bacterial leaf spot disease on fig (Ficus carica) in Fuzhou in 2020, diseased fig leaves were collected as test materials. The bacterial strains were isolated from the diseased leaves by streak plate method, and then the pathogenicity of the strains was determined by tobacco allergic reaction, spray inoculated fig leaves and Koch’s rule. The pathogen was identified based on morphological characteristics, physiological and biochemical determination, and phylogenetic tree analysis using partial sequences of 16S rDNA, gyrB and rpoD. The results showed that 10 bacterial strains were isolated and purified from the diseased leaves, healthy fig leaves demonstrated similar symptoms as the specimen collected from fields, and the identical morphological bacterial strains were re-isolated from diseased fig leaves. Thus, all of the bacterial strains were identified as the causal pathogens of bacterial leaf spot disease by Koch’s rule. The colony morphology was light yellow, round, and flat on the NA medium after 2 d of culture, and the gram staining reaction was negative. The bacterial strains could produce green water-soluble fluorescent on KB medium. The sequencing analysis based on 16S rDNA, gyrB and rpoD showed that the test strains were clustered with Pseudomonas cichorii; and the results of physiological and biochemical characteristics, Biolog phenotypes instrument, and specific primers were similar to the P. cichorii strain 5707, therefore the 10 isolated bacterial strains were identified as P. cichorii. It was the first report that P. cichorii could naturally cause the leaf spot disease in F. carica.

    Abstract2150)      PDF (623KB)(2675)       Save

    Real-time quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) technology, with quantitative accuracy, high sensitivity and high-throughput characteristics, has been widely used in gene expression analysis. Based on the relative quantitative analysis, qRT-PCR data must be normalized with one or more proper and stable internal reference genes. House-keeping genes are customarily used as endogenous references for relative quantification. But not a single gene can act as a universal reference reported so far. Most of the traditional housekeeping genes are unable to ensure accurate normalization in qRT-PCR. Based on the tremendous gene-chip expression data and public deposited EST data, new reference genes with superior stability were selected and verified with qRT-PCR. The research progress of reference genes in plant qRT-PCR was reviewed and aspects to be considered in future reference gene selection were also discussed.

    With the completion of crop genome sequencing, a large number of genes' functions affecting important agronomic traits of crops are waiting to be discovered. Due to the lack of genetic transformation methods, the research on gene function of most crops is progressing slowly. Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) technology does not rely on genetic transformation. Through virus vector inoculation, efficient silencing of targeted genes can be achieved in contemporary plants. VIGS technology is increasingly used in reverse genetics for analysis of gene functions and metabolic pathways in different crops due to its fast onset time, high silencing efficiency, low operating cost, high-throughput and wide application of plants. This article introduced the technical principles and development process of VIGS, systematically summarized the application of VIGS in different crop research, and then summarized and discussed the limitations of existing VIGS applications and several key factors affecting its silence efficiency, and finally the application in future plant biology research was prospected, which would provide reference for its further application and development.

    Sharp eyespot of wheat is a frequent soil borne disease worldwide, which has serious harm on stable and high yield of wheat. To clarify the induction effect of Piriformospora indica, an endophytic fungus, on wheat resistance to sharp eyespot and to use a biological method which breaking through the traditional chemical control mode to enhance wheat resistance to sharp eyespot, wheat seeds were soaked in P. indica spore solution, followed by inoculation with Rhizoctonia cerealis, and physiological and biochemical indicators and transcriptome results were analyzed. The results showed that pre-colonization of P. indica in wheat could enhance the activity of antioxidant enzymes, alleviate the reduction of relative water content caused by Rhizoctonia cerealis and increase the membrane stability that partially destroyed by the fungi by 39.6%, and could also raise the content of chlorophyll by 32.3%, improving the photosynthesis ability of wheat. The transcriptome analysis revealed that the colonization of P. indica could restore the transcriptome changes caused by pathogenic fungi, induce the expression of related resistance genes, and improved plant biomass by influencing hormonal metabolic pathways. The resistance of wheat to R. cerealis had been comprehensively promoted by various ways and means. Key genes including TraesCS1A02G372300 and TraesCS1B02G393100 etc had been screened based on the transcriptome data, which would provide theoretical and experimental basis for catching on the kernal layer of plant-microbe interaction and acceleration of the breeding work related to disease resistance and yield increase.

    The rapid growth of the global population and tremendous climatic changes are new challenges for food security and compel breeders to develop new avenues of crop breeding. In recent years, the deep integration of biotechnology (BT) with artificial intelligence (AI), big data, and other information technology (IT) has promoted the rapid development of intelligent design breeding technology. AI-based breeding technology accelerates multi-omics mapping and functional elucidation and the identification of excellent allele variations around the genome, and breeds new varieties through genome design breeding traits. The crucial agricultural breeding traits of crops are synergistically regulated by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors that epigenetic marks bridge other factors playing a pivotal role in the regulation of traits. The development of intelligent design technology makes it possible for accurate design breeding based on epigenetic inheritance, which is becoming a new way to improve crop breeding traits. The deep integration of epigenetics and AI has greatly facilitated the identification of genome-wide epigenetic modification sites and the elucidation of regulatory mechanisms. The design of regulatory circuits based on these epigenetic sites has been innovated to achieve the directional creation of new germplasm with excellent comprehensive traits and the cultivation of major varieties.

    In order to investigate the synergistic effect of different antagonistic bacteria, Streptomyces and their combination with chemical fungicides on Atractylodes macrocephala blight disease, the compatibility of different antagonists and chemical fungicides was measured by dilution plate and drug-containing plate method at first. Then the plate confrontation method and growth rate method were used to evaluate the inhibition effect of antagonists compound solution and antagonists+chemical fungicides compound on Phytophthora sansomeana AMPH-1, which was the pathogen of A. macrocephala blight disease. The results showed that the Bacillus BZX-2, BZX-11 and X-119 strains had good compatibility with dimethomorph. The combination of BZX-2+BZX-11+X-119 had the best inhibition effect, and the inhibition rate reached 75.45%, which was lower than that of the treatment using X-119 alone. When the ratio of antagonist combination of Bacillus strains and dimethomorph was 1∶2, the inhibition effect reached 68.61%, which increased 16.83% and 13.59% compared with dimethomorph treatment and antagonists treatment, respectively. By the pot experiment in greenhouse, it was found that the greenhouse control efficiency of BZX-2+BZX-11+X-119 combination with equal proportion mixing was 72.72% on A. macrocephala blight disease, which was 45.45 percentage points higher than that of BZX-2 treatment. Above results provided effective basis for the new strategy of A. macrocephala blight disease control.

    Abstract1567)      PDF (466KB)(1013)       Save

    There are 29 AHL proteins (AT-hook motif nuclear localized proteins) in Arabidopsis, but the functions of their mojorities remain unknown. The AHL27 protein, reported in this study, contains an AT-hook motif and a PPC domain. The analysis of mRNA expression in different tissue organs and GUS histochemical staining showed that AHL27 was mainly expressed in roots and flowers. The sub-cellular localization of GFP-AHL27 indicated that AHL27 was a nuclear protein. AHL27 over-expression could inhibit the expression of flowering gene FT and promote the FLC expression, therefore, delay the Arabidopsis flowering time both under long daylight and short daylight conditions. Our data suggested that AHL27 could play a very important role in Arabidopsis growth and development.
