摘要
In vitro detached leaf assays involving artificial inoculation of wounded and unwounded oat and wheat leaves were used to investigate the potential pathogenicity and aggressiveness of F. langsethiae, which was linked recently to the production of type A trichothecenes, HT-2 and T-2 in cereals in Europe. In the first two experiments, two assays compared disease development by F. langsethiae with known fusarium head blight pathogen species each used as a composited inoculum (mixture of isolates) at 10A degrees C and 20A degrees C and found all fungal species to be pathogenic to oat and wheat leaves in the wounded leaf assay. In the unwounded leaf assay, F. langsethiae was not pathogenic to wheat leaves. Furthermore, there were highly significant differences in the aggressiveness of pathogens as measured by lesion length (P < 0.001). In the second two experiments, pathogenicity of individual F. langsethiae isolates previously used in the composite inoculum was investigated on three oat and three wheat varieties. The wounded leaf assay showed that all isolates were pathogenic to all oat and wheat varieties but only pathogenic towards oat varieties in the unwounded assay. Highly significant differences (P < 0.001) in lesion length were found between cereal varieties as well as between isolates in the wounded assay. Significant differences in lesion lengths (P = 0.014) were also observed between isolates in the unwounded assay. Results from the detached leaf assays suggest that F. langsethiae is a pathogen of wheat and oats and may have developed some host preference towards oats.
