  • Determination of resistance in winter wheat genotypes to the dryland root rots caused by Fusarium culmorum in Turkey
    (Bolu Abant Izzet Baysal University, 2018) Erginbas Orakci, G.; Morgounov, A.; Dababat, A.A.
    The dryland root rot (foot/crown) caused by Fusarium spp. attacks cereals especially wheat and causes severe yield loss by reducing both grain quantity and quality. Among those Fusarium species attacking wheat crop is the Fusarium culmorum species which has been reported as the main crown rot causal agent in Turkey. Unfortunately, up-to-date, there is only some wheat genotypes with partial resistant to Fusarium spp. Therefore, this study was carried out to find new sources of resistance in diverse wheat genotypes to limit the damage caused by Fusarium disease. In this study, a total of 141 genotypes and breeding lines were obtained from 19 different countries, provided via the International Winter Wheat Improvement Program (IWWIP) and screened for their resistance reactions to a local isolate of Fusarium culmorum under three different environmental conditions (growth room, greenhouse and field) in Turkey in 2012. The best performed genotypes in terms of resistant were then rescreened in 2013 for data validation. Out of the 141 phenotyped wheat genotypes, 17 genotypes (12 %) ranked as moderately resistant (MR) at seedling and/or adult growth stage. The genotypes from Mexico seemed to have adult plant resistant rather than seedling resistance which was higher in the USA genotypes. Winter bread wheats PATWIN YR5 and TAST/SPRW//ZAR/5/YUANDONG 3/4/PPB8- 68/CHRC/3/PYN//TAM101/AMIGO which possess high level of resistance seem promising for breeding for foot rot.

  • First report of Fusarium hostae causing crown rot on wheat (Triticum spp.) in Turkey
    (American Phytopathological Society (APS), 2016) Gebremariam, E.S.; Dababat, A.A.; Erginbas Orakci, G.; Karakaya, A.; Sharma-Poudyal, D.; Paulitz, T.C.
    Crown rot disease of wheat is caused by a complex of Fusarium species. To identify species associated with crown rot in Turkey, crowns and stems of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and durum wheat (T. durum Desf.) were collected from the Central and Southeast Anatolia, Black Sea and Aegean regions in summer 2013. Crown and stem pieces were surface-disinfested with 1% sodium hypochlorite solution for 3 min, rinsed three times in sterile distilled water and dried on sterile filter paper. Sections were placed on peptone PCNB agar, a selective medium for Fusarium isolation and then transferred to Synthetischer Nährstoffarmer Agar (SNA) (Leslie and Summerell, 2006). Single conidia were isolated and monosporic Fusarium sp. cultures were identified as F. hostae by sequencing the translation elongation factor 1 alpha (TEF-1α) gene region using ef1 (5’-ATGGGTAAGGARGACAAGAC-3’) and ef2 (5’-GGARGTACCAGTSATCATG3’) primers (O’Donnell et al. 1998). The TEF gene sequences were analyzed with the NCBI GenBank database. Out of 339 isolates, 20 isolates were F. hostae and 17 had a 99% match with accessions of F. hostae (eg. DQ854862). F. hostae isolates were tested for their pathogenicity on susceptible durum wheat (T. durum) cultivar Kızıltan. Plastic tubes (2.5 cm in diameter and 16 cm in height) were filled with sterile sand, soil, and peat mixture (50:40:10, v:v:v). A PDA plug (1-cm diam.) was taken from the margin of a 7-day-old culture and placed in the tube. A single pregerminated seed was placed on the PDA plug and covered with sterile soil mix. A sterile agar plug was used as a control treatment. Each treatment was replicated 3 times, and the experiment was repeated to confirm the results. Scoring for disease severity was carried out nine weeks after inoculation, using a 1-5 scale based on the percentage area of the crown area that showed brown discoloration (1: 1-9%, 2: 10-29%, 3: 30-69%, 4:70-89%, 5: 90-99%) modified from Wildermuth and McNamara (1994). Scores ranged from 1 to 3 with an average of 2.2. The scores of seven isolates were significantly greater than the non inoculated control, and six isolates had scores of 3.0. Necrosis was observed on crowns of treated plants (Supp. Fig. 1), while control treatments showed no necrotic symptoms and were rated with a score of 1. For comparison, F. culmorum scores ranged from 2 to 5, with an average of 3.25. Re-isolation was carried out from crowns of both inoculated and control plants. The re-isolated cultures were confirmed as F. hostae by comparing their morphology with known cultures of F. hostae and no culture growth was observed from control plants.

  • First report of Fusarium redolens causing crown rot of wheat (Triticum spp.) in Turkey
    (American Phytopathological Society (APS), 2015) Gebremariam, E.S.; Karakaya, A.; Erginbas Orakci, G.; Dababat, A.A.; Sharma-Poudyal, D.; Paulitz, T.C.
    Fusarium crown rot, caused by a complex of Fusarium spp., is a yield-limiting disease of wheat world-wide, especially in dry Mediterranean climates. In order to identify Fusarium species associated with crown rot of wheat, a survey was conducted in summer 2013 in the major wheat growing regions of Turkey, including the Central and South East Anatolia, Black Sea, and Aegean. Crown and stem base pieces from bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) showing symptoms of discoloration were surface disinfested in 1% sodium hypochlorite solution for 3 min., rinsed three times in sterile distilled water, dried on sterile filter paper, and cultured on peptone PCNB agar (Leslie and Summerell, 2006). Growing colonies were transferred to Synthetischer Nährstoffarmer Agar (Leslie and Summerell, 2006) for sporulation. Single spores were isolated in sterile distilled water and transferred to water agar for single spore isolation. Monosporic cultures were identified as Fusarium redolens Wollenw. by morphology (Leslie and Summerell, 2006) and by sequencing the translation elongation factor -1 alpha (TEF-1α) gene region using ef1 (5’- ATGGGTAAGGARGACAAGAC-3’) and ef2 (5’-GGARGTACCAGTSATCATG-3’) primers (O’Donnell et al. 1998). BLAST analysis with the NCBI GenBank database was performed on the TEF gene sequences (approximately 650 bp) for all isolates. Nineteen isolates resulted in matches of 99% and 100% respectively to the F. redolens accessions GU250584 and HQ731063. These isolates were tested for pathogenicity on the susceptible durum wheat variety (Kiziltan). Plastic tubes (2.5 cm in diam X 16 cm in height) were filled with a mixture of sterile sand, soil, and peat (50:40:10, v:v). A PDA plug (1-cm diam.) was taken from the margin of a 7-day-old culture and placed in the tube. A single pre-germinated seed was placed on the PDA plug and covered with planting medium. A sterile agar plug was used as a non-inoculated control. Each treatment (isolates and control) had three replicates, and the experiment was repeated to confirm the results. Nine weeks after inoculation, plants were washed and checked for disease symptoms on both the crown and the stem base. Rating for disease severity was performed using a 1-5 scale (1: 1-9%, 2: 10-29%, 3: 30-69%, 4: 70- 89%, 5: 90-99%) modified from Wildermuth and McNamara (1994) and results were analysed with ANOVA. Disease ratings ranged from 1 to 3 with an average of 1.7. Three of the isolates caused ratings significantly greater than the control (avg=3,3 and 2.7). Necrosis and brown discoloration was observed on the lower stems of these treated plants, while control treatments showed no symptoms. Fungi were re-isolated from crowns of inoculated plants and control plants and confirmed to be F. redolens based on morphology. Fusarium redolens has been reported to cause crown rot on durum wheat in Saskatchewan, Canada (Taheri et al. 2011), Fusarium yellows on chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) in Spain (JimenezFernandez et al. 2011), and rot of onions (Allium cepa L.) in Turkey. This report confirms F. redolens as causal agent of crown rot of wheat in Turkey.
