Abstract
Many oomycete species are associated with the seedlings of crops, including upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.), which leads to annual threats. The diversity of oomycete species in Alabama needs to be better understood since the last survey of oomycetes associated with cotton in Alabama was 20 years ago-before significant updates to taxonomy and improvements in identification of oomycetes using molecular tools. Our current study aimed to identify oomycetes associated with Alabama cotton seedlings, correlate diversity with soil edaphic factors, and assess virulence toward cotton seed. Thirty symptomatic cotton seedlings were collected independently from 25 fields in 2021 and 2022 2 to 4 weeks after planting. Oomycetes were isolated by plating root sections onto a semiselective medium. The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region was sequenced to identify the resulting isolates. A seed virulence assay was conducted in vitro to verify pathogenicity, and 347 oomycete isolates were obtained representing 36 species. Northern Alabama soils had the richest oomycete communities and a greater silt and clay concentration than sandier soils in the central and southern coastal plains. Globisporangium irregulare and Phytophthora nicotianae were consistently recovered from cotton roots in both years. Globisporangium irregulare was pathogenic and recovered from all Alabama regions, whereas P. nicotianae was pathogenic but recovered primarily in areas with lower sand content in northern Alabama. Many oomycete species have not been previously reported in Alabama or the southeastern United States. Altogether, this knowledge will help facilitate effective management strategies for cotton seedling diseases caused by oomycetes in Alabama and the United States.

Ma Z, Feng H, Yang C, Ma X, Li P, Feng Z, Zhang Y, Zhao L, Zhou J, Xu X, Zhu H, Wei F. Integrated microbiology and metabolomics analysis reveal responses of cotton rhizosphere microbiome and metabolite spectrum to conventional seed coating agents. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 333:122058. [PMID: 37330187 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122058] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2023] [Revised: 06/10/2023] [Accepted: 06/14/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
Fludioxonil (FL) and metalaxyl-M·fludioxonil·azoxystrobin (MFA) are conventional seed coating agents for controlling cotton seedling diseases. However, their effects on seed endophytic and rhizosphere microecology are still poorly understood. This study aimed to assess the effects of FL and MFA on cotton seed endophytes, rhizosphere soil enzymatic activities, microbiome and metabolites. Both seed coating agents significantly changed seed endophytic bacterial and fungal communities. Growing coated seeds in the soils originating from the Alar (AL) and Shihezi (SH) region inhibited soil catalase activity and decreased both bacterial and fungal biomass. Seed coating agents increased rhizosphere bacterial alpha diversity for the first 21 days but decreased fungal alpha diversity after day 21 in the AL soil. Seed coating reduced the abundance of a number of beneficial microorganisms but enriched some potential pollutant-degrading microorganisms. Seed coating agents may have affected the complexity of the co-occurrence network of the microbiome in the AL soil, reducing connectivity, opposite to what was observed in the SH soil. MFA had more pronounced effects on soil metabolic activities than FL. Furthermore, there were strong links between soil microbial communities, metabolites and enzymatic activities. These findings provide valuable information for future research and development on application of seed coatings for disease management.

Abstract
Microbial communities are essential for soil health, but fungicide application may have significant effects on their structure. It is difficult to predict whether nontarget pathogens of applied fungicides in the soil will cause crop damage. Tebuconazole is a triazole fungicide that can be used as a seed treatment and, thereby, introduced to the soil. However, seed-applied tebuconazole has a potential risk of causing poor emergence of corn (Zea mays) seedlings. Using soil with a history of poor corn seedling emergence, we demonstrate through TA cloning and isolation that the poor emergence of corn seedlings from tebuconazole-coated corn seeds was primarily because of infection by surviving soil pathogens, specifically Pythium species that are not targeted by tebuconazole, rather than the phytotoxic effects of tebuconazole. Bioassay tests on tebuconazole-amended media showed that tebuconazole can suppress soil fungi while allowing Pythium to grow. Pythium species primarily contributing to the corn seed rot were more pathogenic at cooler temperatures. Furthermore, the nontarget biocontrol agent of Trichoderma spp. was strongly inhibited by tebuconazole. Taken together, the nontarget effects of tebuconazole are likely not significant under favorable plant growing conditions but are considerable because of low-temperature stress.

Abstract
Pre-sowing seed treatment with systemic fungicides is a firmly entrenched practice for most agricultural crops worldwide. The treatment is intended to protect the crop against seed- and soil-borne diseases. In recent years, there is increasing evidence that fungicidal applications to manage diseases might inadvertently also affect non-target organisms, such as endophytes. Endophytes are ubiquitously present in plants and contribute to plant growth and development besides offering resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. In seeds, endophytes may play a role in seed development, seed germination, seedling establishment and crop performance. In this paper, we review the recent literature on non-target effects of fungicidal applications on endophytic fungal community and discuss the possible consequences of indiscriminate seed treatment with systemic fungicide on seed endophytes. It is now well recognized that endophytes are ubiquitously present in all parts of the plant, including the seeds. They may be transmitted vertically from seed to seed as in many grasses and/or acquired horizontally from the soil and the environment. Though the origins and evolution of these organisms in plants are a matter of conjecture, numerous studies have shown that they symbiotically aid in plant growth and development, in nutrient acquisition as well in protecting the plants from abiotic and biotic stresses. Against this background, it is reasonable to assume that the use of systemic fungicides in seed treatment may not only affect the seed endophytes but also their attendant benefits to seedling growth and establishment. While there is evidence to indicate that fungicidal applications to manage plant diseases also affect foliar endophytes, there are only few studies that have documented the effect of seed treatment on seed-borne endophytes. Some of the convincing examples of the latter come from studies on the effect of fungicide application on rye grass seed endophyte AR37. More recently, experiments have shown that removal of seed endophytes by treatment with systemic fungicides leads to significant loss of seedling vigour and that such losses could be partially restored by enriching the seedlings with the lost endophytes. Put together, these studies reinforce the importance of seed endophytes to seedling growth and establishment and draw attention on how to trade the balance between the benefits of seed treatments and the direct and indirect costs incurred due to loss of endophytes. Among several approaches, use of reduced-risk fungicides and identifying fungicide-resistant endophytes are suggested to sustain the endophyte contribution to early seedling growth.

[PMID: 34054741 PMCID: PMC8155717 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2021.587431] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2020] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Pythium myriotylum is a notorious soil-borne oomycete that causes post-emergence damping-off in chili pepper. Of various disease management strategies, utilization of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) in disease suppression and plant growth promotion is an interesting strategy. The present study was performed to isolate and characterize PGPR indigenous to the chili rhizosphere in Pakistan, and to test the potential to suppress the damping-off and plant growth promotion in chili. Out of a total of 28 antagonists, eight bacterial isolates (4a2, JHL-8, JHL-12, 1C2, RH-24, 1D, 5C, and RH-87) significantly suppressed the colony growth of P. myriotylum in a dual culture experiment. All the tested bacterial isolates were characterized for biochemical attributes, and 16S rRNA sequence based phylogenetic analysis identified these isolates as Flavobacterium spp., Bacillus megaterium, Pseudomonas putida, Bacillus cereus, and Pseudomonas libanensis. All the tested bacterial isolates showed positive test results for ammonia production, starch hydrolase (except 4a2), and hydrogen cyanide production (except 4a2 and 1D). All the tested antagonists produced indole-3-acetic acid (13.4–39.0 μg mL–1), solubilized inorganic phosphate (75–103 μg mL–1), and produced siderophores (17.1–23.7%) in vitro. All the tested bacterial isolates showed varying levels of susceptibility and resistance response against different antibiotics and all these bacterial isolates were found to be non-pathogenic to chili seeds and notably enhanced percentage seed germination, plumule, redical length, and vigor index over un-inoculated control. Additionally, under pathogen pressure, bacterization increased the defense related enzymes such as Peroxidase (PO), polyphenol oxidase (PPO), and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activates. Moreover, the treatment of chili seeds with these bacterial isolates significantly suppressed the damping-off caused by P. myriotylum and improved PGP traits compared to the control. In addition, a positive correlation was noticed between shoot, root length, and dry shoot and root weight, and there was a negative correlation between dry shoot, root weight, and seedling percentage mortality. These results showed that native PGPR possesses multiple traits beneficial to the chili plants and can be used to develop eco-friendly and effective seed treatment formulation as an alternative to synthetic chemical fungicides.

Characterization of native plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and their anti-oomycete potential against Phytophthora capsici affecting chilli pepper (Capsicum annum L.). Sci Rep 2020; 10:13859. [PMID: 32807801 PMCID: PMC7431856 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-69410-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2020] [Accepted: 07/06/2020] [Indexed: 11/08/2022] Open
Abstract
Phytophthora capsici is a notorious fungus which infects many crop plants at their early and late growth stages. In the present study, twelve P. capsici isolates were morphologically characterized, and based on pathogenicity assays; two highly virulent isolates causing post-emergence damping-off on locally cultivated chilli pepper were screened. Two P. capsici isolates, HydPak1 (MF322868) and HydPk2 (MF322869) were identified based on internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence homology. Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) play a significant role in disease suppression and plant growth promotion in various crops. Out of fifteen bacterial strains recovered from chilli rhizosphere, eight were found potential antagonists to P. capsici in vitro. Bacterial strains with strong antifungal potential were subjected to biochemical and molecular analysis. All tested bacterial strains, were positive for hydrogen cyanide (HCN), catalase production and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production (ranging from 6.10 to 56.23 µg ml-1), while siderophore production varied between 12.5 and 33.5%. The 16S rRNA sequence analysis of tested bacterial strains showed 98-100% identity with Pseudomonas putida, P. libanensis, P. aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis, B. megaterium, and B. cereus sequences available in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) GenBank nucleotide database. All sequences of identified bacteria were submitted to GenBank for accessions numbers (MH796347-50, MH796355-56, MH801129 and MH801071). Greenhouse studies concluded that all tested bacterial strains significantly suppressed the P. capsici infections (52.3-63%) and enhanced the plant growth characters in chilli pepper. Efficacy of many of these tested rhizobacteria is being first time reported against P. capsici from Pakistan. Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) exhibiting multiple traits may be used in the development of new, eco-friendly, and effective bioformulations as an alternative to synthetic fungicides.

Abstract
Agro-food industries that use pesticides constitute significant point sources for the contamination of natural water resources. Despite that, little is known about the treatment of their pesticide-contaminated effluents. Biobeds could be a possible solution for the depuration of these effluents. In this context, we explored the degradation and adsorption of pesticides used in seed-coating (carboxin (CBX), metalaxyl-M (MET-M), fluxapyroxad (FLX), fludioxonil (FLD)), bulb-dipping (chlorothalonil (CHT), thiabendazole (TBZ), FLD) and fruit-packaging activities (FLD) in a biomixture, used as biobed packing material, and in soil. The degradation of pesticides was tested individually and in mixtures relevant to their industrial use, while FLD was also tested at different concentrations (10, 20, and 150 mg kg-1) representing its use in the different industries. CBX, FLD, and CHT, when applied individually, and all other pesticides when applied in mixtures, degraded more rapidly in biomixture than in soil. In most cases pesticides application in mixtures retarded their degradation. This was more pronounced in soil than in biomixture, especially for MET-M and FLD. CHT had the most prominent inhibitory effect on the degradation of TBZ and FLD. FLD degradation showed a dose-dependent pattern (DT50 42.4 days at 10 mg kg-1 and 107.6 days at 150 mg kg-1). All pesticides showed higher adsorption affinity in the biomixture (Kf = 3.23-123.3 g mL-1) compared to soil (Kf = 1.15-31.2 g mL-1). We provide initial evidence for the potential of the tested biomixture to remove pesticides contained in effluents produced by different agro-industrial activities. Tests in full-scale biobeds packed with this biomixture will unravel their full depuration potential for the treatment of these agro-industrial effluents.

Abstract
Seedling diseases are one of the major production problems for soybean. The primary control of soybean seedling diseases is by fungicide seed treatments but comparisons of seed treatments are difficult because stand responses are often erratic in the field. The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy of soybean fungicide seed treatments in naturally infested soils under controlled environments at three temperatures. Seed of three soybean cultivars were treated with six fungicide treatments or not treated and planted in two soil types collected from two fields in April, May, and June 2008 and 2009. Tests were conducted in growth chambers at 21°C (April planting), 25°C (May planting), or 28°C (June planting). Stands were determined when at least 25% of the seedlings reached the V4 growth stage. Seed treatments improved stands at all three temperatures, in both soils, and in both years. In general, the broad-spectrum fungicides trifloxystrobin + metalaxyl and mefenoxam + fludioxonil + azoxystrobin resulted in the highest stands. The selective fungicide treatments metalaxyl and pentachloronitrobenzene + carboxin were effective at all three temperatures, implying that Pythium spp. and Rhizoctonia solani, respectively, were involved in seedling disease and active over a range of temperatures. The efficacy of fungicides was not consistently associated with the cultivars used in this study.
