A New Record and Characterization of Asparagus Purple Spot Caused by Stemphylium vesicarium in Korea.

ABSTRACT: In 2017, small, elliptical, brownish purple spots on spears and ferns of asparagus were found in fields of Gangwon-do. The isolated fungal species was identified as an ascomycete Stemphylium vesicarium based on morphological characteristics and molecular phylogenic analyses including nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), and cytochrome b (cytb). A pathogenicity test revealed that S. vesicarium was the causal agent of purple spot disease on asparagus. The occurrence of purple spots caused by S. vesicarium on asparagus is the first report in Korea.

Identification and Characterization of New Record of Grape Ripe Rot Disease Caused by Colletotrichum viniferum in Korea.

Project description:In 2016, grape fruits showing ripe rot symptom were found in fields of Korea. The fungus was isolated and identified as Colletotrichum viniferum based on morphological characteristics and nucleotide sequence data of the internal transcribed spacer, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase and β-tubulin. To our knowledge, this is the first report of C. viniferum causing grape ripe rot disease of grape fruits in Korea.

Characterization and Pathogenicity of New Record of Anthracnose on Various Chili Varieties Caused by Colletotrichum scovillei in Korea.

Project description:The anthracnose disease caused by Colletotrichum species is well-known as a major plant pathogen that primarily causes fruit rot in pepper and reduces its marketability. Thirty-five isolates representing species of Colletotrichum were obtained from chili fruits showing anthracnose disease symptoms in Chungcheongnam-do and Chungcheongbuk-do, South Korea. These 35 isolates were characterized according to morphological characteristics and nucleotide sequence data of internal transcribed spacer, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate-dehydrogenase, and β-tubulin. The combined dataset shows that all of these 35 isolates were identified as C. scovillei and morphological characteristics were directly correlated with the nucleotide sequence data. Notably, these isolates were recorded for the first time as the causes of anthracnose caused by C. scovillei on pepper in Korea. Forty cultivars were used to investigate the pathogenicity and to identify the possible source of resistance. The result reveals that all of chili cultivars used in this study are susceptible to C. scovillei.

Occurrence and Characterization of Leaf Spot Caused by Septoria melissae on Lemon Balm in Korea.

Project description:Leaf spot on lemon balm is frequently observed in Korea, causing considerable damage to crops. In 2014 and 2015, the occurrence of leaf spot was observed in several production greenhouses at Suwon, Gongju, and Namwon in Korea. Symptoms on lower leaves initially developed as small, distinct, discolored lesions, which enlarged progressively turning into dark brown, angular spots surrounded by purplish-brown margins. Based on the morphological characteristics and sequence analysis of actin (ACT), translation elongation factor 1-alpha (EF-1α), internal transcribed spacer (ITS), 28S nrDNA (LSU), and RNA polymerase II second largest subunit (RPB2), the fungus associated with the lemon balm leaf spot was determined as Septoria melissae. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of lemon balm leaf spot caused by S. melissae in Asia as well as in Korea.

Origin of purple asparagus cultivar 'Pacific Purple' based on the sequence of sex determination gene.

Project description:Garden asparagus is one of the most important crops worldwide. Since this crop is dioecious and male plants generally have higher yields compared to female plants, several DNA markers for sex identification have been developed for acceleration of asparagus breeding. Among these markers, Asp1-T7sp and MSSTS710 were found to be effective in sex determination for many asparagus cultivars. However, we previously found that these markers were not completely suitable for sex identification in the purple asparagus cultivar 'Pacific Purple'. There are two types of male individuals in this cultivar: One type is PP-m, which is identified the sex type by Asp1-T7sp and MSSTS710 markers, while the other type is PP-m* whose sex type is not identified by these markers. Since the sex identification markers are located on the non-recombining Y region, it was expected that the sequence around this region might be different between PP-m and PP-m*. In this study, the sequence of one of the sex-determining genes, MSE1/AoMYB35/AspTDF1, was analyzed, and a comparative analysis was conducted among PP-m and PP-m* of 'Pacific Purple', A. officinalis and related species A. maritimus. The results revealed that PP-m and PP-m* has the similar sequence of MSE1/AoMYB35/AspTDF1 gene from A. officinalis and A. maritimus, respectively. 'Pacific Purple' is a cultivar developed through polycross hybrid from Italian landrace 'Violetto d'Albenga' (VA), suggesting that VA originated from an interspecific crossing between A. officinalis and A. maritimus and that the pollen parent used in 'Pacific Purple' breeding contained two types of male individuals with different MSE1/AoMYB35/AspTDF1 sequence. As a result, PP-m and PP-m* of 'Pacific Purple' harbors the similar sequences of the MSE1/AoMYB35/AspTDF1 gene from A. officinalis and A. maritimus, respectively.

Spot Anthracnose Disease Caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides on Tulip Tree in Korea.

Project description:The tulip tree (Liriodendron chinense) has been widely cultivated in Korea as a street or garden tree for its large flowers, which have a superficial resemblance to tulips. Occurrence of anthracnose disease on the leaves of tulip trees growing on the campus of Gyeongsang National University, Jinju, Korea, has been observed. Based on mycological characteristics, pathogenicity, and internal transcribed spacer sequence, the causal fungus was identified as Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. This is the first report on anthracnose disease caused by C. gloeosporioides on tulip trees in Korea.

First Record of Alternaria simsimi Causing Leaf Spot on Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) in Korea.

Project description:Leaf spot disease was observed in sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) during 2009 and 2010 in Korea. The pathogen was identified as Alternaria simsimi based on morphological and cultural characteristics. The morphological identification was well supported by phylogenetic analysis of the ribosomal DNA-internal transcribed spacer region. A. simsimi isolates caused spot symptoms on leaves and stems of sesame plants 2 wk after artificial inoculation, which were similar to those observed in the field. This is the first record of leaf spot disease in Korea caused by A. simsimi.

New Record of Mariannaea elegans var. elegans in Korea.

Project description:A Mariannaea fungus was isolated during investigation of an elm tree infested with unidentified beetles. Based on morphological characteristics and molecular analysis of the internal transcribed spacer rDNA sequence, the fungus was identified as Mariannaea elegans var. elegans. Fungal growth was better on malt extract agar than on potato dextrose agar and oatmeal agar. Optimal temperature and pH for growth of the fungus were 30? and pH 7.0, respectively. The fungus was found to have the ability to produce extracellular enzymes such as amylase, ?-glucosidase, cellulase, and protease. This is first report on M. elegans var. elegans in Korea.
