Project description:Rice false smut is a common fungal disease caused by Ustilaginoidea virens. As it only scatter occured in panicle at florescence, little information is known about this crop disease. In the previous study, 3 uninterrupted infecting stages were divided and each stage was monitored by Solexa/Illumina’s digital gene expression (DGE) system, and all data were submitted to NCBI (GSE32010). As the disease was greatly affected by environment and to eliminate environment factor, an experimental replication was done in 2011. Samples collection and analysis were described in GSE32010. Our results contribute to the knowledge of understanding rice molecular mechanism in response to U. virens infection.

Project description:Rice false smut is a common fungal disease caused by Ustilaginoidea virens. As it only scatter occured in panicle at florescence, little information is known about this crop disease. Here, we injected suspension spores into a susceptible indica rice cultivar 9311 booting panicle (infected water as mock) and divided the early disease symptom into 3 uninterrupted stages(S) at 6 day post inoculation (dpi): the infected pistil became expand (S1), the hyphae began to infect the bottom of anthers (S2) and the hyphae growth went on and surrounded the floral organ forming a floral-hyphae complex (S3). To gain insight into rice putatively differential responses to U. virens, all 3 infected and mock spikes with same spike length were collected and analyzed by Solexa/Illuminaâs digital gene expression (DGE) system, BGI. Our results contribute to the knowledge of understanding rice molecular mechanism in response to U. virens infection.

Project description:Rice false smut has emerged as a serious grain disease in rice production worldwide. The disease is characterized by the transformation of individual rice florets into false smut balls, which is caused by the fungal pathogen Ustilaginoidea virens. To date, little is known about the host factors required for false smut ball formation by U. virens. In this study, we identified histological determinants for the formation of false smut balls by inoculating U. virens into rice floral mutants defective with respect to individual floral parts. The results showed that U. virens could form mature false smut balls in rice floral mutants with defective pistils, but failed to develop false smut balls in the superwoman mutant lacking stamens, identifying that U. virens requires rice stamens to complete its infection cycle. Comparative transcriptome analysis indicated a list of candidate host genes that may facilitate nutrient acquisition by U. virens from the rice stamens, such as SWEET11, SWEET14 and SUT5, and genes involved in the biosynthesis of trehalose and raffinose family sugars. These data pinpoint rice stamens as the key target organ of U. virens infection and provide a valuable starting point for dissecting the molecular mechanism of false smut ball formation.

Project description:False smut caused by Ustilaginoidea virens is an important rice fungal disease that significantly decreases its production. In the recent past, conventional methods have been developed for its detection that is time-consuming and need high-cost equipments. The research and development in nanotechnology have made it possible to assemble efficient recognition interfaces in biosensors. In this study, we present a simple, sensitive, and selective oxidized graphene-based geno-biosensor for the detection of rice false smut. The biosensor has been developed using a probe DNA as a biological recognition element on paper electrodes, and oxidized graphene to enhance the limit of detection and sensitivity of the sensor. Probe single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and target ssDNA hybridization on the interface surface has been quantitatively measured with the electrochemical analysis tools namely, cyclic voltammetry, and linear sweep voltammetry. To confirm the selectivity of the device, probe hybridization with non-complementary ssDNA target has been studied. In our study, the developed sensor was able to detect up to 10 fM of target ssDNA. The paper electrodes were employed to produce an effective and cost-effective platform for the immobilization of the DNA and can be extended to design low-cost biosensors for the detection of the other plant pathogens.

Project description:Rice false smut caused by Ustilaginoidea virens is one of the most devastating diseases in rice worldwide, which results in serious reductions in rice quality and yield. As an airborne fungal disease, early diagnosis of rice false smut and monitoring its epidemics and distribution of its pathogens is particularly important to manage the infection. In this study, a quantitative loop-mediated isothermal amplification (q-LAMP) method for U. virens detection and quantification was developed. This method has higher sensitivity and efficiency compared to the quantitative real-time PCR (q-PCR) method. The species-specific primer that the UV-2 set used was designed based on the unique sequence of the U. virens ustiloxins biosynthetic gene (NCBI accession number: BR001221.1). The q-LAMP assay was able to detect a concentration of 6.4 spores/mL at an optimal reaction temperature of 63.4 °C within 60 min. Moreover, the q-LAMP assay could even achieve accurate quantitative detection when there were only nine spores on the tape. A linearized equation for the standard curve, y = -0.2866x + 13.829 (x is the amplification time, the spore number = 100.65y), was established for the detection and quantification of U. virens. In field detection applications, this q-LAMP method is more accurate and sensitive than traditional observation methods. Collectively, this study has established a powerful and simple monitoring tool for U. virens, which provides valuable technical support for the forecast and management of rice false smut, and a theoretical basis for precise fungicide application.

Project description:Rice false smut caused by Ustilaginoidea virens is a destructive disease in rice cropping areas of the world. The present study is focused on the morphology, pathogenicity, mating-type loci distribution, and genetic characterization of different isolates of U. virens. A total of 221 strains of U. virens were collected from 13 rice-growing regions in southwest China. The morphological features of these strains exhibited high diversity, and the pathogenicity of the smut fungus showed significant differentiation. There was no correlation between pathogenicity and sporulation. Mating-type locus (MAT) analysis revealed that all 221 isolates comprised heterothallic and homothallic forms, wherein 204 (92.31%) and 17 (7.69%) isolates belonged to heterothallic and homothallic mating types, respectively. Among 204 strains of heterothallic mating types, 62 (28.05%) contained MAT1-1-1 idiomorphs, and 142 isolates (64.25%) had the MAT1-2-1 idiomorph. Interestingly, strains isolated from the same fungus ball had different mating types. The genetic structure of the isolates was analyzed using simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). All isolates were clustered into five genetic groups. The values of Nei's gene diversity (H) and Shannon's information index (I) indicated that all strains as a group had higher genetic diversity than strains from a single geographical population. The pairwise population fixation index (FST) values also indicated significant genetic differentiation among all compared geographical populations. The analysis of molecular variation (AMOVA) indicated greater genetic variation within individual populations and less genetic variation among populations. The results showed that most of the strains were not clustered according to their geographical origin, showing the rich genetic diversity and the complex and diverse genetic background of U. virens in southwest China. These results should help to better understand the biological and genetic diversity of U. virens in southwest China and provide a theoretical basis for building effective management strategies.

Project description:Rice false smut caused by Ustilaginoidea virens is one of the most important diseases of rice worldwide. Although its genome has been sequenced, to date there is no report on targeted gene deletion in U. virens and no molecular studies on genetic mechanisms regulating the infection processes of this destructive pathogen. In this study, we attempted to generate knockout mutants of the ortholog of yeast HOG1 MAP kinase gene in U. virens. One Uvhog1 deletion mutant was identified after screening over 600 hygromycin-resistant transformants generated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated transformation. The Uvhog1 mutant was reduced in growth rate and conidiation but had increased sensitivities to SDS, Congo red, and hyperosmotic stress. Deletion of UvHOG1 resulted in reduced expression of the stress response-related genes UvATF1 and UvSKN7. In the Uvhog1 mutant, NaCl treatment failed to stimulate the accumulation of sorbitol and glycerol. In addition, the Uvhog1 mutant had reduced toxicity on shoot growth in rice seed germination assays. Overall, as the first report of targeted gene deletion mutant in U. virens, our results showed that UvHOG1 likely has conserved roles in regulating stress responses, hyphal growth, and possibly secondary metabolism.
