Abstract

Five cultivars and two populations of wild-type seedlings of American elm ( Ulmus americana), 3 and 4 years old, were examined for differences in their abilities to compartmentalize and resist infection by artificially inoculating with Ophiostoma novo-ulmi. Morphological characteristics of tree defence, often referred to as the compartmentalization of decay in trees model, were used as a conceptual framework, with particular emphasis on the limiting of tangential spread of infection within the xylem and barriers that limit spread outwards to cells formed after infection. To investigate the change in functional xylem over time, 3-year-old trees were assessed at multiple time points following inoculation for hydraulic conductivity. Three and four-year-old cut trees were placed in 0.1% w/v safranin O for 18 to 24 hr to indicate functional xylem. Transverse sections of the stained stems were used to calculate per cent of sap-conducting xylem area and the per cent of circumference conducting of first formed cells and later formed cells. At each collection time, trees were assessed for disease severity on a 1-12 scale, based on the percentage of permanent wilt in the crown. There was considerable variation between cultivars in disease severity and their capacity to localize and resist infection. 'Prairie Expedition,' which had the lowest disease severity rating in 2015 and the second lowest in 2016, consistently limited the spread of infection into newly formed xylem and had functional xylem around the entire circumference of the stem at 90 days post-inoculation. 'Valley Forge' in 2016 had the lowest overall disease severity rating and was the only cultivar to consistently limit the tangential spread of infection within extant xylem. This research identifies key characteristics that some cultivars have to resist and limit infection and provides new information that can be used in disease screening programmes to evaluate other cultivars and older plant material.

Abstract

Scientists working at New Harbor, Antarctica in November 1959 used a wooden crate as a makeshift workspace and kitchen. The structure has been used intermittently over the subsequent decades and still remains at the site with various materials left in and around it. The wooden structure was assessed for deterioration and samples collected to determine the diversity of fungi at the site after 43 years in the Antarctic environment. Results from these investigations are compared to the results from research on the historic huts of Ross Island, approximately 70 km east of New Harbor that were built 48-58 years earlier. Our analysis shows the wood of the New Harbor structure is extremely weathered and soft rot decay was detected in the wood in contact with the ground. Fungal cultures isolated from wood of the structure were identified using sequences of the internal transcribed spacer region of the rDNA. Several species of Cadophora were identified including C. malorum, C. luteo-olivacea, C. fastigiata and a previously undescribed species designated C. sp. NH. Laboratory decay experiments using two Cadophora species isolated from New Harbor demonstrated extensive decay and loss of biomass in hardwood wafers after 16 weeks. Other fungi isolated from the wood included species of Cladosporium, Hormonema, Penicillium and Lecythophora. Wind erosion has also severely affected the structure's exterior wood causing deep furrowing between earlywood and latewood cells. In general, the deterioration and fungi found at the site were similar to those found at the historic expedition huts on Ross Island, however, one species obtained is unique to the New Harbor site. This research expands our knowledge of the microbes colonizing wood brought into the polar environment and provides additional information on deterioration and decomposition processes occurring in Antarctica.

Novel species of fungi described in the present study include the following from Australia: Neoseptorioides eucalypti gen. & sp. nov. from Eucalyptus radiata leaves, Phytophthora gondwanensis from soil, Diaporthe tulliensis from rotted stem ends of Theobroma cacao fruit, Diaporthe vawdreyi from fruit rot of Psidium guajava, Magnaporthiopsis agrostidis from rotted roots of Agrostis stolonifera and Semifissispora natalis from Eucalyptus leaf litter. Furthermore, Neopestalotiopsis egyptiaca is described from Mangifera indica leaves (Egypt), Roussoella mexicana from Coffea arabica leaves (Mexico), Calonectria monticola from soil (Thailand), Hygrocybe jackmanii from littoral sand dunes (Canada), Lindgomyces madisonensis from submerged decorticated wood (USA), Neofabraea brasiliensis from Malus domestica (Brazil), Geastrum diosiae from litter (Argentina), Ganoderma wiiroense on angiosperms (Ghana), Arthrinium gutiae from the gut of a grasshopper (India), Pyrenochaeta telephoni from the screen of a mobile phone (India) and Xenoleptographium phialoconidium gen. & sp. nov. on exposed xylem tissues of Gmelina arborea (Indonesia). Several novelties are introduced from Spain, namely Psathyrella complutensis on loamy soil, Chlorophyllum lusitanicum on nitrified grasslands (incl. Chlorophyllum arizonicum comb. nov.), Aspergillus citocrescens from cave sediment and Lotinia verna gen. & sp. nov. from muddy soil. Novel foliicolous taxa from South Africa include Phyllosticta carissicola from Carissa macrocarpa, Pseudopyricularia hagahagae from Cyperaceae and Zeloasperisporium searsiae from Searsia chirindensis. Furthermore, Neophaeococcomyces is introduced as a novel genus, with two new combinations, N. aloes and N. catenatus. Several foliicolous novelties are recorded from La Réunion, France, namely Ochroconis pandanicola from Pandanus utilis, Neosulcatispora agaves gen. & sp. nov. from Agave vera-cruz, Pilidium eucalyptorum from Eucalyptus robusta, Strelitziana syzygii from Syzygium jambos (incl. Strelitzianaceae fam. nov.) and Pseudobeltrania ocoteae from Ocotea obtusata (Beltraniaceae emend.). Morphological and culture characteristics along with ITS DNA barcodes are provided for all taxa.
