Book Synopsis Ecology and Population Biology of Botrytis Cinerea on Red Raspberry and Other Small Fruit Hosts in the Pacific Northwest by : Olga Kozhar
Download or read book Ecology and Population Biology of Botrytis Cinerea on Red Raspberry and Other Small Fruit Hosts in the Pacific Northwest written by Olga Kozhar and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Botrytis cinerea is the causal agent of gray mold of more than 1,400 plant host species. The disease can lead to substantial yield losses, especially of red raspberry and other small fruit crops in the US Pacific Northwest (PNW) and worldwide. Effectiveness of gray mold management in red raspberry remains limited due to incomplete understanding of the disease cycle. The bloom period of red raspberry is considered a critical window for B. cinerea colonization of this host, but the role of flowers in this disease remains unclear. The first objective of this research was to determine the infection pathways of B. cinerea on red raspberry under field conditions. Colonization incidence of red raspberry at bloom was limited, but significantly increased with fruit development and peaked on mature fruit. As fruit developed, different morphological parts became colonized by the fungus, suggesting multiple infection events throughout the season.In the PNW, gray mold management programs on raspberry are based on protecting plants with fungicides throughout the production season, starting at bloom. It is, however, unknown if full-season fungicide programs are required to control B. cinerea effectively on raspberry. The second objective of this research was to study the effect of fungicide applications on B. cinerea colonization of raspberry in relation to plant development and test the floral infection hypothesis with genetic markers. Fungicide applications did not prevent or reduce flower colonization but significantly decreased fruit colonization. Pathogen genotypic diversity increased throughout the season and different genotypes colonized flowers, green and ripe fruit within raspberry inflorescence, suggesting that multiple fungal strains can colonize fruit at different developmental stages.In the PNW, several small fruit hosts are grown in close proximity, but nothing is known about B. cinerea population biology on these hosts in this region. The third objective of this research was to investigate how evolutionary forces shape pathogen population structure on small fruit in the PNW. No association of B. cinerea with host was found, but populations were geographically differentiated at regional and farm scales, suggesting restricted gene flow. Evidence for local adaptation due to selection was detected with fungicide resistance markers.

These topics are examined in three sections: 1. Genetics, Breeding and Omics - covering genetic resources, breeding, metabolomics, transcriptomics, and genetic transformation of strawberry. 2. Cultivation Systems and Propagation - discusses plant architecture, replanting problems and plant propagation techniques. 3. Disease and Stress Management - deals with traditional and emerging fungal diseases, their diagnosis and modern biocontrol strategies, and biotechnological interventions for dealing with the challenges of climate change. Strawberry: Growth, Development and Diseases is written by an international team of specialists, using figures and tables to make the subject comprehensible and informative. It is an essential resource for academics and industry workers involved in strawberry research and development, and all those interested in the commercial cultivation of strawberries.

This book was released on 2022-10-28 with total page 543 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book entitled, “Re-visiting the Rhizosphere Eco-system for Agricultural Sustainability” written by experts in the field, provides a comprehensive and consolidated state-of art overview of various aspects of rhizosphere biology, ecology and functioning. The role of rhizosphere microbial diversity in enhancing plant health and plant-microbe beneficial symbioses is discussed. Main topics include the diversity of plant-associated microbes in the rhizosphere, below-ground communication among the plant, soil, insects and microbes, rhizosphere ecosystem functioning, rhizosphere engineering, recruitment of microorganisms in the rhizosphere, mycorrhizal fungal symbiosis, positive interaction of the plants with the beneficial soil microorganisms for inducing the plant growth, conferring abiotic and biotic stress tolerance and modulating several pathways of the plants for the proper establishment and revitalization in the degraded and contaminated soils or negative likes the host-pathogen interactions leading to the disease development in plants. Further chapters focus on the role of signaling during the different stages of the plant-microbe coexistence, in symbiotic or pathogenic relationships, in quorum sensing, microbial signaling and cross-talk, bio-film formation, and antimicrobial peptides. The book also discusses the application of microbes in biodegradation of xenobiotic contaminants, bioremediation of heavy metals, sustainable agriculture and soil health, biological control of insect pests and plant pathogens, and the latest tools of omics which offer pioneering approaches to the exploration of microbial structure and function, secretome, holobiome, below-ground interaction, and microbial cooperation for sustainable food production and enhanced resource acquisition. Descriptions of cutting-edge techniques and novel approaches make this book unique in the area of rhizosphere biology. This is a useful reading material for researchers and students of microbiology, agriculture, ecology, and rhizosphser studies.

This book was released on 2019-04-17 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With global populations expected to exceed 9.2 billion by 2050 and available land and water resources devoted to crop production dwindling, we face significant challenges to secure global food security. Only 12 plant species feed 80% of the world’s population, with just three crop species (wheat, rice and maize) accounting for food consumed by 50% of the global population. Annual losses to crop pests and pathogens are significant, thought to be equivalent to that required to feed a billion people, at a time when crop productivity has plateaued. With pesticide applications becoming increasingly unfeasible on cost, efficacy and environmental grounds, there is growing interest in exploiting plant resistance and tolerance traits for crop protection. Indeed, mankind has been selectively breeding plants for desirable traits for thousands of years. However, resistance and tolerance traits have not always been those most desired, and in many cases have been inadvertently lost during the domestication process: crops have been effectively ‘disarmed by domestication’. Moreover, mechanistic understanding of how resistance and tolerance traits operate is often incomplete, which makes identifying the right combination for crop protection difficult. We aimed to address this Research Topic by inviting authors to contribute their knowledge of appropriate resistance and tolerance traits, explore what is known about durability and breakdown of defensive traits and, finally, asking what are the prospects for exploiting these traits for crop protection. The research topic summarised in this book addresses some of the most important issues in the future sustainability of global crop production.
