Abstract

Fusarium basal rot (FBR), caused by the ascomycete fungus Fusarium oxysporum, is an economically important disease of onion worldwide. The most economical and effective way to manage FBR would be the use of FBR resistant onion cultivars. This study was carried out to develop a rapid screening method for resistant onion cultivars in seedling stage. We used the F. oxysporum 19-385 isolate, which causes damping-off in onion seedlings and basal rot in onion bulbs. We optimized broth incubation and medium composition for the production of inoculum, and determined conidial concentration for the preparation of F. oxysporum infected soil. Ten commercial cultivars of onion were evaluated the seedling survival rates and heights by infected soil inoculation methods. As a result, 'K-force' was the most resistant cultivar with 97.4% of relative seedling survival rate against the pathogen, whereas 'Sunpower' was the most susceptible cultivar with 20.0% of relative seedling survival rate.

Fusarium oxysporum에 의해 발생하는 시들음병(Fusarium basal rot)은 양파 재배에서 발생하는 주요 병해 중 하나로 전세계적으로 심각한 수량 손실을 일으키고 있다. 시들음병에 대한 저항성 품종을 사용하는 것은 시들음병 발생을 억제하고 화학 농약의 사용을 줄일 수 있는 가장 효율적인 방법으로 평가받고 있다. 본 연구는 양파 유묘를 활용한 효율적인 시들음병 저항성 검정법 개발을 위해 접종원 생산을 최적화하였고, 접종원 농도에 따른 병 발생 양상을 조사하여 이병토 제작을 위한 접종원의 최적 농도를 결정하였다. 위 실험 결과를 이용하여 1×105 conidia/g의 이병토에서 시판중인 양파 10개 품종의 시들음병 저항성 정도를 확인한 결과, '케이포스'가 97.4%의 상대적 생존율을 나타내어 저항성이 가장 강했고, '선파워'는 20.0%의 상대적 생존율을 나타내어 저항성이 가장 약했다. 본 실험결과는 양파 유묘단계에서 시들음병에 대한 저항성을 검정하는데 기여할 수 있을 것이며, 추후 실험 결과를 바탕으로 양파구에서의 저항성 검정이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
