  • Variability in virulence of Calonectria ilicicola isolates form different hosts and geographic origin provides important information for breeding cultivars resistant to red crown rot. A wide range in virulence for 25 isolates of C. ilicicola from soybean and peanut was observed on six soybean cultivars. Soybean isolates were pathogenic on soybean although some were less virulent. Virulence of isolates was not affected greatly by cultivar and relatively consistent regardless of virulence level. Soybean isolates were more virulent on soybean than were peanut isolates. When virulence of two soybean and tow peanut isolates was compared between laboratory and greenhouse tests, it was stable across a range of cultivars. Mycelial growth of isolates from either soybean or peanut was reduced significantly on potato dextrose chlorate showed significant reduction of fungal growth than isolates from peanut did although their growth on potato dextrose agar was not significantly different. Evidence for physiologic specialization was not recognized in this system. However, the findings that soybean isolates of C. ilicicola were more virulent on soybean and reduction of fungal growth on potato dextrose chlorate than were peanut isolates suggest that host specialization may exist in this fugus.

  • Respiratory viruses can induce acute respiratory disease. Clinical symptoms and manifestations are dependent on interactions between the virus and host immune system. Dendritic cells (DCs), along with alveolar macrophages, constitute the first line of sentinel cells in the innate immune response against respiratory viral infection. DCs play an essential role in regulating the immune response by bridging innate and adaptive immunity. In the steady state, lung DCs can be subdivided into $CD103^+$ conventional DCs (cDCs), $CD11b^+$ cDCs, and plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs). In the inflammatory state, like a respiratory viral infection, monocyte-derived DCs (moDCs) are recruited to the lung. In inflammatory lung, discrimination between moDCs and $CD11b^+$ DCs in the inflamed lung has been a critical challenge in understanding their role in the antiviral response. In particular, $CD103^+$ cDCs migrate from the intraepithelial base to the draining mediastinal lymph nodes to primarily induce the $CD8^+$ T cell response against the invading virus. Lymphoid $CD8{\alpha}^+$ cDCs, which have a developmental relationship with $CD103^+$ cDCs, also play an important role in viral antigen presentation. Moreover, pDCs have been reported to promote an antiviral response by inducing type I interferon production rather than adaptive immunity. However, the role of these cells in respiratory infections remains unclear. These different DC subsets have functional specialization against respiratory viral infection. Under certain viral infection, contextually controlling the balance of these specialized DC subsets is important for an effective immune response and maintenance of homeostasis.

  • Individualities of precious health mushroom called Zhenghonggu@ from respective protections scattered among all main mountains of Fujian China were collected and recognized locally, then compared with Russula griseocarnosa. Their internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region (ITS1, ITS2 and 5.8S rDNA) of the nuclear rDNA were amplified, AMOVA analyzed, nested clade analyzed and then compared with the ITS sequences of relative Russula species from other regions of China to confirm the taxonomic status of Zhenghonggu$^@$ and its population structure. Total 23 haplotypes from different protections of Fujian can be clustered into three clades similar to the three lineages of Dahongjun$^@$ from southeastern China reported by Li et al. The geographic distribution characteristic of these three phylogeny clades may be closely coupled with the vegetation regionalization and/or the differences of coenosium construction of Fagaceae that is the host of Russula griseocarnosa. The correlation of taxonomy, phylogeny and geographical distribution of Russula are discussed.

  • We present a list of the beetle species associated with the oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus Fr. in the birch forest of Onon-Balj National Park in Mongolia. A total of 21 species in seven families were found in this fungus, including fungivorous species: Litargus japonicus Reitter and Mycetophagus antennatus (Reitter) (Mycetophagidae), Pseudamblyopus similis (Lewis) (Erotylidae), and Lordithon sp. (Staphylinidae) etc. Both adult and larval forms are presented in the checklist along with the type of fungal association, of which approximately 52 percent are obligate mycetobionts. The main trends of the ecological and trophic specialization of the mycetophilic beetles are discussed.

  • 2009년 9월에 전북 완주군 상관면 조경포장에 재배중인 구절초의 줄기와 지제부위가 수침상으로 무르고 썩으면서 암갈색으로 시들어 말라 죽었다. 병반부와 지제부위의 토양 표면에 흰색의 균사가 자라고 갈색의 구형 또는 부정형의 균핵이 형성되었다. 균사의 생육적온은 $25{\sim}30^{\circ}C$이었으며, 균사의 폭은 4-9 ${\mu}m$이었고, 균핵의 크기는 0.8-3.5(평균 1.8) mm이었다. 균사특유의 clamp connection이 관찰되었다. 분리한 균은 구절초에 대한 실험결과 병원성이 인정되었다. 구절초에 발생한 병징과 분리균의 균학적 특징 및 병원성을 검정한 결과, 이 병을 Sclerotium rolfsii에 의한 구절초 흰비단병으로 명명하고자 한다.

  • The genus Hyaloperonospora (Peronosporaceae; Oomycota) is an obligate biotrophic group that causes downy mildew disease on the Brassicaceae and allied families of Brassicales, including many economically relevant crops, such as broccoli, cabbage, radish, rape, and wasabi. To investigate the diversity of Hyaloperonospora species in northeast Asia, we performed a morphological analysis for the dried herbarium specimens collected in Korea, along with molecular phylogenetic inferences based on internal transcribed spacer rDNA and cox2 mtDNA sequences. It was confirmed that 14 species of Hyaloperonospora exist in Korea. Of these, three species, previously classified under the genus Peronospora, were combined to Hyaloperonospora: H. arabidis-glabrae comb. nov. (ex Arabis glabra), H. nasturtii-montani comb. nov. (ex Rorippa indica), and H. nasturtii-palustris comb. nov. (ex Rorippa palustris). In addition, finding two potentially new species specific to northeast Asian plants is noteworthy in support of the view that the species abundance of Hyaloperonospora has been underestimated hitherto.

  • 여러가지 기주에서 유쾌한 Calonectria ilicicola 균주의 병원성에 대한 형태적, 유전적 표지를 검출하기 위하여 균사생장, 균핵, 자낭각 그리고 dsRNA를 조사하였다. 시험된 모든 균주에서 병원성, 균핵수, 자낭각수 와 균사생장 등의 다양한 변이가 관찰되었으나 dsRNA는 검출되지 않았다. 균의 병원성은 균핵과 자낭각 생산과 각각 정의 상관관계가 있었으나, 균사 생장은 자낭각의 생산과 부의 상관관계를 보여 주었다. 땅콩에서 유래한 균주보다 콩에서 유래한 균주가 기주인 콩에 더 강한 병원성을 보였으며 균핵과 자낭각의 생산도 더 많았다. 이와 같은 결과로 볼 때 C. ilicicla의 균핵과 자낭각 생산력은 inoculum potential의 구성요소로써 작용하며, 이중 균의 자낭각 생산력은 병원성과 기주 분화를 나타내는데 유용한 표지로써 이용될 수 있을 것이다.
