Plasmodiophora brassicae is a major disease threat for Brassica oil and vegetable crop production worldwide. The causal agent is a Plasmodiophorid, which are obligate biotrophic plant-pathogenic protists in the Rhizarian kingdom. Although the Plasmodiophorids include other important agricultural pathogens such as Polymyxa betae, Spongospora subterranea, their biology remains poorly understood due to their intracellular biotrophic life style. I will present the assembled and annotated genome of P. brassicae, with insights into developmental stage-specific. We provide the first genomic data for pathogenic Rhizaria. The exploitation of the life stage specific transcripts will shed light in the understanding of the life cycle at a molecular basis, which will in the long run help to understand and control club root disease. Our data also fill an important gap for the understanding of the eukaryotic tree of life, since this is only the third genome of the eukaryotic kingdom of Rhizaria.

흰녹가루병균류(난균류)는 인공배양이 불가능한 순활물 병원균이다. 이들은 많은 속씨식물들에서 흰녹가루병을 일으키는데, 경제적으로 중요한 기주식물로는 해바라기, 와사비, 갓, 유채, 무, 배추, 시금치 등이 있다. 최근에 분자분석 방법과 분류학적으로 유용한 형태적 특징들이 제안되면서, 흰녹가루병균류의 다양성, 진화, 계통분류에 대한 연구에 큰 진척이 있었다. 본 논문은 국내에 덜 알려진 흰녹가루병 균류를 소개하고 최근의 연구성과에 대하여 고찰하였다.

The family Peronosporaceae, an obligate biotrophic group of Oomycota, causes downy mildew disease on many cultivated and ornamental plants such as beet, cucumber, grape, onion, rose, spinach, and sunflower. To investigate the diversity of Peronosporaceae species in Korea, we performed morphological analysis for dried plant herbariums with downy mildew infections by two largest genera, Peronospora and Plasmopara. As a result, it was confirmed that there are five species of Peronospora and two species of Plasmopara, which have been so far unrecorded in Korea, as well as rarely known in the world; Pl. angustiterminalis (ex Xanthium strumarium), Pl. siegesbeckiae (ex Siegesbeckia glabrescens), P. chenopodii-ambrosioidis (ex Chenopodium ambrosioides), P. chenopodii-ficifolii (ex Chenopodium ficifolium), P. clinopodii (ex Clinopodium cf. vulgare), P. elsholtziae (ex Elsholtzia ciliata), and P. lathyrina (ex Lathyrus japonicus). In addition, their phylogenetic relationship was inferred by molecular sequence analysis of ITS, LSU rDNA, and cox2 mtDNA. By rediscovering the seven missing species and barcoding their DNA sequences, this study provides valuable insights into the diversity and evolutionary studies of downy mildew pathogens.

In plant pathology there is an increasing necessity for improved cytological techniques as basis for the localization of cellular substances within the dynamic fine structure of the host-(plant)-pathogen-interaction. Low temperature (LT) preparation techniques (shock freezing, freeze substitution, LT embedding) are now successfully applied in plant pathology. They are regarded as important tools to stabilize the dynamic plant-pathogen-interaction as it exists under physiological conditions. - The main advantage of LT techniques versus conventional chemical fixation is seen in the maintenance of the hydration shell of molecules and macromolecular structures. This results in an improved fine structural preservation and in a superior retention of the antigenicity of proteins. - A well defined ultrastructure of small, fungal organisms and large biological samples such as plant material and as well as the plant-pathogen (fungus) infection sites are presented. The mesophyll tissue of Arabidopsis thaliana is characterized by homogeneously structured cytoplasm closely attached to the cell wall. From analyses of the compatible interaction between Erysiphe graminis f. sp. hordei on barley (Hordeum vulgare), various steps in the infection sequence can be identified. Infection sites of powdery mildew on primary leaves of barley are analysed with regard to the fine structural preservation of the haustoria. The presentation s focussed on the ultrastructure of the extrahaustorial matrix and the extrahaustorial membrane. - The integration of improved cellular preservation with a molecular analysis of the infected host cell is achieved by the application of secondary probing techniques, i.e. immunocytochemistry. Recent data on the characterization of freeze substituted powdery mildew and urst infected plant tissue by immunogold methodology are described with special emphasis on the localization of THRGP-like (threonine-hydrxyproline-rich glycoprotein) epitopes. Infection sites of powdery mildew on barley, stem rust as well as leaf rust (Puccinia recondita) on primary leaves of wheat were probed with a polyclonal antiserum to maize THRGP. Cross-reactivity with the anti-THRGP antiserum was observed over the extrahaustorial matrix of the both compatible and incompatible plant-pathogen interactions. The highly localized accumulation of THRGP-like epitopes at the extrahaustorial host-pathogen interface suggests the involvement of structural, interfacial proteins during the infection of monocotyledonous plants by obligate, biotrophic fungi.

Plasmodiophora brassicae는 십자화과 작물에 뿌리혹병을 일으키는 주요 병원균이다. 본 연구에서는 뿌리혹병균의 신속 정확한 검출을 위해서 뿌리혹병균에 대한 새로운 종 특이적 프라이머를 개발하고자 하였다. 새롭게 개발된 프라이머들은 10종의 주요 토양병원균을 비롯하여 기주인 배추 DNA와는 반응하지 않고 P. brassicae와만 반응하는 특이성을 갖고 있었다. 그 가운데 Primer ITS1-1/1-2는 민감도 검정 결과, 10 spores/ml의 DNA까지 검출이 가능함으로써, first round PCR용임에도 불구하고 이전의 검출법 보다 감도가 높고 정확한 결과를 얻었다. Quantitative real-time PCR로 분석할 경우에는 더 적은 수의 포자까지 안정적으로 검출해 낼 수 있어 새로운 P. brassicae 종 특이적 프라이머로서의 유용성을 확인할 수 있었다.
