Genetic diversity and pathogenicity of cucurbit-associated Acidovorax
2011
Overview
Bacterial fruit blotch of cucurbits is a destructive disease caused by Acidovorax avenae subsp. citrulli, which is a typical seedborne pathogen. In seed health testing for this disease, we have detected many strains of Acidovorax with some differences from A. avenae subsp. citrulli. Their 16S rRNA sequences were divided into six types. The most common sequence was completely consistent with that of A. avenae subsp. avenae originally isolated from rice. The other sequences were over 99% similar but not identical to those of A. avenae subsp. avenae and A. avenae subsp. citrulli. Some commercialized antibodies against A. avenae subsp. citrulli reacted with several of these strains. Some of these strains incited yellow spots or brownish water-soaked lesions mainly on young true leaves of cucumber and squash after spray inoculation. Histological observations showed that these strains entered the leaf tissues of cucurbit plants through stomata and multiplied in the intercellular spaces of parenchymatous tissues as well as in the vascular tissues. The amount of bacterial multiplication and spread in the tissues differed among the strains, presumably reflecting their ability to induce symptoms. These isolated strains are therefore different from A. avenae subsp. citrulli, and their potential threat to the cultivation of cucurbits is lower than that of A. avenae subsp. citrulli.
