Journal Article
Isolation of Pseudomonas syringae pv. Tomato strains causing bacterial speck disease of tomato and marker-based monitoring for their virulence
2023
Overview
Background
The bacterial speck disease of tomato caused by a bacterial pathogen
Pseudomonas syringae
pv.
tomato
is a most important disease causing severe crop losses.
Methods and results
Present study was conducted to investigate and characterize the population diversity of
P. syringae
pv.
tomato
pathogen isolated from infected tomato plants from various regions of Egypt. Significant variation among the isolates was observed which demonstrated considerable virulence. All isolates were pathogenic and the CFU population recovered from inoculate tomato leaves by isolate Pst-2 was higher than other isolates. Genetic disparity among the isolates was investigated by PCR analysis by amplifying
hrp
Z gene using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP), and inter-simple sequence repeats (ISSR) markers. The amplified products for ITS1 were found to have 810 bp length whereas 536 bp length was observed for
hrp
Z gene using primer pairs (1406-f/23S-r) and (MM5-F, MM5-R) respectively. The restriction analysis of amplified regions “ITS” and
hrpZ
by using 5 and 4 endonucleases respectively demonstrated slight variation among the bacterial isolates. The results of RAPD, ISSR and SRAP showed higher polymorphism (60.52%) within the isolates which may assist for successful characterization by unique and specific markers based on geographical distribution, origin and virulence intensity.
Conclusion
The results of present study suggested that the use of molecular approach may provide successful and valuable information to differentiate and classify
P. syringae
pv.
tomato
strains in future for the detection and confirmation of pathogenicity.
