ABSTRACTThe incidence and the levels of yield loss caused by the white mold of soybean (caused by the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum) have increased in areas of higher altitude at Cerrado and Southern Brazil, causing yield losses of up to 60%. The aim of this study was to select saprobic fungi with the potential to control the white mold of soybean. First, in vitroantagonism screening was carried out to test eight saprobic fungi against S. sclerotiorum. Assessment of S. sclerotiorum mycelial growth was done at four and seven days after its placement on the culture medium. The isolate showing greatest antagonistic effect in all tests/assessments was Myrothecium sp. An in vivo experiment was conducted in a greenhouse and growth chamber, where plants previously treated with eight saprobic fungi were artificially inoculated with S. sclerotiorum. The fungal culture medium (potato-dextrose) and the commercial resistance inducer acibenzolar-S-methyl were used as controls. In the in vivotests, severity of the white mold was assessed at 8, 14 and 21 days after inoculation. The highest reduction percentage in the lesion length was observed for the treatment with Myrothecium sp. (70%), which has the greater potential to be used as biocontrol agent of soybean under the conditions of this experiment.

Abstract: The objective of this work was to evaluate, in vitro and in vivo, the potential of Trichoderma spp. strains to control Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in soybeans (Glycine max) and to perform the molecular identification of the best perfoming strains. The effect of 120 strains of Trichoderma spp. on the viability of S. sclerotiorum sclerotia was evaluated in vitro through immersion in suspension of conidia from the antagonists and plating in culture medium. The best performing strains were evaluated in vivo, in a greenhouse, for control of the pathogen inoculated on 'Pintado' soybean seeds and plants. Of the 120 strains tested in vitro, 22 strains of Trichoderma spp. caused 100% inhibition of sclerotia germination. In the greenhouse, five strains inhibited the negative effect of the pathogen on seed germination and two strains increased in up to 67% plant dry matter. The best performing strains were identified as T. koningiopsis (3 strains), T. asperelloides (3), T. atroviride (2), and T. virens (1). Trichoderma strains are able to protect soybean plants from the harmful effect of S. sclerotiorum and, at the same time, they can promote the growth of the aerial part in greenhouse conditions.

O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar o potencial de bactérias, na promoção de crescimento, produção de compostos de defesa e no biocontrole do mofo branco em folhas destacadas de duas cultivares de soja. Os ensaios foram realizados com as bactérias antagonistas FIT09 (Bacillus cereus) e FIT62 (B. thuringensis), do fungo Sclerotinia sclerotiorum e com as cultivares de soja M6210 IPRO e Brasmax Garra IPRO. Nos ensaios in vivo foram avaliados a capacidade das bactérias na promoção do crescimento de plantas de soja e na constituição dos compostos secundários produzidos pelas plantas oriundas de sementes microbiolizadas com suspensões bacterianas. Além disso, os ensaios de biocontrole do mofo branco, foram realizados com folhas destacadas em estádio V3, as quais foram pulverizadas com as suspensões das bactérias FIT09 e FIT62. As bactérias FIT09 e FIT62 apresentaram compatibilidade com B. japonicum e no ensaio de biocontrole com folhas destacadas, verificou-se que a FIT 09 reduziu o diâmetro das lesões necróticas causadas por S. sclerotiorum em ambas cultivares de soja avaliadas em teste de folhas destacadas. No ensaio de promoção de crescimento, as bactérias aumentaram o poder germinativo na cultivar M6210 IPRO. Para a avaliação da análise fitoquímica, as bactérias auxiliaram positivamente na produção dos compostos relacionados ao sistema de defesa. Palavras-chave: Metabólitos Secundários. Fitoquímica.

Bacillus, Glycine max   Abstract The present study aimed to evaluate the potential of bacteria, in the promotion of growth, production of compounds of defens, and in the biocontrol of white mold in detached leaves of two soybean cultivars. The tests were performed with the antagonist bacteria FIT09 (Bacillus cereus) and FIT62 (B. thuringensis), with the fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and with the soybean cultivars M6210 IPRO and Brasmax Garra IPRO. In vivo tests evaluated the capacity of bacteria to promote the growth of soybean plants and the constitution of secondary compounds produced by plants from microbiolized seeds with bacterial suspensions. In addition,  white mold biocontrol bioassays were carried out with detached leaves in stage V3 and they were sprayed with suspensions of the bacteria FIT09 and FIT62.The bacteria FIT09 and FIT62 were compatible with B. japonicum and in the biocontrol assay with detached leaves, it was found that FIT09 promoted superior control of 70% against the disease in both cultivars, however the disease did not manifest in the assay in plants. In the growth promotion test, the bacteria increased the germinative power in cultivar M6210 IPRO, for the assessment of fresh and dry mass there were no differences and for phytochemical analysis, the bacteria positively helped in the production of compounds related to the defense system.   Keywords: Secondary Metabolites.

Crucial Part

Granulocyte apoptosis is a crucial part of the successful resolution of inflammation. In vitro results show that activation of NF-κB (nuclear factor κB) in granulocytes is a survival mechanism. NF-κB inhibitors increase the rate of constitutive apoptosis in neutrophils and eosinophils and cause these cells to respond to the pro-apoptotic effects of TNF-α (tumour necrosis factor-α). Results from both in vivo and in vitro experiments suggest that there are at least two important waves of NF-κB activation in inflammatory loci, which increase the expression of COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2), itself an NF-κB controlled gene. The first wave causes the production of inflammatory mediators such as PGE2 (prostaglandin E2), allowing the establishment of inflammation. The second wave causes the synthesis of PGD2 and its metabolites that induce granulocyte apoptosis by inhibiting NF-κB activation. These metabolites may therefore be important physiological mediators controlling the resolution of inflammation. Although NF-κB is an important target for anti-inflammatory therapy, the timing of inhibition in vivo may be crucial, to ensure that production of PGD2 and its sequential metabolites can occur.

Apoptotic Effects

Combination therapy of bortezomib with other chemotherapeutics is an emerging treatment strategy. Since both curcumin and bortezomib inhibit NF-κB, we tested the effects of their combination on leukemia cells. To improve potency, a novel Mannich-type curcumin derivative, C-150, was synthesized. Curcumin and its analogue showed potent antiproliferative and apoptotic effects on the human leukemia cell line, HL60, with different potency but similar additive properties with bortezomib. Additive antiproliferative effects were correlated well with LPS-induced NF-κB inhibition results. Gene expression data on cell cycle and apoptosis related genes, obtained by high-throughput QPCR, showed that curcumin and its analogue act through similar signaling pathways. In correlation with in vitro results similar additive effect could be obsereved in SCID mice inoculated systemically with HL60 cells. C-150 in a liposomal formulation given intravenously in combination with bortezomib was more efficient than either of the drugs alone. As our novel curcumin analogue exerted anticancer effects in leukemic cells at submicromolar concentration in vitro and at 3 mg/kg dose in vivo, which was potentiated by bortezomib, it holds a great promise as a future therapeutic agent in the treatment of leukemia alone or in combination.
