Abstract Pathogenesis related (PR) genes of rice are among the most important defense genes in the interaction of rice with pathogens. In this study, the role of NH-1, several PR genes, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), and lipoxygenase in the defense responses of rice against Rhizoctonia solani, the causal agent of rice sheath blight disease, was evaluated. The Tarom and Khazar cultivars (cvs), as resistant and susceptible genotypes, respectively, were used. The expression rate of defense genes in two-week-old seedlings inoculated with a virulent isolate of R. solani AG-I-1 A was investigated. The lesions in the Tarom cv were less than half the size of those on the Khazar cv. The expression scripts of the genes were calculated by quantative Real-Time PCR (RT-PCR). Results showed that the expression rate of all genes in the resistant cultivar was higher than that of the susceptible genotype, post inoculation. Analysis of data by the t-Student test also indicated significant differences in the expression level of the genes between Khazar and Tarom. The results of this study suggest that the investigated genes are involved in the resistance responses of rice against the sheath blight agent. For the first time, the induction of PR-5, PR-9, PR-10, PR-12, PR-13, and NH-1 was observed in this study in the resistant and susceptible Iranian cultivars of rice following attacks by R. solani.

SUMMARYIncorporation of rice straw into soil has traditionally been an important method of recycling nutrients and improving soil productivity. Currently, although the effects of straw incorporation on disease severity have been documented, the dynamics of the pathogen in soil after straw incorporation are poorly understood. In the present study, rice straw with various proportions of diseased straw was incorporated at three separate locations (SuPu town, SuSong County and FengYang County) in Anhui province, China. The pathogen dynamics in paddy soil and disease severity of sheath blight during two continuous years from April 2010 to April 2012 were investigated. For all three locations, the amount of pathogen inoculum that persisted in the soil increased with increases in the proportion of diseased straw incorporated. Incorporation of 0·3 and 0·5 diseased straw into soil increased the amount of pathogen inoculum in the soil significantly, whereas incorporation of 0·1 diseased straw into soil had no significant effect on the pathogen inoculum compared with the control (no straw incorporated) or disease severity. Incorporation of healthy rice straw (no disease) resulted in a significant decrease in disease severity, whereas proportions of 0·3 and 0·5 diseased straw resulted in a significant increase of disease severity compared with the control. These results suggested that incorporation of diseased straw enhanced pathogen numbers in soil during the whole decomposition period and increased disease severity. To avoid soil-borne disease accumulation, severely diseased straw should be removed from the field or pre-treated before incorporation.

ABSTRACT Foliar blight and death of signalgrass (Urochloa spp.) pastures are caused by the Rhizoctonia solani fungus. This study aimed at determining which pathogens from the Rhizoctonia species complex are associated with leaf and sheath blight in Urochloa and rice, in the Colombian Llanos. Sympatric areas of Urochloa pastures adjacent to rice cropping areas were sampled using a linear transect system. The pathogens were identified using morphological traits, molecular detection based on specific primers and sequencing of the ITS-5.8S rDNA region. R. solani AG-1 IA predominated as the pathogen associated with foliar blight in all samples from U. brizantha cv. 'Toledo' and hybrid Urochloa cv. 'Mulato'. Besides R. solani AG-1 IA (18 % of the samples), Rhizoctonia oryzae-sativae (71 %) and Sclerotium hydrophilum (11 %) were also detected. In the cross-pathogenicity test, the R. solani AG-1 IA fungus was the most aggressive to Urochloa, while R. oryzae-sativae produced very mild infection symptoms. This is the first report of R. oryzae-sativae and S. hydrophilum associated with the complex of rice sheath blight diseases in Colombia.
