Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Alternaria spp. Isolated from European Pears

In a recent survey of post-harvest rot pathogens in European pear in Southern Oregon, Alternaria spp. were frequently isolated from orchard samples of pear flowers and fruits. Morphological differences were observed within the isolated cultures. A preliminary NCBI BLAST search analysis using sequenc...

520 |a In a recent survey of post-harvest rot pathogens in European pear in Southern Oregon, Alternaria spp. were frequently isolated from orchard samples of pear flowers and fruits. Morphological differences were observed within the isolated cultures. A preliminary NCBI BLAST search analysis using sequences of the ATPase locus across 94 isolates of Alternaria spp. obtained from pear fruit rots revealed three major Alternaria sections: sect. Alternata, sect. Infectoriae, and sect. Ulocladioides. Thirteen isolates were selected based on their genetic and morphological diversity across three Alternaria sections and were subjected to multilocus phylogenetic analysis using sequences from plasma membrane ATPase, calmodulin, and Alt a1 loci. Within sect. Alternata, four Alternaria arborescens isolates and one A. destruens isolate were identified; within sections Infectoriae and Ulocladioides, one A. rosae isolate and two A. botrytis isolates were identified, respectively. The remaining five isolates could not be identified based on the available sequences for the three loci used in this study. In addition to the phylogenetic analysis, pathogenicity assays revealed differential responses to these isolates on four pear cultivars: Anjou, Bartlett, Comice, and Bosc. Inoculation of isolates within Alternaria sect. Alternata resulted in fruit lesions across all cultivars, with Bosc pear being significantly susceptible (P < 0.0001). Isolates within Alternaria sect. Ulocladioides caused rots on Anjou and Bosc pears, while isolates within Alternaria sect. Infectoriae developed rots on Bosc pear only. This study suggests that there is differential susceptibility of pear cultivars to Alternaria rots, and the severity of post-harvest rot depends on the type of Alternaria spp. and cultivar predominant in a region
