Occurrence of Dickeya fangzhongdai Causing Soft Rot of Banxia (Pinellia ternata) in China

Banxia [Pinellia ternata (Thunb.) Breit., Araceae] is a perennial herbaceous plant, where the tuber is commonly used in traditional Chinese herbal medicine. In the summer of 2020, an outbreak of soft rot of Banxia was observed in Zhugentan Town (30°50'N, 112°91'E), Qianjiang City, Hubei Pr...

520 |a Banxia [Pinellia ternata (Thunb.) Breit., Araceae] is a perennial herbaceous plant, where the tuber is commonly used in traditional Chinese herbal medicine. In the summer of 2020, an outbreak of soft rot of Banxia was observed in Zhugentan Town (30°50'N, 112°91'E), Qianjiang City, Hubei Province, with about 56% percentage of infected plants. Symptomatic plants initially appeared with small water-soaked spots on leaves that progressed into extensive translucent spots when facing a light source. The bacteria further spread to the stems and tubers. Infected tubers appeared normal, but inner macerated inclusions exuded when touched. The whole plant was macerated and collapsed within a few days. Ten leaves with typical symptoms were obtained from a diseased field, by surface sterilizing in 75% ethanol for 30 s and 0.3% NaClO for 5 min, washing the tissue sections three times in sterile water. Small pieces of tissue (5 × 5 mm) were removed from lesion borders, plated on nutrient ager medium, and cultivated at 37 ℃ for 48 h. Five representative isolates were selected for further identification. Colonies were all smooth and transparent. In addition, these strains were Gram-negative, and had the ability to reduce D-arabinose, melibiose, galactose, raffinose, rhamnose, inositol, and mannitol, but not reduce 5-keto-D-gluconate, L-xylose, amygdalin, and sorbitol. Genomic DNA was extracted from isolate stain ZG5. The 16S rDNA gene, recombinase A (recA) gene, and DNA polymerase III subunits gamma and tau (dnaX) were amplified by PCR with the primers 27f/1492r (Weisburg et al. 1991), recF/recR (Waleron et al. 2002), and dnaXf/dnaXr (Sławiak et al. 2009), respectively. The PCR products were sequenced, then submitted to GenBank (GenBank MW332472, MW349833, MW349834, respectively). BLAST search showed that the sequences of 16S rDNA, recA, and dnaX respectively matched ≥99% with D. fangzhongdai strains DSM 101947 (CP025003), QZH3 (CP031507), and PA1 (CP020872). Pathogenicity tests were performed on 10 healthy, 3-month-old P. ternate plants. Five plants were injected with 20 μl of bacterial suspension (108 CFU/ml) of isolate ZG5, and other plants were injected with sterile water as a negative control. All tested plants were incubated at 28 ℃ and individually covered with a plastic bag. After 24 h, soft rot symptoms all appeared on the pathogen-inoculated leaves, whereas no symptoms on the control leaves. The pathogenicity test was repeated three times and obtained same results. Koch's postulates were fulfilled by reisolating D. fangzhongdai from inoculated plants. Meanwhile, PCR were performed on the reisolated bacteria as above described, and the pathogen was identified and confirmed as D. fangzhongdai. Here we report that D. fangzhongdai causes soft rot of P. ternata in China. The disease progressed very rapidly, and reduced the yield and quality of tubers. Thus, more research is needed to implement effective strategies to manage this disease
