520 |a Panicle hydrangea (Hydrangea paniculata), belonging to the Saxifragaceae family (Wu et al. 2001), is an ornamental flowering plant which is native to China and Japan. In July 2021, brown leaf spots (diameter ranged from 3 to 5 mm) were observed on panicle hydrangea plants in a 0.1 ha field of Northeast Agriculture University (126.72°E, 45.74°N), Heilongjiang Province. The incidence was approximately 30%. Small circular or irregular brown spots initially appeared on the older leaves, and these lesions gradually expanded with time. In some serious cases, lesions joint together and caused leaf wilting. To identify the causal agent, ten symptomatic leaves from different panicle hydrangea plants were collected, and surface sterilized with 70% ethanol for 30 s, followed by 0.5% NaClO treatment for 4 min, and then rinsed with sterile water three times. Tissues between healthy and necrotic area were cut into 5×5 mm pieces after air drying on sterile filter paper. The pieces were placed on potato dextrose agar (PDA) amended with streptomycin sulfate (50 mg/liter) and incubated at 25°C for 5 days. Fifteen pure isolates were obtained using the hyphal tip technique and cultured on PDA for 7 days at 25°C for morphological and molecular identification. Colonies of all isolates were dark olivaceous with white margin. Conidiophores were septate, singly arising, and light brown, with a size range of 10.2-60.1 × 1.4-5.6 µm (n=50). Conidia were obclavate to obpyriform, brown to dark brown, and in a size range of 15.0-25.2 × 5.1-15.3 µm (n=50). To further identify these isolates, four different genomic DNA regions including ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), RNA polymerase II second largest subunit (rpb2), and histone 3 (HIS3) were amplified and sequenced with primers ITS1/ITS4 (White et al. 1990), gpd1/gpd2 (Berbee et al. 1999), RPB2-5F2/RPB2-7R (Sung et al. 2007), and H3-1a/H3-1b (Xu et al. 2022) for three representative isolates (DXQ2-2, DXQ2-3, and DXQ2-4), respectively. The sequences of ITS, GADPH, rpb2, and HIS3 for these three isolates were identical and only sequences of DXQ2-2 were deposited in GenBank (GenBank accession nos. OL305828, OL333601, OL333602, and OL436242). These sequences showed 100%, 100%, 100%, and 99.61% identity with A. tenuissima BJ-CX-1 (GenBank accession nos. MK683974, MK683784, MK684069, and MK683879), respectively. Based on morphological features and DNA sequences analyses, these isolates were identified as Alternaria tenuissima (Simmons 2007). To fulfill Koch's postulates, ten healthy and surface disinfected leaves of one panicle hydrangea plant grown in pot were sprayed with a conidial suspension (1×106 conidia/mL) of isolate DXQ2-2. Meanwhile, ten surface disinfected leaves of another panicle hydrangea plant grown in pot sprayed with sterilize water served as the control. All plants were maintained in a greenhouse at 25℃ and 70% relative humidity. Five days after inoculation, leaves inoculated with conidial suspension showed leaf spot symptoms that were similar to those observed in the field, whereas no symptom was observed on the control leaves. The experiment was conducted twice. The Alternaria tenuissima isolate was successfully re-isolated from the symptomatic leaves and confirmed based on above morphological and molecular methods. To our knowledge, this is the first report of leaf spot on panicle hydrangea caused by A. tenuissima. Leaf spot has a negative effect on the aesthetic value of panicle hydrangea, so further investigation and management is needed to control this disease
