First report of rice bacterial leaf blight disease caused by Pantoea ananatis in the United States

In August 2021, bacterial leaf blight-like symptoms were observed on 14 out of 570 rice genotypes (Oryza sativa) in research field plots of global rice germplasm grown in Arkansas (eXtra Figure S1. A & B). The disease was characterized by spreading lesions on leaves, panicle sterility and reduce...

520 |a In August 2021, bacterial leaf blight-like symptoms were observed on 14 out of 570 rice genotypes (Oryza sativa) in research field plots of global rice germplasm grown in Arkansas (eXtra Figure S1. A & B). The disease was characterized by spreading lesions on leaves, panicle sterility and reduced yield in highly susceptible, mature rice germplasm. No spread of disease to nearby plants was observed. Isolations were performed at Colorado State University, where soakates from symptomatic leaves were spread onto nutrient agar. After 72 h at 28°C, uniform, distinct, yellow-colored bacterial colonies were observed. To screen for the presence of common rice bacterial pathogens, PCR amplification directly from colonies or from DNA isolated from symptomatic field-collected leaves was performed. Primers specific for Xanthomonas oryzae pvs. oryzae and oryzicola (Lang et al., 2010), Burkholderia glumae (Echeverri-Rico et al., 2021), and Pseudomonas fuscovaginae (Ash et al., 2014) did not amplify indicating these organisms were not present. Sequencing of 16S rRNA gene (Weisburg et al., 1991) amplicons suggested the bacteria belonged to the genera Pantoea and Sphingomonas (NCBI accession no. OP683332 and OP683333, respectively). Amplicons resulting from primers specific to the gyrB gene region of P. ananatis (Kini et al., 2021) were sequenced and the fragment was compared to the P. ananatis PA13 reference genome using a BLAST analysis. One candidate (AR358) showed 100% identity with the P. ananatis gyrB region. Primers specific for Sphingomonas sp. (Bangratz et al., 2020) confirmed the second candidate (AR359) as a Sphingomonas sp. The identity of P. ananatis was confirmed by the Plant Pathogen Confirmatory Diagnostics Laboratory (Beltsville, MD, USA). To determine pathogenicity, leaves from 7-day-old seedlings of rice (Oryza sativa) cultivar Kitaake were scissor-clip inoculated (Kauffman et al., 1973) with four different treatments and compared to control leaves inoculated with sterile water. Treatments for the experiment consisted of bacterial suspensions (108 CFU/ml) of the two candidate organisms, P. ananatis (strain AR358) or Sphingomonas sp. (strain AR359), individually or in a 1:1 ratio of P. ananatis:Sphingomonas sp., or soakate from infected field tissue. Lesions similar to those observed in the field were only detected on leaves inoculated with P. ananatis or infected field tissue soakate at 7-days post-inoculation (eXtra Figure S1. C). Bacteria were recovered from the leaves of the artificially inoculated seedlings from three treatments (P. ananatis, P. ananatis:Sphingomonas sp. and soakate from the infected field tissue) and were determined to be P. ananatis based on colony morphology, amplification of 16s rRNA, and gyrB sequence data. Our results confirm the pathogenicity of P. ananatis to rice and fulfill Koch's postulates. P. ananatis was also recovered from several similarly diseased rice breeding lines at the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture Rice Research and Extension Center. We conclude that P. ananatis is the causal pathogen for leaf blight-like symptoms observed in the global rice cultivars grown in Arkansas. P. ananatis was previously reported as a pathogen on rice in several rice growing regions, including China (Yu et al., 2021), India (Reshma et al., 2022), and Africa (Kini et al., 2017), however, this is the first report of P. ananatis as a pathogen of rice in the United States
