First report of milkweed (Euphorbia geniculata) as an alternative host for Colletotrichum truncatum in soybean fields in India

Soybean (Glycine max, L.), a major oilseed crop of India faces anthracnose disease caused by Colletotrichum truncatum (Nataraj et al. 2021). Several weeds serve as alternative hosts for Colletotrichum spp. (Hartman et al. 1986). Around 24.67% of soybean fields in the study area were infested with Eu...

520 |a Soybean (Glycine max, L.), a major oilseed crop of India faces anthracnose disease caused by Colletotrichum truncatum (Nataraj et al. 2021). Several weeds serve as alternative hosts for Colletotrichum spp. (Hartman et al. 1986). Around 24.67% of soybean fields in the study area were infested with Euphorbia geniculata (Kutariye et al. 2021). In September 2021, milkweed plants died in the field, showing irregular circular lesions with wavy margins on the stem, change in color of veins and veinlets from brown to black and leaves exhibiting a twisted appearance at ICAR-Indian Institute of Soybean Research, India. Later on plants completely died and acervuli of average size 284 µm were visualized under stereo microscopy. Twenty milkweed samples were collected, rinsed, and surface sterilized with NaOCl (1%). Fungus isolation was done from leaf and stem and transferred to sterilized Petri plates with Potato dextrose agar (PDA). The plates were incubated at 25 ± 2°C for 48 h with dark/light (10h/14h) cycle. The fungi produced circular, raised, black to light grey colonies. Sickle shaped aseptate conidia, measuring 23.14 µm length, 3.18 µm width and hyphal width 5.49 µm were confirmed using a compound microscope with 20X magnification. The fungus was purified via hyphal tip method and pure culture was maintained on PDA at (26 ± 2°C). Milkweed seedlings in clay pots were inoculated with a conidial suspension of the fungus (106 conidia/mL) prepared from ten days old culture using serial dilution technique. Soybean variety JS 95-60 was inoculated by atomizing 20 ml of the same suspension on each plant. The negative controls for both milkweed and soybean were inoculated with sterile distilled water. Veinal necrosis and acervuli formation were observed on both milkweed and soybean, but no signs or symptoms of disease were observed in the controls. The re-isolated fungus from both the diseased hosts resembled original culture as they produced black to light grey colonies, sickle shaped aseptate conidia and ITS sequence (OR124845) exhibiting 100% resemblance to C. truncatum isolate C-17 (MN736513), thus confirming Koch's postulates. The pathogen was classified as Colletotrichum spp. based on morphological and cultural characters and the pathogenicity test (Rajput et al. 2021). To confirm identity of the pathogen infecting milkweed, DNA was extracted from the reisolated fungus using the HiPurA Fungal DNA Purification Kit (HiMedia, India). The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, beta-tubulin (TUB2) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) genes were amplified (Kumar et al. 2021). The GAPDH gene was amplified under similar reaction conditions except for annealing temp 59°C. For species level identification, the ITS, TUB2 and GAPDH gene sequences were submitted to GenBank with accession numbers OR004468, OQ869780 and OQ869781, respectively. The BLAST analysis of TUB2 and GAPDH gene showed sequence homology of 100% and 98.43% respectively with C. truncatum culture-collection CBS:151.35 (GU228156, GU228254). The isolate was identified as C. truncatum on the basis of molecular analysis, corroborating the above morphological identification. This is the first report of C. truncatum infecting milkweed in India, indicating milkweed as an alternative host in soybean fields, potentially raising inoculum levels and carryover between crops
