First Report of Powdery Mildew caused by Erysiphe astragali on Sphaerophysa salsula

Sphaerophysa salsula (Pall.) DC., also known as Yang Liao Pao, belongs to the Leguminosae family and is the only existing species in the Sphaerophysa genus. S. salsula is tolerance to cold, high salt, and alkaline soil, it is widely cultivated in China as a forage crop, and used as a Chinese folk me...

520 |a Sphaerophysa salsula (Pall.) DC., also known as Yang Liao Pao, belongs to the Leguminosae family and is the only existing species in the Sphaerophysa genus. S. salsula is tolerance to cold, high salt, and alkaline soil, it is widely cultivated in China as a forage crop, and used as a Chinese folk medicine to treat hypertension (Ma et al., 2002). In 2023, signs and symptoms similar to powdery mildew were found on S. salsula planted in Tumd left (40.515°N, 110.424°E), Baotou City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China. The white powdery substance covered 90% of the leaf area, and the infected plants showed weak growth and senescence. More than 80% of plants (n=200) had these powdery mildew-like symptoms. Hyphal appressoria are solitary, conidiophores have few branches and septa. Conidia are cylindrical to clavate, 25-32 μm long and 8-15 μm wide (n=30), conidia form single subapical germ tubes, straight to curved-sinuous, with swollen apex or distinctly lobed conidial appressorium. Based on these morphological characteristics, the fungus was tentatively identified as an Erysiphe sp. (Schmidt and Braun 2020). Fungal structures were isolated from diseased leaves, and genomic DNA of the pathogen was extracted using the method described by Zhu et al. (2022). The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region was amplified by PCR using the primers PMITS1/PMITS2 (Cunnington et al. 2003) and the amplicon sequenced by Invitrogen (Shanghai, China). The powdery mildew strain, named as KMD (GenBank accession no.: PP267067), showed an identity of 100% (645/645bp) with Erysiphe astragali, a powdery mildew reported on Astragalus glycyphyllos in Golestan, Iran (GenBank: OP806834) and identity of 99.6% (643/645bp) with Erysiphe astragali (GenBank: MW142495), a powdery mildew reported on A. scaberrimus in Inner Mongolia, China (Sun et al. 2023). Pathogenicity tests were conducted by brushing the conidia from infected S. salsula leaves onto leaves of four healthy plants, while four control plants were brushed in the same manner. All the treated plants were placed in separate growth chambers maintained at 19°C and 65% humidity, with a 16 h light/8 h dark photoperiod. Nine days after inoculation, the treated plants showed powdery mildew symptoms, while the control plants remained asymptomatic. The same results were obtained for two repeated pathogenicity experiments. The powdery mildew fungus was reisolated and identified as E. astragali based on morphological and molecular analysis, thereby fulfilling Koch's postulates. No report on the occurrence of powdery mildew on S. salsula plants has been found previously. The occurrence of this destructive powdery mildew may adversely affect the cultivation of S. salsula. Identifying the pathogen of powdery mildew will support future efforts to control and manage powdery mildew on S. salsula
