    Notes: Summary In the Netherlands seed potato crops are harvested when still green, the haulm being destroyed before harvest. We compared the effect on the contamination of seed potatoes byErwinia carotovora subsp.atroseptica (Eca) andE. chrysanthemi (Ech) of the common method of haulm destruction by flailing and chemically destroying remaining stems, with the recently developed green crop lifting method. After chenical haulm destruction the levels of contamination with both Eca and Ech surviving cold storage were found not to differ significantly from those after green crop lifting. Losses due to watery wound rot (Pythium ultimum) were considerable in the warm and humid conditions during 1991, especially after green crop lifting.

    Notes: Summary Green crop lifting (GCL) for haulm killing was developed in The Netherlands and offers ideal conditions for controlling the blackleg pathogenErwinia carotovora subsp.atroseptica (Eca) by antagonists. Based on the use of mini-tubers or young tubers from field crops, two bioassays for wound protection were developed. GCL was simulated by artificially skinning or wounding tubers, inoculating the damaged skin with Eca, treating with antagonists and incubating in either potting compost or outside in field soil. Mainly fluorescent pseudomonads, pre-screened for in vitro antagonistic activity on agar and high soft rot reducing ability on tuber slices, were tested in the mini-tuber bioassay. Strains giving the highest degree of wound protection were further tested individually and in combination under field conditions in the young tuber bioassay. One individual strain and two combinations, resulting in reduction of contamination levels on skinned surfaces of 85% and between 60% and 70%, respectively, show good potential for biological control of blackleg.

    Notes: Abstract Routine laboratory testing of 710 bean seed lots from various origins forPseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola (Psp) with immunofluorescence microscopy (IF) showed that 27.5% of the seed lots (five subsamples of 1000 seeds tested per sample) contained two or more IF-positive cells in a total of 500 microscope fields (magnification 500×). Simultaneously performed dilution-platings of IF-positive subsamples on King's medium B confirmed presence of Psp for one-third of these IF-positive seed lots. The ‘grey area’ of disagreement between both laboratory tests was studied by comparison of test data and by field trials. The number of IF-positive cells per subsample was positively correlated with isolation and identification of Psp (R=0.85). The detection level of IF was ca. 102 Psp cells per ml of undiluted subsample extract. The detection level of Psp by isolation on King's medium B was variable, being inversely related with the saprophyte to Psp ratio. The high sensitivity of IF was in part due to high percentages of dormant or dead IF-positive cells in the sample extract. Field trials over two years with 10 000 seeds per seed lot, showed disease incidence for 9 of the 22 seed lots. Of ten IF-positive lots with five positive subsamples per sample, nine were positive in the field test plot (the negative lot gave primary infection spots of Psp when used for commercial growing). By isolation, seven of these ten IF-positive lots were positive. Of the five IF-positive lots with two or less positive subsamples, isolation and field trial were both negative. Based on data on seed transmission from literature, field incidence was unlikely for these five samples in a 10 000 seeds field trial. All seven IF-negative lots were negative in the field trial. The value of IF and isolation for indexing bean seed lots for Psp is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Purothionins (PTHs) and hordothionins (HTHs) were purified by cation-exchange chromatography from petroleum-ether extracts of wheat and barley flour respectively. The HTHs could be separated into two fractions, HTH-1 and HTH-2. Radial diffusion assays and micro-plate broth dilution assays with a number of plant pathogenic bacteria showed that these proteins were toxic forClavibacter michiganensis subsp.michiganensis, the causal agent of bacterial canker on tomato,C. m. subsp.sepedonicus, the causal agent of ring rot on potato, andXanthomonas campestris pv.vesicatoria, the causal agent of a spot disease on tomato and pepper. Only minor differences in toxicity between PTHs and HTHs, and between HTH-1 and HTH-2, were detected. Minor differences in toxicity of these thionins were also detected for different strains of these bacteria. The use of these plant proteins for engineering bacterial disease resistance into solanaceous crops will be discussed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Samenvatting Twee modificaties van ELISA en DIA werden vergeleken met betrekking tot hun gevoeligheid voor het aantonen van twee plantevirussen en hun geschiktheid voor routinematige toepassing. DIA is een serologische toetsmethode die veel overeenkomst vertoont met ELISA, maar waarin het enzymconjugaat is vervangen door een conjugaat met gedispergeerde kleurstofdeeltjes en de incubatie met enzym-substraat door het direct oplossen van de kleurstofmoleculen van het conjugaat met een organisch oplosmiddel. Incubatie van monster en conjugaat vond zowel gescheiden (ELISA 1, DIA 1) als gelijktijdig (ELISA 2, DIA 2) plaats. Twee met zaad overgaande virussen, te weten slamozaïekvirus (LMV) en vroege-verbruiningsvirus van erwt (PEBV) werden bij het onderzoek betrokken. Met DIA kon LMV worden aangetoond in een gezuiverd extract vanNicotiana benthamiana. In ruwe planteëxtracten bleken echter stoffen voor te komen die in DIA sterke niet-specifieke reacties tot gevolg hadden. Verder onderzoek is dan ook noodzakelijk om DIA geschikt te maken voor het aantonen van plantevirussen in ruwe extracten van planten. Betere resultaten werden verkregen met de beide ELISA-modificaties. Met de extracten uit slazaad en erwtezaad gaf ELISA 2 vergelijkbare (LMV) of iets hogere (PEBV) extinctiewaarden dan ELISA 1. Bovendien was de verhouding tussen de extinctiewaarden van virusziek materiaal en die van virusvrij materiaal, bij ELISA 2 hoger dan bij ELISA 1. De grotere gevoeligheid van ELISA 2 en de grotere doelmatigheid ten gevolge van de gelijktijdige incubatie van monster en conjugaat duiden op de bijzondere geschiktheid van deze methode voor routinematige toepassing op grote schaal.
    Notes: Abstract Two modifications of ELISA and DIA were compared in relation to sensitivity of detection of two plant viruses and suitability for large-scale routine testing. DIA is a solid phase immuno assay like ELISA, in which the enzyme conjugate is replaced by a dye sol conjugate and substrate incubation is replaced by immediate dissolving of the dye molecules from the conjugate with an organic solvent. Sample and conjugate were incubated separately (ELISA 1, DIA 1) or simultaneously (ELISA 2, DIA 2). The seed-borne viruses viz. lettuce mosaic virus (LMV) and pea early-browning virus (PEBV) were subjected to the assays. DIA detected LMV in a purified extract ofNicotiana benthamiana. However, compounds present in crude virus-free and virus-containing plant extracts strongly interfered with DIA, necessitating adaptation of DIA to plant viruses in crude extracts. With the extracts of lettuce and pea seeds ELISA 2, in comparison with ELISA 1, resulted in equal (LMV) or slightly higher (PEBV) extinction values and in a higher ratio between extinction values of virus-containing and virus-free samples. The higher sensitivity of ELISA 2 in combination with its higher efficiency as a result of simultaneous sample and conjugate incubation, indicates the potential of this method for large-scale indexing.

    Description / Table of Contents: Samenvatting Verschillende isolatie- en serologische methoden werden vergeleken om de doelbacteriënErwinia carotovora subsp.atroseptica (Eca) enE. chrysanthemi (Ech) aan te tonen in runderdrijfmest met een natuurlijke bacterieflora van ca 108 kolonievormende eenheden(cfu) per ml. De mestmonsters konden gedurende de onderzoekperiode tenminste 8 maanden bij −80°C worden bewaard zonder dat er een afname van het aantal levende mestbacteriën werd geconstateerd, terwijl bij bewaring bij −20°C wel een afname werd gevonden. De ontdooide mestmonsters werden geïnoculeerd met de doelbacterie in concentraties tussen 102 en 108 per ml. De laagste concentratie van de doelbacterie, 102 cfu per ml, kon alleen worden aangetoond met de immunofluorescentie-kleuring van bacteriekolonies (IFC) in een selectief medium. Met deze techniek was het percentage herisolatie vanuit drijfmest geïnoculeerd met 102 Ech cfu per ml respectievelijk 64% in PT-medium (bevat polygalacturonzuur) en 19% in kristalviolet pectine medium (CVP). Voor Eca bedroegen deze percentages respectievelijk 82% en 32%. In de niet-geïnoculeerde mestmonsters werden geen IFC-positieve kolonies gevonden. Via isolatie op CVP konden 103 of meer cfu van Eca en Ech worden aangetoond. Ruwe filtratie van de mestmonsters was nodig voor het aantonen van Eca- en Ech-cellen met immunoadsorptie immunofluorescentie microscopie. De detectiedrempel lag voor deze techniek op 105 bacteriecellen per ml mestmonster. In niet-geïnoculeerde mest werden incidenteel IF-positieve bacteriën gevonden. Het aantonen van Ech en Eca met ELISA was slechts mogelijk in mest geïnoculeerd met 108 of meer cellen van de doelbacterie per ml.
    Notes: Abstract Various isolation and serological techniques were compared for the detection ofErwinia carotovora subsp.atroseptica (Eca) andE. chrysanthemi (Ech) in cattle manure slurry containing c. 108 colony forming units (cfu) per ml. The slurry samples could be preserved at −80°C for 8 months without reduction in the number of bacteria but not at −20°C. Samples stored at −80°C were inoculated with concentrations of the target bacterium ranging from 102 to 108 per ml. Only immunofluorescence colony-staining (IFC) in combination with selective media was able to detect the target organism at a concentration of 100 cells per ml. No IFC-positive colonies were found in pour plates of the non-inoculated cattle slurry. The recovery of the target bacterium from slurry inoculated with 102 cfu of Ech per ml was 64% in PT medium (containing polygalacturonic acid) and 19% in crystal violet pectate medium (CVP). Recoveries of Eca were 32% and 82%, respectively. Ech and Eca could be detected at levels of 103 cfu per ml of slurry by isolation on CVP. Crude filtration procedures were necessary for analysis of slurry samples with immunosorbent immunofluorescence (ISIF) cell staining. The detection level of ISIF for Ech was 105 cells per ml of slurry. IF-positive cells were incidentally observed in the non-inoculated slurry. Detection of Ech and Eca with ELISA was only possible in slurry inoculated with 108 cells of the target bacterium per ml.
