Barnyardgrass ( (L.) Beauv.) is one of the most troublesome weeds in transplanted and direct-seeded rice worldwide. To develop a strategy for the biocontrol of barnyardgrass, fungal isolates were recovered from barnyardgrass plants that exhibited signs of necrosis and wilt. An isolate B-48 with a high level of pathogenicity to barnyardgrass was identified after pathogenicity tests. From cultural and DNA sequence data, this strain was identified as . The inoculation of the barnyardgrass plant with caused a significant reduction in fresh weight. The isolate B-48 was highly pathogenic to barnyardgrass at the three- to four-leaf stages. When inoculated at a concentration of 1 × 10 spores/mL, barnyardgrass could achieve a reduction in fresh weight of more than 50%. This strain was safe for rice and most plant species. The results of this study indicated that this strain could be a potential mycoherbicide for barnyardgrass control in paddy fields in the future.
稗草(Echinochloa crusgalli (L.) Beauv.)是全球移栽稻和直播稻田中最棘手的杂草之一。为制定稗草生物防治策略,从表现出坏死和萎蔫症状的稗草植株中分离出真菌菌株。经过致病性测试,鉴定出一株对稗草具有高致病性的菌株B-48。根据培养和DNA序列数据,该菌株被鉴定为[具体菌种未给出]。用[该菌株]接种稗草植株导致鲜重显著降低。菌株B-48在稗草三叶至四叶期对其致病性很强。当以1×10孢子/mL的浓度接种时,可以使稗草鲜重降低50%以上。该菌株对水稻和大多数植物物种安全。本研究结果表明,该菌株未来可能成为稻田稗草防治的潜在真菌除草剂。
