Germination And Growth

Dothichiza, poplar canker, due to its significance in the establishment of intensive poplar plantations, has been drawing attention for already a long time. The aim of the test was to study some of the most important physiological characteristics of the fungus, such as conidial germination germ tube growth and growth of mycelium at different temperatures on the isolates from north Potisje and to compare the study results with the domestic and foreign literature sources. The aim of this study was not to identify the different lower systematic categories, but to identify the differences between individual isolates - populations, depending on the most significant ecological factors, such as temperature.

Germ Tube Growth

The effect of temperature on in vitro germination and germ tube growth of urediniospores of Tranzschelia discolor was studied over time under constant temperature conditions. Studies were carried out on 1% water agar in the dark at 3�C, 5�C, 8�C, 10�C, 15�C, 20�C, 25�C, 28�C, 30�C and 32�C. Germination was observed at all temperatures between 5 and 30'C, and occurred rapidly over most of this range. At 2 h, germination exceeded 80% at temperatures between 10 and 28�C, and this level was reached at 3 h at 8�C. Germination at 5 and 30�C was much reduced and at 7 h reached only 44% and 38% respectively. Germ tube growth occurred most vigorously at 15 and 20�C, reaching lengths in excess of 500 8m at 9 h. The optimum range was narrower than that for germination, and growth was reduced or poor at 8�C, 10�C, 25�C and 28�C, which were favourable temperatures for germination. Average germ tube lengths at 9 h at these temperatures were 55, 245, 273 and 62 8m, respectively. Three-dimensional models were derived relating germination and germ tube growth to time and temperature.

Strip Test

In order to study the effect of temperature on the mechanical properties of H90 copper strip material, the H90 copper strip test pieces were heated to different temperatures (20~600 °C) for tensile test; the yield strength, tensile strength, elastic modulus and elongation of H90 copper strip at different temperatures were obtained. Based on the test results, the empirical models of yield strength, tensile strength, elastic modulus of H90 copper strip at high temperature were established; the test showed that, with the increase of temperature, the yield strength, tensile strength and elastic modulus of H90 copper strip decreased greatly, and the elongation after fracture first increased-decreased-increased at 20~600 °C. The study results in this paper provide basic material data for analyzing the effect of temperature on the continuous firing of firearms and other weapons.

Germ Tube Growth

Thekopsora minima is a heteroecious rust, with spermogonia and aecia occurring on the needles of hemlock (Tsuga spp.) and uredinia, telia, and basidia occurring on the leaves of ericaceous genera, including species of Rhododendron. The effect of temperature was determined for urediniospore germination, germ tube growth, and infection efficiency on Rhododendron ‘White Lights’. Percent germination and germ tube growth were assessed at 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30°C after 3 h of incubation on 1.5% water agar in the dark. Polynomial regression analyses revealed a significant effect of temperature on both germination (P < 0.001, R2adj = 0.936) and germ tube growth (P < 0.001, R2adj = 0.933), with predicted optimum temperatures of 21.5 and 22.0°C, respectively. Germination and germ tube growth were reduced greatly at 30°C and below 15°C. Temperature also was found to have a significant effect on infection efficiency, as measured by incubation period (P < 0.001, R2adj = 0.808) and uredinia produced (P < 0.001, R2adj = 0.866). On excised leaf disks of Rhododendron ‘White Lights’ maintained under a 14-h photoperiod, the shortest mean incubation periods of 10.7 and 10.0 days were at 20 and 25°C, respectively, with a predicted optimum of 23°C. The mean incubation period at 15 and 30°C was approximately 4 and 3 days longer, respectively, than at the predicted optimum temperature. The number of uredinia produced was similar at 15, 20, and 25°C, but was reduced sixfold at 30°C. The predicted optimum temperature for uredinial production was 19.5°C, with a 5% variation in uredinia production between 17.5 and 22°C.

Asexual Cycle

Separate extracts of Neuorospora crassa grown either in Vogel's medium N, medium N + glutamate, or medium N which had been made deficient in zinc, were assayed for succinic dehydrogenase and soluble protein at intervals throughout the asexual cycle. Succinic dehydrogenase, although apparently unnecessary for either the formation of conidia or conidial germination, does appear to be necessary for mycelial growth and for the production of conidiophores. Differences in the amount of enzyme during morphologically distinct states of differentiation (i.e. production of the germ tube and production of the conidiophore) may serve as an indicator of significant changes in the physiology of Neurospora at these times during development.The level of succinic dehydrogenase in the conidiophore before its differentiation into conidia appears to influence the amount of this enzyme found in the conidia. This is in keeping with the idea that conditions prevailing in the cytoplasm before the formation of conidia may directly influence the constituents subsequently found in the conidia which determine conidial viability, rate of germination, and growth yield.

Botryosphaeriaceae Species

Germination of conidia of eight botryosphaeriaceous fungi infecting grapevines was evaluated after 2, 4, 6, 12, and 24 h incubation under eight different temperatures (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, and 40°C). The effect of temperature on conidial germination was also evaluated in different stages (hyaline versus pigmented conidia) of the species Lasiodiplodia theobromae. Conidial germination of Botryosphaeriaceae species infecting grapevines was significantly affected by temperature. Overall, conidial germination increased significantly with longer incubation times, especially from 2 to 12 h. In most cases, germination of conidia was not significantly different between 12 and 24 h incubation. Conidia of botryosphaeriaceous species did not germinate (with the exception of Botryosphaeria dothidea and Neofusicoccum parvum) at 5°C, and only B. dothidea, Diplodia seriata, and L. theobromae showed high levels of conidial germination at 40°C. Optimum conidial germination temperatures (defined as the temperature in which germination reached at least 50% in the shortest incubation time) were 25°C for B. dothidea and Dothiorella iberica, 25 to 30°C for Spencermartinsia viticola, 30°C for Diplodia corticola, D. mutila, D. seriata, N. parvum, and hyaline L. theobromae, and 40°C for pigmented L. theobromae conidia. Successful conidial germination of species of Botryosphaeriaceae infecting grapevines was always observed between 10 and 35°C with the exception of Dothiorella iberica and pigmented L. theobromae conidia, neither of which germinated at 35 and 10°C, respectively. Results of this study show conidia of botryosphaeriaceous species infecting grapevines to be capable of germination under a broad range of temperatures including those considered to be extreme, which may explain the success of these species as grapevine pathogens throughout most of the grape-growing areas in both Northern and Southern Hemispheres.

Germ Tube Growth

Zoospore cysts of Pythium aphanidermatum germinated well without external nutrient supply, but pea root exudate increased percentage germination and germ tube growth. Zoospore cyst germination and growth varied with different concentrations of the substrate supplied. Alone, the neutral fraction (sugars) increased percentage germination but had little effect on germ tube growth; the cationic fraction (amino acids) suppressed germination and growth somewhat, except at very low concentrations; the anionic fraction (organic acids) mildly stimulated both processes. Neutral and anionic fractions combined approached the stimulatory effect of root exudate. Amongst the components of root exudate tested as pure chemicals, fructose, histidine, homoserine, proline, and tartaric acid promoted germination and growth at low concentrations. Alpha-alanine, glutamine, serine, and valine became stimulatory at high concentrations. A combination of glucose with one of the organic acids was more effective than either alone.

Influence Of Temperature On

The study was carried out to determine the effect of three different temperatures (5, 15 and 25?C) on in vitro pollen germination and pollen tube growth of five sour cherry cultivars: ?Heimanns Konservenweichsel?, ?Kelleriis 14?, ?Oblacinska?, ?Rexelle? and ?Sumadinka?. Pollen germination a % agar % Temperature significantly affected pollen germination. High germination rates (50-70%) were obtained at both 15?C and 25?C. Satisfactory germination rates (42-51%) were also obtained at 5?C in some cultivars (?Rexelle?, ?Sumadinka? and ?Heimanns Konservenweichsel?). The influence of temperature on the pollen tube growth was more prominent. The length of pollen tubes was three to six times higher at 15?C and 25?C in comparison with 5?C. This has led to the conclusion that the temperature of 5?C, although it could be adequate for pollen germination, is not high enough for optimal pollen tube growth. was determined by germinating pollen grains in culture medium containing 0.7agar-and 15sucrose.
