Este trabalho apresenta os resultados das pesquisas realizadas para a avaliação da resistência à brusone (Pyricularia oryzae Cav.) dos principais materiais de sequeiro e irrigado do programa de melhoramento genético do Instituto Agronômico do Estado de São Paulo, e de genótipos exóticos, introduzidos de diversos países, visando à obtenção de cultivares de arroz resistentes àquela limitante doença fúngica. Os testes foram realizados em condições de campo, em canteiros padronizados para reação uniforme a P. oryzae, e a avaliação das plantas foi feita através da observação dos sintomas visuais deixados pela doença, aos quais foram atribuídas notas de 1 a 7, conforme a escala de notas adotadas no "Symposium on the rice blast disease", em 1963. Sessenta e três germoplasmas de arroz de sequeiro e trinta de cultivo irrigado foram testados quanto à resistência à brusone na folha, nas seguintes localidades paulistas: Itararé, Mococa, Pariquera-Açu, Pindamonhangaba, Pindorama e Ribeirão Preto. Foram ainda avaliados 102 genótipos exóticos de arroz visando à detecção de fontes de resistência à brusone nas mesmas localidades, além de Campinas. Somente cinco cultivares de sequeiro, GS-73-164, GS-73-165, GS-73-94, IAC-25 e GS-73-17, e dois cultivares de arroz irrigado, IAC-120 e Pinda F-3-7, embora suscetíveis, apresentaram comportamento satisfatório quanto à brusone. Dos genótipos exóticos testados, vinte e sete foram indicados como fontes de resistência à brusone no Estado de São Paulo.

Insight Into

ABSTRACTRice blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae is a devastating disease of cultivated rice worldwide. Infections by this fungus lead to a significant reduction in rice yields and threats to food security. To gain better insight into growth and cell death in M. oryzae during infection, we characterized two predicted M. oryzae metacaspase proteins, MoMca1 and MoMca2. These proteins appear to be functionally redundant and are able to complement the yeast Yca1 homologue. Biochemical analysis revealed that M. oryzae metacaspases exhibited Ca2+ dependent caspase activity in vitro. Deletion of both MoMca1 and MoMca2 in M. oryzae resulted in reduced sporulation, delay in conidial germination and attenuation of disease severity. In addition, the double ΔMomca1mca2 mutant strain showed increased radial growth in the presence of oxidative stress. Interestingly, the ΔMomca1mca2 strain showed an increase accumulation of insoluble aggregates compared to the wild-type strain during vegetative growth. Our findings suggest that MoMca1 and MoMca2 promote the clearance of insoluble aggregates in M. oryzae, demonstrating the important role these metacaspases have in fungal protein homeostasis. Furthermore, these metacaspase proteins may play additional roles, like in regulating stress responses, that would help maintain the fitness of fungal cells required for host infection.IMPORTANCEMagnaporthe oryzae causes rice blast disease that threatens global food security by resulting in the severe loss of rice production every year. A tightly regulated life cycle allows M. oryzae to disarm the host plant immune system during its biotrophic stage before triggering plant cell death in its necrotrophic stage. The ways M. oryzae navigates its complex life cycle remains unclear. This work characterizes two metacaspase proteins with peptidase activity in M. oryzae that are shown to be involved in the regulation of fungal growth and development prior to infection by potentially helping maintain fungal fitness. This study provides new insight into the role of metacaspase proteins in filamentous fungi by illustrating the delays in M. oryzae morphogenesis in the absence of these proteins. Understanding the mechanisms by which M. oryzae morphology and development promote its devastating pathogenicity may lead to the emergence of proper methods for disease control.
