| Research Abstract |
DNA fingerprinting with miltilocus probes, MAGGY and MGR586, were conducted to investigate the population structure of the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea in Japan. Analyses of ca. 300 isolates revealed that two discrete lineages exist in the current rice blast population in Japan. They were designated as JL1 and JL2. There two lineages corresponded to two of the five lineages previously detected in collections made before 1960, suggesting that the structure of the rice blast population in Japan had drastically changed during 1960-1976. Rice blast population in Vietnam were also subjected to DNA fingerprinting with MAGGY probe and the pathotype analysis. These analyses revealed that the blast population in the northern region of Vietnam is genetically more diverse than that in the southern region. In both populations no relationships were detected between lineages and races, suggesting that the "lineage exclusion hypothesis" is not applicable to those populations.
DNA fingerprinting experiments were carried out for establishing a system of DNA-diagnosis of six host-specific subgroups of M. grisea ; Oryza isolates, Triticum isolates, Panicum isolates, Setaria isolates, Eleusine isolates, and Digitaria isolates. We propose the following formulas for distinguishing those subgroups.
(1)HindIII+MGR583 : to identify each group
(2)SalI+MAGGY : to identify the Oryza and the Setaria isolates
(3)EcoRV+MGR583 : to identify the Triticum isolates
(4)HindIII+Pot2 : to identify the Digitaria isolates
