“…Marine bacterium Luteolibacter algae H18 can degrade fucoidan, which may enrich the feed degradation ability of Zhongdian yaks ( 22 ), while its positive partner ascochyta contains some disease-causing species ( 23 ). After 90 days, the diet was obtained entirely from free grazing and had more exposure to pathogens in the environment, like black leg causer Plenodomus was increased at 180 days age ( 24 ). Plenodomus is positively related to Fretibacterium and is also an opportunistic pathogen.…”

The rumen of ruminants is inhabited by complex and diverse microorganisms. Young animals are exposed to a variety of microorganisms from their mother and the environment, and a few colonize and survive in their digestive tracts, forming specific microflora as the young animals grow and develop. In this study, we conducted full-length sequencing of bacterial and fungal communities in the rumen of pastured yaks of different ages (from 5 days after birth to adulthood) using amplified sequencing technology. The results showed that the rumen microflora of Zhongdian yaks changed gradually from 5 to 180 days after birth and tended to stabilize at 2 years of age. The rumen of adult yaks was the most suitable for the growth and reproduction of most bacteria. Bactria diversity of the yak rumen increased gradually from 5 days after birth to adulthood. With the growth of yaks, different dominated bacteria were enriched in different groups, but Prevotella remained highly abundant in all groups. The yak rumen at 90 days of age was the most suitable for the growth and reproduction of most fungi, and 90 days of age could be a cut-off point for the distribution of fungal communities. Fungal Thelebolus was the firstly reported in yak rumen and was enriched in the yak rumen of 90 days after birth. The most abundant and balanced fungal genera were found in adult yaks, and most of them were only detected in adult yaks. Our study reported on the rumen bacterial and fungal communities of Zhongdian yaks grazed at different ages and provided insights into the dynamic changes of dominant microflora with yak growth.

Poly(butylene succinate-co-adipate) (PBSA), a biodegradable plastic, is significantly colonized and degraded by soil microbes under natural field conditions, especially by fungal plant pathogens, raising concerns about potential economic losses. This study hypothesizes that the degradation of biodegradable plastics may increase the presence and abundance of plant pathogens by serving as an additional carbon source, ultimately posing a risk to forest ecosystems. We investigated (i) fungal plant pathogens during the exposure of PBSA in European broadleaved and coniferous forests (two forest types), with a specific focus on potential risk to tree health, and (ii) the response of such fungi to environmental factors, including tree species, soil pH, nutrient availability, moisture content, and the physicochemical properties of leaf litter layer. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) revealed that PBSA harbored a total of 318 fungal plant pathogenic amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) belonging to 108 genera. Among the identified genera (Alternaria, Nectria, Phoma, Lophodermium, and Phacidium), some species have been reported as causative agents of tree diseases. Plenodomus was present in high relative abundances on PBSA, which have not previously been associated with disease in broadleaved and coniferous forests. Furthermore, the highest number of fungal plant pathogens were detected at 200 days of PBSA exposure (112 and 99 fungal plant pathogenic ASV on PBSA degraded under Q. robur and F. sylvatic-dominated forest, respectively), which was double compared mature leaves and needles from the same forest sites. These findings suggest that PBSA attracts fungal plant pathogens in forests as an additional carbon source, potentially leading to increased disease outbreaks and disrupting the stability of forest ecosystems. The fungal plant pathogenic community compositions were mainly shaped by forest type, PBSA exposure time, site locations, leaf litter layer water content, and N:P ratio from leaf litter layer in both forest types. This study provides valuable insights into the potential risks posed by biodegradable plastic degradation in forests after 200 and 400 days of exposure, respectively. Further comprehensive evaluations of their effects on tree health and ecosystems, ideally on a long-term basis, are needed. These evaluations should include integrating microbial investigation, soil health monitoring, and ecosystem interaction assessments. Nevertheless, it should be noted that our interpretation of plant pathogens is solely based on high-throughput sequencing, bioinformatics, and annotation tools.

What Can Be Learned by a Synoptic Review of Plant Disease Epidemics and Outbreaks Published in 2021?

A synoptic review of plant disease epidemics and outbreaks was made using two complementary approaches. The first approach involved reviewing scientific literature published in 2021; the second approach involved retrieving new records added in 2021 to the CABI Distribution Database. The literature review retrieved 186 articles, describing studies in 62 categories (pathogen species/species complexes) across >40 host species on 6 continents. Pathogen species with >5 articles were: Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus, cassava mosaic viruses, citrus tristeza virus, Erwinia amylovora, Fusarium spp. complexes, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense, Magnaporthe oryzae, maize lethal necrosis co-infecting viruses, Meloidogyne spp. complexes, Pseudomonas syringae pvs, Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, Xylella fastidiosa, and Zymoseptoria tritici. Automated searches of the CABI Distribution Database identified 617 distribution records new in 2021 of 283 plant pathogens. A further manual review of these records confirmed 15 pathogens reported in new locations: apple hammerhead viroid, apple rubbery wood viruses, Aphelenchoides besseyi, Biscogniauxia mediterranea, Ca. Liberibacter asiaticus, citrus tristeza virus, Colletotrichum siamense, cucurbit chlorotic yellows virus, Erwinia rhapontici, Erysiphe corylacearum, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense Tropical Race 4, Globodera rostochiensis, Nothophoma quercina, potato spindle tuber viroid, and tomato brown rugose fruit virus. Of these, 4 pathogens had at least 25% of all records reported in 2021. We assessed two of these pathogens – tomato brown rugose fruit virus and cucurbit chlorotic yellows virus – to be actively emerging in/spreading to new locations. In general our dual approaches revealed distinct sets of plant disease outbreaks and new records, with little overlap.
