Alternative hosts of Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea in southern Africa [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Plant Pathology, 2020
Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea (Sss) is an obligate parasite that can only multiply within the living tissues of a host plant. Greenhouse experiments were carried out to determine the host status of Sss in some crops and weeds commonly found in southern African fields.

Relationship between Spongospora subterranea f. sp.  subterranea soil inoculum level, host resistance and powdery scab on potato tubers in the field

open access: yesPlant Pathology, 2012
The relationship between initial soil inoculum level of Spongospora subterranea f. sp.  subterranea (Sss) and the incidence and severity of powdery scab on potato tubers at harvest was investigated.

Aerial dispersal of Spongospora subterranea sp. f. subterranea, the causal agent of potato powdery scab

European Journal of Plant Pathology, 2020
Potato powdery scab caused by Spongospora subterranea subsp . subterranea (Sss) causes extensive damage to the quality and marketability of tubers. Disease outbreaks in potatoes grown in virgin soils in south Israel, lead us to the hypothesis that wind-driven inoculum may also be a source of new infections.

A Greenhouse Assay for Powdery Scab (Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea) Resistance in Potato

Potato Research, 2008
The plasmodiophorid pathogen Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea causes powdery scab disease of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.), which severely affects tuber quality. Adequate chemical control of the disease is lacking, so breeding resistant potato cultivars is important.

Detection and Quantification of Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea in Soils and on Tubers Using Specific PCR Primers

European Journal of Plant Pathology, 1999
PCR-based methods were developed for the detection and quantification of the potato pathogen Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea (S. subterranea) in peel, tuber washings and soil. A partial sequence was obtained for S. subterranea ribosomal DNA and specific PCR primers (Sps1 and Sps2) were chosen from the internal transcribed spacer regions ...

Ultrastructure of sporangial development in Spongospora subterranea f. sp. nasturtii infecting watercress

Mycological Research, 1990
The stages of the sporangiogenous phase in the life-cycle of S. subterranea t. sp. nasturtii were observed using transmission electron microscopy. The vegetative multinucleate plasmodium and its association with the host cytoplasm is described. Uninucleate zoosporangia are produced at the onset of sporogenesis when cleavage vacuoles coalesce to form ...

An ultrastructural study of the interaction between Spongospora subterranea f. sp. nasturtii and watercress roots

Mycological Research, 1996
The early stages (up to 72 h) of the infection cycle of Spongospora subterranea f. sp. nasturtii were investigated. Within 48 h, zoospores encysted on roots and produced adhesoria, the cyst wall which formed during zoospore encystment underwent changes in morphology. Cysts contained a dense-staining bullet-like stachel which may be involved in host
