Abstract:
In the present study, life cycle and transmission of Guignardia mangiferae were determined by conventional isolation of endophytic fungi from asymptomatic leaves, withered leaves, cuttage seedlings, seeds and seedlings of various tea plants. The results showed that the highest isolation rate of G. mangiferae was found from species of Camellia sinensis, followed by C. oleifera and then C. japonica. There was also significant difference in G. mangiferaecolonization among various tea cultivars. In tea plants, the newlyflushed leaves were endophytefree. As the leaf was developing, colonization of G. mangiferaegradually increased, and the highest isolation rate of G. mangiferae reached to 73.5% in the mature. Isolation rate of G. mangiferae was also affected by other factors such as date of sprouting, harvest stages, temperature and precipitation. The low isolation rates of G. mangiferae were observed in spring, from February through June, whereas higher isolation rates were observed in May, July August and December. There was a temporal variation of endophytic G. mangiferaein leaves of tea plants in Fujian Province. G. mangiferae was not isolated from seeds and the newly germinated seedlings. With the seedlings developed, G. mangiferae colonized on the seedlings gradually. G. mangiferaecould grow out from the spores collected from the air in tea orchards. G. mangiferaecould transmit from mother stocks to cuttage seedlings, which showed a special pattern of vertical transmission. Based on these data, we suggest that G. mangiferae has two modes of transmission in tea plant orchards, horizontal transmission by ascospores and vertical transmission by mother stocks.
