Attachment and adhesion of conidia of Stagonospora nodorum to natural and artificial surfaces

Attachment and adhesion of conidia of a wheat-isolate of Stagonospora nodorum to leaf and artificial surfaces was studied. Attachment of conidia was a non-viable process, separate from adhesion, that occurred rapidly and irreversibly. Attachment involved conidial-surface carbohydrates and was partia...

description Attachment and adhesion of conidia of a wheat-isolate of Stagonospora nodorum to leaf and artificial surfaces was studied. Attachment of conidia was a non-viable process, separate from adhesion, that occurred rapidly and irreversibly. Attachment involved conidial-surface carbohydrates and was partially influenced by surface hydrophobicity. The subsequent adhesion, via the secretion of extracellular matrix from conidia, was a viable process that induced the complete cover of conidia in response to wheat leaf surface components containing epi-cuticular wax and to a lesser extent to barley but inducing only partial covering on glass. Results suggest that specific surface components from the compatible host promote rapid attachment and adhesion of S. nodorum conidia. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
