摘要： Key MessageA host-selective, proteinaceous maize toxin was identified from the culture filtrate of the maize pathogenCochliobolus heterostrophus. A dominant gene for toxin susceptibility was identified on maize chromosome 4.AbstractA toxic activity was identified from the culture filtrate (CF) of the fungus Cochliobolus heterostrophus, causal agent of the maize disease southern leaf blight (SLB) with differential toxicity on maize lines. Two independent mapping populations; a 113-line recombinant inbred line population and a 258-line association population, were used to map loci associated with sensitivity to the CF at the seedling stage. A major QTL on chromosome 4 was identified at the same locus using both populations. Mapping in the association population defined a 400kb region that contained the sensitivity locus. By comparing CF-sensitivity of the parents of the RIL population with that of the F-1 progeny, we determined that the sensitivity allele was dominant. No relationship was observed between CF-sensitivity in seedlings and SLB susceptibility in mature plants; however, a significant correlation (-0.58) was observed between SLB susceptibility and CF-sensitivity in seedlings. The activity of the CF was light-dependent and was sensitive to pronase, indicating that the toxin was proteinaceous.
