Inhibitory effects of B. velezensis strain on plant pathogens of the genus Xanthomonas
Švecová, Magdaléna ; Palyzová, Andrea (advisor) ; Jelínková, Markéta (referee)
Biological control is a method of applied ecology that uses one organism, or its product, to inhibit another pathogenic organism. This method in plant protection should be more environmentally friendly than commonly used pesticides. The rhizobacterium Bacillus velezensis FZB42, which can suppress the growth of other microorganisms, can be used as a biological control agent. Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris is a phytopathogen that causes significant losses in agricultural production. This diploma thesis proved an antagonistic effect of the bacterial strain B. velezensis FZB42 on the phytopathogenic bacteria Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris SU in mixed culture. The study confirmed that the antibiotic effect of B. velezensis strain FZB42 against X. campestris pv. campestris SU in mixed culture depends on the inoculation ratios of both strains. The interaction of the two bacterial strains was characterized by metabolomics analysis, it was confirmed that B. velezensis FZB42 produces four dominant secondary metabolites: lipopeptides surfactin, fengycin, and bacillomycin and siderophore bacillibactin, which show antifungal and antibiotic activity. The inhibitory activity of B. velezensis strain FZB42 was further monitored by SEM analysis, which showed damage to X. campesris pv. campestris SU...

Možnosti využití nanočástic na bázi selenu v ochraně rostlin vůči bakteriálním patogenům
Wohlmuth, Jan
The work is focused on the observation of the effect of selenium nanoparticles [Se] on seedlings of head cabbage, whose seeds were inoculated with Xanthomonas campestris pv campestris (Pammel) Dowson. The paper summarizes protocols of nanoparticle synthesis using various methods. A special part was devoted to methods of synthesis of selenium [Se] nanoparticles. Methods of conventional synthesis and methods of biological synthesis have been described. When using a preparation containing nanoparticles, the effect on bacteria inoculated on seed was clearly seen. Increasing concentration of the product visibly appeared to be stronger. The use of SelenBact appears to be very promising when applied to seed contaminated with bacteria Xanthomonas campestris pv campestris (Pammel) Dowson.

Studium rezistence perspektivních genotypů zelenin z čeledi Brassicaceae =: Study of the resistance of perspective vegetable genotypes from the Brassicaceae family /
Peňázová, Eliška
The topic of this thesis is focused on the testing of resistance of selected Brassica species to the black rot infection and viral mosaics caused by economically important pathogens of Brassicaceae family. The theoretical part describes characteristics of causal pathogens - Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc), Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) and Turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV), and summarize the current state of a resistance study of these pathogens in the Brassicaceae family. The thesis also describes modern molecular methods used for the detection of bacterial and viral pathogens. In the experimental part, the detections of Xcc, TuMV and TYMV pathogens were optimized by PCR and RT-PCR. For bacterium Xcc, the Real-time PCR targeting a part of the zur gene sequence was designed using a TaqMan® probe. This detection system was subsequently processed in the form of a certified methodology for use in diagnostics. To increase the specificity, Real-time PCR targeting zur gene was involved in the Multiplex Real time PCR reaction. Then the dynamics of the Xcc infection was monitored in 6 hybrid cabbage cultivars. The testing of resistance to the black rot disease was optimized by the procedure including artificial inoculations using the suspension of the Xcc isolates HRIW 3811, 3971A and 1279A and the SU1 isolate originated from the Czech Republic. In a four-year experiment, the total of 42 homozygous breeding lines and 4 hybrid cultivars were tested, where 5 lines were recommended for breeding for resistance to the black rot disease. For the detection of TuMV and TYMV viruses, Real-time RT-PCR approaches based on the TaqMan® probe and SYBR Green dye were tested. The target region of both detections was the coat protein. The TuMV detection has been optimized for SYBR Green approach; for the TYMV detection, the use of the TaqMan® probe has been recommended. Detection systems were used to evaluate artificial inoculations of 6 cabbage cultivars by individual viruses. The tested plants did not show visual symptoms of infection therefore the presence of viruses was evaluated by Real-time RT PCR. The system designed for TYMV detected the presence of virus in all tested samples, TuMV was detected only in two samples. Negative detection results are probably in connection with the absence of TuMV symptoms which indicates unsuccesful plant inoculation. For both detection systems, it was recommended the verification on a wider range of viral isolates prior to standard use in diagnostics

Ověření účinnosti ošetření osiva nízkoteplotním plazmatem s ohledem na zdravotní stav a produkční vlastnosti
Gazdík, Filip
The diploma thesis was focused on evaluation of non-thermal (cold) plasma seed treatment of cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata), on its health and production properties and on the effects against Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc). A soil fungus Trichoderma virens (TVI) was used as additional seed treatment. The field experiment showed that microwave, low pressure, 500 W non-thermal plasma and 4 minute exposure time did not have a significant effect on Xcc, but had a positive influence - in combination with Xcc and TVI - on plants´ vitality and yield. Further, this plasma treatment, in combination with Xcc, had a negative impact on seeds´ germination. Non-thermal plasma treatment with the above-mentioned parameters proved to be unsuitable for cabbage seed treatment.
