Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of plant disease control, specifically relating to a black tiger extract, its preparation method, and its use in controlling plant diseases. Background Technology

[0002] Plant fungal and oomycete diseases are numerous, accounting for approximately 70% of all plant diseases. Several, even dozens, of different fungi and oomycetes can cause diseases on a single plant. For example, rice blast, rice false smut, sheath blight, sesame spot, and bakanae disease; wheat scab, powdery mildew, stripe rust, stem rust, leaf rust, root rot, and sheath blight; and corn large leaf spot, small leaf spot, stem base rot, rust, sheath blight, Curvularia leaf spot, head smut, and powdery mildew are all caused by fungi. These fungal diseases account for over 90% of the area affected and the losses caused by crop diseases. Besides fungal diseases, oomycete diseases are also serious in many crops, such as potato late blight, soybean Phytophthora blight, pepper Phytophthora blight, grape downy mildew, and cucumber downy mildew. Statistics show that fungal and oomycete diseases cause 10%-20% of crop yield losses annually.

[0003] Chemical control remains the primary method for controlling plant diseases, with widely used synthetic fungicides including tricyclazole, azoxystrobin, pyraclostrobin, boscalid, cyazofamid, chlorothalonil, thiophanate-methyl, carbendazim, prothiophanate-methyl, and imazalil. Reports indicate that many plant pathogenic fungi in agricultural production have developed significant resistance and cross-resistance to fungicides. For example, rice blast fungus, wheat scab fungus, and gray mold fungus have shown marked resistance to fungicides such as carbendazim, prothiophanate-methyl, and boscalid, respectively. Furthermore, the long-term use of synthetic fungicides has led to a series of social problems, including environmental pollution, pesticide residues, and toxicity to humans and animals.

[0004] Plant-derived fungicides, as effective alternatives to chemically synthesized fungicides, are an important branch of biological pesticides. They possess both antibacterial and bactericidal activities, while also offering advantages such as safety for humans and animals, environmental friendliness, low likelihood of developing resistance, and easy degradation. Currently used plant-derived fungicides mainly include extracts from Sophora flavescens, bulb extracts from garlic and other Allium family plants, Cnidium monnieri, Neem seed extract, and Oregano extract. These plant-derived fungicides have been widely used for the control of various diseases in crops and fruits and vegetables. For example, matrine is used to control downy mildew, powdery mildew, gray mold, and blight; allicin is used to control anthracnose and blight in peppers.

[0005] Black Tiger ( Scarlet Kadsura Black Tiger (Hemiberlesia lataniae) is a traditional medicinal plant.

After 3-5 days, rice blast fungus mycelia were scraped from the OTA plates, broken up, and evenly spread onto new OTA plates, which were then incubated in a 28℃ constant temperature and light incubator. When new mycelia emerged from the surface of the culture medium, they were broken up with cotton swabs and incubated at 28℃ under light for 48 h. A large number of conidia were produced on the surface of the OTA plates.

[0085] (2) Preparation of *Blastomyces oryzae* conidial suspension: After scraping OTA plates with sterile water, the suspension was filtered through three layers of lens paper. The filtrate was the conidial suspension. The conidia were counted using a hemocytometer, and the conidial concentration in the suspension was adjusted to 4 × 10⁻⁶. 5 per mL.

[0086] (3) Treatment of rice blast fungus conidia with the test extracts: Equal volumes of the stock solutions of the test extracts at different concentrations were added to the conidia suspension, and each test extract was prepared to a working concentration of 200 mg / L and a conidia concentration of 2×10⁻⁶. 5 A mixed inoculum of 2 × 10⁶ cells / mL and a working concentration of 50 mg / L conidia. 5 A mixed inoculum of 1 conidia / mL was prepared and sequentially spotted onto hydrophobic glass slides, then incubated at 28°C in the dark. Twelve hours after inoculation, the conidia germination rate and appressorium formation rate were observed and tallied under a microscope.

[0087] (4) Statistics and analysis: Three fields of view were counted for each treatment, and 100 conidia were counted for each field of view. The number of germinations and appressorium formations were investigated, and the conidia germination rate and appressorium formation rate were calculated. The conidia germination rate and appressorium formation rate of solvent treatment (1% dimethyl sulfoxide) were used as controls to calculate the inhibitory effect of the test sample on the germination of conidia and the formation of appressorium of *Blastomyces oryzae*.

The specific standards are as follows: Grade 0: No disease on the whole leaf; Grade 1: Brown necrotic spots the size of pinheads on the leaves; Grade 2: Larger brown necrotic spots (1-2 mm in diameter) on the leaves, but no typical lesions; Grade 3: Typical rice blast lesions, lesion area <2%; Grade 4: Typical rice blast lesions, 2% ≤ lesion area <5%; Grade 5: Typical rice blast lesions, 5% ≤ lesion area <10%; Grade 6: Typical rice blast lesions, 10% ≤ lesion area <25%; Grade 7: Typical rice blast lesions, 25% ≤ lesion area <50%; Grade 8: Typical rice blast lesions, 50% ≤ lesion area <75%; Grade 9: Typical rice blast lesions, lesion area ≥75%.

[0138] 2. Experimental Results

[0139] The results are shown in Table 6 below. In Table 6, "1-7" represent the occurrence level of rice blast disease.

[0140] Table 6

[0141]

[0142] The results indicate that although rice leaves treated with extracts HL1-B1, HL1-B2, and HL1-B3 showed typical rice blast lesions, the lesion area was less than 2%, indicating that the treatments generally had good control effects against rice blast leaf blast. Among these, HL1-E1 showed the best control effect.

[0143] To further demonstrate that the concentration "1200 mg / L" applied in this invention is a safe concentration (harmless to plants), the extract HL1-B1 was further used to conduct a safety evaluation of rice at this concentration. The specific results are as follows:

[0144] (1) Seed germination. Healthy japonica rice (Nipponbare) seeds were selected and germinated with pesticides at concentrations of 300, 600, and 1200 μg·mL⁻¹. -1 Rice seeds were soaked in black tiger extract (HL1-B1) and cultured in the dark at 30℃ for 48 h. Germination was then observed and the germination rate was recorded. DMSO (1%) was used as a solvent control. Each treatment consisted of 100 seeds and was repeated three times.

[0145] (2) Physiological indicators. Japonica rice (Nipponbare) was cultured in seedling boxes until 2 weeks of age, and then the plant surface was evenly sprayed with a concentration of 300, 600 and 1200 μg·mL. -1Black tiger extract was cultured at 30℃ under alternating light and dark conditions for 7 days, and the plant height and root length of rice plants in each treatment were measured. DMSO (1%) treatment was used as a solvent control. Forty rice plants were investigated for each treatment, and each treatment was repeated three times.

[0146] like Figure 1 As shown in Figure A, the result is 1200 μg·mL -1 600 μg·mL -1 and 300 μg·mL -1 The germination rate of rice seeds treated with high concentrations of black tiger extract was over 98%, which was not different from that treated with 1% DMSO.

[0147] like Figure 1 As shown in Figures B and C, the result indicates 1200 μg·mL -1 600 μg·mL -1 and 300 μg·mL -1 Rice plants treated with the concentration of black tiger extract showed no difference in morphological parameters (plant height, root length) compared to those treated with 1% DMSO.

[0148] The results showed that the black tiger extract at 1200 μg·mL⁻¹ was effective. -1 At concentrations of [specific concentration], it has no effect on the germination process of rice seeds or the physiological development of the plant, and is non-toxic to rice.

Twelve hours after inoculation, the conidia germination rate and appressorium formation rate were observed and tallied under a microscope.

[0155] (4) Statistics and analysis: Three fields of view were counted for each treatment, and 100 conidia were counted for each field of view. The number of germination and appressorium formation were investigated, and the conidia germination rate was calculated. The conidia germination rate of solvent treatment (1% dimethyl sulfoxide) was used as a control to calculate the inhibitory effect of the test sample on the germination of Aspergillus oryzae conidia.

[0267] (I) Isolation of the monomeric compound Antenylene

[0268] A suitable amount of distilled water was added to the black tiger extract HL1-B1 to disperse and mix it. The extract was then extracted three times sequentially with equal volumes of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, and n-butanol. The extracts were combined, and the solvents were removed by rotary evaporation under reduced pressure, and the samples were recovered, yielding petroleum ether extract, ethyl acetate extract, n-butanol extract, and aqueous extract of black tiger extract. Bioassays of the extracts for controlling rice blast were conducted, identifying the petroleum ether extract as the active component of the black tiger extract. The active components were then separated and purified using chromatographic techniques such as normal silica gel column chromatography.

[0269] Stage I column chromatography: The petroleum ether extract of the black tiger was crudely separated by normal-phase silica gel column chromatography with petroleum ether / ethyl acetate as the mobile phase (PE / EA, from 200 / 1 to 1 / 10, v / v), yielding 19 fractions (Fr. 1-Fr. 19). Bioassays identified Fr. 8 as the major active fraction.

[0270] Stage II column chromatography: Fr. 8 was separated into six subfractions (Fr. 8.1-Fr. 8.6) by normal-phase silica gel column chromatography with petroleum ether / ethyl acetate as the mobile phase (PE / EA, from 20 / 1 to 1 / 5, v / v). Bioassays confirmed Fr. 8.5 as the major active fraction.

[0271] Stage III column chromatography: Fr. 8.5 was purified by Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography with dichloromethane / methanol as the mobile phase (CH2Cl2 / CH3OH=1 / 1, v / v) to finally obtain monomeric compound A. After identification, compound A was identified as styrosinase, and its structural formula and NMR data are shown below:

[0274] (II) Inhibitory effect of monomeric compound styrosin on spore germination of different pathogens

[0275] To further investigate the inhibitory effect of the monomeric compound acetoxin isolated from the extract HL1-B1 of this invention on pathogens, all pathogens used in the above-mentioned experiments were selected for testing (blast fungus, aspergillus oryzae, late blight fungus, grape anthracnose fungus, cucumber anthracnose fungus, strawberry anthracnose fungus, litchi anthracnose fungus, corn ear rot fungus, strawberry wilt fungus, cucumber wilt fungus, pepper anthracnose fungus, pepper phytophthora, soybean phytophthora, camphor phytophthora, strawberry gray mold, tomato gray mold). Therefore, all pathogens were provided by the College of Plant Protection, China Agricultural University.

[0276] 1. Experimental Methods

[0277] The method for inhibiting the germination of spores of various pathogens is the same as the method for inhibiting bacteria using the extracts described above, and the specific process will not be repeated here. The concentrations of the monomeric compound anisodamine were prepared at 200 and 100 mg / L.

[0278] 2. Experimental Results

[0279] The results are shown in Table 16. "+" indicates that the inhibition effect at 200 mg / L is less than 40%, "++" indicates that the inhibition effect at 100 mg / L is 40-80%, and "+++" indicates that the inhibition effect at 100 mg / L is greater than 80%.

[0280] Table 16

[0281]

[0282] The above results indicate that the monomeric compound Anwuzhixin, at low concentrations (100 mg / L), exhibits an inhibitory effect of over 80% against *Anthracnose of cucumber*, *Anthracnose of grape*, *Anthracnose of corn*, *Blastomyces oryzae*, *Aspergillus oryzae*, and *Late Blight of potato*, demonstrating good control efficacy. However, its inhibitory effects on *Anthracnose of litchi*, *Phytophthora capsici* BYA5, *Gyromitra esculenta*, and *Gyromitra esculenta* are less pronounced, ranging from 40% to 80%. At high concentrations (200 mg / L), the inhibitory effect on *Anthracnose of strawberry*, *Fusarium wilt of strawberry*, *Fusarium wilt of cucumber*, *Anthracnose of pepper* Cs25, *Anthracnose of pepper* Cgg50, *Phytophthora soyensis*, and *Phytophthora camphorata* is less than 40%, showing some inhibitory effect, but the effect is poor. These results demonstrate that the monomeric compound Anwuzhixin obtained in this invention exhibits good inhibitory effects against some pathogens at low concentrations.

[0283] Anthracnose fungi of strawberry, lychee, strawberry wilt, cucumber wilt, pepper anthracnose Cs25, pepper anthracnose Cgg50, pepper Phytophthora BYA5, soybean Phytophthora, camphor tree Phytophthora, tomato gray mold, and strawberry gray mold, with spore germination inhibition effects below 80%, were further tested at higher concentrations (400 mg / L) of anthraquinone. The results are shown in Table 17 below. "+" indicates an inhibition effect below 40% at 400 mg / L; "++" indicates an inhibition effect of 40-80% at 400 mg / L; "+++" indicates an inhibition effect greater than 80% at 400 mg / L.

[0284] Table 17

[0285]

[0286] The above results indicate that, with increasing concentration, except for the cucumber wilt pathogen, pepper anthracnose pathogen Cs25, and pepper anthracnose pathogen Cgg50, whose inhibition effects remained below 40%, the strawberry anthracnose pathogen, tomato gray mold pathogen, and strawberry gray mold pathogen all showed inhibition effects above 80%. The litchi anthracnose pathogen, strawberry wilt pathogen, soybean phytophthora, and camphor phytophthora all increased to between 40% and 80%, indicating that the inhibition effect of these pathogens became better and better with increasing working solution concentration.

[0287] VI. Safety evaluation of the monomeric compound anthocyanin isolated from black tiger extract on rice.

[0288] (1) Seed germination. Healthy japonica rice (Nipponbare) seeds were selected and germinated with pesticides at concentrations of 300, 600, and 1200 μg·mL⁻¹. -1Rice seeds were soaked in acetone and cultured in the dark at 30℃ for 48 h. Germination was then observed and the germination rate was recorded. DMSO (1%) was used as a solvent control. Each treatment consisted of 100 seeds and was repeated three times.

[0289] Physiological indicators. Japonica rice (Nipponbare) was cultured in seedling trays for 2 weeks, and then the plant surface was uniformly sprayed with pesticides at concentrations of 300, 600, and 1200 μg·mL⁻¹. -1 After culturing rice plants in alternating light and dark conditions at 30℃ for 7 days, the plant height, root length, and fresh weight of each treatment were measured. DMSO (1%) was used as a solvent control. Forty rice plants were investigated for each treatment, and each treatment was replicated three times.

[0290] like Figure 2 As shown in Figure A, the result is 1200 μg·mL -1 600 μg·mL -1 and 300 μg·mL -1 The germination rate of rice seeds treated with acetoquinone was over 98%, which was not different from that of the 1% DMSO treatment.

[0291] like Figure 2 As shown in Figure B, the result is 1200 μg·mL -1 600 μg·mL -1 and 300 μg·mL -1 Rice plants treated with 1% DMSO showed no difference in morphological parameters (root length) compared to those treated with 1% DMSO.

[0292] The above experimental results show that acetaminophen at 1200 μg·mL -1 At concentrations of [specific concentration], it has no effect on the germination process of rice seeds or the physiological development of the plant, and is non-toxic to rice.
