What are Fungi? • • • Eukaryotic Have a cell wall with Chitin Heterotrophic Absorptive nutrition Produce spores Many have a network of tubes (hyphae) form a mycelium Mycelium Tube-like Cell structure
Fungi are their own kingdom Plants Animals gi n Fu Barton et al. Evolution
Fungi are not plants • Plants make their own nutrition (sugar) from light and water via photosynthesis. • Fungi are more similar to and related to animals than they are to plants, and fungi must obtain nutrients from other organisms.
Heterotrophy • Obtain nutrition by absorbing nutrients found or produced by other organisms. Corn Pathogen (Huitlacoche) Animal Horn decaying fungus Cheese associate (Blue cheese)
What do Fungi do? Many ecological roles: • Plant pathogen • Decompose • Mycorrhizae – root associates • Animal pathogens
Fungi and Food • Plant Pathogens • Food Spoilage Impact on plant based food production • Mycorrhizae • Fermentation Fungi as foods • Edible Mushrooms
PLANT PATHOGENS
Plant Pathogenic Fungi • Fungi are the most important (=biggest) group of plant pathogens. • Pathogens are infectious agents that cause disease in their hosts. • There are more than 8, 000 known fungal plant pathogens.
Key Concept #1 The production of almost all the plantbased food that you eat is impacted by at least one major fungal disease (and therefore prevention).
Top 10 most important plant pathogenic fungi* (and their hosts) 1. Magnaporthe oryzae (Rice, see following slide) 2. Botrytis cinerea (multiple hosts) 3. Puccinia spp. (Wheat) 4. Fusarium graminearum (Cereals) 5. Fusarium oxysporum (Many crops) 6. Blumeria graminis (Wheat and Barley) 7. Mycosphaerella graminicola (wheat) 8. Colletotrichum spp. (Many crops) 9. Ustilago maydis (Corn) 10. Melampsora lini (Flax) *According to Dean et al. 2012 Molecular Plant Pathology
Examples of Plant Pathogens
Rice Blast • Magnaporthe oryzae • Estimated to kill enough rice to feed 60 million people every year. • Resistant to both chemical treatments and genetic modifications to rice
Ergot of Rye • Claviceps purpurea • Causes Ergotism: • Convulsive – seizures, spasms, psychosis, nausea • Vasoconstrictive - gangrene, edema, low blood pres. • Historical significance – St. Anthony’s Fire, Salem Witch Trials Ergotamine Ergometrine Sclerotium of C. purpurea
Painting by Matthias Grünewald of a patient suffering from advanced Ergotism from approximately 1512– 16 CE
Fungicides • Fungicides are chemicals that kill fungi (used in agricultural settings). • Most (non-organic) vegetables and fruits produced in the US have been sprayed with at least one fungicide.
Fungicide Usage (in 2005) Wheat, Corn, Barley, Oats, etc. Phillips Mc. Dougall. 2006. Phillips Mc. Dougall Agriservice Report. Pathhead, Midlothian, Scotland, UK
What types of management practices could limit fungal disease in agricultural crops? • • Fungicides Avoidance of infected sites Crop Rotation Breed host resistance (Traditional or GMO) Irrigation practices Limit Moisture!! Row spacing Timing of planting Biocontrol (Bacteria)
FOOD SPOILAGE
• Food spoilage occurs during post-harvest and storage of crops and foods. • Fungi that cause food spoilage often produce secondary compounds that are active in humans.
Examples of Fungi in Food Spoilage
Aflatoxins • Aspergillus spp. • Some of the most toxic compounds produced by fungi. Carcinogenic! Liver damage and liver cancer. • Contaminate foods before harvest or during storage. • Frequently found in food crops such as peanuts and corn.
Fruit and Bread Molds • Penicillium spp. Produce many types of antibiotics (including Penicillin) • Rhizopus stolonifer
Maple Syrup Fungus • Wallemia sebi • Xerophilic – “Dry loving” • Osmotolerant – can grow in high concentration solutions (high sugar or salt concentrations) Kent Loeffler
MYCORRHIZAE
Key Concept #2 Not all fungi have negative impacts on plants. Many fungi help plant growth or prevent animal herbivory.
Root Associates • A mycorrhiza is a specialized association between a fungus and the roots of a plant. • Nutrients are exchanged between the fungus and the plant: Sugars H 2 O, Micronutrients (e. g. Phosphorus) • Two major types of mycorrhizae exist. One of these types predominate in temperate forests, and the other in grasslands and tropical forests.
Examples of Arbuscular Mycorrhiza in Crop Production
Flax • Flax is used in both food and linen production • Flax is dependent on its mycorrhizal association “Tree-shaped” structures are the fungus growing into flax root cells.
Corn • Studies have shown corn with mycorrhizae show: – Increased salt tolerance – Improvement in low temperature stress
FERMENTATION
Key Concept #3 Fungi have been used in food production for thousands of years.
Examples of Fungi in Fermentation
Yeast • Saccharomyces cerevisae • They are unicellular and some can live in low oxygen environments. • They use sugars and give off carbon dioxide (CO 2) through respiration - this is how yeasts make bread rise. • Bread, wine, beer, etc.
Cheese • Some cheeses are “ripened” using Penicllium and other fungi. • Blue cheese, Camembert, Brie, Gorgonzola, etc.
Other Fermented Foods Meju – Essential Korean Cooking Paste (Aspergillus oryzae) Red Yeast Rice – Tempeh – Fermented Soy Cake (Rhizopus spp. ) Chinese Food Coloring (Monascus)
EDIBLE MUSHROOMS
Agaricus bisporus • Cremini, portobello, baby bella, button mushroom, champignon mushroom. • More than $800 million produced/ year.
Truffles • Edible truffles – Tuber spp. • “Black diamonds” • Harvested using pigs, dogs, or a truffle rake.
“Trufficulture”
Wild mushroom hunting
Key Concepts • The production of almost all the plant-based food that you eat is impacted by at least one major fungal disease. • Not all fungi have negative impacts on plants. Many fungi help plant growth. • Fungi have been used in food production for thousands of years.
