Alternatively fixed alleles:
• Two flower species (species 1 and species 2) can have one of two features:– Long (L) or short (s) leaves– Red ( R) or white (w) flowers
• Ten individuals from species 1 have the following traits:– LR; LR ;LR ;LR; LR; LR ;LR; sR; sR; sR
• Ten individuals from species 2 have the following traits:– sw; sw ;sw ;sw; sw; sw ;sw; Lw; Lw; Lw
Which one is the alternatively fixed
allele?• Both alleles will differentiate the groups (frequencies are significantly different)
• Only one will be diagnostic because alternatively fixed
• It is the color of the flower: all flowers in species 1 are R, all flowers in species 2 are w (“all” implies your sampling size is adequate!!)
Dominant vs. co-dominant markers
• Flowers are red or white or yellow, DNA sequence is agg, agt, agc; DNA fragment is 10, 12 0r 14 bp long (CO-DOMINANT, we know what alternative alleles are)
• Flowers are red or non-red, DNA is agg or not, size is 10bp or not. We only see the dominant allele and we express it in binary code 1(present), 0(absent)
Limitations of co-dominant markers
• Not all non-red flowers are the same, but we assume they are (non red flowers can be orange or yellow)
• If at one locus we have a dominant A allele and a recessive a allele, using a codominant marker we would say AA=Aa but not aa. We know in reality AA and Aa are quite different.
Genotype
• A unique individual as defined by an array of genetic markers. (the more markers you have the less mistaken identity you will have.

In the case of microbes it will
probably be something like• Genotype A= 01010101
• Genotype B= 00110101• Genotype C= 00010101
Summary of third lesson
• DNA polymorphisms can be diagnostic– Mutations/Sex/Barriers to mating
• Plant Diseases can be biotic (interaction between host and causal agent ), or abiotic
• Many organisms can cause plant diseases, but fungi are the No.1 cause
• Diversity of fungi, but all have ideal structure for plant infection:– hypha/cord/rhizomorph/infection peg/appressorium
– Sexual vs. asexual reproduction: can do both
ASCOASCOMYCETES
• Yeasts (fermentation, human Yeasts (fermentation, human mycoses)mycoses)
• Truffles, morelsTruffles, morels
• Penicillia (penicillin), Fusaria (potent toxins, damping off of seedlings), molds
Asci can be placed on a disk (apothecium), many apothecia can be
together in a fruitbody

BASIDIOBASIDIOMYCETES
• Mushrooms. mycorrhizal Mushrooms. mycorrhizal
• Wood decay organismsWood decay organisms
• Rusts, Smuts
• Yeasts and damping off
Oomycetes
• Belong to the kingdom Stramenopila, used to be called Chromista
• Phytophthora, Pythium, Saprolegnia
H20
Most of their lifecyclethey are 2n
Have cellulose in cellwall
Not fungi!!, but looklike them because of convergent evolution
Fungi do not photosynthesize
• Biotrophic: mycorrhyzae, rusts
• Endophites: clavicipetaceae, • Necrotrophic; most pathogens• Saprobes: primary (involved in litter decomposition)
host-pathogen-environment
• Susceptibility of individuals or of portions of individuals
• Genetic variability• Basic compatibility (susceptibility) between host and pathogen
• Ability to withstand physiological alterations
