BackgroundPokkah boeng is one of the most serious and devastating diseases of sugarcane and causes significant loss in cane yield and sugar content. Although carbendazim is widely used to prevent fungal diseases, the molecular basis of Fusarium species complex (FSC) resistance to carbendazim remains unknown.ResultsThe EC50 (fungicide concentration that inhibits 50% of mycelial growth) values of carbendazim for 35 FSC isolates collected in cane growing regions of China were ranged from 0.5097 to 0.6941 μg mL− 1 of active ingredient (a.i.), in an average of 0.5957 μg a.i. mL− 1. Among carbendazim-induced mutant strains, SJ51M (F. verticillioides) had a CTG rather than CAG codon (Q134L) at position 134 of the FVER_09254 gene, whereas in the mutant strain HC30M (F. proliferatum) codon ACA at position 351 of the FPRO_07779 gene was replaced by ATA (T351I). Gene expression profiling analysis was performed for SJ51M and its corresponding wild type strain SJ51, with and without carbendazim treatment. The gene expression patterns in SJ51 and SJ51M changed greatly as evidenced by the detection of 850 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Functional categorization indicated that genes associated with oxidation-reduction process, ATP binding, integral component of membrane, transmembrane transport and response to stress showed the largest expression changes between SJ51M and SJ51. The expression levels of many genes involved in fungicide resistance, such as detoxification enzymes, drug efflux transporters and response to stress, were up-regulated in SJ51M compared to SJ51 with and without carbendazim treatment.ConclusionFSC was sensitive to carbendazim and had the potential for rapid development of carbendazim resistance. The transcriptome data provided insight into the molecular pathways involved in FSC carbendazim resistance.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s12864-019-5479-6) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Pokkah boeng of sugarcane caused by Fusarium moniliformae and the pathogen was first described by Sheldon [2] and the perfect stage of pathogen is Gibberella fujikuroi (Sawada). Fusarium is now confirmed by several workers as a causal agent of Pokkah Boeng in sugarcane in Asia as well established pathogen by many workers [3][4][5]. Pokkah Boeng is the most serious and devastating disease not only in central Uttar Pradesh but also in the whole of the Southern and Northern sugarcane growing zone of India.…”

Zn, Fe, Cu and Mg) study of the sugarcane plant affected by the Pokkah Boeng showed the decreasing pattern in stalks and leaves of diseased plant as compared to healthy ones and its incidence have been noticed on broad leaves varieties of sugarcane during monsoon. This may lead to the reduction in weight of cane, length of internodes, juice percent, girth, pol percent and total sugars in juice in infected canes of varieties CoS 8436 and CoS 88230[3].…”

Sugarcane is one of the most important crops for the sugar production in India and Uttar Pradesh (UP) is the top on sugarcane while second in sugar production. Many biotic and abiotic stresses affected the sugarcane production among the reported diseases of sugarcane; Pokkah boeng is now playing a very important role due to its economic threats in UP. Recent survey during 2007-13 showed increasing trend of disease incidence and most of the commercial cultivars affected by the disease ranged from 1%-90%. Although Pokkah boeng comes under minor concern but these days it is going to be major on basis of their rapid epidemiology during last few years. Nowadays, the incidence and severity of Pokkah boeng disease has been reported from major sugarcane growing states like

“…Pokkah Boeng is a re-emerging disease of sugarcane which has been found recently to cause major yield losses in most sugarcane producing regions, including South Africa, Malaysia, India, and China (Lin et al, 2014; McFarlane and Rutherford, 2005; Sidique and Nordahliawate, 2007; Singh et al, 2006; Vishwakarma et al, 2013). Pokkah Boeng disease was first described by Walker and Went in 1896, and the name originates from a Javanese for ‘malformed top’ (Martin et al, 1989).…”

“…for Pokkah Boeng pathogen. Recent studies have suggested F. sacchari , F. fujikuroi , F. verticillioides , F. andiyazi , and F. proliferatum as the causal agents ( Lin et al, 2014 ; McFarlane and Rutherford, 2005 ; Sidique and Nordahliawate, 2007 ; Singh et al, 2006 ; Vishwakarma et al, 2013 ). This is in part due to the ambiguity of Fusarium taxonomy particularly in the Liseola section, which includes F. verticillioides , F. proliferatum and F. fujikuroi ( Leslie and Summerell, 2011 ).…”

Pokkah Boeng is a serious disease of sugarcane, which can lead to devastating yield losses in crop-producing regions, including southern China. However, there is still uncertainty about the causal agent of the disease. Our aim was to isolate and characterize the pathogen through morphological, physiological, and molecular analyses. We isolated sugarcane-colonizing fungi in Fujian, China. Isolated fungi were first assessed for their cell wall degrading enzyme capabilities, and five isolates were identified for further analysis. Internal transcribed spacer sequencing revealed that these five strains are Fusarium, Alternaria, Phoma, Phomopsis, and Epicoccum. The Fusarium isolate was further identified as F. verticillioides after Calmodulin and EF-1α gene sequencing and microscopic morphology study. Pathogenicity assay confirmed that F. verticillioides was directly responsible for disease on sugarcane. Co-inoculation of F. verticillioides with other isolated fungi did not lead to a significant difference in disease severity, refuting the idea that other cellulolytic fungi can increase disease severity as an endophyte. This is the first report characterizing pathogenic F. verticillioides on sugarcane in southern China.
