“…Potato (Solanum tuberosum) cultivar Indira, developed resistance against Phytophthora infestans after exposure to eCO 2 (700 ppm) (Plessl et al, 2007). Thus, under eCO 2 , plants undergo changes in physiology, anatomy and morphology that increase their resistance to pathogens (Yáñez-López et al, 2012).…”

“…As soil micriobial communities play important role in C dynamics, any alteration in structure or function of microbial communities is likely to influence soil Cstorage. Further, altered plant-pathogen interactions under eCO 2 , which may influence soil C-sequestration potential directly or indirectly need to be understood (Yáñez-López et al, 2012). According to O'Neill (1994) the global fate and effects of the additional C under eCO 2 in the ecosystem is likely to be determined by soil biota.…”

“…Increased global trade, together with climate change and the limitations in plant protection products, has favoured the emergence and establishment of new plant diseases which, in turn, cause significant crop losses (Lamichhane et al, ; Yáñez‐López et al, ). Fruit production, for instance, is threatened by several bacterial plant diseases such as the bacterial canker of kiwifruit caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv.…”

The use of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) to control multiple pathogens that affect different crops was studied, namely, Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae in kiwifruit, Xanthomonas arboricola pv. pruni in Prunus and Xanthomonas fragariae in strawberry. A screening procedure based on in vitro and in planta assays of the three bacterial pathogens was successful in selecting potential LAB strains as biological control agents. The antagonistic activity of 55 strains was first tested in vitro and the strains Lactobacillus plantarum CC100, PM411 and TC92, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides CM160 and CM209 were selected because of their broad‐spectrum activity. The biocontrol efficacy of the selected strains was assessed using a multiple‐pathosystem approach in greenhouse conditions. L. plantarum PM411 and TC92 prevented all three pathogens from infecting their corresponding plant hosts. In addition, the biocontrol performance of PM411 and TC92 was comparable to the reference products (Bacillus amyloliquefaciens D747, Bacillus subtilis QST713, chitosan, acibenzolar‐S‐methyl, copper and kasugamycin) in semi‐field and field experiments. The in vitro inhibitory mechanism of PM411 and TC92 is based, at least in part, on a pH lowering effect and the production of lactic acid. Moreover, both strains showed similar survival rates on leaf surfaces. PM411 and TC92 can easily be distinguished because of their different multilocus sequence typing and random amplified polymorphic DNA profiles.

“…Climate changes exert considerable influence on all ecosystem elements, including pathogens, as the extent of their incidence is directly dependent on weather conditions in any current season and across the multiannual periods (Yáñez-López et al 2012). It therefore appears that the observations of the type as described in the present paper have their special merit within cold areas, among them in the high mountains and in polar regions, where the influence of climate alterations is most evident (Ruotsalainen et al 2004, Pehkonen and Tolvanen 2008).…”

Plants’ healthiness assessment as part of the environmental monitoring of protected mountainous area in the example of Karkonosze (Giant) Mts. (SW Poland)

The aim of phytopathological monitoring is to check the healthiness of plants and observe the changes that occur in their populations. In the vast majority, these types of observations are conducted in agriculture and forestry. An interesting aspect of phytopathological monitoring is the assessment of the origin of the plant species. The research of fungal communities (including pathogens) in plants may, for example, indicate the relic nature of the plant species. Reduction of the occurrence or disappearance of fungi species associated with its host plant can evidence slow decline of their habitats. This applies mainly to arctic-alpine fungal species. On the other hand, for some plant hosts, colonization of their organs by polyphagous fungi is being recorded. One such example is the downy willow, on which six species of fungi were found in the Karkonosze Mts. In 2014, there were no fungi found on this plant. However, comparing the species composition of fungi associated with downy willow given by Schroeter (1908) to the contemporary one and to the study results of other researchers, a decrease in the number of fungi species is clearly visible. This may be related to the environmental pollution, which took place in the Sudetes in the second half of the twentieth century. For instance, the species of the genus Rhytisma colonize the leaves of trees and shrubs and are particularly sensitive to the concentration of SO 2 in the air, but nobody has looked for this fungus on this host in the past. Yet, presently, we were able to find Rhytisma fungus in Karkonosze Mts. Phytopathological monitoring was conducted in the years of 2014-2015 in the sub-alpine zone of the Karkonosze (Giant) Mts. It has been shown that, compared to similar studies conducted in the 1990s of the twentieth century, the species composition of fungi infesting Rubus chamaemorus and Betula carpactica has changed. Is this the beginning of changes that will occur in populations of plants?
