The present disclosure relates to a composition for controlling plant diseases using a limonene derivative.
Rice is a plant of the class Monocotyledon, the order Glumineae, and the family Poaceae, and 23 different species have been known. Among these, the cultivars can be divided into Oryza sativa, which is cultivated mainly in Asia and widely spread worldwide, and Oryza glaberrima, which is cultivated in a part of West Africa. Oryza sativa can be divided largely into Oryza sativa ssp. indica group, which is cultivated in Southeast Asia including India and the Yangtze River in China, and Oryza sativa ssp. japonica, which is cultivated in Northeast Asia such as north of the Yangtze River, Korea, and Japan. More than half of the world population eats rice as a staple food, and in Asia, 40 to 70% of the calories consumed by food are from rice, and thus rice is a socially and economically important crop. Despite the significant progress in rice harvesting over the past three decades through the Green Revolution, there has been a loss in rice yield due to various kinds of natural disasters and diseases.
The major diseases that occur in rice are rice blast, rice sheath blight, rice bacterial leaf blight, etc. Rice bacterial leaf blight is a disease induced by a pathogenic fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, which belongs to Deuteromycetes. When rice is infected with the pathogen, small dark green spots are first formed on the leaves, and they gradually grow to become a fusiform lesion in which the inside is grayish white, the periphery is reddish brown, and the outer periphery of the lesion is yellow. In severe cases, the lesion is significantly expanded while maintaining its dark green color, thereby forming greenish powdery spores (conidium) on the back of the lesion.
Meanwhile, rice bacterial leaf blight is a bacterial disease caused by the pathogenic bacteria of rice bacterial leaf blight (Xanthomonas oryzae), which is a kind of gram-negative bacillus. The rice infected with rice bacterial leaf blight pathogens shows leaf blight symptoms and eventually it is burned white and become withered.
Rice bacterial leaf blight occurs in the area of Asia, Australia, the United States, etc., and in particular, the damage induced by rice bacterial leaf blight is very serious especially in Southeast Asia. Being first discovered in Fukuoka area in 1884, rice bacterial leaf blight was confirmed to be a disease caused by bacteria in 1911, and in recent years, this pathogen has been renamed as Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae through the analyses of fatty acids and cell proteins and its name has been used until now. The first case report of rice bacterial leaf blight in Korea was in Haenam province, Jeollanam-do in 1930, and the area with incidence of the rice bacterial leaf blight had been limited to some parts of the southern part of Korea until 1960, and then the area with incidence of this disease were expanded nationwide due to the expanded cultivation of “Geumnampung”, which is a susceptible species to rice bacterial leaf blight. The rice bacterial leaf blight was considered to be one of the three major diseases in rice, by showing not only its occurrences in leaves during the later stage of cultivation, but also showing the leaf blight forming symptoms that occurs after the transplanting, thus causing a loss of about 20% to 30%, and up to 80% of the yield.
In Korea, early infectious agents are wintering due to the presence of a winter season, and thus X. oryzae pv. oryzae can survive in soils, weeds, dry rice straws, seeds, etc. for up to one year, they are usually killed before a new farming season comes. However, wintering of early infectious agents is often observed in the susceptible seeds or embryos, and subsequently, latent pathogens are transferred to the rice field by irrigation water and infect rice, and then pathogens multiply in the infected leaves and often become secondary infectious agents. Among the weeds that are commonly found in waterways and reservoirs, when Leersia or Leersia japonica are in conditions being or not being able to cause the occurrence of a disease by pathogens, the bacteria flocculate around the roots of these weeds and enter the winter. When the irrigation water after thawing is flowed into the rice paddies, the bacteria flocculated around the roots are propagated by water and become the primary infectious source. Additionally, when the pathogens wintered inside of the dry rice straw (rice hull) that was infected in the previous year, these can be released into the rice paddies and become the primary infectious agents when they are sprayed on the rice fields. The pathogens which flowed into the soil by host plants or irrigation water gradually proliferate, penetrate into the water lines or pores of the leaves in contact with the water when the rice is transplanted and form lesions, and the pathogens which are released to the outside from the lesions or the released pathogens fall off into the paddy field or healthy leaves come into contact with the lesions to be infected. Where the pathogens penetrated into the leaves and formed lesions, many bacteria leak to the outside and become the second infectious source, and the spread of the disease is accelerated. Additionally, weather conditions such as typhoons and floods promote the occurrence of diseases. Typhoons can cause a lot of damage to rice leaves by strong winds, whereby pathogens can invade through the wounds caused and weaken the resistance, thereby promoting the onset of the disease. Many bacteria released from the lesions promote the contact with healthy leaves, and the pathogens released to the outside by the typhoon-accompanying rain may be scattered more than 50 m by the wind and become an infectious source.
At present, as a method for controlling the infectious source, it is very important to thoroughly manage the pavement such as the removal of host weeds from the rice paddies and waterways and the drainage system before crop reforestation, so as to eliminate the primary infectious agents. In areas of frequent occurrences or areas with a risk of occurrences every year, the cultivation of susceptible species is avoided and resistant species are planted for the fundamental prevention of the occurrence of diseases. Bacterial diseases are mostly transmitted by water as a mediator, and thus, it is necessary that lowlands are not flooded during floods or water be drained as soon as possible if water is flooded, so as to minimize the blocking with pathogens. In the case of control by drugs, the controlling effect by drug penetration is not high because rice bacterial leaf blight can grow only in the ducts of a host plant and thus the diseases are currently avoided by cultivating and nurturing of completely resistant cultivars. However, this cannot be a practical solution and has a limitation in that consumers' preferences are limited due to the limited supply of species. However, most drugs used for control are chemically-synthesized and these drugs have problems in that they have a negative impact on public health such as human and livestock in the case of a widespread use, are not environmentally-friendly, and raise concerns about the appearance of resistance in the pests. Accordingly, there is a demand for the environment-friendly active materials of natural components that can replace synthetic materials.
In the past, secondary metabolites in the plants were treated as metabolites to be simply excreted. However, recently, it has become increasingly apparent that secondary metabolites have an important role between plants and research on this area is becoming more important. In particular, unlike primary metabolites (sugars, fatty acids, amino acids, etc.) indispensable for the growth and development of plants, secondary metabolites such as alkaloids, phenols, terpenoids, etc. are additive materials and thus they do not significantly affect the growth of plants. Plants are biosynthesizing these secondary metabolites for self-defense, ecological interaction, etc. and they are called allelopathy. Depending on the materials synthesized and secreted or accumulated in a plant, the allelopathy may appear in the form of promoting and inhibiting the growth of specific plants or microorganisms, these materials are called allelochemicals and can be used as natural pesticides.
KR Reg. Pat. No. 10-0741866 discloses a composition that reduces the growth competition between crops and weeds through inhibiting seed germination of weeds via allelopathy. Most of these allelochemicals are contained in plant parts (i.e., leaves, stems, roots, flowers, fruits, and seeds), and the main materials are largely classified into toxic gases, organic acids and aldehydes, aromatic acids, unsaturated lactones, coumarins, quinones, flavonoids, tannins, alkaloids, terpenes, steroids, unknown materials, etc. They affect neighboring plants and microorganisms by various pathways, such as accumulation in the plant, secretion through the roots, volatility through the topical tissues such as leaves, elution of the allelochemicals due to rainfall, etc.
In this regard, the present inventors have confirmed that when rice is inoculated with Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), which is a pathogen mediating rice bacterial leaf blight, biosynthesis of terpene (i.e., a plant-derived antimicrobial material) is increased from the inoculated rice, and in particular, limonene is increased most among the terpenes, and have confirmed that limonene and derivatives thereof have an excellent effect of inhibiting growth of Xoo or M. oryzae, thereby completing the present invention.
One object of the present invention is to provide a composition for controlling plant diseases containing a limonene derivative as an active ingredient.
In order to achieve the objects, the present invention provides compositions, which contain limonene derivatives of Formula 1 to Formula 10 below as an active ingredient, for controlling a plant disease.
Additionally, the present invention provides methods for controlling plant diseases using limonene derivatives.
The limonene derivatives of the present invention have an effect of inhibiting the growth of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) (i.e., a pathogen mediating bacterial leaf blight, or Magnaporthe oryzae (i.e., a pathogen mediating rice blast). The limonene derivatives inhibit the growth of these pathogens by not only direct contact with pathogens but also indirect contact (i.e., volatilization) with pathogens.
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
The present invention provides a composition for controlling a plant disease, which contains at least one limonene derivative selected from the group consisting of the compounds represented by Formula 1 to Formula 10 below as an active ingredient:
The above compounds are carveol, carvone, and limonene oxides, and specifically, L-carveol, S-(+)-carvone, R-(−)-carvone, (+)-limonene oxide, (−)-limonene oxide, (S)-(−)-perillyl alcohol, α-terpineol, carvacrol, (−)-isopulegol, and (+)-isopulegol. More specifically, Formula 1 represents L-carveol, Formula 2 represents S-(+)-carvone, Formula 3 represents R-(−)-carvone, Formula 4 represents a (+)-limonene oxide, Formula 5 represents a (−)-limonene oxide, Formula 6 represents a (S)-(−)-perillyl alcohol, Formula 7 represents α-terpineol, Formula 8 represents carvacrol, Formula 9 represents (−)-isopulegol, and Formula 10 represents (+)-isopulegol.
The above plant disease may be rice bacterial leaf blight or rice blast, and the rice bacterial leaf blight may be induced by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), but the induction of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is not limited thereto, and the rice blast may be induced by Magnaporthe oryzae, but the induction of rice blast is not limited thereto.
The limonene derivative as an active ingredient may be contained at a concentration of 10 nM to 100 mM, but the concentration is not limited thereto.
The above compounds may be used in the form of an agro-pharmaceutically acceptable salt, and an alkali addition salt is useful as the salt to be used. The term “agro-pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to any organic or inorganic addition salt of alkali compounds of Formulas 1 of 10, which is in a concentration relatively that is not toxic to a subject to be treated and has a harmless effective action and does not deteriorate the advantageous effects of the alkali compounds of Formulas 1 to 10. These salts include alkali metal salts (e.g., sodium salt, potassium salt, etc.), alkaline earth metal salts (e.g., calcium salt, magnesium salt, etc.), etc. For example, alkaline, benzathine, calcium, choline, diethylamine, diol amine, glycine, lysine, magnesium, meglumine, olamine, potassium, sodium, tromethamine, zinc salt, etc. may be included.
Additionally, the compounds represented by Formulas 1 of 10 include not only agro-pharmaceutically acceptable salts, but also all of the hydrates and solvates which can be prepared by conventional methods.
The addition salt according to the present invention can be prepared by a conventional method. For example, the addition salt according to the present invention can be prepared by dissolving the compounds of Formulas 1 to 10 in a water miscible organic solvent (e.g., acetone, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, etc.), followed by precipitation or crystallization by adding an excess amount of an alkali. Then, an addition salt can be prepared by evaporating the solvent in the mixture followed by drying, or by subjecting the precipitated salt to suction filtration.
The limonene derivatives may be dissolved in any one or more selected from the group consisting of water, glycerin, propylene glycol, butylene glycol, pentylene glycol and sorbitol, mineral oil, lanolin oil, higher fatty acid, higher alcohol, ester oil, silicone oil, fluorine compound and other vegetable oil, mineral oil, animal oil, and synthetic oil.
The composition may be in the form of an aerosol-type spraying agent or a spraying agent for spray.
The composition may be one that can be used in a solid or gel form by adding a solidifying agent. The term “solid form” means that it does not have fluidity at least at room temperature, and in the present invention, the solid may mean that it does not have fluidity at a temperature of 60° C. or less. For solid formulations, the use of wax may be considered. When wax is mixed and cooled, a solid-type formulation having a high hardness while forming a fine three-dimensional crystal structure can be obtained. Additionally, when an oil gelling agent is mixed and dissolved in an oil and then cooled, a solid-type formulation having a high hardness while forming a fine three-dimensional crystal structure like the oil/wax formulation can be formed. Examples of the selectable solidifying agent, including the wax and oils, may include proteins or protein hydrolysates, cationic polysaccharides, modified starch, cellulosic and modified cellulose (e.g., hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, ethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, and ethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose), amide pectin, nonionic polysaccharides, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, propylene glycol alginate ester, gelatin, agar, phenol resin, urea, melamine, epoxy, polyester, silicone, rubber, polyisocyanate, polyamine, polyurethane, bioplastic, biodegradable thermosetting resin, biodegradable thermoplastic resin, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinylpyrrolidone derivatives thereof, gums (e.g., gum arabic, xanthan gum, guar gum, carrageenan, and alginate), and a polyoxyethylene polyoxypropylene copolymer.
The composition for controlling plant diseases according to the present invention may be a simple mixture of limonene derivatives. As an alternative, the composition for controlling plant diseases may be prepared by mixing limonene derivatives with an inert carrier, and adding surfactants and other necessary supplementary agents to the mixture, so that the mixture can be formulated into an emulsion, an emulsion, a fluidizing agent, wettable powder, granulated wettable powder, powders, granules, etc. In the present invention, the above-mentioned composition for controlling plant diseases itself may be used as an agent for treating seeds by adding another inert ingredient.

Examples of other supplemental agents may include water-soluble polymers such as polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinylpyrrolidone; polysaccharides such as gum arabic, alginic acid and salts thereof, carboxymethyl-cellulose (CMC), and xanthan gum; inorganic materials such as aluminum magnesium silicate, alumina sol, preservatives, and colorants; and stabilizers such as isopropyl acid phosphate (PAP) and butylhydroxytoluene (BHT).
The composition may be one that has a continuous control effect by volatilization of the limonene derivatives into the air.
In a specific embodiment of the present invention, it was confirmed that the limonene derivatives (i.e., L-carveol, S-(+)-carvone, R-(−)-carvone, (+)-limonene oxide, (−)-limonene oxide, (S)-(−)-perillyl alcohol, α-terpineol, carvacrol, (−)-isopulegol, and (+)-isopulegol) have an effect of directly inhibiting the growth of (Xoo) (

The treatment may be performed before spray, during spray, immediately after spray, during rice cultivation, before settling cultivation, during settling cultivation, and during growth after settling cultivation. In the soil treatment described above, the active ingredient may be simultaneously applied to the plant, or a solid fertilizer such as a paste fertilizer containing the active ingredient may be applied to the soil. The active ingredient may be mixed within the irrigation liquid, for example, may be injected into an irrigation facility (e.g., an irrigation tube, an irrigation pipe, a sprinkler, etc.), mixed in a flooding liquid between the furrows, or mixed in a water culture medium. As an alternative, the irrigation liquid and the active ingredient may be premixed, for example, may be used for treatment by suitable irrigation methods, including the irrigation methods described above and other methods such as spraying and flooding.
The volatilization treatment as the control method of the present invention is, for example, a method for protecting plants from pests and diseases by volatility of a composition for controlling plant diseases of the present invention, after spraying the composition in a medium such as the soil for the cultivation of a plant, a hydroponic culture medium for the cultivation of a plant, a seed bed, etc., and in addition, the composition may be placed around the plant so that the plant can be exposed to the volatile composition in a gas state.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to Examples.
The following Examples and Experimental Examples are provided only for illustrating the present invention, but the present invention is not limited by these Examples and Experimental Examples.
The pathogenic bacteria causing rice bacterial leaf blight (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae) were maintained in YGC (ATCC 459: glucose 5.0%, yeast extract 0.5%, CaCO3 1.25%, and agar 1.5%) plate medium, and a small amount of the bacterial population was cultured in 10 mL nutrient broth (peptone 0.5%, beef extract 0.3%) in a shaking water bath at 28° C. (180 rpm) for 48 hours. The culture was dispersed in sterile distilled water at a 1:1 ratio and diluted for use to an absorbance of 1.0 at 595 nm.
The culture bacterial liquid was inoculated with scissors on a rice plant grown on a Murashige and Skoog (MS) solid medium in a sterile transparent box at 28° C. under 24 hour light-dark cycle conditions (14 hours under light condition/10 hours under dark condition) for 1 week, and then cultured under the same conditions for 7 days. After incubation, the occurrence of the disease was examined and confirmed the disease symptoms by comparing the inoculated area with those of the control group.
The bacterial liquid cultured in Example 1-1 was inoculated with scissors on a rice plant grown on a Murashige and Skoog (MS) solid medium in a sterile transparent box at 28° C. under 24 hour light-dark cycle conditions (14 hours under light condition/10 hours under dark condition) for 1 week, and then cultured under the same conditions for 3 days. Three inoculated individuals of the same size and three healthy individuals as a comparative example were each transferred to a 20 mL glass bottle for GC analysis, and 1 mL of sterile water was added to the bottom of the glass bottle. The 20 mL glass bottle containing the plant was incubated under light condition for 24 hours and the volatile materials in the upper space of the sealed glass bottle were compared with those not infected with the pathogen. Sham individuals in which the leaf blades were cut-treated using sterile scissors were used as the uninfected individuals.
Specifically, volatile materials were collected from the upper end of the leaves at 50:30 μm divinylbenzene (DVB)/carboxen (CAR)/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-coated solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber (StableFlex 24Ga, Supelco, U.S.A.) at 25° C. for 60 minutes and then analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS)(Agilent 7890A; MSD 5957C) using the HP-5MS capillary column (0.25 mm i.d.×30 m, film thickness 0.25 μm) (Agilent Technologies, U.S.A.).
The constituting components and contents of each extract were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively by GC/MS, and the top ten components of each extract were selected and analyzed using the Wiley 8N Library program.
As a result, as shown in
The inhibitory effect of limonene and its derivatives, the contents of which increase in rice infected with rice bacterial leaf blight pathogen, against the growth of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) (i.e., a pathogen of rice bacterial leaf blight) were evaluated through Example 1.
Specifically, the experiment was prepared by plating Xoo on Wakimoto's Medium Without Potato (WF-P) solid medium (2% sucrose, 0.5% Bacto Peptone, 0.05% calcium nitrate, 0.082% sodium phosphate, 0.005% ferrous sulfate, 1.5% agar) followed by placing an 8 mm sterile paper disc thereon. Each of the limonene (S-(−)-limonene), carveol (L-carveol), and carvone (S-(+)-carvone) materials was treated onto the paper disc at a concentration of 10 mM, maintained in a 30° C. thermostat for 24 hours, and the degree of inhibition against the growth of Xoo was evaluated.
As a result, the inhibitory effect of limonene and its derivatives against the growth of Xoo was confirmed by treating them as shown in
In addition, limonene derivatives other than limonene, carveol, and carvone were evaluated for their inhibitory effect against the growth of Xoo.
Specifically, the experiment was prepared by plating Xoo on WF-P solid medium followed by placing an 8 mm sterile paper disc thereon. Each of the S-(−)-limonene, R-(+)-limonene, L-carveol, S-(+)-carvone, R-(−)-carvone, (+)-limonene oxide, (−)-limonene oxide, (S)-(−)-perillyl alcohol, α-terpineol, carvacrol, (−)-isopulegol, and (+)-isopulegol materials was treated on the paper disc at a concentration of 10 mM or 20 mM, respectively, maintained in a 30° C. thermostat under dark condition for 24 hours, and the degree of inhibition against the growth of Xoo was evaluated.
As a result, all of limonene and the derivatives of carveol, and carvone showed the inhibitory effect against the growth of Xoo as shown in
An attempt was made to confirm whether limonene and its derivatives, the contents of which increase when rice is infected with rice bacterial leaf blight pathogen, have the effects of inhibiting the growth of Xoo by volatility effect through Example 1.
Specifically, a WF-P solid medium was prepared in one compartment of a biplate, in which media were divided by a partition, and 10 μL of Xoo, which was adjusted to an OD value of 0.5, was inoculated at intervals of 1 cm and a sterile 8 mm paper disk treated with a material was disposed on the opposite side. As in Example 2, the treatment with a material was performed such that S-(−)-limonene, R-(+)-limonene, L-carveol, S-(+)-carvone, R-(−)-carvone, (+)-limonene oxide, and (−)-limonene oxide were treated on paper discs at a concentration of 10 mM, maintained in a 30° C. thermostat under dark condition for 24 hours, and the degree of inhibition against the growth of Xoo was evaluated.
As a result, as shown in
An attempt was made to confirm whether limonene and its derivatives have an inhibitory effect against the growth of plant pathogens of the genus Xanthomonas other than Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae by volatility effect through Example 3.
Specifically, experiments were performed in the same manner as in Example 3, for Xanthomonas fragariae (i.e., a pathogen of strawberry bacterial angular spot disease), Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycines (i.e., a pathogen of soybean bacterial pustule), and (i.e., a pathogen of rice bacterial leaf blight).
As a result, as shown in
The inhibitory ability of Magnaporthe oryzae, which is a pathogen of rice blast, was evaluated using L-carveol, S-(+)-carvone, R-(−)-carvone, (+)-limonene oxide, (−)-limonene oxide, (S)-(−)-perillyl alcohol, α-terpineol, carvacrol, (−)-isopulegol, and (+)-isopulegol of the present invention.
Specifically, a sterilized disc was placed on a potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium and Magnaporthe oryzae was inoculated on a spot 1.5 cm apart from the disc. Each of L-carveol, S-(+)-carvone, R-(−)-carvone, (+)-limonene oxide, (−)-limonene oxide, (S)-(−)-perillyl alcohol, α-terpineol, carvacrol, (−)-isopulegol, and (+)-isopulegol at a concentration of 500 mM (40 μl) was treated on top of the sterilized disc so as to confirm the growth inhibition of the pathogen. The treated medium was maintained in a 28° C. thermostat for 96 hours and the degree of growth inhibition was evaluated.
