Study on the Contamination of Pseudomonas tolaasii in Oyster Mushroom

느타리버섯에서의 Pseudomonas tolaasii오염 연구

One hundred twenty five bacterial isolates were obtained from the brown blotch-diseased oyster mushrooms collected from markets. Among them, 45 were determined as pathogenic bacteria and white line forming organisms(WLFO) were 6 strains and white line reaction organisms (WLRO) were 6 strains. All of the white line forming isolates were identified as Pseudomonas tolaasii which is a known pathogen of brown blotch disease of oyster mushroom by GC-MIS(Gas chromatography-microbial identification system). Six of the white line reacting organisms were identified as P. chlomraphis, P. fluorescens biotype A and type C. The rest of them were P gingeri, P. agarici, P. fluorescens biotype B, P. chloroyaphis, non-pathogenic P. tolaasii, P. putida biotype A and B etc. For spectrum of activity of tolaasin, culture filtrates from pathogenic isolates were examined by browning of mushroom tissue and pitting of mushroom caps. The weak pathogenic bacteria didn't induce browning or pitting of mushroom tissue. On the other hand, strong pathogenic isolates showed browning and pitting reaction on mushroom. An extracellular toxin produced by P. tolaasii, was investigated. The hemolysis activity test of 6 strains identified as P. tolaasii were 0.8∼0.9 at 600 nm and 3 strains of WLRO were 0.9∼1.0 and Pseudomonas app. were 1.0∼1.2. Observation of fresh mushroom tissue using confocal laser scanning microscopy was carried out for images of optical sectioning and vertical sectioning. Also images of brown blotch diseased oyster mushroom tissue after contamination P. tolaasii was obtained by CLSM.

시장에서 수집한 갈변병에 감염된 느타리버섯으로부터 125 균주를 분리하였고 그 중 45 균주는 병원성 균주로 조사되었다. WLFO 6 strains, WLFO 6 strains으로 나타났고, WLRO의 몇 균주는 병원성 검정 실험에서 약한 병원성을 나타내기도 했다. WLFO 6균주는 모두 느타리버섯의 갈변병 주원인균으로 알려진 P. tolaasii로 미생물 신속 동성을 (MIDI, gas chromatograph-microbial identification system)에 의해 동정되었고 WLRO는 P. gingeri, P. fluorescens biotype A and type C. 로 동정되었다. 그 외의 선발된 Pseudomonas spp.는 P. gingeri, P. agarici, P. fluorescens biotype B, P. chloroaphis, non-pathogenic P. tolaasii, P. putida biotype A, B 등으로 동정이 되었다. 분리된 병원성 세균의 세포배양 여과액으로 버섯에서의 갈변과 조직 함몰을 실험하였다. 병원성 검정에서 약한 병원성을 보인 분리균들은 갈변 또는 조직함몰이 나타나지 않았으나 강한 병원성을 나타냈던 균들은 두 현상이 모두 나타났다. P. tolaasii에 의해서 생성되는 세포외독소인 tolaasin의 활성을 조사하기 위하여 600 nm에서 용혈 활성을 측정하였다. P. tolaasii로 동정된 6 균주는 0.8∼0.9, 약한 병원성의 WLROs는 0.9∼1.0 그리고 Pseudomonas spp.는 10∼1.2로 나타났다. 공초점 현미경 기술을 이용하여 신선한 버섯에서의 조직을 optical sectioning image와 vertical sectioning image로 관찰하였고 또한 P. toiaasii에 의하여 오염된 조직부위의 영상을 회득하였다.
