Pythium ultimum var. ultimum was isolated from carrot seedlings with damping off and from soil in a greenhouse on Spitsbergen Island, Svalbard. The fungus caused severe damping off of carrot, cucumber and tomato seedlings after artificial inoculation. The rDNA ITS sequences were identical to isolates from Canadian and Japanese isolates. The pathogen in the greenhouses on Svalbard was probably introduced from temperate regions. This is the first record of P.ultimum var. ultimum with in the Artic zone

In 1996, 7000 ha of pine forests were defoliated by the pine looper Bupalus piniaria in south-western Sweden.The susceptibility of trees of different defoliation classes (0, 30, 60, 90 and 100% defoliation) to beetle-vectored blue-stain fungi was tested in inoculation experiments.Forty and 120-year-old Scots pine trees were inoculated with `single\", i.e. a few inoculations of Leptographium wingfieldii and Ophiostoma minus, two blue-stain fungi associated with the pine shoot beetle Tomicus piniperda. The young trees were also \"mass\" inoculated with L. wingfieldii at a density of 400 inoculation points per m2 over a 60 cm stem belt.Host tree symptoms indicated that only trees with 90100% defoliation were susceptible to the mass inoculation.Single inoculations did not result in any consistent differences in fungal performance between trees of different defoliation classes, regardless of inoculated species or tree age class.Leptographium wingfieldii produced larger reaction zones than O. minus, and both species produced larger lesions in old than in young trees.As beetle-induced tree mortality in the study area occurred only in totally defoliated stands, mass inoculations seem to mimic beetle-attacks fairly well, and thus seem to be a useful tool for assessing host resistance.As even severely defoliated pine trees were quite resistant, host defence reactions in Scots pine seem to be less dependent on carbon allocation than predicted by carbon-based defence hypotheses.

The anatomical response of Norway spruce bark polyphenolic parenchyma cells (PP cells) to inoculation with the phytopathogenic fungus Ceratocystis polonica and attack by its bark-beetle vector Ips typographus was examined.Fungal inoculation on the periderm surface had no effect, while inoculation just below the periderm or halfway into the phloem (mid-phloem) generated detectable responses within 3 wk. The responses included increase in PP cell size and in periodic acid - Schiffs staining of PP cell phenolics, wound periderm initiation from PP cells, and cambial zone traumatic resin duct formation. Fungi were not seen in samples 3 wk after subperiderm or mid-phloem inoculation, but were found in some samples 6 and 9 wk after mid-phloem inoculation.In contrast, inoculations into the cambium resulted in partial (3 wk) or complete (6 and 9 wk) fungal colonization and death of tissue in the infected area. This indicates that PP cells have defenses capable of inhibiting fungal growth. Samples taken near bark-beetle galleries had similar anatomical responses as inoculated samples, validating the inoculation approach to studying defense responses in spruce.These results show that PP cells represent not only a constitutive defense system, but are also involved in local and remote inducible defenses against fungal and beetle attack.
