| Popis: | Genetic structure of the European Gremmeniella abietina var. abietina was analyzed in this study. Ninety-two Spanish isolates, six Swiss isolates of Alpine biotype, 76 Finnish isolates of biotype A and 54 Finnish and seven Russian isolates of biotype B were collected. Genetic variation of different populations was analyzed using sequence analysis of specifically amplified markers GAAA1000, GAAA800 and ACA900. Variation in the GAAA1000 marker was significant, and composed of 33 alleles divided into the following four studied populations: five alleles in the Alpine type, 12 in biotype B, 16 in biotype A and two in the Spanish population. Based on variation in GAAA1000 marker, a subset of isolates were further analyzed using GAAA800 and ACA900 sequences, which showed lower overall genetic variability, and no variation among the Spanish population. Genetic differentiation analysis revealed a high genetic differentiation among populations. Finally, clustering analysis of GAAA1000 sequences showed that the Spanish isolates clearly separated from the rest of the biotypes, whereas the Alpine type was closely related to the B type. However, one of the A-type isolates had an identical GAAA1000 allele with the prevailing allele among Spanish isolates. Altogether, our data suggest that the Spanish population is genetically highly differentiated from any other G. abietina population in Europe with a probable A-type origin. |
