Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin, causal fungus of clubroot disease of crucifers, includes various field popu lations with different pathogenicity. Although the races of these populations are usually identified using differential hosts as proposed by Williams16) and Buc zacki et al.2), these methods take a long time. We report ed recently that isozymes and cellular soluble proteins varied significantly among fifteen field populations from Japan. A part of these populations were clearly distin guishable from other populations on the basis of these variations 13). The development of DNA-based technologies is pro viding a plentiful array of additional genetic markers. Random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) have been useful for estimating genetic variation in a wide range of organisms, including plant pathogenic fungi. RAPDs may prove to be more useful for detecting genetic variation in P. brassicae populations than iso zyme and soluble protein analyses. In addition, RAPD PCR (polymerase chain reaction) uses an extremely small amount of DNA sample. We suggested previously that some RAPD primers might be available for the detection of genetic variability among P. brassicae populations6). Moller and Harling9) have also applied RAPDs in distinguishing P. brassicae isolates, but they examined only three isolates of the fungus. In the pres ent paper, we evaluate genetic variation in 16 popula tions of P. brassicae from Japan using RAPD-PCR. Sixteen field populations of P. brassicae were obtained from clubroot galls of Chinese cabbage, cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli which were collected from sixteen fields in seven prefectures of Japan (Table 1). Of these populations, 13 were identified as Williams'16) race 4, two as race 9 and one as race 1. Five have been confirmed to be pathogenic and eleven to be nonpatho genic to clubroot-resistant (CR) cultivars of Chinese cabbage11,12,unpubllshed data) Clubroot galls were stored at -40•Ž until preparation of resting spores. Resting spores (1•~1010 spores) of each population prepared from clubroot galls6) were suspended in 2ml of extraction buffer (150mM EDTA and 50mM Tris-HCI, pH8.0) and vortexed together with 1g of glass beads for 6min in order to disrupt the resting spores. Genomic DNA was purified from the homogenate by the method described previously6). Twenty primers (OPA01 to 20) were obtained from kit A (Operon Technologies, Alameda, CA, USA) and 12 primers (A01 to 12) from DNA Oligomer (12) Set A-1 (Wako Pure Chemical, Osaka, Japan). The PCR amplification and the detection of its products were fundamentally performed according to Williams et al.15). Amplification reactions were performed in 25 ul of a solution containing 25ng of genomic DNA, 2.5ƒÊl of 10•~ Reaction buffer (attached to polymerase kit), 2.5 U of Takara Taq polymerase (Takara, Japan), 200•~ƒÊM each of dCTP, dGTP, dATP and dTTP and 0.4ƒÊM of primer. Amplification was carried out in an Astec Thermal Cycler PC-700 and PC-800, programmed for 40 cycles that consisted of 1 min at 94•Ž, 2min at T•Ž, and 1min at 73•Ž. Here, T is the optimum annealing temperature for each primer, 34•Ž for A01; 38•Ž for A02, 04; 40•Ž for A03, 05-08; 36•Ž for A09, 11; 42•Ž for A10; 32•Ž for A12; 29•Ž for OPA01-20. A 10ƒÊl sample of the amplification products was resolved by electrophoresis in a 1.2% (w/ v) agarose gel and detected by staining with ethidium bromide. All amplification reactions and electrophoretic runs of test samples included the sample from the population HAl as reference. The examination was repeated at least two times for each sample. Thirty-one of 32 primers generated PCR amplification products; 29 of them gave reproducible electrophoretic banding patterns which showed polymorphisms among the 16 tested field populations of P. brassicae. On the other hand, the primer A02 gave no amplification prod uct, and the other two primers, OPA01 and 06, also gave very faint products. Simple patterns with four to five bands were most frequently observed. The primer A12
