Introduction

What is Climate Change?
  • It refers to any change in climate over time,
    whether due to natural variability or as a result
    of human activity (IPCC, 2007).
  • Climate change refers to a change of climate that
    is attributed directly or indirectly by human
    activity that alters the composition of the
    global atmosphere and climate variability
    observed over comparable time periods.
  • Climate encompasses the long-run pattern of
    numerous meteorological factors (e.g.
    Temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure,
    wind, rainfall, sunshine etc.) in a given
    location or larger region. (Gutierrez et al.
    2010)

  • Plant diseases are a significant reduce the
    production of more than 25 crops that stand
    between the rapidly expanding world population
    and starvation.
  • World-wide losses from diseases range from 9 to
    16 in rice, wheat, barley, maize, potato,
    soybean, cotton and coffee. In USA alone,
    fungicides worth over US 11.2 billion for
    control diseases. (Agrios, 2005)
  • Plant diseases will respond to climate change,
    through a number of interactions, take place
    among host, pathogen, potential vectors.

7
  • The Great Irish Hunger is one striking example of
    the impact of plant disease In 1845 more than a
    quarter million Irish people starved as the
    result of an epidemic of potato late blight.
  • Plant diseases continue to cause serious problems
    in global food production. Currently more than
    800 million people do not have adequate food and
    at least 14 of global food production is reduced
    due to plant diseases (Agrios, 2005).

  • Fungi
  • Bacteria
  • Virus
  • Mycoplasmas
  • Nematodes
  • Parasitic Plant

Plant Pathogen
The very different life histories of this diverse
group of organisms and their different
interactions with host plants produce a wide
range of responses to environmental factors.
For example Fungal pathogens are often strongly
dependent on humidity or dew for plant
infection. viruses may be present in hosts while
symptom expression is dependent on temperature.

Change in Global Climate
17
  • A portion of the radiation reaching to earths
    surface which is scattered or reflected by
    clouds, aerosols, dust and other particles.
  • Radiation reaching the planet is partly
    absorbed, causing the Earth to emit thermal
    radiation and part of the radiation is reflected
    back to the atmosphere.
  • Water vapour and radioactively active CO2, CH4,
    N2O and O3 etc. partly trap the reflected
    radiation to warm the surface temperature, a
    natural phenomenon known as the Greenhouse
    Effect.

How Climate Change affect Plant Diseases?
Mechanism of Climate Change on diseases
26
Elevated CO2
  • Affect physiology of host pathogen interaction
  • Increase in canopy density (gtfoliar diseases)
  • Increase in moisture stress (gtdry root rot)
  • Increase in severity/fecundity ( gtanthracnose)

27
  • In soybean, elevated concentration of CO2 and O3
    altered the expression of three soybean diseases,
    namely downy mildew (Peronospora manshurica),
    brown spots (Septoria glycines) and sudden death
    syndrome (Fusarium virguliforme.
  • High levels of CO2 alone or in combination with
    high concentration of O3, increased the severity
    of Septoria leaf spots.
  • Effect of elevated concentrations of CO2 has also
    been evaluated on two important diseases of rice,
    namely blast (Pyricularia oryzae) and sheath
    blight (Rhizoctonia solani) and rice plants were
    found more susceptible to injury.
  • The severity of downy mildew damage was
    significantly reduced at high levels of CO2
  • Changes brought by high CO2 concentration like
    reduced stomatal density, production of papillae
    and accumulation of silicon at the sites of
    appressorial penetration and changed leaf
    chemistry increased resistance to powdery mildew
    (Blumeria graminis) in barley.

28
Temperature and moisture
  • Increased host susceptibility
  • Rust reaction of wheat varieties with the stem
    rust resistance gene Sr15 can change from
    resistant at 15OC to nearly fully-susceptible at
    20OC
  • Phytophthora on Pigeonpea, Soyabean
  • Rust on groundnut
  • More rapid/new development of pathogen
  • Pathogens on chickpea, groundnut
  • UG 99 stem rust of wheat
  • Rhizoctonia in chickpea
  • More rapid vector development
  • Vector of viral diseases of rice
  • Vector (Toxoptera sp.) of Citrus tristeza virus

29
  • Increased over summering/overwintering of
    pathogen/vector
  • Barley Yellow dwarf
  • Oospore of sunflower downy mildew
  • Chlamydospore of pigeonpea wilt
  • Charcoal rot of sorghum
  • Increased pathogen transmission
  • Fusarium spp. in Chickpea, Pigeonpea
  • New diseases/minor diseases can become major
  • False Smut Rice
  • Virulent forms of pathogens
  • Vulnerability of present day host cultivars

30
  • There are indications of increased aggressiveness
    at higher temperatures of stripe rust isolates
    (Puccinia striiformis), suggesting that rust
    fungi can adapt to and benefit from higher
    temperatures.
  • Higher risk of dry root rot has been reported in
    Fusarium wilt chickpea-resistant varieties in
    those years when the temperature exceed 330C.
  • Temperature sensitivity to resistance has been
    reported for leaf rust (Puccinia recondita) in
    wheat, broomrape (Orobanche cumana) in sunflower,
    black shank (Phytophthora nicotianae) in tobacco
    and bacterial blight (Xanthomonas oryzae pv.
    oryzae) in rice.
  • Drought stress has been found to affect the
    incidence and severity of viruses such as Maize
    dwarf mosaic virus and Beet yellows virus.

31
Major impact on air borne pathogens
EVENT EFFECT
Rains floods Increased frequency of attacks
Storms Long distance migration of spores
Warming Overwintering of pathogen More generations/season Prolonged contact with host
32
Effects of Climate Change on Host Plant
33
Elevated CO2
Change in plant structure
  • Plant organs may increase in size which enhanced
    photosynthesis and increased water use efficiency
    by that many foliar pathogens benefit from denser
    plant growth resulting more humid microclimate.
  • It favours the pathogen to interact with the
    hosts.

34
Elevated Temperature
  • When high-temperature stress is developed, plant
    responses may be similar to those induced by
    water stress, with symptoms expressed as
  • Wilting,
  • Leaf burn,
  • Leaf folding,
  • Abscission,
  • Physiological responses
  • RNA metabolism and protein synthesis,
  • Enzymes
  • Iso enzymes
  • Plant growth hormones
  • these changes will certainly affect
    susceptibility to pathogens.

35
Elevated Ozone
  • Change the structure of leaf surfaces
  • Altering the physical topography
  • The chemical composition of surfaces, including
    the structure of epicuticular wax.
  • These changes in leaf structure may alter leaf
    surface properties such as leaf wettability and
    the ability of leaves to retain solutes.
  • All influencing the ability of pathogens to
    attach to leaf surfaces which enhance attacks on
    plants by necrotrophic fungi.

Free air enrichment (FACE) apparatus
  • FACE experiments allow for the study of elevated
    atmospheric CO2 on agricultural crops, forest
    trees and plant ecosystems grown under natural
    conditions.
  • FACE facilities have been developed and deployed
    from those on the scale of 12m for low-stature
    crops or ecosystems to those of 1020m diameter
    for field crop evaluation to those for young-to
    medium-aged forest stands and finally to mature
    trees of basically any size.
  • FACE research in some Agricultural crops
  • SoyFACE, Illinois, USA
  • Rice (Rice FACE, Shizukuishi, Japan)
  • Grapes (Rapolano Mid FACE, Chianti Region, Italy)

Study Effect Author
The relative importance of canopy size and induced resistance to Colletotrichum gloeosporioides at atmospheric CO2 concentrations of 350 and 700 ppm on Susceptible Stylosanthes scabra in a controlled environment facility in the field. Up to twice as many lesions per plant were produced in the high CO2 plants, because the enlarged canopy trapped many more pathogen spores. Pangga et al. (2004)

Host Resistance
Host Resistance
57
  • Cockley et al. (1999) mentioned that durability
    of resistance may be threatened by number of
    infection cycle of pathogen within a growing
    season increased because of one or more following
    factors like
  • Increase fecundity
  • More pathogen generation per season,
  • More sustainable microclimate for disease
    development
  • this may leads to more aggressiveness of the
    pathogen races.
  • Foliar pathogens have lower infection under
    drought situation, due to lack of required leaf
    wetness for spore germination (Chowdappa, 2010).
  • In case of soil borne Sclerotium rolfsii
    infesting groundnut, it has been observed that at
    35 OC resistance variety breakdown and show
    susceptibility (Mayee, 1996).

58
Chemical control
Chemical Control
59
Chemical control may largely affected by climate
change in two way changes in temperature and
precipitation. It may alter the dynamics of
fungicide residue on the foliage of crop.
Morphological and physiological changes in plant
resulting from growth under elevated CO2 could
affect up take, translocation and metabolism of
systemic fungicides.
Change in duration, intensity and frequency of
rainfall events would impact on the effectiveness
of chemical control measures
60
QUARANTINE AND EXCLUSION
Management of climate change will put additional
pressure on agencies responsible for exclusion as
a plant disease control strategy. Use of
Geographical Information Systems and climate
matching tools may assist quarantine agencies in
determining the threat posed by a given pathogen
under current and future climates.

  • Effects of climate change in India
  • Agriculture
  • Up to 50 reduction in maize yields
  • 4-35 reduction in rice yields (with some
    exceptions)
  • Rise in coconut yields (with some exceptions)
    reduced apple production
  • Negative impacts on livestock in all regions
  • Fresh water supply
  • High variability predicted in water yields (from
    50 increase to 40-50 reduction)
  • 10-30 increased risk of floods increased risks
    of droughts
  • Forests and natural ecosystems
  • Increased net primary productivity
  • Shifting forest borders, species mix, negative
    impact on livelihoods and biodiversity
  • Human health
  • Higher morbidity and mortality from heat stress
    and vector/water-borne diseases
  • Expanded transmission window for malaria

62
  • Overall risks posed to India
  • Food security - predominantly monsoon dependent
    and rain-fed agriculture
  • Water security - glacier-fed river and stressed
    ground water systems
  • Coastal security - 7,000 km long, densely
    populated coastline vulnerable Andaman Nicobar
    and Lakshwadeep islands
  • Livelihood security - natural resource-dependent
    rural communities
  • Energy security - climate change further
    complicated by our dependence on coal (50 of
    total energy mix)

63
  • Regional security challenges
  • India is surrounded by institutionally weak and
    highly vulnerable states
  • Maldives (pop. 300,000) over 80 of country lt1m
    above MSL
  • Bangladesh (pop. 160 m) 1m rise in sea-level can
    inundate 17.5 of its land area and 11 of its
    population
  • Greater number of IDPs but considerable risks of
    climate-induced transboundary migration
  • Tensions over river-water sharing with Pakistan,
    Bangladesh, Nepal and China
  • Tensions over shifting coastal and maritime
    borders resulting from sea-level rise.
  • Effects of climate change in AN and Lakshwadeep
    islands can potentially impact Indias power
    projection ability in the wider region

64
Adaptation Measure for Climate Change
  • Integrated pest management
  • Using available early warning system for
    diseases.
  • Biological control measures.
  • Utilization of indigenous traditional knowledge
    base for disease control.
  • Soil solarization technique
  • Breeding for disease, pest and drought resistance
    varieties.
  • Careful tracking of geographical distribution of
    plant virus diseases and their vectors.
  • Phytosanitary regulations to prevent or limit the
    introduction to risky plant pathogens.

65
Conclusion
  • Climate systems may change more rapidly than in
    the past.
  • If changes in atmospheric composition and global
    climate continue in the future as predicted,
    there will be relocation of crops and their
    diseases and impacts will be felt in economic
    terms from crop loss.
  • Changes in level of CO2 and O3 will influence
    disease by modifying host physiology and
    resistance.
  • Changes in temperature and precipitation will
    influence disease epidemiology.
  • Survival, longitivity and aggressiveness are
    increased with passage of time due to change in
    climatic condition.
  • Best management will be from exclusion or early
    detection and elimination wherever it is possible.

66
Future thrust
  • Current strategies for management need to
    modified accordingly.
  • Development and validation of weather based
    disease forecasting models for Indian condition
    to serve as early warning systems.
  • Breeding for disease tolerant cultivars needs to
    be initiated.
  • Studies needs to be initiated on changes in host
    physiology, pathogen life cycle and host pathogen
    interaction caused by changing climatic
    parameters.
