Paper describing the generation of thifluzamide-resistant mutants of Rhizoctonia cerealis by UV-irradiation of wild type strains R1404, R1406 and R1410. Mutants are obtained which harbour point mutations in the target genes SdhB/C/D, and phenotypical characterisation is performed.
Uniprot IDs: authors provide GenBank accession numbers for SdhB/C/D genes of Rhizoctonia cerealis, which were used to retrieve Uniprot IDs (indicated below). In Uniprot, entries are deposited as proteins of Ceratobasidium cereale (the teleomorph of Rhizoctonia cerealis).
SdhB = KU299049 - A0A173DSZ5 SdhC = KU299050 - A0A173DSZ3 SdhD = KU299051 - A0A173DT05
Strains: strains R1404, R1406 and R1410 were manually added to the curation session.
Genotype creation: allele type amino acid substitution was used to create all mutant pathogen genotypes. Point mutations were recorded against each respective strain. Some mutations were present in more than one strain; to avoid several 'repeated' genotypes and annotations, each mutation was recorded once in a representative strain. As most of the mutants were heterozygous for the mutant alleles, I created diploid locus for all genotypes.
NOTE: @CuzickA I noticed that when a curation session contains more than one strain and a diploid locus is created, a random strain is automatically selected for the diploid locus, regardless of the one which had been selected during the creation of the haploid locus. Thus, I had to manually edit the strain in each diploid locus after their creation to ensure they were correct. Could be interesting to add this into the FAQ text.
Genotype annotations: genotypes were annotated with terms: resistance to thifluzamide (suggested) resistance to boscalid resistance to bixafen (suggested) resistance to penflufen (suggested) sensitive to flutolanil (suggested) normal growth on flutolanil (suggested)
Annotation extensions were used to classify the level of resistance as low or medium according to the text.
NOTE: The paper also reports on the mycelial growth and virulence of mutants; however, there is variability among mutants derived from the same parental strain and harbouring the same mutation, which makes annotation not so robust (although annotation extension has_severity variable severity could be used). However, the main focus of the paper is on the resistance to fungicides, which already yielded 30 annotations.
Curation completed pending review.
Next - check genotype and phenotype annotations - Table 2 and 3
Genotype and phenotype annotations look good.
Added in the new PHIPO and PHI-ECO terms.
Next steps 1) add new strains_ added species 79869f1 and strains 70789f1 2) try and add AE alteration in archetype
AE alteration in archetype
Species 'Ceratobasidium cereale' not listed in Nichola's Table S4 or Mair et al 2016 Table of EPPO codes.
Looks like I'll have to try FRAST.

Check with Nichola if this alignment is good enough? L129I -> 147I

Next steps
1) Check AE alteration in archetype with Nichola.
Then session ready for approval.
Session approved without Nichola checking AE alteration in archetype. Closing ticket.
