Chinese. DHN黑色素是许多植物病原真菌的致病相关因子，为明确黑色素在玉米大斑病菌致病过程中的作用，采用三环唑和紫外线复合诱变的方法获得了黑色素缺失的6个突变菌株，对突变菌株的生长量、产孢量、HT-毒素活性、致病力进行测定。结果显示，突变菌株产毒能力变化不大，但生长量下降，产孢量和致病力显著下降或完全丧失，野生型菌株的产孢量和侵染频率分别是突变菌株的30～50倍和5倍。突变菌株与黑色素共培养后，菌株M01-23a和M01-23b恢复了致病力，但病斑面积和侵染频率较小。玉米大斑病菌黑色素与致病力具有一定的相关性。

The objective of this study was to examine the role of melanin of Setosphaeria turcica in the mechanism of pathogenesis. Six melanin-deficient mutants were obtained by UV radiation and tricyclazole mutating. The tests on the mycelial growth，the number of conidiophores，the activity of HT-toxin and pathogenesis were conducted，comparing the mutant isolates with wild type ones. The mycelial growth，the number of conidiophores and pathogenesis reduced greatly in mutant isolates，but the activity of HT-toxin didn’t change obviously. Especially, the number of conidiophores and infections efficiency of wide type isolate is 30-50 fold and 5 fold compared with mutants. After grown on PDA containing melanin，mutant isolates M01-23a and M01-23b resumed a little pathogenesis. The experimental results suggested that there was relativity between melanin and pathogenesis.
