High-throughput RNA sequencing reveals differences between the transcriptomes of the five spore forms of Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, the wheat stripe rust pathogen

Stress Biology, 2023
The devastating wheat stripe (yellow) rust pathogen, Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is a macrocyclic and heteroecious fungus. Pst produces urediniospores and teliospores on its primary host, wheat, and pycniospores and aeciospores are ...

Sickle Cell Disease Is an Inherent Risk for Asthma in a Sibling Comparison Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease (SCD) and asthma share a complex relationship. Although estimates vary, asthma prevalence in children with SCD is believed to be comparable to or higher than the general population. Determining whether SCD confers an increased risk for asthma remains challenging due to overlapping symptoms and the ...

On the hunt for the alternate host of Hemileia vastatrix

Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Coffee leaf rust (CLR), caused by the fungal pathogen Hemileia vastatrix, has plagued coffee production worldwide for over 150 years. Hemileia vastatrix produces urediniospores, teliospores, and the sexual basidiospores.

Prediction of pathogenicity genes involved in adaptation to a lupin host in the fungal pathogens Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum via comparative genomics

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Narrow-leafed lupin is an emerging crop of significance in agriculture, livestock feed and human health food. However, its susceptibility to various diseases is a major obstacle towards increased adoption. Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Botrytis

Impact of ploidy and pathogen life cycle on resistance durability

Peer Community Journal, 2021
The breeding of resistant hosts based on the gene-for-gene interaction is crucial to address epidemics of plant pathogens in agroecosystems. Resistant host deployment strategies are developed and studied worldwide to decrease the probability of ...

Colletotrichum acutatum: survival in plant debris and infection on alternate hosts [PDF]

, 2006
The survival of Colletotrichum acutatum in infected plant material was studied in two trials: one in 2002-2003 and another in 2003-2005 with artificially infected strawberry leaves, crowns and ...

Potential Early Risk Biomarkers for Reduced Forced Expiratory Volume in Children Post‐Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We sought to identify potential early risk biomarkers for lung disease in children post‐allogeneic HCT. Patients with pulmonary function tests 3 months post‐transplant and plasma samples between days 7 and 14 post‐HCT were included. Six of 27 subjects enrolled had reduced forced expiratory volume 1 (FEV1) z scores.

Biology of Tortoiseshell Beetle (Aspidomorpha miliaris Fabr.) on Sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas Lam) and Its Relatives as Affected by Hosts’ Nutritional Profile

Annals of Tropical Research, 2021
Several insect pests attack the foliage of sweetpotato at different stages of crop growth which contribute to yield reduction. Weeds belonging to the same genera as the main host can act as alternate hosts of insect pests. The study evaluated the biology

Viral-induced alternative splicing of host genes promotes influenza replication [PDF]

eLife, 2020
Viral infection induces the expression of numerous host genes that impact the outcome of infection. Here, we show that infection of human lung epithelial cells with influenza A virus (IAV) also induces a broad program of alternative splicing of host genes.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...
