Comparison of the transcriptomes of American chestnut (Castanea dentata) and Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima) in response to the chestnut blight infection [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology, 2009
Background1471-2229-9-51 American chestnut (Castanea dentata) was devastated by an exotic pathogen in the beginning of the twentieth century. This chestnut blight is caused by Cryphonectria parasitica, a fungus that infects stem tissues and kills the ...

Chestnut resistance to the blight disease: insights from transcriptome analysis

BMC Plant Biology, 2012
Background A century ago, Chestnut Blight Disease (CBD) devastated the American chestnut. Backcross breeding has been underway to introgress resistance from Chinese chestnut into surviving American chestnut genotypes. Development of genomic resources for

Emergence and diversification of a highly invasive chestnut pathogen lineage across southeastern Europe

eLife, 2021
Invasive microbial species constitute a major threat to biodiversity, agricultural production and human health. Invasions are often dominated by one or a small number of genotypes, yet the underlying factors driving invasions are poorly understood.

Signatures of Selection in the Genomes of Chinese Chestnut (Castanea mollissima Blume): The Roots of Nut Tree Domestication

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Chestnuts (Castanea) are major nut crops in East Asia and southern Europe, and are unique among temperate nut crops in that the harvested seeds are starchy rather than oily.

Geographic Distribution of Otolaryngologists and Disparities in the United States [PDF]

Laryngoscope Investig Otolaryngol
Across 3144 US counties and county‐equivalent units, rural areas had 1.63 otolaryngologists per 100,000 residents compared with 4.04 in urban areas. After adjustment, otolaryngologist supply remained significantly lower in rural counties and in the Midwest, South, and West compared with the Northeast.

Modeling and Analysis of American Chestnut Populations Subject to Various Stages of Infection

Letters in Biomathematics, 2014
American chestnuts, Castanea dentata, were once a dominant tree in eastern deciduous forests of the United States before the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, was introduced unintentionally in the early 1900s in New York.

Transgenic American Chestnuts Do Not Inhibit Germination of Native Seeds or Colonization of Mycorrhizal Fungi

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The American chestnut (Castanea dentata) was once an integral part of eastern United States deciduous forests, with many environmental, economic, and social values. This ended with the introduction of an invasive fungal pathogen that wiped out over three
