Summary Antifungal proteins (AFPs) derived from filamentous fungi show great potential against economically significant fungi that cause plant diseases and consequently threat food safety and security. This study focuses on the Penicillium expansum PeAfpA and Penicillium digitatum PdAfpB proteins and their activity against several phytopathogens.

IbPIF1 confers stem nematode resistance by regulating secondary metabolites in sweet potato
Summary The stem nematode (Ditylenchus destructor Thorne) is a pervasive and destructive plant‐parasitic nematode worldwide, inflicting severe agricultural and economic losses in a wide range of crops. Despite its global impact, the molecular mechanisms underlying plant resistance to this pathogen remain poorly understood. Our previous studies in sweet

Summary Bananas (Musa spp.) are a major fruit crop worldwide, with the Cavendish cultivar dominating the export industries, which are based primarily in the Americas and the Philippines. The sustainability of banana production in these, and other regions, is under threat from the fungal disease Fusarium wilt tropical race 4 (TR4) which kills Cavendish ...

Summary Erysiphe necator, the causal agent of powdery mildew (PM), is a fungal pathogen that can severely reduce crop yields. In this study, stable overexpression and silencing demonstrated that the transcription factor VqWRKY46 was identified as a positive regulator of PM resistance in grapevine.

Summary The excessive application of nitrogen fertilization improves rice yield, but increases disease severity. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we conducted a comparative analysis of nitrogen‐ and R. solani‐regulated transcriptomes and identified TEOSINTE BRANCHED, CYC, PCF 19 (TCP19), that was a key regulator of ...

ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea (Bc) is a major pathogen of cultivated grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.), with cell wall (CW) remodelling playing a critical role in fungal colonisation. CW‐modifying enzymes, particularly pectin methylesterases (PMEs), produced by both host and pathogen, influence CW integrity and the outcome of infection.
