Using Genetic Engineering Techniques to Develop Banana Cultivars With Fusarium Wilt Resistance and Ideal Plant Architecture

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Bananas (Musa spp.) are an important fruit crop worldwide. The fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), which causes Fusarium wilt, is widely regarded as one of the most damaging plant diseases.

Mycobiome Simplification in Wheat Is Associated With the Pathogen Parastagonospora nodorum

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 14, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant mycobiomes are essential to plant health, yet their assembly under biotic stressors such as pathogen infection remains poorly understood. Plant pathogens can influence microbial community composition through direct antagonism and suppression of host immune responses, potentially altering mycobiome composition in ways that could affect ...

Genetic Characterisation and Aggressiveness of the Fusarium oxysporum Species Complex in Tomato Plants and Irrigation Water From Australian Processing Fields

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
This study reveals extensive genetic diversity within Fusarium oxysporum isolates associated with Australian processing tomato systems, showing that phylogenetic placement does not necessarily correspond with pathogenicity. ABSTRACT Fusarium oxysporum Species Complex (FOSC) includes important soil‐borne pathogens of a range of crops worldwide.

Soil Pathobiome in Agroecosystems and Forests

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
This review synthesises current knowledge on the soil pathobiome across agroecosystems, horticulture, and forests, highlighting how climate change and intensive management disrupt microbial communities and promote pathogen accumulation. It emphasises soil health as a key component of the One Health framework, linking ecosystem, plant, animal, and human

Botanical treatment enhances biochemical responses in enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) clones

JSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 236-247, June 2026.
Abstract Background Bacterial wilt of enset (Ensete ventricosum (Welw.) Cheesman) is a severe disease caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. musacearum, resulting in complete crop failure and considerable damage. This study assessed the biochemical responses of two enset clones (one resistant and one susceptible) when inoculated with the pathogen and ...

The Effector SIX8 Contributes to Virulence of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae Race 4 on Lettuce

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Secreted in Xylem (SIX) genes were expressed during infection of lettuce by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae race 4 (Fola4). CRISPR‐Cas9 knockout of the SIX8 gene in Fola4 reduced virulence in lettuce which was restored following Agrobacterium mediated complementation. SIX8 therefore contributes to virulence of Fola4 on lettuce.

Host‐Induced Silencing of Rhizoctonia Solani 5‐Enolpyruvylshikimate‐3‐Phosphate Synthase Impairs Its Virulence in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3573-3593, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Sheath blight disease of rice caused by the fungal pathogen R. solani AG1‐IA remains a big threat to rice production worldwide. A limited genetic variation in rice for tolerance to this pathogen and little success in understanding how it defeats host defence are major reasons behind it.
