Phylogenetic and Pathogenic Analyses Show That the Causal Agent of Apple Ring Rot in China Is Botryosphaeria dothidea

, 2012
Apple ring rot and Botryosphaeria canker are severe diseases affecting apple production in China, but there is confusion regarding which pathogens cause these diseases and their similarity to other diseases, such as white rot of apple, and ring rot and ...

From pathogenesis to response: occurrence mechanisms, host resistance mechanisms, and management strategies of apple ring rot

Frontiers in Microbiology
Apple ring rot, caused by Botryosphaeria dothidea (B. dothidea) and Botryosphaeria kuwatsukai (B. kuwatsukai), is an economically important fungal disease of apple that primarily damages apple branches and fruits. This article comprehensively reviews the

The Transcription Factor DPB Confers Antiviral Defence Against Potato Virus X by Modulating MYB‐Dependent Signalling

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study identified that NbDPB confers resistance to potato virus X by directly activating the transcription factor NbMYB, which engages a hormone‐signalling network likely involving jasmonic acid and salicylic acid pathways. ABSTRACT As a transcriptional co‐factor of E2F, DP proteins are typically involved in the regulation of plant cell‐cycle ...

Neofusicoccum and Phytophthora Species: An Emerging Threat to Fig Trees (Ficus carica) in Italy, With the Description of Phytophthora messapica sp. nov.

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
The work helped clarify the complex aetiology of common fig decline in Italy as the result of a simultaneous attack by canopy pathogens (Ascomycetes, family Botryosphaeriaceae) and root pathogens (oomycetes of the genus Phytophthora) and led to the discovery of several new host–pathogen associations and a new Phytophthora species.

Fungal Pathogen Activity and Stress‐Dependent Responses of Grapevine Wood to Esca and Drought

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biotic and abiotic stresses alter the physiology of perennial plants, with consequences for fungal endophytes and disease expression. In grapevine, drought inhibits esca disease expression, but the underlying molecular interactions between the plant and fungi are unknown. We combined wood metatranscriptomics, metabolomics, and metabarcoding to

ApCtf1β‐Interacting Target Proteins BDPH1 and BDEUL12 Regulate Pathogenicity in Arthrinium phaeospermum

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study found that BDPH1 and BDEUL12 interact with Apctf1β. They regulate growth, development, and chemical stress response in Arthrinium phaeospermum, and are crucial for its pathogenicity. ABSTRACT Arthrinium phaeospermum is the primary pathogen responsible for shoot blight disease in Bambusa pervariabilis × Dendrocalamopsis grandis.

Novel Antifungal Scaffold Targeting Tubulin Overcomes Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum Resistance

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
Addressing pesticide resistance, novel chromone‐acylhydrazone hybrids targeting fungal tubulin are synthesized. Compound G24 potently inhibited S. sclerotiorum (EC50 = 0.21µg mL−1) and demonstrated enhanced field performance via microencapsulation, offering a sustainable strategy against resistance and for global food security.

Overexpression of a Tonoplast Malate Transporter Gene Leads to Enhanced Anthocyanin Biosynthesis in Apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 620-638, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Anthocyanins, a group of secondary metabolites synthesised in the phenylpropanoid pathway, largely determine the peel colour of fleshy fruits, but it is not known if their synthesis is linked to vacuolar malate accumulation that underlies fruit acidity.
