Shaping future forests: how can ecophysiology support climate‐smart forest management?

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Climate change, particularly the associated increase in extreme events and disturbances, threatens the numerous environmental, social, and economic benefits that forests provide, both locally and globally. Heat and drought pose significant risks to forest ecosystems; the anticipated future climate is expected to exacerbate this trend ...

Effects of White and Brown Rot Decay on Changes of Wood Ultrastructure

BioResources, 2014
Fungal decay results in gradual decomposition of compounds of wood cell walls. Mass loss of wood is usually applied to characterize the decay. However, mechanisms of brown and white rot decay are significantly different, resulting in different ...

Degradation of thermo-hygro-mechanically (THM)-densified wood by soft-rot fungi [PDF]

, 2017
Thermo-hygro-mechanical (THM)-densified wood is more resistant to colonisation and degradation by brown-rot fungi than untreated wood. Colonisation and degradation by soft-rot fungi was investigated in treated Norway spruce (Picea abies) and treated ...

WRKY Transcription Factors: Integral Regulators of Defence Responses to Biotic Stress in Crops

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crops are continually challenged by biotic stresses, including fungal, bacterial and viral pathogens and insect pests, which cause substantial yield and quality losses worldwide. WRKY transcription factors constitute a plant‐specific and functionally diverse family that is central to immune regulation.

Isolation and Identification of Brown Rot Pathogenic Fungi in Gastrodia elata and Its Inhibitory Effect by Citral

Shipin gongye ke-ji
To elucidate the types of Gastrodia elata (G. elata) brown rot pathogenic fungi and the inhibitory effect of citral on them. Tissue isolation method, pathogenicity test, morphological observation and rDNA-ITS sequence analysis were employed to isolate ...

Cellulose Degradation by Cellulose-Clearing and Non-Cellulose-Clearing Brown-Rot Fungi [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1980
Cellulose degradation by four cellulose-clearing brown-rot fungi in the Coniophoraceae—Coniophora prasinoides, C. puteana, Leucogyrophana arizonica , and L. olivascens —is compared with that of a non-cellulose-clearing brown-rot fungus, Poria placenta .

SPORE DEVELOPMENT IN THE BROWN ROT FUNGI (SCLEROTINIA SPP.) [PDF]

New Phytologist, 1969
SummaryDevelopment of macro‐ and microconidia of several species of Sclerotinia causing brown rot of rosaceous fruits was studied by light and electron microscopy.Macroconidia are produced by budding and develop in acropetal succession. Septa form centripetally across the constricted regions between the spore initials of a chain.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Taxonomic Study of French Guiana Fungi to Identify and Isolate Pure Cultured Fungi for Oleoresin Production in Aquilaria: Use of Sequences from the Small Ribosomal DNA (R) Subunit (SSU) and the Two Primer Pairs SR6/SR10R and SR7/SR1R [PDF]

, 2019
Fungi from tropical regions are currently under-represented in the classification system. Indeed, difficult access to tropical forests makes it complicated to study fungus species in such environments, unlike in European zones where fungal diversity and ...

Following basal stem rot in young oil palm plantings [PDF]

, 2005
The PCR primer GanET has previously been shown to be suitable for the specific amplification of DNA from Ganoderma boninense. A DNA extraction and PCR method has been developed that allows for the amplification of the G.
