Genome sequencing reveals the evolution and pathogenic mechanisms of the wheat sharp eyespot pathogen Rhizoctonia cerealis

Crop Journal, 2023
The necrotrophic fungus Rhizoctonia cerealis is the causal agent of devastating diseases of cereal crops including wheat (Triticum aestivum). We present a high-quality genome assembly of R.

Salt stress improves thermotolerance and high-temperature bioethanol production of multi-stress-tolerant Pichia kudriavzevii by stimulating intracellular metabolism and inhibiting oxidative damage

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2021
Background High-temperature bioethanol production benefits from yeast thermotolerance. Salt stress could induce obvious cross-protection against heat stress of Pichia kudriavzevii, contributing to the improvement of its thermotolerance and bioethanol ...

Proteomic and Phenotypic Analyses of a Putative Glycerol-3-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Required for Virulence in Acidovorax citrulli

The Plant Pathology Journal, 2021
Acidovorax citrulli (Ac) is the causal agent of bacterial fruit blotch (BFB) in watermelon, a disease that poses a serious threat to watermelon production. Because of the lack of resistant cultivars against BFB, virulence factors or mechanisms need to be

Lactate Dehydrogenase A Promotes Communication between Carbohydrate Catabolism and Virulence inBacillus cereus [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2011
ABSTRACTThe diarrheal potential of aBacillus cereusstrain is essentially dictated by the amount of secreted nonhemolytic enterotoxin (Nhe). Expression of genes encoding Nhe is regulated by several factors, including the metabolic state of the cells.
