Two Decades of the Immersiporthe knoxdaviesiana (Cryphonectriaceae) Canker Outbreak Driven by Clonal Pathogen Lineages

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
A single clonal lineage has driven Cape beech canker for nearly two decades. However, the fungus was also found in healthy trees, suggesting that this emerging disease may have a more complex origin than a simple pathogen introduction. ABSTRACT Immersiporthe knoxdaviesiana (Cryphonectriaceae) causes an aggressive canker disease on native Myrsine ...

Verticillium albo‐atrum partitivirus 1 Is a Highly Prevalent and Stably Maintained Cryptic Virus of Hop‐Associated Verticillium nonalfalfae

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Verticillium albo‐atrum partitivirus 1 (VaaPV1) infects Verticillium nonalfalfae isolates from hop. Comparative analyses of virus‐infected and isogenic virus‐free isolates revealed no effect on fungal growth or virulence, indicating a latent (cryptic) infection. ABSTRACT The soilborne plant‐pathogenic fungus Verticillium nonalfalfae causes Verticillium

Intentional introgression of a blight tolerance transgene to rescue the remnant population of American chestnut

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2021
In contrast to many current applications of biotechnology, the intended consequence of the American Chestnut Research & Restoration Project is to produce trees that are well‐adapted to thrive not just in confined fields or orchards, but throughout their ...

Viral Transmission Between Heterobasidion parviporum Strains in Wood Billets and Decaying Stumps

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The combined use of Heterobasidion partitiviruses HetPV13‐an1 and HetPV15‐pa1 is considered a promising biocontrol approach against Heterobasidion root and butt rot. Both viruses mediate debilitating effects in many Heterobasidion isolates and are transmitted efficiently in laboratory conditions.

The tree‐parasitic fungus Cryphonectria carpinicola discovered on European chestnut and European hornbeam in Azerbaijan

open access: yesEPPO Bulletin, Volume 56, Issue 2, Page 370-375, August 2026.
Abstract The ascomycetous fungus Cryphonectria carpinicola is typically found in its asexual form on the European hornbeam, and its sexual state has only recently been discovered in deadwood of different Carpinus species in Japan. Recently, this fungus has been added to the EPPO Alert List due to its increasing incidence in the EPPO region and a ...

Bacterial Blight of Chestnut

open access: yesJapanese Journal of Phytopathology, 1934
This paper deals with a bacterial blight of chestnut and its causal organism. The disease is mostly conspicuous in buds and young shoots though also occurs on the leaves, veins, petioles and bracteal leaves, the last being usually attacked at first. The sign of the disease in the early stage is water-soaked spots on the leaves and young shoots in which

Developing Blight-Tolerant American Chestnut Trees [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2019
An invasive fungal pathogen has reduced the American chestnut (Castanea dentata), once a keystone tree species within its natural range in the eastern United States and Canada, to functional extinction. To help restore this important canopy tree, blight-tolerant American chestnut trees have been developed using an oxalate oxidase-encoding gene from ...
