Long‐term surveillance reveals hybridization by nuclear reassortment and intercontinental spread as major evolutionary drivers in wheat yellow rust

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Documented incursions of Puccinia striiformis 2009–2023 based on sequential resampling of MLGs/pathogen races on different continents. Summary Evolutionary forces affecting crop pathogens, including hybridization and long‐distance dispersal (LDD), may have strong implications for food security and sustainable plant disease control at global scales ...

Accessory regions and horizontal gene transfer shape the evolution of clonal Colletotrichum nymphaeae infecting strawberry

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity of strawberry‐infecting Colletotrichum isolates. Summary Rapid adaptation in fungal plant pathogens is often attributed to sexual recombination, yet many important pathogens are largely clonal. We investigated how genetic and phenotypic diversity arises in the predominantly asexual fungus Colletotrichum nymphaeae, the main cause of ...

Cytogenetic Identification and Molecular Marker Analysis of Two Wheat–Thinopyrum ponticum Translocations with Stripe Rust Resistance

Plants
Stripe rust, induced by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most destructive fungal diseases of wheat worldwide. Thinopyrum ponticum, a significant wild relative for wheat improvement, exhibits innate immunity to this disease.

Rapid gain and loss of a chromosome drives key morphology and virulence phenotypes in the fungal pathogen Histoplasma

PLOS Biology
Heritable phenotypic switches are fundamental to the ability of cells to respond to specific conditions. Such switches are key to the success of environmental pathogens, which encounter disparate conditions as they transition between the environment and host.

Oral Mucositis in Oncopediatric Patients: MTX and MMP‐1, MMP‐8, MMP‐13 Gene Polymorphisms

Oral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study investigates the association between single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the MMP‐1, MMP‐8, and MMP‐13 genes and the risk of oral mucositis development in paediatric patients with leukaemia and lymphoma who are undergoing methotrexate (MTX) treatment.

Regulatory Mechanism of CsMYB1‐CsMYB82/CsbHLH48‑CsCAD4 Model for Resistance Against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides in Camellia sinensis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is a major threat to tea cultivation; however, the molecular mechanism underlying different resistance among tea cultivars remains unclear. We identified distinct expression patterns of CsMYB82 between anthracnose‐resistant and susceptible varieties after infection with anthracnose from ...

Chromosome-level genome assembly of Fusarium tricinctum, a fungal pathogen associated with root rot in alfalfa

Scientific Data
Fusarium tricinctum is a globally devastating fungal pathogen associated with root rot disease in alfalfa. The absence of a complete genome sequence has hindered molecular investigations into its pathogenic mechanisms. This study reports the first chromosome-level genome assembly of the virulent F. tricinctum strain MsR-QD66, generated using a combined

Spatial Regulation of Silicon Accumulation in Peduncle Confers Sheathed Spike in Barley

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peduncle, the uppermost internode in cereals, connects the stem to the inflorescence and is critical for the transport of water, nutrients and photosynthetic assimilates. While peduncle length associates with plant height and its elongation is primarily regulated by phytohormones, we report a previously unrecognized mechanism involving the ...

Negative Regulators of Rice Agronomic Traits: Functional Insights and Applications in Genome Editing‐Based Breeding

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among current precision breeding strategies, genome editing has created new opportunities for crop improvement, but its success depends heavily on the selection of ...

Staurosporine Targets Mitochondrial Regulator VdAtuA3 to Disrupt Mitochondrial Homeostasis to Control Verticillium Wilt

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mitochondria serve as cellular powerhouses that generate ATP via electron transport chain complexes and orchestrate metabolism‐apoptosis cross‐talk, yet genes maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis remain underexplored as antifungal targets. In this study, a previously uncharacterised protein VdAtuA3 was identified as a novel interactor with ...
