An investigation into the interaction between water deficit and injury of sugarcane borer (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) in the gas exchange parameters and spectral reflectance of sugarcane

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Plants are subject to a variety of stressors that will eventually limit their development and yield. However, analysis of the combination of abiotic and biotic stresses is usually disregarded. The combination of stresses can have synergistic or antagonistic effects and, therefore, they require greater clarification for assertive ...

Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Aquatic fungal diversity assessment through metagenomics is still limited to current databases

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Fungi play essential roles across ecosystems, yet their diversity in aquatic environments remains poorly understood compared to terrestrial systems. To address this gap, we analyzed metagenomes from 26 lakes in the boreal and subarctic zones, along with one tropical reservoir, to characterize fungal and fungal‐like (Oomycota) community ...

The Role of Plant Hormones in the Interaction of Colletotrichum Species with Their Host Plants

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Colletotrichum is a plant pathogenic fungus which is able to infect virtually every economically important plant species. Up to now no common infection mechanism has been identified comparing different plant and Colletotrichum species.

Isolation and Characterization of Extracellular Vesicles From Ascochyta rabiei, a Necrotrophic Fungal Chickpea Pathogen

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles produced by pathogenic organisms play a role in host recognition and invasion across kingdoms, including fungi interacting with their plant hosts. Little is known about EVs from phytopathogenic fungi compared to human fungal pathogens.

Diversity and pathogenicity of Colletotrichum species causing strawberry anthracnose in Taiwan and description of a new species, Colletotrichum miaoliense sp. nov.

Scientific Reports, 2020
Strawberry is a small fruit crop with high economic value. Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum spp. poses a serious threat to strawberry production, particularly in warm and humid climates, but knowledge of pathogen populations in tropical and ...

Fungal community survey of Fraxinus excelior in New Zealand [PDF]

, 2012
The European Ash tree (Fraxinus excelsior) is widely grown throughout Europe. As a large deciduous tree species, it grows a tall, domed crown and has an attractive tree shape, so it is considered as a popular amenity tree species. European Ash is planted

Epidemiology of Monilinia laxa, the causal agent of blossom blight in almond orchards within the Ebro Valley

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Blossom blight caused by Monilinia laxa in almond orchards in the Ebro Valley. Early stages of mummified fruiting structures infected by M. laxa frequently adhered to branches. Later stages of mummified fruiting structures were predominantly on the ground.

Preliminary Evaluation of a Dodder Anthracnose Fungus from China as a Mycoherbicide for Dodder Control in the US [PDF]

, 1989
Dodder (Cuscuta spp.) is a noxious, parasitic, annual weed throughout most of the United States. A fungus used to control it in China was imported under permit for studies with U.S. dodder species in containment.
