Green leaf volatiles and jasmonic acid enhance susceptibility to anthracnose diseases caused by Colletotrichum graminicola in maize. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol, 2020
Colletotrichum graminicola is a hemibiotrophic fungus that causes anthracnose leaf blight (ALB) and anthracnose stalk rot (ASR) in maize. Despite substantial economic losses caused by these diseases, the defence mechanisms against this pathogen remain ...

A Fungal Effector With Host Nuclear Localization and DNA-Binding Properties Is Required for Maize Anthracnose Development [PDF]

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2016
Plant pathogens have the capacity to manipulate the host immune system through the secretion of effectors. We identified 27 putative effector proteins encoded in the genome of the maize anthracnose pathogen Colletotrichum graminicola that are likely to ...

Whole-Genome Identification and Analysis of Carbohydrate Esterase Gene Family in Colletotrichum graminicola

Agriculture
Colletotrichum graminicola can cause leaf spots and stalk rot in maize. The primary function of carbohydrate esterases (CEs) is to eliminate ester modifications from monosaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides, thereby facilitating the ...

Intraspecific variability in growth and in vitro production of plant cell wall-degrading enzymes among argentinean isolates of Colletotrichum graminicola, a maize pathogen

Boletín de la Sociedad Argentina de Botánica, 2023
Background and aims: Colletotrichum graminicola (Glomerellaceae, Glomerellales), the causal agent of maize (Zea mays) anthracnose, as many other fungal pathogens, relies on its battery of cell wall degrading enzymes (CWDEs) to make its way through the ...

Colletotrichum graminicola keratitis: first case report from India. [PDF]

Indian J Ophthalmol, 2010
Colletotrichum graminicola is a medically important fungus belonging to the order Melanconiales under the class Coelomycetes. The members of the genus Colletotrichum are primarily plant pathogens which cause anthracnoses (fungal infection in plants). In the past few decades, they are progressively being implicated as etiological agents of subcutaneous ...

PMT family mannosyltransferase-mediated protein O-mannosylation is required for the development and pathogenicity of Colletotrichum graminicola

Phytopathology Research
Protein O-mannosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a crucial regulatory role in the development and virulence of many phytopathogenic fungi.

A comparative genomic analysis of putative pathogenicity genes in the host-specific sibling species Colletotrichum graminicola and Colletotrichum sublineola [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background Colletotrichum graminicola and C. sublineola cause anthracnose leaf and stalk diseases of maize and sorghum, respectively. In spite of their close evolutionary relationship, the two species are completely host-specific.

First Report of Colletotrichum graminicola Causing Maize Anthracnose in Galicia, Northwestern Spain

Plant Disease, 2023
Maize (Zea mays) is one of the most important crops worldwide, and fungal diseases are responsible for major losses in food production. Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum graminicola can infect all maize tissues, although stalk rot and seedling blight cause more significant economic damage (Munkvold and White, 2016).

The Candidate Effector Cgmas2 Orchestrates Biphasic Infection of Colletotrichum graminicola in Maize by Coordinating Invasive Growth and Suppressing Host Immunity. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
Maize (Zea mays L.) is a major economic crop highly susceptible to Colletotrichum graminicola, the causal agent of anthracnose leaf blight, which causes substantial annual yield losses.
