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

N-Glycosylation-The Behind-the-Scenes 'Manipulative Hand' of Plant Pathogen Invasiveness. [PDF]
The potential pathogenic mechanisms related to growth and development, infection structures, and the secretion of effector proteins influenced by N‐glycosylation modifications are described in detail. ABSTRACT Plant pathogens infect hosts through sophisticated molecular strategies, with N‐glycosylation serving as a critical post‐translational ...

Pathogenic adaptations of Colletotrichum fungi revealed by genome wide gene family evolutionary analyses. [PDF]
The fungal genus Colletotrichum contains hemibiotrophic phytopathogens being highly variable in host and tissue specificities. We sequenced a C. fructicola genome (1104-7) derived from an isolate of apple in China and compared it with the reference ...
