Optimizing Dothistroma septosporum infection of Pinus radiata and the development of red-band disease : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Genetics at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2006
The filamentous fungus Dothistroma septosporum infects pine species throughout the world causing red-band disease, one of the most serious diseases of conifer species. In NZ, a clonally derived asexual strain of D. septosporum was identified in 1964, and

Drone‐based phenotyping of maize for multiple disease resistance and yield in breeding field trials

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Improving selection for multiple disease resistance (MDR) and yield in maize (Zea mays L.) requires high‐throughput, objective phenotyping tools, particularly under field conditions where several foliar diseases co‐occur. We evaluated drone‐based multispectral vegetation indices (VIs) for predicting resistance to northern leaf blight (NLB ...

Decoding the Structural Complexity of Fungal α‐ and β‐Glucan Matrix via Statistical Analysis of Solid‐State NMR Chemical Shifts

Israel Journal of Chemistry, Volume 66, Issue 4, July 2026.
Solid‐state NMR combined with principal component analysis enables quantitative classification of fungal α‐ and β‐glucan architectures in intact cell walls, revealing conserved triple‐helical β‐1,3‐glucan conformations across species and predominantly bundled‐sheet α‐1,3‐glucan assemblies with condition‐dependent polymorphism. Statistical clustering of

Exogenous Stimulation of Type I Interferon Protects Mice with Chronic Granulomatous Disease from Aspergillosis through Early Recruitment of Host-Protective Neutrophils into the Lung

mBio, 2018
Invasive aspergillosis (IA) remains the primary cause of morbidity and mortality in chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) patients, often due to infection by Aspergillus species refractory to antifungals.

Taxonomy and phylogeny of the genus Mycosphaerella and its anamorphs [PDF]

, 2009
Historically plant pathogenic species of Mycosphaerella have been regarded as host-specific, though this hypothesys has proven difficult to test largely due to the inavailability of fungal cultures.

Cultural and morphological variations of Didymella rabiei isolates causing chickpea ascochyta blight in northwestern Ethiopia

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is one of the important grain legume crops in Ethiopia, which is used as a source of food and foreign currency. However, the crop production and productivity are currently challenged by ascochyta blight disease caused by Didymella rabiei in the study areas.

Entomopathogenic fungi, Metarhizium anisopliae and Beauveria bassiana reduce the survival of Xenopsylla brasiliensis larvae (Siphonaptera: Pulicidae). [PDF]

, 2012
Entomopathogenic fungi, particularly those belonging to the genera Metarhizium and Beauveria have shown great promise as arthropod vector control tools. These agents, however, have not been evaluated against flea vectors of plague.

Identifying and managing Cercospora leaf blight in soybean: From scouting to best management practices

Crop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Maximizing soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] yield requires effective management of Cercospora leaf blight (CLB), a significant foliar disease that can reduce productivity and grain quality. The impact of CLB is particularly notable in regions such as the mid‐southern United States, where species of Cercospora, predominantly C. cf. flagellaris,
