Taxonomic investigation of Abrothallus (Abrothallales, Ascomycota) species associated with lichen genera Ramalina and Bryoria, including the description of a new species

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
The obligately lichenicolous genus Abrothallus consists of approximately 50 species, almost all of which are associated with lichens having foliose, fruticose, or pendulous thalli. This paper focuses on species that grow on strap lichens (Ramalina) providing new insights into their phylogenetic relationships and distribution.

Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using fermentation extracts from a mangrove soil bacterium: morphological characterization, and antifungal activities against rice blast fungus

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 2035-2047, February 2026.
This study synthesized silver nanoparticles (RFE‐AgNPs) with multifaceted inhibitory effects on Pyricularia oryzae using mangrove soil bacterial natural products and evaluated their toxicity effects on Artemia salina. Abstract BACKGROUND Rice blast, caused by Pyricularia oryzae, poses a formidable threat to global rice production.

First Report of Sydowia polyspora Causing Current Season Needle Necrosis on Abies grandis in Sweden

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Current season needle necrosis (CSNN) is a conifer foliar disease and a particular problem for Christmas tree plantations, as it causes necrosis and premature foliage shedding, resulting in significant economic and aesthetic devaluation. In September 2022, CSNN symptoms were detected on 10‐year‐old Abies grandis trees at a plantation located ...

Biology, Detection, and Management of Lecanosticta acicola: Emerging Challenges for the Management of Brown Spot Needle Blight in Pine Forests

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Brown spot needle blight (BSNB), caused by the fungus Lecanosticta acicola, is a widely distributed foliar disease of pines that causes needle necrosis, premature defoliation, and growth loss in both natural forests and commercial plantations. Although L.

Rice blast pathogen effector AvrPib compromises disease resistance by targeting Raf‐like protein kinase OsMAPKKK72 to inhibit MAPK signaling

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 486-501, February 2026.
The rice Raf‐like protein kinase OsMAPKKK72 acts as a scaffold to modulate MAPK signaling. To invade rice plants, the blast fungus delivers the effector AvrPib to target OsMAPKKK72, suppressing MAPK activation and rice blast resistance. ABSTRACT Phytopathogens, such as the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, suppress plant immunity for reproduction ...

An Improved Description of the Small RNA Landscape of the Human Fungal Pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 2, Page 133-144, February 2026.
The mechanisms of small RNA biogenesis in fungi are diverse and multifactorial. Here, we provide an improved understanding of the processing of double‐stranded RNA in the human fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus, revealing susceptibility to high levels of double‐stranded RNA and limited input of the canonical RNAi machinery on the endogenous small ...
