Agent-based model of human alveoli predicts chemotactic signaling by epithelial cells during early Aspergillus fumigatus infection. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Aspergillus fumigatus is one of the most important human fungal pathogens, causing life-threatening diseases. Since humans inhale hundreds to thousands of fungal conidia every day, the lower respiratory tract is the primary site of infection.

Biodegradable Coatings with Essential Oils for Combating Papaya Anthracnose: State of the Art and Perspectives

open access: yesFood Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Papaya (Carica papaya L.) production and marketability are strongly constrained by postharvest diseases, with anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum spp. representing the most significant threat. Traditional control relies on synthetic fungicides, which, although effective, face challenges such as the development of pathogen resistance ...

A fast and reliable method for Diplodia seriata inoculation of trunks and assessment of fungicide efficacy on potted apple plants under greenhouse conditions

open access: yesPhytopathologia Mediterranea, 2019
Diplodia seriata is a polyphagous and widespread pathogen that infects trunks, shoots, fruit and leaves of apple plants. Fungicides applied in integrated pest management programmes can act against D. seriata. However, introduction of scab-resistant apple

Control of Postharvest Brown Rot (Monilinia laxa) Disease Through Copper Sulfate and Antagonistic Bacterial Combinations

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Control of brown rot (Monilinia laxa) in nectarines using eco‐friendly alternatives. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (B10W10) and Pseudomonas sp. (B11W11), alone or with copper sulfate, significantly reduced fungal growth in vitro and disease severity in vivo.

A DUF3455 domain‐containing protein promotes Ustilaginoidea virens infection and functions as a plant immune elicitor

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
The fungal effector UvDUF1 from Ustilaginoidea virens not only promotes infection but also acts as a plant immunity elicitor, inducing broad‐spectrum disease resistance in rice and Nicotiana benthamiana. These results reveal its potential as a novel target for sustainable crop protection strategies.
