Temporal and spatial genetic population structure of Cryphonectria parasitica and its associated hypovirus across an invasive range of chestnut blight in Europe.

Phytopathology, 2021
Chestnut blight has spread throughout Europe since the introduction of its causal agent Cryphonectria parasitica over 70 years ago. In our study, we have analysed diversity of vegetative compatibility (vc) and microsatellite genotypes of C.

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

CpSmt3, an ortholog of small ubiquitin-like modifier, is essential for growth, organelle function, virulence, and antiviral defense in Cryphonectria parasitica

Frontiers in Microbiology
Introduction SUMOylation is an important post-translational modification that regulates the expression, localization, and activity of substrate proteins, thereby participating in various important cellular processes such as the cell cycle, cell ...

Strengthening Predictive Models for Wheat Stem Rust Infection Risk in a Changing Climate: Gaps and Opportunities

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Here we review environmental data underpinning epidemiological models for wheat stem rust, highlighting gaps that, once addressed, would significantly enhance the predictive power of these tools. ABSTRACT Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt) is a major global fungal pathogen that causes stem rust of wheat (Triticum spp.) (the primary and principal ...

Rhizobacteria Exopolysaccharide: A Boon in Reclaiming Soil Fertility, Augmenting Plant Growth and Plant Stress Resilience

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPS) enhance plant stress tolerance and soil health by improving water retention, nutrient cycling, and resilience to salinity and heavy metals, offering a biodegradable and eco‐friendly alternative to synthetic polymers for sustainable agriculture. ABSTRACT Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) serve multiple industrial and

Genome sequence of the chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica EP155: A fundamental resource for an archetypical invasive plant pathogen.

Phytopathology, 2020
Cryphonectria parasitica is the causal agent of chestnut blight, a fungal disease that almost entirely eliminated mature American chestnut from North America over a 50-year period. Here we formally report the genome of C.

Demographic and genetic factors affect the use of translocation for evolutionary rescue: A case study of American chestnut using simulation

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
These findings underscore the importance, complexity and flexibility of strategic translocations for ensuring the recovery of plant species limited by adaptive genetic diversity. Abstract For many plant species at risk, recovery depends on supplementing populations with adaptive genetic diversity through translocations but specific introduction ...

Molecular genetic variability of Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 associated with Cryphonectria parasitica in South Tyrol (northern Italy)

Frontiers in Microbiology
Cryphonectria hypovirus 1 (CHV-1) has been widely studied and used as a biocontrol agent because of its ability to infect the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, and to reduce its virulence.
