Mixed Impacts of the Mycovirus Fusarium Culmorum Phenuivirus 1 on Fusarium culmorum: Laboratory and In Planta Investigations

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Fusarium culmorum phenuivirus 1 caused no changes in laboratory‐based assays and shows mild hypovirulence in a susceptible wheat cultivar under semifield conditions. It is highly transmissible both via spores and hyphal contact. ABSTRACT The mycovirus Fusarium culmorum phenuivirus 1 (FcPV1) infects the wheat pathogen Fusarium culmorum, a causal agent ...

The Mycovirus Cryphonectria Hypovirus 1 Infects the Heterologous Host Fusarium oxysporum and Induces Hypovirulence

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
The Cryphonectria parasitica hypovirus CHV1 efficiently replicates in the heterologous host Fusarium oxysporum, inducing clear hypovirulence, and has the potential to persist and spread in this pathogen by constant infections and re‐infections through hyphal anastomosis.

Transmission of Fusarium boothii mycovirus via protoplast fusion causes hypovirulence in other phytopathogenic fungi. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
There is increasing concern regarding the use of fungicides to control plant diseases, whereby interest has increased in the biological control of phytopathogenic fungi by the application of hypovirulent mycoviruses as a possible alternative to ...

Co‐cultivation and Medium Optimization: A Strategy for Discovering Fungal‐derived Protease Inhibitors

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The fungi Fusarium guttiforme and Phytophthora palmivora were cultivated in four different media (Potato Dextrose Agar, Czapek, rice, and ISP2) and co‐cultured to stimulate fungal interactions and enhance secondary metabolite production. Promising extracts were fractionated, yielding compounds such as the iron complex of fusaric acid (1 ...

Speed Breeding Transgenic American Chestnut Trees Toward Restoration

open access: yesPlant Direct, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The American chestnut (Castanea dentata) was a dominant, foundational forest canopy tree in eastern North America until an imported chestnut blight (caused by Cryphonectria parasitica) rendered it functionally extinct across its native range. Biotechnological approaches have the potential to help restore the species, but field‐based breeding ...

cpubi4 Is Essential for Development and Virulence in Chestnut Blight Fungus

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Ubiquitination plays key roles in eukaryotic growth, stress adaptation, and metabolic regulation. In our previous work, ubiquitin was found to be secreted in the hypovirus-infected strain of Cryphonectria parasitica, a phytopathogenic filamentous fungus ...

Biological invasions: a global assessment of geographic distributions, long‐term trends, and data gaps

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2542-2583, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Development of a Simplified PCR‐Nucleic Acid Lateral Flow Immunoassay (PCR‐NALFIA) for Cryptostroma corticale, the Causal Agent of Sooty Bark Disease

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 9, Page 2728-2737, December 2025.
We present a portable, species‐specific PCR‐NALFIA assay for field detection of Cryptostroma corticale from crude samples in < 2 h, offering a practical tool for managing this emerging threat to urban and native maple trees. ABSTRACT Sooty bark disease (SBD), caused by the fungus Cryptostroma corticale, is causing a widespread outbreak on sycamore ...
