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.

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 ...

cpubi4 Is Essential for Development and Virulence in Chestnut Blight Fungus
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 ...

Understanding the virus‐host arms race has been a fascinating topic in virology; contributing significantly to the development of treatments and control strategies for viral diseases. CHV1 employs a sophisticated counter‐defense mechanism in its fungal host by utilizing a viral silencing suppressor to inhibit fungal FMN reductase; thereby modulating ...

The Role of Phyllosphere Microbes and Viruses in Biocontrol of Pathogenic Fungi
Foliar microbiota employ multiple ecological strategies to inhibit fungal pathogens in the phyllosphere, including resource competition, production of antifungal metabolites, contact‐dependent killing, modulation of plant innate immunity and mycovirus‐mediated suppression.
