Fine mapping of cucumber downy mildew resistance loci identifies candidate genes linked to ethylene‐associated stomatal defence

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Downy mildew, caused by Pseudoperonospora cubensis, is one of the most destructive diseases affecting cucumber and remains difficult to manage sustainably through fungicide‐dependent control strategies. Although several resistance loci have been reported, many previously mapped regions remain too broad for efficient marker‐assisted ...

Colonization dynamic and distribution of the endophytic fungus Microdochium bolleyi in plants measured by qPCR.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Microdochium bolleyi is a fungal endophyte of cereals and grasses proposed as an ideal model organism for studying plant-endophyte interactions. A qPCR-based diagnostic assay was developed to detect M. bolleyi in wheat and Brachypodium distachyon tissues

Manure Composting as a Strategy to Mitigate Antibiotic Resistance Dissemination in Agricultural Systems

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Livestock manure is a valuable agricultural resource but may introduce antibiotic residues and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) into the environment. This review critically evaluates the fate of antibiotics and ARGs during manure composting and identifies the principal factors controlling their attenuation.

Competition and soil conditions limit the growth of High Arctic non‐native plants

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Non‐native vascular plant species in the High Arctic are currently restricted mainly to settlements and other anthropogenically disturbed areas. The reasons for this remain unclear, but climate or dispersal do not appear to be the main limiting factors. Instead, biotic interactions combined with soil conditions may play important roles.

Endophytes: An Overview

open access: yes, 2023
Endophytic bacteria are those that live inside of plants for at least some of the plant's life cycle but do not cause any outwardly apparent symptoms of the disease. In light of the fact that endophytes are a source of phytochemicals of high value, it is essential to bioprospect these microorganisms in order to find a wide variety of related ...

Controlling sap-sucking insect pests with recombinant endophytes expressing plant lectin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We developed a novel pest management strategy, which uses endophytes to express anti-pest plant lectins. Fungal endophyte of Chaetomium globosum YY-11 with anti-fungi activities was isolated from rape seedlings, and bacterial endophytes of SJ-10 ...

Stability and purity of selected ryegrass Epichloë endophytes in New Zealand dairy pastures

open access: yesGrassland Research
Background Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) in New Zealand pastures is typically infected with the mutualist Epichloë fungal endophyte. This endophyte assists the plant in resisting biotic and abiotic stresses, but the standard strain of endophyte is ...

Transcriptome Analysis and Differential Expression in Tall Fescue Harboring Different Endophyte Strains in Response to Water Deficit

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, 2019
Two tall fescue [Lolium arundinaceum (Schreb.) Darbysh. = Schedonorus arundinaceus (Schreb.) Dumort. = Festuca arundinacea var. arundinacea Schreb.] plant genotypes with an Epichloë coenophiala (Morgan-Jones & W. Gams) C.W.

Plants back: Re‐envisioning botanical garden collections management for indigenous crops

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Botanical gardens and other ex situ collections play a key role in preventing plant extinctions, yet the needs of Indigenous crop cultivars are not being met by conventional botanical collections management practices. Inspired by Indigenous land care restoration movements centering plant–human–society relationships, we propose a path toward reciprocal ...

Survival and Development of the True Armyworm Pseudaletia unipuncta (Haworth) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), on Endophyte-infected and Endophyte-free Tall Fescue

open access: yes, 1993
True armyworms, Pseudaletia unipuncta (Haworth), were fed tall fescue leaves either infected or uninfected with the symbiotic fungus, Acremonium coenophialum Morgan-Jones and Gams.
