Two pathogen loci determine Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici virulence to wheat resistance gene Pm1a
Summary Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici (Bgt) is a globally important fungal pathogen of wheat that can rapidly evolve to defeat wheat powdery mildew (Pm) resistance genes. Despite periodic regional deployment of the Pm1a resistance gene in US wheat production, Bgt strains that overcome Pm1a have been notably nonpersistent in the United States, while ...

Wax morphology, wax chemistry, and leaf wettability are analyzed on three different wheat varieties. In addition, various test systems are developed that mimic the properties of the plant surface individually and in combination. To investigate the influence of surface properties on fungal development, wheat leaves and the test systems are inoculated ...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi influence host infection during epidemics in a wild plant pathosystem
Summary While pathogenic and mutualistic microbes are ubiquitous across ecosystems and often co‐occur within hosts, how they interact to determine patterns of disease in genetically diverse wild populations is unknown. To test whether microbial mutualists provide protection against pathogens, and whether this varies among host genotypes, we conducted a

Previous phylogenetic analyses of species within the genus Golovinomyces (Ascomycota, Erysiphales), based on ITS and 28S rDNA sequence data, revealed a co-evolutionary relationship between powdery mildew species and hosts of certain tribes of the plant ...

We established a robust system to examine fungal diversity in lake sediment cores, including an updated set of primers, optimized according to the now much enlarged fungal reference databases. We demonstrate that lake sediment DNA is a reliable archive of ancient terrestrial fungal communities from records reaching well into the Late Pleistocene ...

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Knautia arvensis
Field Scabious is a widespread, native perennial of grasslands and meadows found throughout much of Europe. It is a popular plant frequently used as part of pollinator seed mixes, as the nectariferous blue‐lilac flowers support a range of generalist and specialist pollinators.

Factors controlling the effects of mutualistic bacteria on plants associated with fungi
Plants interacting with fungi can also form associations with mutualistic bacteria. We assessed whether the performance gain conferred by bacteria to fungal‐associated plants is affected by the interaction between symbiont traits, the type of bacterial‐protective trait, and abiotic/biotic stresses. Our results highlight that the interaction between the

Summary Many plant species produce multiple leaf flushes during the growing season, which might have major consequences for within‐plant variation in chemistry and species interactions. Yet, we lack a theoretical or empirical framework for how differences among leaf flushes might shape variation in damage by insects and diseases. We assessed the impact

Mating type and fungicide resistance in populations of Podosphaera xanthii in south Italy
Mating type of P. xanthii populations in south Italy in 2016 and 2018 indicate that the MAT1‐1 idiomorph was more recently introduced in the area; cyflufenamid‐resistant isolates were widespread and increased over time. Abstract Powdery mildew is one of the most common and severe diseases of cucurbits, causing heavy yield losses in all growing areas ...
