Morphological, Molecular, and Pathogenic Characterization of Neofabraea alba, a Postharvest Pathogen of Apple in Serbia

Agronomy, 2022
Neofabraea spp. is one of the major causal agents of the postharvest decay of apple fruit. Bull’s eye rot can cause fruit rot, as well as tree canker. In Serbia, during February and March, 2017 and 2018, 56.3% of collected stored rotten apple fruits were

Copper‐Regulated Modulation of the MdbZIP11–MdHAT5 Transcriptional Module Enhances ABA‐Mediated Immunity in Apple

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
A Cu2+‐regulated bZIP–HD‐ZIP transcriptional cascade activates ABA‐dependent immunity in apple. ABSTRACT Transcription factor‐mediated integration of hormonal signalling is central to plant immunity, yet how such regulatory modules are activated by external signals in perennial fruit crops remains largely unknown.

MdRLKT1–MdRAX2–MdMKS1 Module Positively Regulating Resistance to Cytospora mali in Apple

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4105-4120, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Valsa canker (caused by Cytospora mali = Valsa mali. C. mali) is one of the most destructive diseases affecting apple cultivation. The scarcity of natural germplasm resources with high resistance and immunity underscores the importance of exploring plant immune regulation factors of disease‐resistant breeding.

Tree diversity and shade rate in complex cocoa-based agroforests affect citrus foot rot disease

Basic and Applied Ecology, 2022
The role of agroforest systems in pathogen regulation through structural characteristics such as shade and tree diversity is recognized. However, few studies have examined the importance of these factors on the spread of diseases of associated fruit ...

Are Tahiti Limes Profitable in South Florida? A Deterministic and Stochastic Budget Analysis

International Journal of Fruit Science, 2023
Tahiti limes were an important fruit tree crop in South Florida until the late 1990s. Several factors contributed to the demise of the Florida lime industry, namely the impact of hurricane Andrew in 1992 and the arrival of Citrus Canker (CC) in 1995. The

Phylogenetic and Population Genetic Analyses Reveal Patterns of Divergence Among Isolates of Ceratocystis manginecans

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Isolates considered broadly as Ceratocystis manginecans have long presented taxonomic challenges due to minimal morphological differences, interfertility and varied species concepts. By analysing seven gene regions, 16 SSR loci, and representative morphological traits across isolates from diverse hosts and regions, we identified two genetically ...

Stilbocrea banihashemiana sp. nov. a New Fungal Pathogen Causing Stem Cankers and Twig Dieback of Fruit Trees

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Stem cankers and twig dieback were the most serious disease of fig (Ficus carica) and loquat (Eriobotrya japonica) noticed in a survey of fruit tree orchards in the Fars Province, Iran. Isolates of Bionectriaceae were consistently recovered from symptomatic fig and loquat trees.
