Conservation challenges and opportunities for native apple (Malus) species in Canada

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Apple, one of the world's most widely cultivated and economically important fruit crops, has two wild relatives native to Canada. In this review, we describe the importance of these native apple species to Indigenous heritage and the current threats the species faces due to pests, diseases, and habitat loss.

Preliminary genetic barcodes for ash (Fraxinus) species and generation of new wide hybrids

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Societal Impact Statement The world‐wide diversity of ash trees includes genetic information encoding resistance to the ash dieback fungus and the emerald ash borer beetle, which are currently devastating ash populations in Europe and North America. In order to mobilise this genetic diversity in conventional breeding programmes, we need to be able to ...

Uncovering Sequence and Structural Characteristics of Fungal Expansin‐Related Proteins With Potential to Drive Substrate Targeting

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Expansins loosen plant cell wall networks through disrupting non‐covalent bonds between cellulose microfibrils and matrix polysaccharides. Whereas expansins were first discovered in plants, expansin‐related proteins have since been identified in bacteria and fungi.

The serine palmitoyl transferase of plant pathogenic fungi: a promising new target for the development of novel crop protection solutions†

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
High biological activity of pyridazine carboxamides against a wide range of Ascomycetes led to identification of a new biochemical target for agrochemical fungicides – serine palmitoyl transferase. Abstract BACKGROUND Plant pathogens pose a significant threat to global agriculture and, thus to world food supplies, requiring the development of ...

Silver‐selenium nanoparticles and selected chemical compounds significantly inhibit grapevine trunk disease pathogens

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
A 2‐year in planta study confirmed antifungal activity of selected chemicals against GTD pathogens. Silver‐selenium nanoparticles inhibited D. eres and E. lata, but not D. seriata. Despite limited spectrum, they show promise as alternatives for targeted GTD control, with no phytotoxic effects observed.
