MFPD: A Multiple Fungal Pathogen Detection Pipeline Across Diverse Habitats [PDF]

Advanced Science
Fungal pathogens threaten the health of humans, animals, and plants. ITS sequencing offers an effective approach for detecting fungal pathogens; however, a comprehensive pathogen database and associated tailored pipeline are still lacking.

Dynamics of transposable elements in recently diverged fungal pathogens: lineage-specific transposable element content and efficiency of genome defenses

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2021
Transposable elements (TEs) impact genome plasticity, architecture, and evolution in fungal plant pathogens. The wide range of TE content observed in fungal genomes reflects diverse efficacy of host-genome defense mechanisms that can counter-balance TE ...

Tomatinase from Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici Is Required for Full Virulence on Tomato Plants

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2008
Saponin detoxification enzymes from pathogenic fungi are involved in the infection process of their host plants. Fusarium oxysporum f. sp lycopersici, a tomato pathogen, produces the tomatinase enzyme Tom1, which degrades α-tomatine to less toxic ...

Endophytic fungal community structure in olive orchards with high and low incidence of olive anthracnose

Scientific Reports, 2021
Fungal endophytes have been increasingly recognized to promote host plant protection to pathogens, but knowledge of the multiple effects that they could have in crop diseases is still scarce. This work attempts to understand the role of fungal endophytes

Exploring SARS-CoV2 host-pathogen interactions and associated fungal infections cross-talk: Screening of targets and understanding pathogenesis

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022
The COVID-19 associated opportunistic fungal infections have posed major challenges in recent times. Global scientific efforts have identified several SARS-CoV2 host-pathogen interactions in a very short time span.

A fungal RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is a novel player in plant infection and cross-kingdom RNA interference.

PLoS Pathogens, 2023
Small RNAs act as fungal pathogen effectors that silence host target genes to promote infection, a virulence mechanism termed cross-kingdom RNA interference (RNAi). The essential pathogen factors of cross-kingdom small RNA production are largely unknown.

Cross-Disciplinary Genomics Approaches to Studying Emerging Fungal Infections

Life, 2020
Emerging fungal pathogens pose a serious, global and growing threat to food supply systems, wild ecosystems, and human health. However, historic chronic underinvestment in their research has resulted in a limited understanding of their epidemiology ...
