A FUNGAL PATHOGEN OF LACE BUG AND LEAF EATING CATERPILLAR, TWO INSECT PESTS OF COCONUT PALM

CORD, 2000
Lace bug, Stephanitis typica (D) and the leaf eating caterpillar, Opisina arenosella W. are two common pests in the coconut ecosystem. Lace bug is the vector of root (wilt) disease of coconut as it harbours and transmits the pathogenic “phytoplasma ...

Dimorphism in fungal plant pathogens [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2008
Fungi are mostly sessile organisms, and thus have evolved ways to cope with environmental changes. Many fungi produce 'dormant' structures, which allow them to survive periods of unfavorable conditions. Another ingenious active approach to a changing environment has been adopted by the 'dimorphic fungi', which simply shift their thallic organization as

Production of β-1,3-glucanase and chitosanase from clostridial strains isolated from the soil subjected to biological disinfestation

AMB Express, 2019
Biological soil disinfestation (BSD) or anaerobic (reductive) soil disinfestation (ASD/RSD) is a bioremediation method used to eliminate soil-borne plant pathogens by exploiting the activities of anaerobic bacteria in soil.

Surface Architecture Of Fungal Pathogens [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2012
Surface components in fungal cells include cell wall molecules and, in certain cases, capsular structures (Figure ​(Figure1)1) and extracellular matrix components. In pathogens, surface molecules are responsible for key events during interaction with the host (Nimrichter et al., 2005).

Hsp90 governs dispersion and drug resistance of fungal biofilms [PDF]

, 2011
Fungal biofilms are a major cause of human mortality and are recalcitrant to most treatments due to intrinsic drug resistance. These complex communities of multiple cell types form on indwelling medical devices and their eradication often requires ...

Phragmites australis Associates with Belowground Fungal Communities Characterized by High Diversity and Pathogen Abundance [PDF]

, 2020
Microbial symbionts are gaining attention as crucial drivers of invasive species spread and dominance. To date, much research has quantified the net effects of plant–microbe interactions on the relative success of native and invasive species ...

In silico reversal of repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) identifies the origins of repeat families and uncovers obscured duplicated genes [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) is a fungal genome defence mechanism guarding against transposon invasion. RIP mutates the sequence of repeated DNA and over time renders the affected regions unrecognisable by similarity search tools such ...
