Transposons as Tools for Future Genome Engineering in Yeasts and Filamentous Fungi

Yeast, EarlyView.
Applications of transposon‐based tools for genome engineering in fungi include transposon‐mediated mutagenesis and targeted genomic integration. ABSTRACT Transposons are fundamental genetic elements that have profoundly shaped the architecture of eukaryotic genomes.

Insights into tandem dioxygenases—copper radical oxidases in fungal Phytopathogens of the Colletotrichum acutatum species complex

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In Colletotrichum acutatum species complex, conserved ring‐cleavage dioxygenases located adjacent to AA5_2 enzymes were investigated as potential redox partners. Biochemical analyses identified the dioxygenases as intradiol‐cleaving enzymes preferentially oxidizing methyl‐substituted catechols, while AA5_2 enzymes displayed weak alcohol oxidase ...

Functional evaluation of a homologue of plant rapid alkalinisation factor (RALF) peptides in Fusarium graminearum [PDF]

, 2020
The cereal infecting fungus Fusarium graminearum is predicted to possess a single homologue of plant RALF peptides. Fusarium mutant strains lacking FgRALF were generated and found to exhibit wildtype virulence on wheat and Arabidopsis floral tissue ...

Diversity and pathogenicity of Fusarium species associated with Fusarium head blight in wheat and maize cropping systems in Sichuan Province

Scientific Reports
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a severe disease worldwide that leads to substantial economic losses. Wheat‒maize cropping is the dominant system in Sichuan Province, China.

Engineered Yarrowia lipolytica inducing gene silencing confers control ability against gray mold in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Engineered the plant‐colonizing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce and deliver double‐stranded RNAs targeting key genes of the gray mold fungus Botrytis cinerea produced a ‘living factory’ that continuously synthesizes and releases gene‐silencing molecules on plant surfaces, effectively suppressing the pathogen.

Efficiency of RNAi‐based gene silencing in fungi: a meta‐analysis

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Mechanistic interpretation of RNAi efficiency across fungal lifestyles and delivery strategies based on the present meta‐analysis. Summary RNA interference (RNAi) shows great potential to protect crops against fungal diseases, yet reported protection efficiencies vary greatly, and our understanding of the factors responsible for this variance remains ...

Genome Sequence of Fusarium graminearum strain CML3066 isolated from a wheat spike in Southern Brazil [PDF]

, 2020
Fusarium graminearum is a global fungal pathogen of wheat and other small grains, causing Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) disease, also known as wheat scab. We report herein the annotated genome of a deoxynivalenol/15-acetyl-deoxynivalenol-producing Brazilian

Role of Hydroxycinnamic Acids in the Infection of Maize Silks by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2011
In the current study, the hydroxycinnamic acids in silks of diverse maize inbred lines differing in Fusarium resistance were determined at several times after inoculation with Fusarium graminearum or sterile water as control.

Multiplexed Engineering of Disease Resistance and Lodging Tolerance in Wheat Via a Single Xylan Modifying Glycosyltransferase

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Breeding crops with robust disease resistance often compromises yield, a persistent challenge in agricultural improvement. We report that modifying cell wall architecture through a xylan‐specific glycosyltransferase successfully breaks this trade‐off in wheat.
