Identification of <i>Fusarium verticillioides</i> Isolates and Their Impact on Seed Germination and Biochemical Profiles in Maize. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Fusarium verticillioides is a common fungal pathogen of maize that causes significant losses in seed quality and seedling performance. Despite the high prevalence of this fungus in Ghanaian maize varieties, there is relatively little knowledge of the impact of F. verticillioides on seedling performance of Ghanaian maize varieties.

Gap-Free Nuclear and Mitochondrial Genomes of Fusarium verticillioides Strain HN2
Fusarium ear rot (FER) and Fusarium stalk rot (FSR), caused by the filamentous fungus Fusarium verticillioides, have become increasingly serious around the world. Additionally, fumonisins produced by F. verticillioides threaten food and feed security. By

Mesoionic compounds with antifungal activity against Fusarium verticillioides [PDF]
Fungi contaminate the food of humans and animals, are a risk to health, and can cause financial losses. In this work, the antifungal activities of 16 mesoionic compounds (MI 1-16) were evaluated against mycotoxigenic fungi, including Aspergillus spp., Fusarium verticillioides and Penicillium citrinum.

A Coumarin Compound Derived From Zanthoxylum avicennae Reduces the Pathogenicity of Fusarium verticillioides by Directly Binding to and Inhibiting Glycoside Hydrolase 3 Activity [PDF]
Luvangetin, a coumarin compound from Zanthoxylum avicennae roots, affects the cell wall degradation capacity and pathogenicity of Fusarium verticillioides on maize. Integrated transcriptomic, proteomic and in vitro activity analyses revealed that it binds to three critical sites of the Fusarium glycoside hydrolase 3 family (GH3) β‐glucosidase ...

Biology of Maize Kernel Infection by Fusarium verticillioides [PDF]
Fusarium kernel rot disease starburst symptomatology was characterized fully for the first time. Two maize lines were hand pollinated and inoculated, using a fluorescent protein-expressing transformant of the fungal pathogen Fusarium verticillioides, by introduction of a conidial suspension through the silk channel of intact ears.

Loss of ZmLIPOXYGENASE4 Decreases Fusarium verticillioides Resistance in Maize Seedlings [PDF]
Fusarium verticillioides is one of the most relevant fungal species in maize responsible for ear, stalk and seedling rot, as well as the fumonisin contamination of kernels. Plant lipoxygenases (LOX) synthesize oxylipins that play a crucial role in the regulation of defense mechanisms against pathogens and influence the outcome of pathogenesis.
