Coffee wilt disease: The forgotten threat to coffee
This review describes a series of hugely damaging outbreaks of coffee wilt disease across Africa over the past century, and evaluates strategic successes and failures in tackling its second wave. Photo: G Hakiza. Abstract Coffee is attacked by several highly damaging pests and diseases, which include coffee wilt disease (CWD).

Alternaria diseases on potato and tomato
We review the major Alternaria species that cause early blight disease complex (genetic diversity, genome structure and mechanisms of pathogenicity), management strategies such as resistance breeding and fungicide resistance. Abstract Alternaria spp. cause different diseases in potato and tomato crops. Early blight caused by Alternaria solani and brown

A SVM Gray-Box Model for a Solid Substrate Fermentation Process
Gray-Box models (GBM) which combine a priori knowledge of a process – e.g. first principle equations - with a black-box modeling technique are useful when some parameters of the first-principle model – normally time-variant parameters like the specific ...

Damage to the intestinal mucosal barrier and dysbiosis of the gut microbiota are critical factors in HIV progression, reciprocally influencing each other. Besides bacteria, the fungal microbiota, a significant component of the gut, plays a pivotal role in this dysregulation.

Diversity and evolution of Fusarium species in the Gibberella fujikuroi complex [PDF]
The Gibberella fujikuroi complex (GFC) is a monophyletic taxon that includes an assemblage of Fusarium species with similar and overlapping morphological traits that complicates their differentiation.

Antifungal influence of a melanin producer Pseudonadsoniella brunnea culture fluid on Gibberella fujikuroi (anamorph: Fusarium verticillioides) [PDF]
The influence of culture fluid of a yeast-like fungus, melanin producer Pseudonadsoniella brunnea (Meripilaceae, Agaricomycotina) on pathogenic fungi of the genus Gibberella (anamorph of Gibberella fujikuroi, i.e.: Fusarium verticillioides) (Nectriaceae,

Elucidation of the biosynthetic pathway of cis-jasmone in Lasiodiplodia theobromae
In plants, cis-jasmone (CJ) is synthesized from α-linolenic acid (LA) via two biosynthetic pathways using jasmonic acid (JA) and iso-12-oxo-phytodienoic acid (iso-OPDA) as key intermediates.

A Third Class: Functional Gibberellin Biosynthetic Operon in Beta-Proteobacteria
The ability of plant-associated microbes to produce gibberellin A (GA) phytohormones was first described for the fungal rice pathogen Gibberella fujikuroi in the 1930s.
