Pest categorisation of Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae
The EFSA Plant Health Panel performed a pest categorisation of Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae, a clearly defined fungus of the family Botryosphaeriaceae, which was first described in 2008 as a cryptic species within the L. theobromae complex.

Tea Plant miR5368-p5 Negatively Regulates Resistance Against Lasiodiplodia theobromae Through Targeting the CsWRKY57-CsLRR-RLK Module. [PDF]
The tea plant transcription factor CsWRKY57, which is cleaved by miR5368‐p5, exhibits resistance to Lasiodiplodia theobromae infection and can activate the expression of the disease resistance gene CsLRR‐RLK. ABSTRACT Lasiodiplodia theobromae can cause severe diseases, including leaf spot, leaf necrosis and stem canker in tea plants, leading to ...

Molecular Characterisation of Fungi Populations in the Chronic Wounds of Filarial Lymphedema Patients in Southern Ghana: A Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Lymphatic filariasis (LF) and associated chronic wounds are of public health concern worldwide. Despite the significant burden of lymphatic filariasis (LF) and its associated chronic wounds, the fungal component of the wound microbiome remains poorly understood. Previous research has primarily focused on bacterial pathogens,

Argonaute1-Dependent LtmilR2 Negatively Regulated Infection of Lasiodiplodia theobromae by Targeting a Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factor in RAS Signalling. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Lasiodiplodia theobromae (L. theobromae) is the causative agent of grapevine canker disease, which is a serious threat to global grape production. Currently, no effective fungicides are available to manage this disease. In this study, LtmilR2 was identified as an Argonaute1 (AGO1)‐dependent small RNA produced by L. theobromae.

Active chitosan coating to inhibit decay and maintain mango postharvest quality. [PDF]
Abstract BACKGROUND Microbial decay limits the storage, quality and trade of mangoes (Mangifera indica). We developed an active chitosan coating containing zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO‐NPs) and Eucalyptus radiata essential oil (EEO) to inhibit decay and preserve postharvest quality of mango. Chitosan (cationic) can disrupt microbial membranes; ZnO‐NPs

Characterization of Lasiodiplodia species associated with grapevines in Mexico
Botryosphaeria dieback is one of the most prevalent grapevine trunk diseases (GTDs), and is caused by fungi in the Botryosphaeriaceae. Fungi invade grapevine vascular systems mainly through pruning wounds, and cause cankers and necrotic lesions, which ...
