Detection of Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa Causing Blackleg Disease in Canola from Canadian Canola Seed Lots and Dockage [PDF]
Plants, 2016 Blackleg, caused by Leptosphaeria maculans, is a major threat to canola production in Canada. With the exception of China, L. maculans is present in areas around the world where cruciferous crops are grown.

The Identity, Virulence, and Antifungal Effects of the Didymellacesous Fungi Associated with the Rapeseed Blackleg Pathogen Leptosphaeria biglobosa [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2023 Eight fungal strains (P1 to P8) were isolated from rapeseed stems (Brassica napus) infected with the blackleg pathogen Leptosphaeria biglobosa (Lb). They formed pycnidia with similar morphology to those of Lb, and thus were considered as Lb relatives ...

Less Virulent Leptosphaeria biglobosa Immunizes the Canola Plant to Resist Highly Virulent L. maculans, the Blackleg Pathogen [PDF]
Plants, 2022 Leptosphaeria biglobosa is a less virulent Leptosphaeria spp. that causes blackleg disease in canola. Previous studies from our lab have shown that inoculation with the less virulent L.

Location and timing govern tripartite interactions of fungal phytopathogens and host in the stem canker species complex [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2023 Background Leptosphaeria maculans “brassicae” (Lmb) and Leptosphaeria biglobosa “brassicae” (Lbb) make up a species complex involved in the stem canker (blackleg) disease of rapeseed (Brassica napus). They coinfect rapeseed together, from the early stage

Population Genomics analysis of Leptosphaeria biglobosa Associated with Brassica napus in China Reveals That Geographical Distribution Influences Its Genetic Polymorphism [PDF]
MicroorganismsBlackleg disease, a major threat to Brassica crops worldwide, is primarily caused by the pathogen Leptosphaeria biglobosa. Investigating the genetic variation of L. biglobosa is crucial for managing and preventing the disease in Brassica napus.

Bacterial and fungal endophyte communities in healthy and diseased oilseed rape and their potential for biocontrol of Sclerotinia and Phoma disease [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Phoma stem canker (caused by the ascomycetes Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa) is an important disease of oilseed rape. Its effect on endophyte communities in roots and shoots and the potential of endophytes to promote growth and ...

To be or not to be a nonhost species: A case study of the Leptosphaeria maculans and Brassica carinata interaction. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepThis work describes the nonhost resistance (NHR) of Brassica carinata to Leptosphaeria maculans. We identified natural isolates of L. maculans that are moderately adapted to B. carinata and generated recombinant strains in the lab that are adapted to B. carinata.
