The Putative Effector Protein AlPE1 From Ascochyta lentis Causes Necrosis in Lentil and Pea
Legume Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2026.ABSTRACT Ascochyta blight of lentil is caused by the hemibiotrophic fungal pathogen species Ascochyta lentis. Recent advances in whole genome sequencing have led to the availability of many fungal genome assemblies, enabling comparison of isolates that can lead to the identification of virulence genes or effectors.

Bipolar heterothallism in B‐group isolates of Leptosphaeria maculans [PDF]
Plant Pathology, 1997 Pairwise combinations were carried out between the eight isolates originating from each of three asci of the B‐group of Leptosphaeria maculans . Some of the pairings produced mature pseudothecia when incubated on wheat straws at 18°C and under a 12‐h photoperiod of blue light. Isolates within

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 4, July/August 2026.ABSTRACT Oilseed rape (Brassica napus) production faces a wide range of biotic threats. Pests typically pose a greater threat than diseases to oilseed rape, yet both vary considerably across the major cultivating regions. Management strategies often rely heavily on the use of chemical pesticides which may have harmful effects on the environment, thus ...

ESCRT: A Cellular Nexus of Plant Immunity and Pathogen Counter‐Strategies
Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) plays multifaceted roles in plants' responses to pathogens, including regulation of the localization and fate of immune receptors and other related cellular processes. ABSTRACT The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery consists of multiprotein complexes conserved ...

How to frustrate a plant pathogen
The Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 5, June 2026.SUMMARY Sequence‐unrelated but structurally similar (SUSS) effector families represent a distinctive evolutionary strategy among plant pathogen virulence proteins. Within families such as MAX, LARS and RALPH effectors, individual proteins maintain nearly identical three‐dimensional folds despite minimal sequence identities, whilst targeting ...

Clonal populations of Leptosphaeria maculans contaminating cabbage in Mexico [PDF]
Plant Pathology, 2012 The race structure and genotypic diversity of four Leptosphaeria maculans populations isolated from Brassica oleracea (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, etc.) in central Mexico (Aguascalientes, Guanajuato and Zacatecas states) were analysed.

H3K27me3‐Mediated Epigenetic Silencing of FgHMG1 Enables Fungal Host Immune Evasion
Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2843-2857, May 2026.ABSTRACT Histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) is essential for fungal pathogenicity, yet its contribution to pathogen–host interactions remains incompletely understood. Here, we profiled H3K27me3 dynamics in Fusarium graminearum during infection and identified 132 H3K27me3‐marked genes (FgHMGs).

Inheritance of Resistance to Leptosphaeria maculans in Brassica juncea [PDF]
Phytopathology®, 1997 The inheritance of resistance to Leptosphaeria maculans, the causal agent of black leg of crucifers, was studied in Brassica juncea. Three resistant accessions (UM3021, UM3043, and UM3323) and one susceptible accession (UM3132) of B. juncea were crossed in a complete diallel.
