Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.

Improving Decision‐Making in the Identification of Tephritidae Larvae at Import in the European Union and Key to Third Instar Larvae

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Tephritidae family, or true fruit flies, comprises approximately 250 species recognized as economically significant due to their capacity to infest commercial fruits. These pests pose serious threats to both food security and trade, and are considered quarantine pests in areas where they are not yet established. In the European Union (EU),

Identification and analysis of retrotransposon sequences in lycopersicon spp

, 1999
Retrotransposon Ty3/gypsy-like sequences were identified in the genomes of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) and several other Lycopersicon species by PCR analysis. The sequences were highly heterogeneous, as has been the case Analysis of sequences amplified by PCR showed that the phylogeny of the tomato Ty3/gypsy sequences was similar to that of the ...

S‑glutathionylation of MaWRKY44 orchestrates a MaZFP139‐MaWRKY44‐MaGSTU07 cascade to enhance banana cold tolerance

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In banana, at low temperatures (7°C), the transcription factor MaZFP139 activates MaWRKY44 expression. MaWRKY44 binds to the W‐box sites in the promoter of the glutathione S‐transferase gene MaGSTU07 to enhance reactive oxygen species scavenging. S‐glutathionylation protects MaWRKY44 from oxidation‐induced degradation, reinforcing antioxidant defenses ...

Homologues of the Cf-9 Disease Resistance Gene (Hcr9s) Are Present at Multiple Loci on the Short Arm of Tomato Chromosome 1

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1999
The tomato Cf-4 and Cf-9 genes map at a genetically complex locus on the short arm of chromosome 1 and confer resistance against Cladosporium fulvum through recognition of different pathogen-encoded avirulence determinants. Cf-4 and Cf-9 are members of a

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Leaf Structure and Hormonal Balance Modulate Host‐Specificity and Pathogenicity of Botrytis cinerea

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea, a highly successful necrotrophic fungal plant pathogen, demonstrates a remarkably broad host range, yet the precise factors governing its host specificity and its ability to coexist non‐pathogenically with plants remain unclear. This study systematically assessed host preference in a series of B. cinerea agricultural isolates,

Effects of Meloidogyne incognita on agronomic parameters and structural changes in eggplant (Solanum gilo Raddi) roots treated with Purpureocillium lilacinum

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Meloidogyne incognita impairs eggplant growth through gall formation with changes in root cell wall components and vascular tissue disruption, while the biocontrol agent Purpureocillium lilacinum mitigates these effects by reducing nematode infection. Abstract Meloidogyne spp. induce structural changes during the development of root‐knot galls, leading

Most AAL Toxin-Sensitive Nicotiana Species are Resistant to the Tomato Fungal Pathogen Alternaria alternata f. sp. lycopersici

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2001
The phytopathogenic fungus Alternaria alternata f. sp. lycopersici produces AAL toxins required to colonize susceptible tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) plants. AAL toxins and fumonisins of the unrelated fungus Fusarium moniliforme are sphinganine-analog
