MoGT2 Is Essential for Morphogenesis and Pathogenicity of Magnaporthe oryzae

open access: yesmSphere, 2019
Magnaporthe oryzae causes the rice blast disease, which is one of the most serious diseases of cultivated rice worldwide. Glycosylation is an important posttranslational modification of secretory and membrane proteins in all eukaryotes, catalyzed by ...

Genomic and Transcriptomic Analyses Provide Insights Into Erysiphe necator Pathogenicity and Grapevine Response

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grapevine powdery mildew, caused by the fungus Erysiphe necator, is one of the most prevalent obligate biotrophic pathogens in vineyards, posing a significant threat to grape production. Despite its impact, research on E. necator pathogenicity and grapevine responses remains limited.

The benefits of in silico modeling to identify possible small-molecule drugs and their off-target interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Accepted for publication in a future issue of Future Medicinal Chemistry.The research into the use of small molecules as drugs continues to be a key driver in the development of molecular databases, computer-aided drug design software and collaborative ...

Aquaporins in magnaporthe oryzae

open access: yes, 2013
The Ascomycete fungus Magnaporthe oryzae is the causative agent of Rice Blast, and has become the predominant model organism for study of fungal phytopathogens and other appressorium-forming fungi. I identified and attempted to elucidate the function of the six aquaporin genes in the M. oryzae genome.

Parasexual Recombination in Magnaporthe oryzae

open access: yesJapan Agricultural Research Quarterly: JARQ, 2011
Parasexual recombination is thought to be one of the causes of variation in the pathogenicity of rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, which breaks down resistant rice varieties. In this study, the virulence and fitness of parasexual recombinants of M. oryzae were examined in vitro and in the field.

Unfolding Plant Defence: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signalling at the Plant‐Pathogen Interface

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, a conserved proteostasis network, has emerged as a central hub that reprograms plant immunity during pathogen attack. This review synthesises how plants harness ER‐stress signalling to mount multilayered defences and how pathogens have evolved counterstrategies to subvert these pathways.

Global Analysis of Predicted G Protein-Coupled Receptor Genes in the Filamentous Fungus, Neurospora crassa. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulate facets of growth, development, and environmental sensing in eukaryotes, including filamentous fungi. The largest predicted GPCR class in these organisms is the Pth11-related, with members similar to a protein ...

Characterising the role of GABA and its metabolism in the wheat pathogen Stagonospora nodorum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A reverse genetics approach was used to investigate the role of γ-aminobutyric acid metabolism in the wheat pathogenic fungus Stagonospora nodorum. The creation of mutants lacking Sdh1, the gene encoding succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase, resulted in ...

Negative Regulators of Rice Agronomic Traits: Functional Insights and Applications in Genome Editing‐Based Breeding

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among current precision breeding strategies, genome editing has created new opportunities for crop improvement, but its success depends heavily on the selection of ...

Characterization of a Novel Ourmia-Like Mycovirus Infecting Magnaporthe oryzae and Implications for Viral Diversity and Evolution

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Here, the molecular characterization of a novel mycovirus that was isolated from a phytopathogenic fungus Magnaporthe oryzae and designed as Magnaporthe oryzae ourmia-like virus 4 (MOLV4) is reported. MOLV4 has a genome that is 2497 bp long and possesses
