Molecular Detection of Exserohilum turcicum in Maize Seeds: Validation of Specific Primers and Development of PCR/qPCR Protocols

open access: yesJournal of Phytopathology, Volume 174, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Northern corn leaf blight, one of the most devastating diseases of maize (Zea mays), is caused by Exserohilum turcicum. This pathogen is widely distributed and can be found in maize fields across most regions of the world. The association of pathogens with seeds is considered a serious threat to the establishment of a field since seeds are ...

The Genome of the Rice Variety Mowanggu Provides Insight Into Resistance to Magnaporthe oryzae

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Chromosome‐scale Mowanggu genome sequence reveals durable, broad‐spectrum rice blast resistance; expansion of RLK/NBS genes at Pi49, with OSAmwg_038136 enhancing defence and interacting with OsDIP1 to regulate resistance. ABSTRACT Food security remains a pressing global challenge, particularly for staple crops like rice. The traditional Yunnan landrace

Stagonosporopsis cucurbitacearum Effector Protein ScAA9 Contributes to Virulence and Triggers Plant Immune Responses

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
The AA9 family protein ScAA9 of Stagonosporopsis cucurbitacearum plays dual roles as both a virulence factor for infection and a PAMP for host immune manipulation, highlighting the complexity of S. cucurbitacearum–host interactions. ABSTRACT Fungal pathogens secrete cell wall‐degrading enzymes that either act as virulence factors or are perceived by ...

ApCtf1β‐Interacting Target Proteins BDPH1 and BDEUL12 Regulate Pathogenicity in Arthrinium phaeospermum

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study found that BDPH1 and BDEUL12 interact with Apctf1β. They regulate growth, development, and chemical stress response in Arthrinium phaeospermum, and are crucial for its pathogenicity. ABSTRACT Arthrinium phaeospermum is the primary pathogen responsible for shoot blight disease in Bambusa pervariabilis × Dendrocalamopsis grandis.

Finding balance: the dynamic interplay between H3K27me3 writers and erasers in regulating environmental plasticity and memory

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 5, Page 2241-2250, March 2026.
Summary Subject to an ever‐changing world, plants must respond to harmful conditions and environmental fluctuations. Their evolutionary success can be attributed to their plasticity in both perceiving and integrating these variations to facilitate adaptation.

TaSPX3 Enhances Wheat Resistance to Leaf Rust by Antagonising TaDi19‐Mediated Repression of Pathogenesis‐Related Genes

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1031-1043, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Wheat leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina (Pt), threatens global wheat production, with yield losses further exacerbated by the pathogen's evolving virulence. Although Syg1/Pho81/Xpr1 (SPX) domain‐containing proteins are known regulators of phosphate homeostasis, their involvement in plant–pathogen interactions remains largely unexplored ...

An Ustilaginoidea virens Nuclear Effector SCRE7 Inhibits Rice Immunity via Suppressing OsLBD11/12‐Promoted Transcription of OsCPS2

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1305-1321, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Phytopathogenic fungi secrete a great number of effector proteins into various organelles of host plants and suppress plant immunity through different mechanisms. In this study, we identify SCRE7 as a unique nuclear effector that is essential for U. virens infection.

The Zma‐miRNA319‐ZmMYB74 Module Regulates Maize Resistance to Stalk Rot Disease by Modulating Lignin Deposition

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1598-1619, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Stalk rot, primarily caused by Fusarium graminearum (Fg) and Pythium inflatum (Pi), is a major maize disease responsible for significant yield losses. The molecular mechanisms governing defence against these pathogens remain poorly understood. To uncover key miRNAs and their regulatory genes, small RNA, degradome, and transcriptome sequencing ...
