Forage Biomass and Chemical Composition of Buffelgrass Genotypes in the Semi‐Arid Region of Brazil
Forage improvement in semi‐arid regions requires the identification of genotypes capable of maintaining productivity under climatic variability and chronic water scarcity. This study evaluated six buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) genotypes over two production years in northern Minas Gerais, Brazil, to characterize their agronomic, morphological, and ...

G Protein α Subunit Genes Control Growth, Development, and Pathogenicity of Magnaporthe grisea
Three G protein α subunit genes have been cloned and characterized from Magnaporthe grisea: magA is very similar to CPG-2 of Cryphonectria parasitica; magB is virtually identical to CPG-1 of Cryphonectria parasitica, to gna1 of Neurospora crassa, and to ...

Gray Leaf Spot of St. Augustinegrass: Cultural and Chemical Management Options
Gray leaf spot disease, caused by the fungus Pyricularia grisea (also referred to as Magnaporthe grisea), slows grow-in, thins established stands, and can kill large areas of St. Augustinegrass turf during the frequent warm rainy periods associated with

TheMagnaporthe griseasnodprot1 homolog, MSP1, is required for virulence [PDF]
Secreted proteins play central roles in plant-microbe interactions acting as signals, toxins, and effectors. One important group of small secreted proteins is the snodprot1 family, members of which have demonstrated phytotoxic properties. A split-marker transformation system was applied for gene deletion of the snodprot1 homolog, MSP1, in the rice ...

Transposable Elements in Magnaporthe Species
The fungal species contain diverse transposable elements and repetitive sequences up to ~10% of their genome. It has been reported that distribution of transposable elements tends to correlate with the host range of the pathogen.

Methylation is not the main force repressing the retrotransposon MAGGY in Magnaporthe grisea [PDF]
We have introduced the LTR-retrotransposon MAGGY into a naive genome of Magnaporthe grisea and estimated the copy number of MAGGY in a cell by serial isolation of fungal protoplasts at certain time intervals. The number of MAGGY elements rapidly increased for a short period following introduction.

A whole‐genome assembly of St. Augustinegrass and visualizing diversity within the species
Abstract St. Augustinegrass [Stenotaphrum secundatum (Walt.) Kuntze] is a warm‐season turfgrass species in the family Poaceae. This species is a popular choice for lawns in the Southern United States, due to its higher tolerance to shade, heat and humidity.

The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea infects plants by means of specialized infection structures known as appressoria. Turgor generated in the appressorium provides the invasive force that allows the fungus to breach the leaf cuticle with a narrow ...
