Unveiling molecular mechanisms of strobilurin resistance in the cacao pathogen Moniliophthora perniciosa [PDF]

iScience
Summary: Strobilurin fungicides inhibit mitochondrial respiration, leading to ATP depletion and oxidative stress. Although widely used in agriculture, these chemicals are ineffective against the cacao pathogen Moniliophthora perniciosa.

Proteomic analysis during of spore germination of Moniliophthora perniciosa, the causal agent of witches’ broom disease in cacao [PDF]

BMC Microbiology, 2017
Background Moniliophthora perniciosa is a phytopathogenic fungus responsible for witches’ broom disease of cacao trees (Theobroma cacao L.). Understanding the molecular events during germination of the pathogen may enable the development of strategies ...

The pathogen Moniliophthora perniciosa promotes differential proteomic modulation of cacao genotypes with contrasting resistance to witches´ broom disease [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology, 2020
Background Witches’ broom disease (WBD) of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.), caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa, is the most important limiting factor for the cacao production in Brazil. Hence, the development of cacao genotypes with durable resistance is the

A genome survey of Moniliophthora perniciosa gives new insights into Witches' Broom Disease of cacao [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2008
Background The basidiomycete fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa is the causal agent of Witches' Broom Disease (WBD) in cacao (Theobroma cacao). It is a hemibiotrophic pathogen that colonizes the apoplast of cacao's meristematic tissues as a biotrophic ...

Early development of Moniliophthora perniciosa basidiomata and developmentally regulated genes [PDF]

BMC Microbiology, 2009
Background The hemibiotrophic fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa is the causal agent of Witches' broom, a disease of Theobroma cacao. The pathogen life cycle ends with the production of basidiocarps in dead tissues of the infected host.
