Characterization of microsatellites from cacao–Moniliophthora perniciosa interaction expressed sequence tags [PDF]

open access: possibleMolecular Breeding, 2008
Theobroma cacao L.–Moniliophthora perniciosa expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were converted into useful satellite markers for population analysis and genetic mapping. Forty-nine flanking primer pairs from TSH1188 (a resistant genotype) and Catongo (a susceptible genotype) ESTs were designed and screened for polymorphism analysis. Eleven were polymorphic,

Population structure of Moniliophthora perniciosa in the main cacao producing departments of Colombia.

Plant Disease, 2021
The witches' broom (Moniliophthora perniciosa) is considered as one of the main threats for cacao production and, consequently, for chocolate production worldwide.. In this work, the genetic diversity and population structure of M.

The Moniliophthora perniciosa – Cacao pod pathosystem: Structural and activated defense strategies against disease establishment

, 2021
The infectious process of Moniliophthora perniciosa on cacao pods of different resistant sources to witches' broom disease of cacao; i.e., TSH1188 (resistant) and Catongo (susceptible), was evaluated at the histological and enzymatic levels.

Biologia de Sistemas de Pectinases do Fungo Moniliophthora perniciosa

Diálogos & Ciência, 2013
Pectinases (pectin methylesterases [PMEs], polygalacturonases [PGs] and protopectinases) are enzymes involved in the degradation of the pectic molecule, which is the main component of the plant middle lamella. Phytopathogens produce such enzymes, which are very important for their virulence.

Root Development of Tomato Plants Infected by the Cacao Pathogen Moniliophthora perniciosa Is Affected by Limited Sugar Availability.

Plant, Cell and Environment
Moniliophthora perniciosa is the causal agent of the witches' broom disease of cacao (Theobroma cacao), and it can infect the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) 'Micro-Tom' (MT) cultivar.

Moniliophthora perniciosa, the mushroom causing witches' broom disease of cacao: Insights into its taxonomy, ecology and host range in Brazil.

Fungal Biology, 2020
Witches' broom caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa is the main disease of cacao (Theobroma cacao) in Brazil. The fungus is known to occur on other host families and these populations have been addressed in the literature as biotypes: C (Malvaceae); H ...

Hydrosoluble phylloplane components of Theobroma cacao modulate the metabolism of Moniliophthora perniciosa spores during germination.

Fungal Biology, 2020
The surface of plants forms a defense barrier that directly inhibits the first point of contact of microorganisms with the host. To understand this defense mechanism in Moniliophthora perniciosa interaction with Theobroma cacao cv Catongo, the aim of ...

Homology modelling of pyrophosphosrylase, enzyme involved in chitin pathway of Moniliophthora perniciosa

International Journal of Bioinformatics Research and Applications, 2009
Moniliophthora perniciosa (Sthael) (Singer) Phillips-Mora is the causal agent of witches' broom disease, which can infect Theobroma cacao decreasing the production of cocoa about 60%. M. perniciosa has a set of potential enzymes that can be useful targets for design of new inhibitors.

Recombinant β-1,3-1,4-glucanase from Theobroma cacao impairs Moniliophthora perniciosa mycelial growth

Molecular Biology Reports, 2013
In this work, we identified a gene from Theobroma cacao L. genome and cDNA libraries, named TcGlu2, that encodes a β-1,3-1,4-glucanase. The TcGlu2 ORF was 720 bp in length and encoded a polypeptide of 239 amino acids with a molecular mass of 25.58 kDa. TcGlu2 contains a conserved domain characteristic of β-1,3-1,4-glucanases and presented high protein ...
