Production and Characterization of Carboxymethylcellulase by Submerged Fermentation of Moniliophthora perniciosa

Catalysis Research, 2023
Microorganisms that are capable of degrading lignocellulolytic materials can produce extracellular cellulase complexes. Microorganisms are an excellent alternative for the production of cellulolytic complex, since these sources have a high power of ...

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

BMC Microbiol, 2009
AbstractBackgroundThe hemibiotrophic fungusMoniliophthora perniciosais the causal agent of Witches' broom, a disease ofTheobroma cacao. The pathogen life cycle ends with the production of basidiocarps in dead tissues of the infected host. This structure generates millions of basidiospores that reinfect young tissues of the same or other plants.

Mitochondrial Genomics of Six Cacao Pathogens From the Basidiomycete Family Marasmiaceae

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Thread blight disease has recently been described as an emerging disease on cacao (Theobroma cacao) in Ghana. In Ghana, thread blight disease is caused by multiple species of the Marasmiaceae family: Marasmius tenuissimus, M. crinis-equi, M.

Induction of systemic resistance in Theobroma cacao L. for the management of “witches’ broom” caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa

Tropical Plant Pathology, 2023
The pathogen Moliniophthora perniciosa can cause losses in the cocoa crop of more than 90% when integrated disease management is not carried out in the crop.

Genetics resources to study Moniliophthora perniciosa

, 2023
Moniliophthora perniciosa, the causal agent of wicthes´ broom disease of cacao, is one of the main cacao pathogens in the tropical. Besides species of the Malvaceae family, the fungal has emerged in host species of the Solanaceae, Malpighiaceae, and Bignoniaceae families. This host range is still poorly understood.

Geographic distribution, conservation, and genomic resources of cacao Theobroma cacao L

Crop Science, Volume 63, Issue 4, Page 1750-1778, July/August 2023., 2023
Abstract The cacao tree, Theobroma cacao L., is cultivated in the tropics, mainly in agroforestry systems, to produce seeds, the valuable raw material for the chocolate industry. Thus, the conservation and use of cacao genetic resources in breeding programs to increase yield and improve quality and disease resistance are vital for the global cacao ...

Structural and functional analysis of the cerato‐platanin‐like protein Cpl1 suggests diverging functions in smut fungi

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 768-787, July 2023., 2023
Our structure–function analysis of the CP‐like protein 1 (Cpl1) from Ustilago maydis revealed a new mode of chitin binding and suggests synergy with other secreted fungal proteins during infection. Abstract Plant‐pathogenic fungi are causative agents of the majority of plant diseases and can lead to severe crop loss in infected populations.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms from Theobroma cacao expressed sequence tags associated with witches' broom disease in cacao [PDF]

, 2009
In order to increase the efficiency of cacao tree resistance to witches¿ broom disease, which is caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa (Tricholomataceae), we looked for molecular markers that could help in the selection of resistant cacao genotypes.

Moniliophthora perniciosa, the causal agent of witches' broom disease of cacao, interferes with cytokinin metabolism during infection of Micro-Tom tomato and promotes symptom development.

New Phytologist, 2021
Moniliophthora perniciosa causes witches' broom disease of cacao and inflicts symptoms suggestive of hormonal imbalance. We investigated whether infection of the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) model system Micro-Tom (MT) by the Solanaceae (S)-biotype of M.
