High-Affinity Copper Transport and Snq2 Export Permease of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Modulate Cytotoxicity of PR-10 from Theobroma cacao

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2009
A pathogenesis-related (PR) protein from Theobroma cacao (TcPR-10) was identified from a cacao–Moniliophthora perniciosa interaction cDNA library. Nucleotide and amino acid sequences showed homology with other PR-10 proteins having P loop motif and Betv1

Integrative chromosome‐scale genome analysis of cupuassu provides insights into witches' broom disease resistance and expands genomic resources for Theobroma

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Cupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum) is a fruit tree native to the Brazilian Amazon and increasingly relevant to regional bioeconomies. Its cultivation is severely affected by witches’ broom disease (WBD), caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa. While a chromosome‐scale genome of the susceptible genotype C1074 is available, the lack of a resistant ...

A Core Effector MoPce1 Is Required for the Pathogenicity of Magnaporthe oryzae by Modulating Catalase‐Mediated H2O2 Homeostasis in Rice

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
MoPce1, an atypical CAP/PR‐1 family effector, is essential for Magnaporthe oryzae virulence. MoPce1 functions by interacting with the rice catalase OsCATC to disrupt ROS homeostasis, thereby promoting host susceptibility. ABSTRACT Plant pathogens employ a diverse array of effectors to facilitate host colonisation, including evolutionarily conserved ...

Fungal Effectors in Biotrophic, Necrotrophic and Hemibiotrophic Pathosystems: A Systematic Review

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
This study compares the mechanisms of action of effectors across different fungal lifestyles. Biotrophs secrete effectors that suppress plant defences, necrotrophs release effectors that induce cell death by activating defence responses, and hemibiotrophs combine both strategies.

Machine learning‐driven GWAS uncovers novel candidate genes for resistance to frosty pod rot and witches' broom disease in cacao

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Cacao (Theobroma cacao), the source of chocolate, is threatened by devastating diseases like frosty pod rot (FPR) and witches' broom disease (WBD), impacting global production and farmer livelihoods. Here, we employ a machine learning‐driven genome‐wide association study to dissect the genetic architecture of disease resistance and ...
