Vinasse Waste from Sugarcane-Based Bioethanol Production Plants Kills Moniliophthora Perniciosa, the Causative Agent of Cacao Witches' Broom Disease

Annals of Agricultural & Crop Sciences, 2021
Bioethanol production based on sugarcane juice fermentation yields vinasse, a dark, dense liquid waste high in potassium. In Brazil, one of the world’s biggest bioethanol producer, vinasse is used for fertirrigation of the sugar-cane fields, replacing ...

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

The 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 ...

Proteomic profile of the fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa in response to PR10 from Theobroma cacao : [Abstract R9140] [PDF]

, 2011
Witches' broom disease is caused by the hemibiotrophic basidiomycete Moniliophthora perniciosa. This pathogen is the main cause of the decline in cocoa production, and consequently of social, economic and environmental problems.

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

Molecular 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

Plant 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.
