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.

Genetic variability of Moniliophthora perniciosa isolated from Theobroma sp. [PDF]

, 2016
The fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa is the causal agent one of the main cacao (Theobroma cacao) and cupuassu (Theobroma grandiflorum) disease, of which have origin probably in the Amazon basin. The genetic knowledge is important for better understanding

Transgenic tomato expressing an oxalate decarboxylase gene from Flammulina sp. shows increased survival to Moniliophthora perniciosa [PDF]

, 2022
Witches' broom disease which affects cacao tree (Theobroma cacao L.) is caused by the hemibiotrophic fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa. Studies of the cacao-M. perniciosa interaction showed that the pathogenicity of M.

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

The 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 ...

The American cocoa pod borer, Carmenta foraseminis, an emerging pest of cocoa: A review El barrenador americano de la mazorca de cacao, Carmenta foraseminis, una plaga emergente del cacao: una revisión

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 340-356, August 2025.
Abstract This review provides a synthesis of the available knowledge on Carmenta foraseminis, an emerging cocoa pest in northern South America. This moth was first described in 1995 in Panama, and its proliferation across the Amazon basin is currently threatening the production of cocoa in the region and may endanger the sector's sustainability. Hence,
