Pore‐forming aegerolysin and MACPF proteins in extremotolerant or extremophilic fungi

IUBMB Life, Volume 76, Issue 11, Page 922-936, November 2024.
Abstract Aegerolysin proteins are involved in various interactions by recognising a molecular receptor in the target organism. The formation of pores in combination with larger, non‐aegerolysin‐like protein partners (such as membrane attack complex/perforin proteins [MACPFs]) is one of the possible responses in the presumed competitive exclusion of ...

The extraction and characterisation of a polysaccharide from Moniliophthora perniciosa CCMB 0257

Natural Product Research, 2017
The alpha-D-glucans are worldwide acknowledged as powerful immune system stimulants found in several sources; however, the fungal-derived sources appear to respond with higher activity. The present study has investigated polysaccharide production in Moniliophthora perniciosa. The dry biomass was subjected to thermal treatment in alkaline solution after

Cacao families and parents selected as resistant to natural infection of Moniliophthora perniciosa [PDF]

Crop Breeding and Applied Biotechnology, 2016
The known sources of resistance to witches’ broom (WB), a severe disease of cacao, are limited. Aiming to identify families and parents resistant to Moniliophthora perniciosa, a population of 22 families was evaluated by assessing the number of brooms formed per tree during 10 years under field conditions.

Fungi beyond limits: The agricultural promise of extremophiles

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 17, Issue 3, March 2024.
As the global climate evolves, understanding and harnessing the intricate mechanisms of fungal–plant interactions, especially in extreme environments, is paramount for developing effective and safe plant probiotics and using fungi as biocontrollers against phytopathogens.

Integrating new variables into a framework to support cacao denomination of origin: a case study in Southwest Colombia

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 1367-1381, February 2024.
Abstract BACKGROUND Cocoa quality plays a pivotal role in establishing denominations of origin, with genotypes, geography, climate and soil conditions being key variables. However, these factors have not been comprehensively explored in defining cacao denominations of origin.

Evaluation of Trichoderma spp for the biocontrol of Moniliophthora perniciosa Subgroup 1441

Journal of Biology and Life Science, 2011
Trichoderma species , isolated from different producer regions of cocoa (Bahia, Brazil), were evaluated as for their capacity of usage in the biocontrol of the basidiomycete Moniliophthora perniciosa subgroup 1441, which causes the witches’ broom in cocoa.

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

, 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 ...
