The Moniliophthora roreri Effector MrB1 Affects Cellular Homeostasis and Induces Genotype-Dependent Necrosis in Theobroma cacao. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol
The effector MrB1 induces cytotoxicity in plant cells through oxidative stress, membrane damage, protein folding collapse, and energy failure. These alterations compromise cellular integrity and result in necrosis. ABSTRACT Frosty pod rot (FPR) is an invasive disease responsible for severe yield losses of cacao trees.

Expression of a Cutinase of Moniliophthora roreri with Polyester and PET-Plastic Residues Degradation Activity. [PDF]

Microbiol Spectr, 2021
Plastic pollution is exponentially increasing; even the G20 has recognized an urgent need to implement actions to reduce it. In recent years, searching for enzymes that can degrade plastics, especially those based on polyesters such as PET, has been increasing as they can be a green alternative to the actual plastic degradation process.

Adoption of Innovations for Cacao Pest and Disease Management in Huila, Colombia: Insights From Regression and Social Network Analysis. [PDF]

Scientifica (Cairo)
Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) is fundamental to rural economies in Colombia, with Huila contributing 8% of the national output. However, its production is severely constrained by pests and diseases, such as Moniliophthora roreri, Phytophthora palmivora, and Carmenta foraseminis, which can cause yield losses of 30%–100%. Limited adoption of integrated pest

Effects of microclimatic variables on the symptoms and signs onset of Moniliophthora roreri, causal agent of Moniliophthora pod rot in cacao. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2017
Moniliophthora Pod Rot (MPR) caused by the fungus Moniliophthora roreri (Cif.) Evans et al., is one of the main limiting factors of cocoa production in Latin America. Currently insufficient information on the biology and epidemiology of the pathogen limits the development of efficient management options to control MPR.

An Ustilaginoidea virens glycoside hydrolase 42 protein is an essential virulence factor and elicits plant immunity as a PAMP

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 1414-1429, November 2023., 2023
UvGHF1, as a GH42‐type glycosyl hydrolase secreted by Ustilaginoidea virens, contributes to U. virens virulence, whereas it is recognized by the rice surveillance system to trigger plant immunity. Abstract Rice false smut, caused by the ascomycete fungus Ustilaginoidea virens, which infects rice florets before heading, severely threatens rice grain ...
