Pythium oligandrum induces grapevine defence mechanisms against the trunk pathogen Neofusicoccum parvum

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2020
Grapevine trunk diseases (GTDs) are increasing in vineyards in many grape production regions. Among the pathogens causing these diseases, Neofusicoccum parvum, is one of the most frequent and virulent. To control GTDs, biocontrol is being developed using

Fungal Species of Botryosphaeriaceae Associated With Avocado Dieback in Southern Spain

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
In southern Spain, water scarcity has favoured avocado diseases, causing branch dieback, mummified fruits and cankers. Between 2019 and 2022, 252 fungi were isolated; the most common were Neofusicoccum spp. and Lasiodiplodia sp. Their pathogenic role was confirmed, with Botryosphaeriaceae identified as the main cause of avocado dieback.
