Variation in host and pathogen in the Neonectria/Malus interaction; towards an understanding of the genetic basis of resistance to European canker [PDF]
Apple canker caused by the phytopathogenic fungus Neonectria ditissima is an economically important disease, which has spread in recent years to almost all pome-producing regions of the world. N.

Morpho-phylogenic characterization of Neonectria candida as a causal agent of a postharvest rot of pome fruit in the U.S. Pacific Northwest [PDF]
Neonectria fruit rot (NFR) is primarily attributed to Neonectria ditissima, the causal agent of European canker, in many apple-growing regions globally.

Susceptibility of Cider Apple Accessions to European Canker—Comparison between Evaluations in Field Planted Trees and Rapid Screening Tests [PDF]
European canker, caused by Neonectria ditissima Bres., is an economically damaging fungal disease of apple. Breeding new cultivars with a high level of resistance to European canker is the main aim of apple breeding programs.

Homoterpene Biosynthesis in Fungi. [PDF]
The first homoterpene biosynthetic pathway in the fungal kingdom is reported. A methyltransferase–terpene cyclase pair produces a unique heptamethyl bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane homoterpene via presodorifen, demonstrating that homoterpene biosynthesis via the addition of a C1 unit to terpene diphosphate precursors prior to scaffold formation extends beyond the

Reference genes for gene expression analysis in the fungal pathogen Neonectria ditissima and their use demonstrating expression up-regulation of candidate virulence genes [PDF]
European canker, caused by the necrotrophic fungal phytopathogen Neonectria ditissima, is one of the most damaging apple diseases worldwide. An understanding of the molecular basis of N. ditissima virulence is currently lacking.
