Unravelling the molecular virulence mechanisms of Neonectria ditissima, a fungal pathogen of apple

This thesis addresses the challenge of elucidating the molecular basis of Neonectria ditissima virulence on apple fruit. N. ditissima is a necrotrophic pathogen that causes European canker and fruit rot, posing a significant threat to global apple crops.

Volatile organic compounds associated with neonectria ditissima infection in apples (Malus pumila cv Gala) [PDF]

Postharvest diseases in apples during long term storage result in loss and waste. This is mainly caused by fungal pathogens. Fungal contamination and rot can change some of the volatile organic compounds (VOC) emitted by apple fruits.

Effekt av temperatur på sporespiring og mottakelegheit for infeksjon av Neonectria ditissima på epletre.

European canker is one of the most important diseases affecting apple trees in Norway. The disease is caused by the ascomycete Neonectria ditissima. The fungus spreads by macro- and microconidia formed in sporodochia and by ascospores formed in perithecia.

SCREENING OF APPLE CULTIVARS FOR RESISTANCE TO EUROPEAN CANKER, NEONECTRIA DITISSIMA

Acta Horticulturae, 2013
European canker, caused by the fungus Neonectria ditissima, is a severe problem in apple production both in Sweden and in many other northern European countries. Even when applying fungicides and good horticultural practices, canker damage occurs almost yearly in nurseries and orchards. Some years, devastating outbreaks destroy numerous trees. To date,

Real-time PCR for detection and quantification, and histological characterization of Neonectria ditissima in apple trees

Trees - Structure and Function, 2016
Key message We designed a pair of primers from a region of the β-tubulin gene to detect and quantifyNeonectria ditissimain wood of some infected apple cultivars, and optimized light microscopy to study fungal-plant interactions.

Resolving the status ofNeonectria ditissimain South Africa

Australasian Plant Pathology, 2010
Fruit pathogens are currently one of the main factors involved in quarantine-related market access. Unconfirmed South African records pertaining to the presence of the causative agent of European canker of apples, Neonectria ditissima, have been the cause of many disputes regarding its status as a quarantine pest in this country. To clarify this issue,

Approaches for evaluation of resistance to European canker (Neonectria ditissima) in apple

Acta Horticulturae, 2016
European canker is caused by the fungus Neonectria ditissima (Neonectria galligena, formerly Nectria galligena). The disease causes significant losses to apple production in Sweden and many other countries with a temperate wet climate. Application of fungicides and good horticultural practices do not prevent canker damage in nurseries and orchards ...

Dormouse injuries predispose beech to infection byNeonectria ditissima

Forest Pathology, 2011
SummaryAfter awaking from winter hibernation, the Edible dormouse begins to feed by stripping the bark and the outer part of the xylem from the branches of both broadleaves and conifers. Natural or artificial wounds are essential for the penetration and colonisation of the tissues by the fungal pathogenNeonectria ditissima.

Resistance to Neonectria ditissima in apple: insights from metabolomics and lipidomics analyses

Acta Horticulturae, 2023
European canker, caused by the necrotrophic fungus Neonectria ditissima, is the most serious disease in apple production in Sweden. The disease is favored by a relatively cool and rainy climate. The canker damages have a significant economic impact due to reduced bearing surface and increased orchard management costs. The possibilities for chemical and

Neonectria ditissima physiological traits and susceptibility of ‘Gala’ and ‘Eva’ detached apple fruit [PDF]

Tropical Plant Pathology, 2020
European Canker and Neonectria fruit rot (NFR), caused by Neonectria ditissima, has become a major problem for the production of apples (Malus domestica) in Brazil. This study characterized environmental factors affecting in vitro growth and germination of Neonectria ditissima as well as infection, colonization and reproduction, ex vivo, on ‘Gala’ and ‘
