Borrelidin-producing and root-colonizing Streptomyces rochei is a potent biopesticide for two soil-borne oomycete-caused plant diseases

Biological Control
Biopesticides are an attractive biotechnological alternative to conventional pesticides for soil-borne plant diseases. A screening strategy with over 100 actinomycetes bacteria isolated from diverse rhizosphere soils uncovered the Streptomyces rochei ...

The direct protein-protein interaction results in the arms race co-evolution between Magnaporthe oryzae AVR-Pik and rice Pik [PDF]

, 2012
Between pathogen and host, antagonistic interactions impose strong reciprocal selection on each organism, leading to the development of arms race evolutionary dynamics.

Drone‐imaging assisted genome‐wide association studies reveal key quantitative trait loci for emergence and late blight resistance in tetraploid potato

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Solanum tuberosum L. (potato) is the world's most important vegetable crop, and developing improved cultivars is paramount for global food security. The efficacy of the genomic prediction models that accelerate breeding and genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) depends on large, high‐quality phenotypic datasets, which are often associated ...

POOE: predicting oomycete effectors based on a pre-trained large protein language model

mSystems
Oomycetes are fungus-like eukaryotic microorganisms which can cause catastrophic diseases in many plants. Successful infection of oomycetes depends highly on their effector proteins that are secreted into plant cells to subvert plant immunity.

Genomic architecture of the resistance to Phytophthora cactorum 2 (RPc2) locus in strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa)

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Phytophthora crown rot, caused by Phytophthora cactorum, is a soilborne disease with broad impacts on cultivated strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa). A resistance locus, RPc2, was previously identified in octoploid strawberries, but the underlying genomic architecture and causal genes remained uncharacterized.

Genome‐wide exploration of bacterial leaf blight resistance and fine mapping of major resistance gene (Bb13) in upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

The Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract Cotton bacterial blight (CBB), caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. malvacearum (Xcm), continues to pose a significant threat to upland cotton (Gossypium spp.) production across the US Cotton Belt. To elucidate the genetic basis of resistance to race 18 of CBB and identify potential novel resistance sources, we conducted genome‐wide association ...

High‐Resolution Community Profiling of Active Bacteria and Eukaryotes in Replant‐Diseased Blueberry Farm Soils From New Jersey, USA

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.
Long read bacterial and eukaryotic ribosomal operon sequencing combined with stable isotope probing (SIP) allowed the differentiation of microbiomes in low‐ and high‐yield blueberry farm soils. This report may ultimately be used to improve productivity and potentially detect the responsible pathogenic agent(s) or other deleterious microbes.

Enterobacter Species: Opportunistic Human and Plant Pathogens With Plant‐Beneficial Traits

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
The pathogen profile on Enterobacter species synthesises current knowledge on host range, disease symptoms, plant‐beneficial traits and compares genomic features within the genus. ABSTRACT Enterobacter species occur across diverse habitats and are best known for causing opportunistic and nosocomial infections in humans.

Mechanistic Insights for Microbiome Application in Plant Disease Resistance

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
This review summarises the mechanisms underlying plant‐guided microbiome modulation and probiotic‐mediated disease suppression. Additionally, it highlights the challenges to be addressed for a better microbiome application of disease resistance in sustainable agriculture and proposes possible strategies. Figure was created with BioRender.
