Effector‐Mediated Spatial Reprogramming of Glycolate Oxidase Subverts Peroxisomal and Membrane‐Associated ROS Defences

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oomycete pathogens secrete hundreds of RXLR effectors into plant cells to modulate host immunity by targeting diverse plant proteins. Here, we report that the Peronophythora litchii RXLR effector PlAvh133 acts as a virulence factor and targets the litchi glycolate oxidase (GLO) LcGLO1, a key enzyme in photorespiration, thereby suppressing ...

Join the Green and Sustainable Team: Magnesium Oxide Nanoparticles Boost Broad‐Spectrum Viral Resistance in Solanaceae Plants

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant viruses are so harmful to crops. It is an urgent need to develop modern, environment‐friendly, and sustainable plant viral epidemic‐management strategies that are safe for both human health and the environment. The field of nanotechnology is gaining increased interest in plant science.

Sexual reproduction in Phytophthora infestans [PDF]

, 2007
Potato late blight, caused by the oomycete Phytophthora infestans, is one of the most devastating plant diseases worldwide. It is becoming increasingly difficult to control the disease in Sweden, leading to an ever more intensified use of fungicides in ...

Repression of the auxin response pathway increases Arabidopsis susceptibility to necrotrophic fungi

, 2008
In plants, resistance to necrotrophic pathogens depends on the interplay between different hormone systems, such as those regulated by salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA), ethylene, and abscisic acid.

‘Candidatus Liberibacter Asiaticus’ Effector SECP8 Subverts Salicylic Acid‐Mediated Citrus Immunity via a Two‐Pronged Impairment of CsTCP15 Dimerization

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB), a devastating disease caused by the unculturable bacterium ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas), poses a severe threat to global citrus production. CLas secretes effectors to suppress host immune responses and facilitate its colonisation. Previously, the CLas effector SECP8 (CLIBASIA_05330) has been identified

Cladobotryum mycophilum as Potential Biocontrol Agent [PDF]

, 2019
A study was conducted to explore the efficacy of potential biocontrol agent Cladobotryum mycophilum against different phytopathogenic fungi. The growth rates of 24 isolates of C. mycophilum were determined, and their antagonistic activity was analysed in

H3K27me3‐Mediated Epigenetic Silencing of FgHMG1 Enables Fungal Host Immune Evasion

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) is essential for fungal pathogenicity, yet its contribution to pathogen–host interactions remains incompletely understood. Here, we profiled H3K27me3 dynamics in Fusarium graminearum during infection and identified 132 H3K27me3‐marked genes (FgHMGs).

WRKY Transcription Factors: Integral Regulators of Defence Responses to Biotic Stress in Crops

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Crops are continually challenged by biotic stresses, including fungal, bacterial and viral pathogens and insect pests, which cause substantial yield and quality losses worldwide. WRKY transcription factors constitute a plant‐specific and functionally diverse family that is central to immune regulation.
