The Mammalian Pathogenic Oomycetes
Current Fungal Infection Reports, 2013The oomycetes are fungal-like microbes similar to those found within some members of the kingdom Fungi. Although these two groups of microbes share morphological features, there are several contrasting differences: a) phylogenetic analysis placed the oomycetes basal to plants and green algae; b) oomycetes lack ergosterol in their cytoplasmic membrane ...

CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing approaches in filamentous fungi and oomycetes
Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2019 Due to their biotechnological relevance as well as their importance as disease agents, filamentous fungi and oomycetes have been prime candidates for genetic selection and in vitro manipulation for decades.

Abstract Oomycetes are in the Stramenopiles group of protists and many are aggressive plant pathogens. Oomycetes grow as coenocytic hyphae creating mycelial networks. They can reproduce through long-lasting sexual oospores or asexual chlamydospores.

Population Structure of Oomycetes
1999The class Oomycetes includes saprobes and pathogens of both plants and insects. However, the plant pathogens have been studied most intensively so will be the primary subject of this chapter. Important plant pathogens include Pythium, Phytophthora, and the Peronosporaceae, commonly known as the downy mildews.

The most important oomycete forest pathogens comprise two genera: Pythium and the formidable genus Phytophthora, whose name appropriately means 'plant destroyer'. Pythium spp. cause seed and root rots and damping off diseases that thwart seedling establishment, and have been implicated in helping to drive forest diversity patterns through increased ...

Exoproteinases of the Oomycete Phytophthora infestans
Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology, 2004When grown in a medium containing heat-stable potato tuber proteins, the oomycete Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary produces a set of exoproteinases active at neutral and mildly basic pH values. These extracellular proteinases have been shown by SDS-PAGE with the presence of gelatin to include at least six components differing in molecular weight.

Lactate Dehydrogenases in Oomycetes
Mycologia, 1972Lactate dehydrogenases [D(-)-lactate: NAD oxidoreductase, E.C. 1.1.1.28] have recently been detected in a number of lower fungi particularly among the Oomycetes (Gleason and Price, 1969; Warren and Mullins, 1969; LeJohn, 1971) and the Chytridiomycetes (Gleason and Price, 1969; LeJohn, 1971).

Recent advances in oomycete genomics
2020The oomycetes are a class of ubiquitous, filamentous microorganisms that include some of the biggest threats to global food security and natural ecosystems. Within the oomycete class are highly diverse species that infect a broad range of animals and plants. Some of the most destructive plant pathogens are oomycetes, such as Phytophthora infestans, the

Glucans of Oomycete Cell Walls
Science, 1967The cell walls of selected oomycetous fungi are composed primarily of glucans, and cellulose constitutes a relatively small proportion of the total glucan. The noncellulosic constituents consist of acid-soluble glucan or glucans and insoluble glucan or glucans. These noncellulosic glucan fractions contain β-(1→3) glucosidic linkages and apparently β-(1→
