The rhizosphere: a playground and battlefield for soilborne pathogens and beneficial microorganisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The rhizosphere is a hot spot of microbial interactions as exudates released by plant roots are a main food source for microorganisms and a driving force of their population density and activities.

Genome-Wide Analysis of Cyclophilin Proteins in 21 Oomycetes

open access: yesPathogens, 2019
Cyclophilins (CYPs), a highly-conserved family of proteins, belong to a subgroup of immunophilins. Ubiquitous in eukaryotes and prokaryotes, CYPs have peptidyl-prolyl cis−trans isomerase (PPIase) activity and have been implicated as virulence ...

Current ecological understanding of fungal-like pathogens of fish: what lies beneath? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Despite increasingly sophisticated microbiological techniques, and long after the first discovery of microbes, basic knowledge is still lacking to fully appreciate the ecological importance of microbial parasites in fish. This is likely due to the nature

Structure-Activity Relationship of Dialkoxychalcones to Combat Fish Pathogen Saprolegnia australis

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
To investigate the anti-Saprolegnia activities of chalconic compounds, nine dialkoxychalcones 2–10, along with their key building block 2′,4′-dihydroxychalcone 1, were evaluated for their potential oomycide activities against ...

Genome-Wide Increased Copy Number is Associated with Emergence of Dominant Clones of the Irish Potato Famine Pathogen Phytophthora infestans

open access: yesmBio, 2020
The plant pathogen that caused the Irish potato famine, Phytophthora infestans, continues to reemerge globally. These modern epidemics are caused by clonally reproducing lineages.

Strategies for administration of biosurfactants-producing pseudomonads in closed hydroponic systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Zoospore-producing oomycetes are major plant pathogens of particular concern in hydroponic systems. Compared with pesticides, biocontrol using antagonistic microorganisms is a sustainable approach to control oomycetes.

New highly aggressive pathotype 354 of Plasmopara halstedii in German sunflower fields

open access: yesPlant Protection Science, 2018
Downy mildew of sunflower is a recurrent threat for crop production and a permanent challenge for resistance breeding. Since 2016, a new pathotype of the oomycete Plasmopara halstedii has been found in fields of cutting sunflower in Southern Germany ...

Unraveling the senses of Phytophthora; leads to novel control strategies? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Oomycetes cause devastating diseases on plants and animals. They cause major yield losses in many crop plants and their control heavily depends on agrochemicals. This is certainly true for the potato late blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans.

Root rot and damping-off of Aleppo pine seedlings caused by Pythium spp. in Algerian forest nurseries

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2016
Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis Miller) is a common forest tree in the Mediterranean Region. Production of Aleppo pine seedlings is hindered by damping off and root rot diseases in cooler conditions of north-western Algeria, which significantly reduces the

Management of plant health risks associated with processing of plant-based wastes: A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The rise in international trade of plants and plant products has increased the risk of introduction and spread of plant pathogens and pests. In addition, new risks are arising from the implementation of more environmentally friendly methods of ...
