Compost Teas Reduce Verticillium dahliae Growth In Vitro via Direct and Volatile Effects
Compost teas suppressed the growth of Verticillium dahliae, the organism that causes Verticillium wilt in potatoes when V. dahliae was cultured with growth media containing compost teas. V. dahliae was cultured both with and without direct contact to the compost tea, and both methods suppressed V. dahliae growth. Graphical Abstract created in Biorender

Abstract Leaf rust (LR) and stripe rust (YR), which are caused by Puccinia triticina and Puccinia striiformis, respectively, are among the most devastating wheat rusts worldwide. These diseases can be managed by using genetically resistant cultivars, an economical and environmentally safer alternative to fungicides. Over 100 and 80 Lr and Yr resistance

Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence
Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mycoheterotrophy, whereby plants acquire both carbon and nutrients from a fungal partner, is an evolutionarily puzzling phenomenon. According to biological market models, mycoheterotrophs have nothing to offer and thus should be shunned as trading partners by ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract One of the most prevalent symbioses on Earth is that formed between the majority of land plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. Through these intimate associations, AM fungi transfer soil nutrients to their plant hosts in exchange for photosynthetically fixed ...

Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plants typically interact with multiple, co‐occurring symbionts, including arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi which can form networks, connecting neighbouring plants. A characteristic aspect of the mycorrhizal symbiosis is the bidirectional exchange of nutrients between ...

Leishmania — A Parasitized Parasite [PDF]
Leishmaniasis can be visceral and deadly or restricted to a cutaneous lesion. A particularly severe form of disease is caused by an unregulated inflammatory response. A recent study suggests that this response may be triggered by a virus that infects the Leishmania parasite.

Bacterial Parasitization of the Parasite
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1973To the Editor.— We read with interest the recent LETTER TO THE EDITOR by Chang (223:1510, 1973) suggesting that amoeba are capable of parasitizing pinworms. In recently completed studies at our hospital, we have found that the glycogen-laden integuments of schistosomes that were filtered from patients (Trans R Soc Trop Med Hyg, to be published) were ...

Parasites and Parasitic Diseases
2018Parasitism is a form of existence. Parasitism means “life of an organism (‘parasite’) at the expense of another organism (host)”. If the profit is on both sides, this is called symbiosis. The host may be damaged but not necessarily. Parasites are therefore mono- or multicellular organisms.
