ABSTRACT Fungi are among the dominant causal agents of plant diseases. To colonize plants and cause disease, pathogenic fungi use diverse strategies. Some fungi kill their hosts and feed on dead material (necrotrophs), while others colonize the living tissue (biotrophs).

Phylogenetic congruence between subtropical trees and their associated fungi. [PDF]
Recent studies have detected phylogenetic signals in pathogen-host networks for both soil-borne and leaf-infecting fungi, suggesting that pathogenic fungi may track or coevolve with their preferred hosts.

Proteomics of Plant Pathogenic Fungi [PDF]
Plant pathogenic fungi cause important yield losses in crops. In order to develop efficient and environmental friendly crop protection strategies, molecular studies of the fungal biological cycle, virulence factors, and interaction with its host are necessary.

Autophagy vitalizes the pathogenicity of pathogenic fungi [PDF]
Plant pathogenic fungi utilize a series of complex infection structures, in particular the appressorium, to gain entry to and colonize plant tissue. As a consequence of the accumulation of huge quantities of glycerol in the cell the appressorium generates immense intracellular turgor pressure allowing the penetration peg of the appressorium to ...

Commercial biocontrol agents reveal contrasting comportments against two mycotoxigenic fungi in cereals: Fusarium Graminearum and Fusarium Verticillioides [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of commercialized biological control agents (BCAs) against two major mycotoxigenic fungi in cereals, Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium verticillioides, which are trichothecene and fumonisin producers ...

A review of the influence of root-associating fungi and root exudates on the success of invasive plants [PDF]
Plant-fungal interactions are essential for understanding the distribution and abundance of plants species. Recently, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) partners of non-indigenous invasive plants have been hypothesized to be a critical factor ...

Enzymes of Pathogenic Fungi [PDF]
SUMMARY: Submerged growth of four dermatophytes, Microspoum canis, M. gypseum, Trichophyton rubrum and T. mentagrophytes has been obtained by shaking during growth. The respiratory rate (μ1. O2 consumed/hr./mg. dry weight) of washed cells from 4-6-day cultures was between 7 and 12.
