Functional Outlook of Penicillium digitatum PdMFS6 Transporter to Elucidate Its Role in Fungicide Resistance and Virulence [PDF]
A novel Penicillium digitatum MFS transporter, PdMFS6 (PDIP_42530), was recognized, and its function was studied to explain its relevance in the simultaneous development of resistance to different fungicide spectrums.

Fatal pneumonia caused by Penicillium digitatum: a case report [PDF]
Abstract Background Penicillium species are among the most common fungi present in the environment and are usually considered non-pathogenic to humans. However, in immunocompromised hosts they can be virulent pathogens and can cause death. Penicillium digitatum is a plant pathogen that commonly causes a

Functional and Pharmacological Analyses of the Role of Penicillium digitatum Proteases on Virulence. [PDF]
Penicillium digitatum is the major postharvest pathogen of citrus fruit under Mediterranean climate conditions. Previous results have shown that proteases is the largest enzyme family induced by P. digitatum during fruit infection. In the present work, we addressed the study of the role of P.

Characterization of two novel mycoviruses from Penicillium digitatum and the related fungicide resistance analysis [PDF]
Pathogenic fungi including Penicillium digitatum and Penicillium italicum are the main destructive pathogens in the citrus industry, causing great losses during postharvest process. To our knowledge, only one mycovirus from P. digitatum has been reported,

Efficient production and characterization of the novel and highly active antifungal protein AfpB from Penicillium digitatum [PDF]
Filamentous fungi encode distinct antifungal proteins (AFPs) that offer great potential to develop new antifungals. Fungi are considered immune to their own AFPs as occurs in Penicillium chrysogenum, the producer of the well-known PAF.

Penicillium digitatum, Penicillium italicum (Green Mold, Blue Mold) [PDF]
Green and blue molds, caused by the pathogens Penicillium digitatum and Penicillium italicum, respectively, are the most economically important postharvest diseases of citrus fruit in all production areas with low summer rainfall. Both fungi are strict wound pathogens that affect all citrus species and cultivars and can infect the fruit in the field ...

Genome sequence of the necrotrophic fungus
Background Penicillium digitatum is a fungal necrotroph causing a common citrus postharvest disease known as green mold. In order to gain insight into the genetic bases of its virulence mechanisms and its high degree of host-specificity, the genomes of ...
