Potential mobile units drive the horizontal transfer of phytoplasma effector phyllogen genes [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Phytoplasmas are obligate intracellular plant pathogenic bacteria that can induce phyllody, which is a type of abnormal floral organ development. Phytoplasmas possess phyllogens, which are effector proteins that cause phyllody in plants.

Comparative DNA Methylome of Phytoplasma Associated Retrograde Metamorphosis in Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) [PDF]

Biology, 2022
Phytoplasma-associated diseases such as phyllody and little leaf are critical threats to sesame cultivation worldwide. The mechanism of the dramatic conversion of flowers to leafy structures leading to yield losses and the drastic reduction in leaf size ...

Detection, Identification and Molecular Characterization of the 16SrII-V Subgroup Phytoplasma Strain Associated with Pisum sativum and Parthenium hysterophorus L. [PDF]

Plants, 2023
Two unrelated plant species, green pea and parthenium weed, harboring typical phytoplasma symptoms, were discovered in Yunlin, Taiwan. Green pea (Pisum sativum.) and parthenium weed (Parthenium hysterophorus L.) are both herbaceous annual plants ...

Random mutagenesis-based screening of the interface of phyllogen, a bacterial phyllody-inducing effector, for interaction with plant MADS-box proteins [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
To understand protein function deeply, it is important to identify how it interacts physically with its target. Phyllogen is a phyllody-inducing effector that interacts with the K domain of plant MADS-box transcription factors (MTFs), which is followed ...

Comprehensive genomic and functional characterization of a phytoplasma associated with root retardation, early bolting, witches’-broom, and phyllody in daikon (Raphanus sativus L.) [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
Daikon (Raphanus sativus L. var. longipinnatus) is an economically important root crop and medicinal plant. In 2021, a previously unreported disease outbreak characterized by early bolting, witches’-broom, phyllody, virescence, and severe root growth ...

Field evaluation of sesame lines against phyllody

Electronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2017
In the integrated management of phyllody disease of sesame, host plant resistance plays an important role. Use of resistant genotype is one of the most viable options for the management of the sesame phyllody.

Current Research Trends and Prospects for Yield and Quality Improvement in Sesame, an Important Oilseed Crop [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Climate change is shifting agricultural production, which could impact the economic and cultural contexts of the oilseed industry, including sesame. Environmental threats (biotic and abiotic stresses) affect sesame production and thus yield (especially ...
