Modes of Action of Microbially-Produced Phytotoxins

Toxins, 2011
Some of the most potent phytotoxins are synthesized by microbes. A few of these share molecular target sites with some synthetic herbicides, but many microbial toxins have unique target sites with potential for exploitation by the herbicide industry ...

Molecular analysis of the early interaction between the grapevine flower and Botrytis cinerea reveals that prompt activation of specific host pathways leads to fungus quiescence [PDF]

, 2017
Grape quality and yield can be impaired by bunch rot, caused by the necrotrophic fungus Botrytis cinerea. Infection often occurs at flowering, and the pathogen stays quiescent until fruit maturity.

Habituation to thaxtomin A increases resistance to common scab in 'Russet Burbank' potato.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Common scab is a potato disease characterized by the formation of scab-like lesions on the surface of potato tubers. The actinobacterium Streptomyces scabiei is the main causal agent of common scab.

Phytotoxicity and Field Efficacy of Exserohilum Longirostra Jc/min the Control of Barnyardgrass Ecotypes (Echinochloa Crus-galli Var. Crus-galli(l.) Beauv) [PDF]

, 2005
Five selected ecotypes of bamyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli var. crus-gatti) from several rice growing areas in Malaysia and Indonesia were tested for their susceptibility to the potential bioherbicide (Exserohilum longirostratum).

How Microbes Twist Jasmonate Signaling around Their Little Fingers

Plants, 2016
Plant immunity relies on a complex network of hormone signaling pathways in which jasmonic acid (JA) plays a central role. Successful microbial pathogens or symbionts have developed strategies to manipulate plant hormone signaling pathways to cause ...

Bacterial pathogenesis of plants: Future challenges from a microbial perspective [PDF]

, 2016
Plant infection is a complicated process. Upon encountering a plant, pathogenic microorganisms must first adapt to life on the epiphytic surface, and survive long enough to initiate an infection.

The role of bacteria in pine wilt disease: insights from microbiome analysis. [PDF]

, 2018
Pine Wilt Disease (PWD) has a significant impact on Eurasia pine forests. The microbiome of the nematode (the primary cause of the disease), its insect vector, and the host tree may be relevant for the disease mechanism.
