Dual RNA-seq analysis reveals differences in defensive lncRNA expression in Pinus spp. with varying susceptibility to Fusarium circinatum [PDF]
Background Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging regulators of plant immunity, but their roles in conifer-pathogen interactions remain largely unexplored. We applied a dual RNA-seq approach to resistant Pinus pinea and susceptible P.

Occurrence of fungi, with emphasis on Diplodia pinea, in pine seeds from forest nurseries of Turkey
Diplodia sapinea severely damages conifers and significantly reduces seed production and germination when cones are infected with the pathogen. In this study we aimed to determine the presence of D. sapinea and other fungi on seed of pines.
