Karyotype Variability in Plant-Pathogenic Fungi
Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2017Recent advances in genetic and molecular technologies gradually paved the way for the transition from traditional fungal karyotyping to more comprehensive chromosome biology studies. Extensive chromosomal polymorphisms largely resulting from chromosomal rearrangements (CRs) are widely documented in fungal genomes.

Saponin Detoxification by Plant Pathogenic Fungi
1996Saponins are common plant secondary metabolites (glycosylated triterpenoid or steroid molecules) which are found in a wide range of dicotyledonous plant species, and also in some monocots1–5. Many saponins have been demonstrated to have potent antifungal activities and often occur in healthy plants at levels which are anticipated to be toxic to saponin-

Plants are subject to disease. Some diseases result from disturbed metabolism produced, for example, by a deficiency of essential mineral elements in the soil. In most however a virus or a bacterium or a fungus is the pathogen. Fungi, rather than bacteria, are the most widespread and destructive parasites of plants. This is the reverse of the situation

Plant Pathogenic Fungi in Agroecosystems
1997Epidemics induced by plant pathogenic fungi have had dramatic impacts on human populations worldwide. The earliest records of epidemics appeared well before 500 b.c., but it was not until the mid-19th century that fungi were recognized as disease-causing agents (Whetzel 1918; Ainsworth 1981).

Genetics of Plant Pathogenic Fungi
1998Plant pathogenic fungi still represent a severe threat to the agricultural industry, especially since the chemical control of these organisms has become more complex. Due to environmental protection legislation, the costs for tests of new fungicides have been multiplied — whereas fungi rapidly develop resistance against the established chemicals.

Microbodies in Plant Pathogenic Fungi
Annual Review of Phytopathology, 1977The importance of microbodies in the physiology of plant-pathogenic fungi is only now becoming apparent. Though microbodies were first described in 1954 from electron micrographs of mouse kidney cells (62), their presence in fungi was not recognized until 1966 (86), and since then it has become evident that these organelles are ubiquitous in fungi (75).

Transformation of plant pathogenic fungi
1989The ability to introduce exogenous DNA into living cells and demonstrate its expression is a requirement for many research programs whose goals include determining the function of specific genes. Plant pathogenic fungi are highly appropriate subjects for transformation experiments, because a number of fungal genes have been identified whose products ...

Plant Pathogenic Fungi and Oomycetes
2014Fungi and Oomycetes are notorious plant pathogens and use similar strategies to infect plants. The majority of plants, however, is not infected by pathogens as they recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by pattern recognition receptors that mediate PAMP-triggered immunity (PTI) , a basal defense response effective against potential ...

Gene transformation in plant pathogenic fungi
1992Abstract Gene transformation of filamentous fungi is a relatively new but rapidly developing area (1). The first report of DNA-mediated transformation of a filamentous fungus was with Neurospora crassa (2) and was soon followed by the demonstration of gene transfer in another ascomycete, Aspergillus nidulans (3, 4).
