Revised Taxonomy and Expanded Biodiversity of the Phytomyxea (Rhizaria, Endomyxa)
Abstract Phytomyxea (phytomyxids) is a group of obligate biotrophic pathogens belonging to the Rhizaria. Some phytomyxids are well studied and include known plant pathogens such as Plasmodiophora brassicae, the causal agent of clubroot disease. Despite this economic importance, the taxonomy and biodiversity of this group are largely cryptic, with many ...

Abstract The European Commission requested a pest categorisation of the non‐EU viruses and viroids of potato (hereafter referred to as viruses). As a first step, a systematic literature and database search was carried out to identify the viruses reported to naturally infect Solanum tuberosum and other tuber‐forming Solanum spp (hereafter referred to as

Pest categorisation of non‐EU viruses and viroids of potato
Abstract Following a request from the EU Commission, the Panel on Plant Health has addressed the pest categorisation of those viruses and viroids (hereafter referred to as viruses) of Solanum tuberosum and other tuber‐forming Solanum spp. (hereafter referred to as potato) which are considered to be either non‐EU or of undetermined standing based on a ...

Detection of RNA viruses in potato seed-tubers from northern Antioquia (Colombia)
The most important viruses infecting potato in Colombia are PVY, PLRV, PVS, PYVV, PVV, PVX, PMTV, and PVB. Unfortunately, recent investigations on the health status of uncertified and certified seed-tubers of Solanum tuberosum cv.

Potato mop-top virus (PMTV) is a significant pathogen causing potato “spraing” disease worldwide. The PMTV 8K protein functions as a weak viral suppressor of RNA silencing (VSR), has viroporin activity, and plays a role in pathogenicity by promoting ...

Unusual Features of Pomoviral RNA Movement
Potato mop-top pomovirus (PMTV) is one of a few viruses that can move systemically in plants in the absence of the coat protein (CP). Pomoviruses encode the triple gene block genetic module of movement proteins (TGB 1, 2 & 3) and recent research ...

Recent Advances in Biology, Epidemiology and Host Resistance to Potato Powdery Scab
This review highlights recent advances in understanding powdery scab and potato resistance, providing new perspectives for developing durable and integrated strategies to manage the disease. ABSTRACT Powdery scab of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) is caused by the soil‐borne protist Spongospora subterranea f. sp. subterranea (Sss).
