Transient transformation of Podosphaera xanthii by electroporation of conidia. [PDF]
Powdery mildew diseases are a major phytosanitary issue causing important yield and economic losses in agronomic, horticultural and ornamental crops. Powdery mildew fungi are obligate biotrophic parasites unable to grow on culture media, a fact that has significantly limited their genetic manipulation.

Transcriptome sequence resource for the cucurbit powdery mildew pathogen Podosphaera xanthii. [PDF]
AbstractPodosphaera xanthiiis the main causal agent of cucurbit powdery mildew in Southern Italy. Illumina sequencing of mRNA from twoP. xanthiiisolates of opposite mating types (MAT1-1andMAT1-2) and their sexual cross was used to obtain a detailedde novoTrinity-based assembly of the transcriptome of the fungus.

CmSGT1, Transcriptionally Regulated by CmWRKY21 and CmWRKY31, Improves Powdery Mildew Resistance in Cucurbita moschata [PDF]
Powdery mildew (PM), mainly caused by Podosphaera xanthii, is a severe destructive disease that threatens the production of cucurbit crops globally. Heterologous transformation has shown that the CmSGT1 gene (suppressor of the G2 allele of skp1) improved

Identification of Gene Responsible for Conferring Resistance against Race KN2 of Podosphaera xanthii in Melon. [PDF]
Powdery mildew caused by Podosphaera xanthii is a serious fungal disease which causes severe damage to melon production. Unlike with chemical fungicides, managing this disease with resistance varieties is cost effective and ecofriendly. But, the occurrence of new races and a breakdown of the existing resistance genes poses a great threat.

The powdery mildew fungus Podosphaera fusca (synonym Podosphaera xanthii ), a constant threat to cucurbits [PDF]
SUMMARY Numerous vegetable crops are susceptible to powdery mildew, but cucurbits are arguably the group most severely affected. Podosphaera fusca (synonym Podosphaera xanthii ) is the main causal agent of cucurbit powdery mildew and ...

Fabaceous and Cucurbitaceous Hosts Are Infected With Distinct Populations of the Powdery Mildew Species Podosphaera xanthii [PDF]
Cross inoculations revealed clear differences in the host range of two Podosphaera xanthii populations infecting fabaceous and cucurbitaceous species. ABSTRACT Two species of powdery mildew, Podosphaera xanthii and Erysiphe vignae, cause disease in mungbean (Vigna radiata) in Australia. P.

Brazilian melon landraces resistant to Podosphaera xanthii are unique germplasm resources [PDF]
Podosphaera xanthii is the most important causal agent of powdery mildew in melon, a crop ranked within the most economically important species worldwide. The best strategy to face this fungus disease, which causes important production losses, is the development of genetically resistant cultivars.
