Deciphering the molecular basis of Podosphaera xanthii - cucurbits interaction [PDF]
Los cambios en fotosíntesis parecen venir mediados por la lucha en la obtención/limitación de nutrientes durante la infección de P. xanthii, mientras que los cambios en el metabolismo secundario se basan en el bloqueo de ciertas rutas metabólicas relacionadas directamente con las defensas de la planta.

Phospholipid production and signaling by a plant defense inducer against Podosphaera xanthii is genotype-dependent. [PDF]
Abstract Biotrophic phytopathogenic fungi such as Podosphaera xanthii have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to adapt to various environments causing powdery mildews leading to substantial yield losses. Today, due to known adverse effects of pesticides, development of alternative control means is crucial and can be achieved by combining ...

Extreme-phenotype genome-wide association study (XP-GWAS) of powdery mildew race 2 W tolerance in the USDA Citrullus germplasm collection [PDF]
Powdery mildew outbreaks, caused by Podosphaera xanthii, cause reduced watermelon yields as the plants produce fewer and smaller fruits due to premature leaf senescence. The reduced leaf canopy can decrease fruit quality due to sun scalding.
