Unfolding Plant Defence: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signalling at the Plant‐Pathogen Interface

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, a conserved proteostasis network, has emerged as a central hub that reprograms plant immunity during pathogen attack. This review synthesises how plants harness ER‐stress signalling to mount multilayered defences and how pathogens have evolved counterstrategies to subvert these pathways.

Experimental control strategies reducing the fungicide input at a practical scale

, 2010
Phytophthora infestans is the most devastating disease in potato cultivation. Chemical control is necessary to ensure a healthy crop. At the same time Dutch governmental policy asks for a reduction of the environmental impact of potato late blight ...

Identification of Genetic Loci Conveying Resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris Race 0 in Chickpea

Plant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a legume that is widely consumed around the world due to its nutritional content. Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris is a serious, destructive pathogen that causes fusarium wilt disease and affects chickpea production.

Correlation Between Transcript Abundance of the RB Gene and the Level of the RB-Mediated Late Blight Resistance in Potato

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2009
Numerous disease-resistance genes have been cloned and characterized in various plant species. Only a few of these reported genes were transcriptionally induced or had enhanced transcription upon pathogen infection.

New sources of resistance to potato late blight disease in Peru. Project profile.

, 2020
Late blight disease in potato is possibly the most devastating crop disease in history. This project seeks to identify new sources of resistance in landraces and wild relatives, which could be used in potato breeding programs around the world to mitigate

A matter of where and when - the appearance of Late Blight of potato in Australia [PDF]

Late Blight, also called Irish blight and brown rot, devastated potato crops in Ireland and countries in Europe in the 1840s, and led to famines, deaths, and the emigration of tens of thousands of poor farmworkers.

Plant and soil biodiversity reveals past and potential future states of naturally regenerating and planted native forests

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Forest restoration can be achieved by promoting natural regeneration or planting tree seedlings, but the relative benefits of these widely used approaches are questioned. Soil communities may influence restoration outcomes but are usually ignored by monitoring schemes.

Animal Segregation: The Biopolitics of Concentrated Pig Farming

Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the possibility to think through the concept of animal segregation to understand the more‐than‐human geographies of livestock animals. By redirecting the analytical tools for studying the spatial separation of humans to the segregation of animals, this paper contributes to understanding the geographical processes of ...
