Colorectal basidiobolomycosis in a dog

Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 2091-2095, September 2020., 2020
Abstract A 7‐year‐old castrated male French Bulldog was examined for chronic large intestinal enteropathy. A colonic mass and thickened rectal mucosa were identified, and histopathologic examination of endoscopic biopsy specimens disclosed eosinophilic proctitis with large (5‐20 μm), irregularly shaped, pauciseptate hyphae that were Gomori methenamine ...

A proper PiCAT2 level is critical for sporulation, sporangium function, and pathogenicity of Phytophthora infestans

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 21, Issue 4, Page 460-474, April 2020., 2020
PiCAT2 is required for P. infestans asexual reproduction, abiotic stress tolerance, and pathogenicity; reducing or elevating catalase activity suppresses sporangia formation, germination, and appressoria formation. Abstract Catalase is present in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms and is important for the protective effects of the antioxidant system ...
