Endogenous RALF peptide function is required for powdery mildew host colonization

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Model of RALF‐FER‐dependent effects on powdery mildew sporulation. Summary The receptor kinase FERONIA (FER) is a susceptibility factor for biotrophic powdery mildew fungal pathogens in Arabidopsis thaliana, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. FER is required for the perception of endogenous RAPID ALKALINIZATION FACTOR (RALF)

Insights into the maintenance and consequences of asexual reproduction in rotifera [PDF]

, 2013
Despite much theoretical work, the evolution and maintenance of sexual reproduction in light of its apparent costs is not understood. Generally lacking are empirical data to test the proposed hypotheses. Rotifera, aquatic metazoans, are ideally suited to

Long‐term surveillance reveals hybridization by nuclear reassortment and intercontinental spread as major evolutionary drivers in wheat yellow rust

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Documented incursions of Puccinia striiformis 2009–2023 based on sequential resampling of MLGs/pathogen races on different continents. Summary Evolutionary forces affecting crop pathogens, including hybridization and long‐distance dispersal (LDD), may have strong implications for food security and sustainable plant disease control at global scales ...

Asexual reproduction for improved livestock breeding

Trends in Biotechnology
As natural environments deteriorate, genetic improvements to agricultural animals will be required to ensure global food security. Improving livestock production by introducing asexual reproduction (AR) into mainstream animal husbandry can help meet the challenge, but its advantages must be accompanied by social, commercial, and governmental acceptance.

Accessory regions and horizontal gene transfer shape the evolution of clonal Colletotrichum nymphaeae infecting strawberry

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Genetic diversity of strawberry‐infecting Colletotrichum isolates. Summary Rapid adaptation in fungal plant pathogens is often attributed to sexual recombination, yet many important pathogens are largely clonal. We investigated how genetic and phenotypic diversity arises in the predominantly asexual fungus Colletotrichum nymphaeae, the main cause of ...

The molecular regulation of axillary bud fate determination and outgrowth into branch crown in strawberry involves BRC1

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Proposed regulatory model for the axillary bud (AXB) fate determination of outgrowth into stolon and branch crown (BC) in strawberry. Summary In strawberry, the axillary bud (AXB) can produce either an elongated stem called stolon giving a daughter‐plant (asexual reproduction) or an inflorescence‐bearing branch crown (BC; sexual reproduction).

Global population structures and demographic history of Suillus luteus, a pine co‐introduced ectomycorrhizal fungus associated with exotic forestry and invasion

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Global phylogenomic tree and phylogenetic network of Suillus luteus and its closely related species. Summary Human colonization since the 19th century has resulted in the global spread of pines beyond their original northern boreal distribution. Although the introduction history of pines is documented through historical records, little is known about ...

A Meta‐Analysis Reveals That the Protective Role of Silicon in Grasses Against Fungal Pathogens Depends on Infection Mechanism

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogen infection drives plant community structure and constrains global agricultural productivity. Silicon (Si) improves resistance to abiotic and herbivory stress, particularly in grasses, but relatively little attention has addressed Si‐mediated resistance to pathogens, nor has it tested how this varies according to the type of plant and ...
