The bZIP transcription factor UvbZIP6 mediates fungal growth, stress response, and false smut formation in Ustilaginoidea virens

Phytopathology Research, 2022
Rice false smut, caused by Ustilaginoidea virens, is one of the most destructive diseases in major world rice-producing regions. Basic leucine zipper (bZIP) proteins, which belong to an evolutionarily conserved transcription factor family and play ...

The Ras GTPase-activating protein UvGap1 orchestrates conidiogenesis and pathogenesis in the rice false smut fungus Ustilaginoidea virens. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol
Graphical abstract text UvGap1, functioning as a Ras GTPase‐activating protein, collaborates with UvRasGef to regulate Ras activity in response to external stimuli, thereby influencing the conidial morphology and pathogenicity of Ustilaginoidea virens.

The Adaptor Protein UvSte50 Governs Fungal Pathogenicity of Ustilaginoidea virens via the MAPK Signaling Pathway

Journal of Fungi, 2022
The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways regulate diverse cellular processes and have been partially characterized in the rice false smut fungus Ustilaginoidea virens.

Lessons Learned from the Grouping of Chemicals to Assess Risks to Human Health

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Volume 62, Issue 22, May 22, 2023., 2023
Grouping chemicals for risk assessment can consider the similarity of their intrinsic properties (e.g. structure), extrinsic properties, (e.g. persistence), and toxicological properties (e.g. genotoxicity). Based on the lessons learned on several substance classes, we derive principles of grouping, and differentiate between the prioritization of ...

Behavioral and anatomical evidence for electroreception in the bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 305, Issue 3, Page 592-608, March 2022., 2022
Abstract In the order of cetacean, the ability to detect bioelectric fields has, up to now, only been demonstrated in the Guiana dolphin (Sotalia guianensis) and is suggested to facilitate benthic feeding. As this foraging strategy has also been reported for bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus), we studied electroreception in this species by ...

Higher relative humidity and more moderate temperatures increase the severity of rice false smut disease in the rice–crayfish coculture system

Food and Energy Security, Volume 11, Issue 1, February 2022., 2022
Rice false smut in rice–crayfish coculture (RC) was much more serious than the disease in rice monoculture (RM) among most rice varieties. Some varieties displayed resistance to rice false smut in RM, but were susceptible in RC, suggesting that the RC system is a better model than RM for evaluation of the resistance of rice varieties to false smut.

Development of Generic Immuno-Magnetic Bead-Based Enzyme-Linked Immunoassay for Ustiloxins in Rice Coupled with Enrichment

Toxins, 2021
Ustiloxins are a group of mycotoxins produced by rice false smut pathogen. Previous studies have shown that the false smut balls contain six types of ustiloxins, and these toxins are toxic to living organisms.

UvHOS3-mediated histone deacetylation is essential for virulence and negatively regulates ustilaginoidin biosynthesis in Ustilaginoidea virens. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol
UvHOS3 in Ustilaginoidea virens controls histone deacetylation at H3K9, H3K18, H3K27 and H4K8 and positively regulates fungal growth and pathogenicity, but negatively modulates mycotoxin biosynthesis. Abstract Ustilaginoidea virens is the causal agent of rice false smut, which has recently become one of the most important rice diseases worldwide ...
