Effector proteins of rust fungi [PDF]
Rust fungi include many species that are devastating crop pathogens. To develop resistant plants, a better understanding of rust virulence factors, or effector proteins, is needed.

Amino acid uptake in rust fungi [PDF]
The plant pathogenic rust fungi colonize leaf tissue and feed off their host plants without killing them. Certain economically important species of different genera such as Melampsora, Phakopsora, Puccinia or Uromyces are extensively studied for ...

Sexual reproduction is the null hypothesis for life cycles of rust fungi. [PDF]
Sexual reproduction, mutation, and reassortment of nuclei increase genotypic diversity in rust fungi. Sexual reproduction is inherent to rust fungi, coupled with their coevolved plant hosts in native pathosystems.

Convergence Analysis of Rust Fungi and Anther Smuts Reveals Their Common Molecular Adaptation to a Phytoparasitic Lifestyle [PDF]
Convergent evolution between distantly related taxa often mirrors adaptation to similar environments. Rust fungi and anther smuts, which belong to different classes in Pucciniomycotina, have independently evolved a phytoparasitic lifestyle, representing ...

A decade after the first Pucciniales genomes: A bibliometric snapshot of (post) genomics studies in three model rust fungi [PDF]
Pucciniales (rust fungi) are one of the largest fungal order of plant pathogens. They collectively infect key crops such as wheat and soybean, and threaten global food security.

Taxonomy and Phylogeny of Rust Fungi on Hamamelidaceae. [PDF]
Hamamelidaceae is composed of woody plant taxa of important economic value; however, reports on diseases affecting these plants are rare. Three kinds of rusts were studied, of which the first one is characterized by catenulate spores in peridiate columnar sori onSycopsis sinensis, the second one produces two-celled pedicellate teliospores in pulvinate ...

Rust Fungi on Medicinal Plants in Guizhou Province with Descriptions of Three New Species [PDF]
During the research on rust fungi in medicinal plants of Guizhou Province, China, a total of 9 rust fungal species were introduced, including 3 new species (Hamaspora rubi-alceifolii, Nyssopsora altissima, and Phragmidium cymosum), as well as 6 known ...

Genomic Patterns of Positive Selection at the Origin of Rust Fungi. [PDF]
Understanding the origin and evolution of pathogenicity and biotrophic life-style of rust fungi has remained a conundrum for decades. Research on the molecular mechanisms responsible for rust fungi evolution has been hampered by their biotrophic life ...

Biases in the metabarcoding of plant pathogens using rust fungi as a model system [PDF]
Plant pathogens such as rust fungi (Pucciniales) are of global economic and ecological importance. This means there is a critical need to reliably and cost‐effectively detect, identify, and monitor these fungi at large scales.
