Phenology of rust fungi (Pucciniales) during mild winters – high temporal flexibility of spore generations

open access: yes
Rust fungi develop up to five spore generations that often infect host plants of two different families in one life cycle. We investigated the phenology of spore generations over winter by monitoring rust infections over ten years in urban, wild ...

ITSxRust: ITS Region extraction with partial‐chain recovery and structured diagnostics for long‐read amplicon sequencing

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 10, Page 2843-2853, October 2026.
Abstract Long‐read amplicon sequencing is now routine for fungal metabarcoding, and locating the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) subregions within reads has become a throughput bottleneck. Existing extractors were designed for shorter reads and for datasets in which near‐identical sequences are common, and neither assumption holds for Oxford Nanopore

Fruit‐Piercing Moth Serrodes partita (Fabricius) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) in Soft Citrus: Feeding Behaviour and Damage Patterns for Improved Management in the Eastern Cape, South Africa

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 64, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The fruit‐piercing moth, Serrodes partita (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), is a significant pest of soft citrus in South Africa. The adult moth pierces ripe and ripening fruit, leading to fruit rot. The damage is challenging to detect due to the delayed onset of symptoms. The study investigated the feeding preferences and damage patterns of S. partita

Lysin Motif Effectors Facilitate the Endophytic Colonization of Wheat by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum via Modulating Plant Immunity

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Two LysM effectors of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum are essential for the endophytic colonization of wheat. SsLysM6/7 inhibit chitin‐induced immune responses and undermine wheat immunity to promote fungal growth. ABSTRACT Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a necrotrophic fungus that causes severe plant diseases but can also colonize wheat as a symptomless ...

Combinatorial cis‐regulatory elements shape temporal effector expression in Ustilago maydis

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
We identified promoter motifs associated with infection phases in Ustilago maydis and analysed their positional distribution relative to transcription start sites and generated a synthetic minimal promoter that drives in‐plant gene expression. ABSTRACT Plant‐pathogenic fungi secrete small proteins, termed effectors, to reprogramme host metabolism and ...
