Using hierarchical clustering of secreted protein families to classify and rank candidate effectors of rust fungi. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Rust fungi are obligate biotrophic pathogens that cause considerable damage on crop plants. Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, the causal agent of wheat stem rust, and Melampsora larici-populina, the poplar leaf rust pathogen, have strong deleterious ...

Genome size analyses of Pucciniales reveal the largest fungal genomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Rust fungi (Basidiomycota, Pucciniales) are biotrophic plant pathogens which exhibit diverse complexities in their life cycles and host ranges. The completion of genome sequencing of a few rust fungi has revealed the occurrence of large genomes ...

On the current status of Phakopsora pachyrhizi genome sequencing

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Recent advances in the field of sequencing technologies and bioinformatics allow a more rapid access to genomes of non-model organisms at sinking costs. Accordingly, draft genomes of several economically important cereal rust fungi have been released in ...

Revealing the high variability on nonconserved core and mobile elements of Austropuccinia psidii and other rust mitochondrial genomes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Mitochondrial genomes are highly conserved in many fungal groups, and they can help characterize the phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary biology of plant pathogenic fungi.

Gapless Genome Assembly of Puccinia triticina Provides Insights into Chromosome Evolution in Pucciniales

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Chromosome evolution drives species evolution, speciation, and adaptive radiation. Accurate genome assembly is crucial to understanding chromosome evolution of species, such as dikaryotic fungi. Rust fungi (Pucciniales) in dikaryons represent the largest

The most frequent 'rusts' on trees and shrubs in Serbia [PDF]

open access: yesGlasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta: Univerzitet u Beogradu, 2003
This paper describes 15 species of fungi in the order Uredinales, causing the diseases known as "rusts". These fungi develop as obligate parasites and cause very dangerous diseases on cultivated plants.

New Findings on Rust Fungi from Iran [PDF]

open access: yesتاکسونومی و بیوسیستماتیک, 2020
Five new species and a new variety of rust fungi (Pucciniales) are described from Iran: Uromyces matinii on Gagea dubia, Uromyces arasbaranensis on Silene italica, Uromyces taleshensis on Colchicum sp., Uromyces kaviriae on Kaviria gossypina, Uromyces ...

Characterization of Lr46, a gene conferring partial resistance to wheat leaf rust [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Components of resistance conferred by the Lr46 gene, reported as causing "slow rusting" resistance to leaf rust in wheat, were studied and compared with the effects of Lr34 and genes for quantitative resistance in cv. Akabozu. Lr34 is a gene that confers

Duplications and losses in gene families of rust pathogens highlight putative effectors

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Rust fungi are a group of fungal pathogens that cause some of the world’s most destructive diseases of trees and crops. A shared characteristic among rust fungi is obligate biotrophy, the inability to complete a lifecycle without a host.

Host jumps shaped the diversity of extant rust fungi (Pucciniales) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The aim of this study was to determine the evolutionary time line for rust fungi and date key speciation events using a molecular clock. Evidence is provided that supports a contemporary view for a recent origin of rust fungi, with a common ancestor on
