Sclerotinia rot of Zephyranthes candida caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Sclerotinia minor

Frontiers in Microbiology
Sclerotinia rot is a serious disease that occurs on Zephyranthes candida. A thorough understanding of the pathogenic fungal species and understanding the biological characteristics are important for controlling sclerotinia. Fungal strains were isolated from the diseased leaves of Z. candida through tissue isolation.

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum: When “to be or not to be” a pathogen? [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2005
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is unusual among necrotrophic pathogens in its requirement for senescent tissues to establish an infection and to complete the life cycle. A model for the infection process has emerged whereby the pathogenic phase is bounded by saprophytic phases; the distinction being that the dead tissues in the latter are generated by the ...

SsCak1 Regulates Growth and Pathogenicity in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a devastating fungal pathogen that causes severe crop losses worldwide. It is of vital importance to understand its pathogenic mechanism for disease control. Through a forward genetic screen combined with next-generation sequencing, a putative protein kinase, SsCak1, was found to be involved in the growth and pathogenicity ...

Biology and biocontrol of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary in oilseed Brassicas

, 2016
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary is a necrotrophic plant pathogen infecting over 500 host species including oilseed Brassicas. The fungus forms sclerotia which are the asexual resting structures that can survive in the soil for several years and ...

Coniferyl aldehyde from the phenylpropanoid pathway targets pyruvate kinase in Dactylobotrys graminicola to confer sheath rot resistance in hulless barley

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Hulless barley resists the newly identified sheath rot disease caused by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Dactylobotrys graminicola by releasing coniferyl aldehyde, a natural compound that disrupts energy production in the fungus. ABSTRACT Dactylobotrys graminicola (Dgr), a necrotrophic fungal pathogen, has recently been identified as the causative ...

Interactional Endocytosis and Transmembrane Transport Promote Cellular Internalization of Nano‐Delivered RNA Drugs for Efficient Control of Crop Diseases

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea is a widespread plant pathogenic ascomycete that causes grey mould in over 1400 species and impacts global crop yields. Double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA)‐induced gene silencing is a promising technology for pest control, but efficient delivery remains a major challenge.

MYB Factors: Hubs of Plant Stress and Hormone Crosstalk

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MYB transcription factors function as main regulatory hubs that integrate environmental signals with multi‐hormonal pathways to synchronize plant growth, metabolism and stress responses. This review delineates the regulatory roles of MYB in the signalling pathway of salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, ethylene and abscisic acid signalling.

SsNEP2 Contributes to the Virulence of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum

Pathogens, 2022
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a notorious soilborne fungal pathogen that causes serious economic losses globally. The necrosis and ethylene-inducible peptide 1 (NEP1)-like proteins (NLPs) were previously shown to play an important role in pathogenicity in fungal and oomycete pathogens. Here, we generated S.

Putative Transcriptional Regulation of HaWRKY33-AOA251SVV7 Complex-Mediated Sunflower Head Rot by Transcriptomics and Proteomics

Plants
HaWRKY33 is induced by salicylic acid and participates in the disease resistance signaling pathway of sunflower rust disease; however, the transcriptional regulatory mechanism of this protein against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in sunflowers remains unclear.
