Quantitative analysis of the tomato nuclear proteome during Phytophthora capsici infection unveils regulators of immunity [PDF]

New Phytologist, Volume 215, Issue 1, Page 309-322, July 2017., 2017
Summary Plant–pathogen interactions are complex associations driven by the interplay of host and microbe‐encoded factors. With secreted pathogen proteins (effectors) and immune signalling components found in the plant nucleus, this compartment is a battleground where susceptibility is specified.

Phagocytosis underpins the biotrophic lifestyle of intracellular parasites in the class Phytomyxea (Rhizaria). [PDF]

New Phytol, 2023
Summary Phytomyxea are intracellular biotrophic parasites infecting plants and stramenopiles, including the agriculturally impactful Plasmodiophora brassicae and the brown seaweed pathogen Maullinia ectocarpii. They belong to the clade Rhizaria, where phagotrophy is the main mode of nutrition.

A CRISPR/Cas9-mediated in situ complementation method for Phytophthora sojae mutants. [PDF]

Mol Plant Pathol, 2021
A regulatory B‐subunit of protein phosphatase 2A was used to demonstrate an in situ complementation method of a mutated gene in Phytophthora sojae, verifying its roles in hyphal growth, soybean infection, and sporangia production. Abstract Phytophthora sojae is an important model species for oomycete functional genomics research.

A Myb transcription factor of Phytophthora sojae, regulated by MAP kinase PsSAK1, is required for zoospore development. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2012
PsSAK1, a mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase from Phytophthora sojae, plays an important role in host infection and zoospore viability. However, the downstream mechanism of PsSAK1 remains unclear.

Eelgrass (Zostera spp.) associated phytomyxids are host‐specific congeneric parasites and predominant eukaryotes in the eelgrass rhizosphere on a global scale

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 8, Page 1522-1537, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Together with increasing environmental and anthropogenic pressures, pathogenic diseases are one of the important factors contributing to the ongoing decline of seagrass meadows worldwide; yet the diversity and ecology of the microorganisms acknowledged as seagrass parasites remain critically understudied.

Dependence on clade II bHLH transcription factors for nursing of haploid products by tapetal‐like cells is conserved between moss sporangia and angiosperm anthers

New Phytologist, Volume 235, Issue 2, Page 718-731, July 2022., 2022
Summary Clade II basic helix–loop–helix transcription factors (bHLH TFs) are essential for pollen production and tapetal nursing functions in angiosperm anthers. As pollen has been suggested to be related to bryophyte spores by descent, we characterized two Physcomitrium (Physcomitrella) patens clade II bHLH TFs (PpbHLH092 and PpbHLH098), to test if ...

Evidence for a synergistic effect of post‐translational modifications and genomic composition of eEF‐1α on the adaptation of Phytophthora infestans

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 10, Page 5484-5496, May 2021., 2021
We analyzed nucleotide characteristics of eukaryotic translation elongation factor‐1α (eEF‐lα) gene from 165 Phytophthora infestans isolates and the physical and chemical properties of its derived proteins. Our results indicate that post‐translation modifications may function synergistically with nucleotide codes to regulate the adaptive landscape of ...

The PDZ domain of the SpoIVB serine peptidase facilitates multiple functions [PDF]

, 2001
During spore formation in Bacillus subtilis, the SpoIVB protein is a critical component of the sigma (K) regulatory checkpoint. SpoIVB has been shown to be a serine peptidase that is synthesized in the spore chamber and which self-cleaves, releasing ...

A Cryptic Alternative for the Evolution of Hyphae

BioEssays, Volume 42, Issue 6, June 2020., 2020
The current view that hyphae evolved about 400 million years ago when plants and fungi colonized land is challenged. Recent recognition of a deep biosphere fossil record provides an alternative view on hyphae: one where the fundamental functions of hyphae developed in ancient cryptic habitats and already where adapted for a terrestrial life‐style when ...
