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 ...

A Cryptic Alternative for the Evolution of Hyphae
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 ...

PiCAT2 is required for P. infestans asexual reproduction, abiotic stress tolerance, and pathogenicity; reducing or elevating catalase activity suppresses sporangia formation, germination, and appressoria formation. Abstract Catalase is present in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms and is important for the protective effects of the antioxidant system ...

Pepper (Piper nigrum L.) serves as a source of income to smallholder spice farmers in Morogoro district of Tanzania. Recently, spike shedding and stem wilting of pepper plants were reported to cause about 30% yield loss of the crop. This study was undertaken to identify the causal agent(s) of the problems.

This review highlights how Phytophthora sojae utilizes unconventional lineage‐specific signaling networks, including unique G protein‐coupled receptor fusions, expanded kinases, and rapidly evolving effectors, to infect soybeans. Understanding these divergent molecular paradigms reveals critical vulnerabilities in this destructive pathogen, offering ...

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.

A survey of phytomyxid parasites in seagrasses of the genus Halophila reveals previously unrecognised diversity and a widespread presence of Marinomyxa within Halophila meadows, supporting a tight co‐evolutionary relationship between the two genera. ABSTRACT Marinomyxa is a genus of obligate intracellular parasitic protists known to infect tropical ...

N‐Glycosylation—The Behind‐the‐Scenes ‘Manipulative Hand’ of Plant Pathogen Invasiveness
The potential pathogenic mechanisms related to growth and development, infection structures, and the secretion of effector proteins influenced by N‐glycosylation modifications are described in detail. ABSTRACT Plant pathogens infect hosts through sophisticated molecular strategies, with N‐glycosylation serving as a critical post‐translational ...

Saprolegniosis in aquaculture and how to control it?
This review combines the current knowledge regarding the predisposing factors to Saprolegnia infections and current methods to prevent and treat it, including those under further research. So far, many compounds have been tested and studied, but an effective, suitable and safe compound to treat saprolegniosis remains to be found.
