Blowin’ in the Wind: Wind Dispersal Ability of Phytopathogenic Fusarium in a Wind Tunnel Experiment
Atmosphere, 2021 Dispersal processes play an essential role in cereal diseases caused by phytopathogenic Fusarium. However, most empirical studies of Fusarium spore dispersal have focused on vertical transport by rain splash, while wind dispersal has been mostly ...

Does spore ultrastructure mirror different dispersal strategies in mosses? A study of seven iberian orthotrichum species. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Most mosses have xerochastic dispersal (i.e., they open their capsules when conditions are dry), which is thought to favor long-distance dispersal. However, there are several species that use a hygrochastic strategy: spores are dispersed when conditions ...

High‐speed video and plant ultrastructure define mechanisms of gametophyte dispersal
Applications in Plant Sciences, 2022 Dispersal of gametophytes is critical for land plant survivorship and reproduction. It defines potential colonization and geographical distribution as well as genetic mixing and evolution. C. T.

PhytoFrontiers, 2023 Rapid Ohia Death (ROD) is caused by two pathogens, Ceratocystis lukuohia and Ceratocystis huliohia. The established species-specific real-time PCR assays targeting the single-copy cerato-platanin gene require DNA from between 2 and 16 spores per reaction

DNA-based detection of grapevine trunk-disease pathogens from environmental spore samples
MethodsX, 2021 In California vineyards, spore dispersal of fungi that cause grapevine trunk diseases Botryosphaeria dieback and Eutypa dieback occurs with winter rains. Spores infect through pruning wounds made to the woody structure of the vine in winter.

Assessing long-distance atmospheric transport of soilborne plant pathogens
Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Pathogenic fungi are a leading cause of crop disease and primarily spread through microscopic, durable spores adapted differentially for both persistence and dispersal via soil, animals, water, and/or the atmosphere. Computational Earth system models and

Biofilm Dispersal for Spore Release in Bacillus subtilis [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2021 The dispersal of bacterial cells from a matured biofilm can be mediated either by active or passive mechanisms. In this issue of the Journal of Bacteriology , Nishikawa and Kobayashi demonstrate that the presence of calcium influences the dispersal of spores from the pellicle biofilm of Bacillus subtilis

Blastomycosis outbreak in Escabana, Michigan, United States of America, 2023.
Global Biosecurity, 2023 Blastomycosis is a fungal disease, that though endemic to the state of Michigan, has resulted in a large outbreak of potentially unusual scale and transmission.
