Loss of Pathogenicity and Evidence of Horizontal Gene Transfer in Colletotrichum gloeosporioides From a Medicinal Plant. [PDF]

open access: yesMol Plant Pathol
A Colletotrichum gloeosporioides strain from Huperzia serrata lacks key pathogenicity genes CgDN3 and cap20 and has fewer pelB, pnl and pg genes. pksIII, for synthesis of huperzine A, was probably acquired by the host plant from the fungus. ABSTRACT Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is a major agricultural pathogen of crops that has also been identified ...

Advances in understanding the mechanism of resistance to anthracnose and induced defence response in tea plants

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 24, Issue 10, Page 1330-1346, October 2023., 2023
This review summarizes the causative agent of tea anthracnose, infection strategies and pathogenicity of C. gloeosporioides, host–pathogen interactions, plant resistance mechanisms, and induced defence against Colletotrichum. Abstract The tea plant (Camellia sinensis) is susceptible to anthracnose disease that causes considerable crop loss and affects ...

Plant sizes and shapes above and belowground and their interactions with climate

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 235, Issue 3, Page 1032-1056, August 2022., 2022
Summary Although the above and belowground sizes and shapes of plants strongly influence plant competition, community structure, and plant–environment interactions, plant sizes and shapes remain poorly characterized across climate regimes. We investigated relationships among shoot and root system size and climate.

Alteration of plant species mixtures by virus infection: Managed pastures the forgotten dimension

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 71, Issue 6, Page 1255-1281, August 2022., 2022
This review seeks to highlight the major contribution made by past studies in managed pasture towards understanding the impacts of virus infection on the species balance in mixed plant species systems. Abstract What occurs when virus infection is spreading within a mixed plant species population?

Pest categorisation of Colletotrichum aenigma, C. alienum, C. perseae, C. siamense and C. theobromicola

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 20, Issue 8, August 2022., 2022
Abstract The EFSA Plant Health Panel performed a pest categorisation of Colletotrichum aenigma, C. alienum, C. perseae, C. siamense and C. theobromicola, five clearly defined fungi of the C. gloeosporioides complex causing anthracnose. The pathogens are widely distributed in at least three continents. C. aenigma and C.

A meta‐analysis of responses of C3 plants to atmospheric CO2: dose–response curves for 85 traits ranging from the molecular to the whole‐plant level

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 233, Issue 4, Page 1560-1596, February 2022., 2022
Summary Generalised dose–response curves are essential to understand how plants acclimate to atmospheric CO2. We carried out a meta‐analysis of 630 experiments in which C3 plants were experimentally grown at different [CO2] under relatively benign conditions, and derived dose–response curves for 85 phenotypic traits.

Identifying existing management practices in the control of Striga asiatica within rice–maize systems in mid‐west Madagascar

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 19, Page 13579-13592, October 2021., 2021
The parasitic weed genus Striga causes huge losses to crop production to subsistence farmers in sub‐Saharan Africa. Here, we report a multiyear, landscape‐scale monitoring project for Striga asiatica in the mid‐west of Madagascar. A range of cultural, climatic, and edaphic factors have been identified as driving abundance and distribution, which have ...

Predicting and managing plant invasions on offshore islands

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 3, Issue 2, February 2021., 2021
Abstract Resources for biodiversity conservation are limited and it is therefore imperative that management actions that have the best chance of success are prioritized. Non‐native species (NNS) are one of the key problems facing biodiversity conservation, so understanding how NNS disperse and establish can inform more effective conservation planning ...

Commodity risk assessment of <i>Petunia</i> spp. and <i>Calibrachoa</i> spp. unrooted cuttings from Uganda. [PDF]

open access: yesEFSA J
Abstract The European Commission requested the EFSA Panel on Plant Health to evaluate the likelihood of pest freedom at entry in the EU, including both regulated and non‐regulated pests, potentially associated with unrooted cuttings of the genera Petunia and Calibrachoa produced under physical isolation in Uganda.
