Update of the list of qualified presumption of safety (QPS) recommended microbiological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 23: Suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until September 2025

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) process was developed to provide a harmonised safety assessment approach to support EFSA Scientific Panels and Units. The QPS approach assesses the taxonomic identity, body of relevant knowledge and safety of microorganisms intentionally added to the food and feed chain.

Reaction of maize hybrids to ear rot caused by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe

Plant Protection Science, 2002
Ear rot caused by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe (teleomorph stage: Gibberella zeae (Schwein.) Petch) is a destructive disease of maize. In our experiment we tested twenty maize hybrids.

Identification of Fusarium verticillioides Isolates and Their Impact on Seed Germination and Biochemical Profiles in Maize

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 6, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Fusarium verticillioides is a common fungal pathogen of maize that causes significant losses in seed quality and seedling performance. Despite the high prevalence of this fungus in Ghanaian maize varieties, there is relatively little knowledge of the impact of F. verticillioides on seedling performance of Ghanaian maize varieties.

Deciphering the Distribution Patterns of Pathogens Associated With Esca and Petri Diseases in Rootstock Mother Vines Potentiates the Development of Alternative Control Strategies in Grapevine Nurseries

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 9, Page 2644-2653, December 2025.
Use of rootstock cane tip sections, and removal of rootstock mother vines heavily infected by Petri and esca disease‐related pathogens, could lead to the production of healthier grapevine propagation material. ABSTRACT The widespread emergence of Phaeomoniella chlamydospora and Phaeoacremonium minimum in grapevine nurseries over the past two decades ...

The impacts of the discontinuation of dual nomenclature of pleomorphic fungi: the trivial facts, problems, and strategies

IMA Fungus, 2012
The symposium “One fungus = Which name” held in Amsterdam 12–13 April 2012, addressed the drastic changes in the naming of pleomorphic fungi adopted by the 18th International Botanical Congress in Melbourne in 2011.

Geophilic dermatophytes and other keratinophilic fungi in the nests of wetland birds

Acta Mycologica, 2013
The frequency and species diversity of keratinophilic fungi in 38 nests of nine species of wetland birds were examined. Nine species of geophilic dermatophytes and 13 Chrysosporium species were recorded. Ch.

Advanced backcross selection for resistance to Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination in maize

Crop Science, Volume 65, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
Abstract Ear rots and mycotoxin contamination of grain in maize (Zea mays L.) pose a threat to food production and safety, best ameliorated by breeding for resistance. In this study, we introgressed alleles conferring resistance to Fusarium ear rot and fumonisin contamination from GE440, a highly resistant inbred with poor agronomic performance, into ...

Genetic improvement of FHB and DON resistance by combining the Fhb1 gene with additional resistance QTL in winter wheat population

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), caused by Fusarium graminearum, is a major wheat disease that causes significant yield and quality loss. The use of resistant cultivars is an effective tool for managing FHB; however, FHB resistance is a complex trait.

Acute respiratory distress caused by Neosartorya udagawae

Medical Mycology Case Reports, 2014
We describe the first reported case of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) attributed to Neosartorya udagawae infection. This mold grew rapidly in cultures of multiple respiratory specimens from a previously healthy 43-year-old woman.

Genetic mapping of Ascochyta blight resistance in an ILL6002 × Indianhead lentil mapping population

The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Ascochyta blight of lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) is a fungal disease caused by Ascochyta lentis. This study was carried out to identify the location of quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with resistance from the accession Indianhead, and how these vary between the recently identified pathotypes of A. lentis.
