Conservation challenges and opportunities for native apple (Malus) species in Canada

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 1, Page 134-156, January 2026.
Apple, one of the world's most widely cultivated and economically important fruit crops, has two wild relatives native to Canada. In this review, we describe the importance of these native apple species to Indigenous heritage and the current threats the species faces due to pests, diseases, and habitat loss.

In Vitro Study of Fitness Parameters in Fungicide-Resistant and -Sensitive Venturia inaequalis Isolates

Учёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки
The developing resistance of Venturia inaequalis to toxicants commonly used in systemic fungicides against apple scab has reduced their effectiveness, causing substantial fruit loss in orchards.

On the origin and spread of the Scab disease of apple: out of central Asia.

PLoS ONE, 2008
BackgroundVenturia inaequalis is an ascomycete fungus responsible for apple scab, a disease that has invaded almost all apple growing regions worldwide, with the corresponding adverse effects on apple production.

Changes in Environmental Conditions Differentially Affect the Bacterial Microbiome Communities in Different Apple Fruit Tissues

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
This study investigates the bacterial communities in ‘Honeycrisp’ apples in Atlantic Canada, highlighting how weather, and farming practices shape these communities in different fruit tissues. Weather impacts core and peel tissues bacteria differently across growing seasons, identifies key microbes in microbial interaction networks, and provides ...

Variation in Quantitative Resistance Components to the Fungus Pseudocercospora fijiensis Causing Black Leaf Streak Disease Among Banana Genotypes

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 9, Page 2857-2879, December 2025.
We assessed the quantitative resistance components of different banana genotypes to the fungus Pseudocercospora fijiensis causing black leaf streak disease in field and controlled conditions. ABSTRACT Combining different components of quantitative resistance in new banana hybrids has potential for developing efficient and durable control of black leaf ...

Molecular Investigation of Rlm3 From Rapeseed as a Potential Broad‐Spectrum Resistance Gene Against Fungal Pathogens Producing Structurally Conserved Effectors

Plant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 9, Page 2880-2894, December 2025.
AvrLm3 and structural analogues from the multipathogen LARS family trigger recognition by Rlm3 from rapeseed, that recognition being abolished by the presence of AvrLm4‐7 or mutation of key amino acids. ABSTRACT Recognition of a pathogen avirulence (AVR) effector protein by its cognate plant resistance (R) protein triggers immune responses that are ...

Climate and Land‐Use Changes Predicted to Jointly Drive Soil Fungal Diversity Losses in One‐Third of North American Coniferous Forests

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
This study assessed the potential impacts of climate and land‐use change on soil fungal diversity across four North American biomes. We found that climate change typically caused both diversity losses and gains, particularly in coniferous forests and among arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, whereas land‐use change mainly reduced diversity, especially in ...

Genetic Analysis of Apple Autumn Canopy Senescence in a Nordic Climate

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Autumn phenology traits are likely to be essential for the adaptation of apple to boreal climate. However, the genetic control of these traits is not well understood, and, for example, growth cessation does not appear to be controlled by day length as in many other boreal tree species.
