Survey and examination of the potential alternative hosts of Villosiclava virens, the pathogen of rice false smut, in China [PDF]
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2015 Rice false smut is caused by ascomycete Villosiclava virens, whose potential alternative hosts have been assumed previously. Here its potential alternative hosts were surveyed and identified from 2008 to 2013 in the main rice-growing regions in China ...

The Identification, Characterization, and Functional Analysis of the Sugar Transporter Gene Family of the Rice False Smut Pathogen, Villosiclava virens. [PDF]
Int J Mol SciFalse smut, caused by Villosiclava virens, is becoming increasingly serious in modern rice production systems, leading to yield losses and quality declines. Successful infection requires efficient acquisition of sucrose, abundant in rice panicles, as well as other sugars. Sugar transporters (STPs) may play an important role in this process. STPs belong

Detection of ustilaginoidins in rice samples by immunoassay based on monoclonal antibodies prepared from hemiustilaginoidin-derived haptens [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Ustilaginoidins are a class of bis-naphtho-γ-pyrone mycotoxins to threaten humans, animals and environment. Ustilaginoidins are produced by Villosiclava virens, the rice false smut pathogen.

Mating type loci analysis indicates that Villosiclava virens, the casual agent of false smut disease of rice, is a homothallic fungus [PDF]
Tropical Plant Pathology, 2014 Villosiclava virens (anamorph: Ustilaginoidea virens) was isolated from infected rice plants, where it caused false smut. Similar to other ascomycetes, the sexual compatibility of V. virens is controlled by the mating type (MAT) locus. In this study, we applied a PCR-based approach to screen mating type genes in the single asexual spore isolate.

Effect of calcined lime (CaO) on chlamydospores of the rice false smut pathogen, Villosiclava virens , and their root attachment and infection [PDF]
Plant Pathology, 2021 Abstract Rice false smut caused by Villosiclava virens is a devastating disease. The smut balls contain chlamydospores, which fall onto paddy soils to become the primary inoculum. After transplanting, the chlamydospores subsequently germinate and infect rice roots.
