UvSorA and UvSorB Involved in Sorbicillinoid Biosynthesis Contribute to Fungal Development, Stress Response and Phytotoxicity in Ustilaginoidea virens [PDF]

, 2022
Ustilaginoidea virens (teleomorph: Villosiclava virens) is an important fungal pathogen that causes a devastating rice disease. It can produce mycotoxins including sorbicillinoids.

Comprehensive identification of lysine 2‐hydroxyisobutyrylated proteins in Ustilaginoidea virens reveals the involvement of lysine 2‐hydroxyisobutyrylation in fungal virulence

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 409-425, February 2021., 2021
Lysine 2‐hydroxyisobutyrylation (Khib) is a newly identified post‐translational modification (PTM) in eukaryotes. However, its function remains unknown in phytopathogenic fungi. Our findings establish Khib as a major PTM in rice false smut fungus Ustilaginoidea virens and point to an important role for Khib in fungal virulence.

Gap-Free Nuclear and Mitochondrial Genomes of Ustilaginoidea virens JS60-2, a Fungal Pathogen Causing Rice False Smut

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2022
Rice false smut (RFS), caused by Ustilaginoidea virens, has become a major disease in recent years, and mycotoxins produced by U. virens often threaten food safety. To study fungal pathogenesis and identify potential targets for developing new fungicides,

Sclerotia of rice false smut disease in Bangladesh

Fundamental and Applied Agriculture, 2023
It is perceived that sclerotia of the pathogen, in addition to chlamydospores, play an important role in the epidemiology of rice false smut disease. The propagule has been identified only in five rice growing countries of the world, and never recorded ...

A Homeobox Transcription Factor UvHOX2 Regulates Chlamydospore Formation, Conidiogenesis, and Pathogenicity in Ustilaginoidea virens

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Rice false smut fungus (teleomorph: Villosiclava virens; anamorph: Ustilaginoidea virens) can generate chlamydospores and survive winter under field conditions. The chlamydospore is considered as an important infection source of the disease.

The essential effector SCRE1 in Ustilaginoidea virens suppresses rice immunity via a small peptide region

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 21, Issue 4, Page 445-459, April 2020., 2020
The Ustilaginoidea virens effector SCRE1 can suppress plant immunity and promote disease development in rice and a novel small peptide region is identified to be essential for SCRE1 immunosuppressive ability. Summary The biotrophic fungal pathogen Ustilaginoidea virens causes rice false smut, a newly emerging plant disease that has become epidemic ...

The false smut pathogen Ustilaginoidea virens requires rice stamens for false smut ball formation

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 22, Issue 2, Page 646-659, February 2020., 2020
Summary Rice false smut has emerged as a serious grain disease in rice production worldwide. The disease is characterized by the transformation of individual rice florets into false smut balls, which is caused by the fungal pathogen Ustilaginoidea virens.
