Transport and Retention of Phytophthora capsici Zoospores in Saturated Porous Media

, 2016
Phytophthora capsici is an important plant pathogen capable of infecting several major vegetable crops. Water-induced P. capsici transport is considered to be a significant contributor to disease outbreaks and subsequent crop loss.

Functional characterization of macrophages and change of Th1/Th2 balance in patients with pythiosis after Pythium insidiosum antigen immunotherapy

Scientific Reports
There has been limited research into the role of the Pythium insidiosum antigen (PIA) in modulating immune response in patients with pythiosis. This study investigated the balance of T helper type 2 (Th2) and T helper type 1 (Th1) responses after ...

Fungal infection intensity and zoospore output of Atelopus zeteki, a potential acute chytrid supershedder.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Amphibians vary in their response to infection by the amphibian-killing chytrid fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). Highly susceptible species are the first to decline and/or disappear once Bd arrives at a site.

CHEMOTAXIS OF BATRACHOCHYTRIUM DENDROBATIDIS ZOOSPORES IN RESPONSE TO LIVE AMPHIBIANS [PDF]

, 2018
Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is one of the primary drivers of amphibian decline, and has spread rapidly on a global scale, but the mechanisms of Bd movement on small spatial scales are poorly understood and may play a role in transmission and ...

Zoospore release v1

This protocol describes how to prepare giant kelp sporophyll blades for zoospore release in a lab setting. The procedure is designed to result in a consistently successful release of zoospores from processed giant kelp sporophyll blades. The protocol is based on Reed et al.

Moving with purpose: kelp zoospore motility governs encounters, settlement, and early recruitment

Frontiers in Marine Science
Kelp forests depend on the successful settlement of microscopic zoospores, the motile dispersal stage of the kelp life cycle. Settlement begins with arrival at a surface and culminates in stable attachment through adhesive contact and curing.

HOST AND SITE SPECIFICITY OF CHEMOTACTIC RESPONSES OF ZOOSPORES OF PYTHIUM SPECIES TO ROOTS AND ROOT CAP CELLS OF GOSSYPIUM BARBADENSE AND GOSSYPIUM HIRSUTUM

, 1987
Root cap cells of two cotton species elicited a specific chemotactic response in zoospores of Pythium dissotocum. When roots of cotton seedlings were placed into a suspension of P.

Microfluidic Sensors for the Detection of Motile Plant Zoospores

Biosensors
Plant pathogen zoospores play a vital role in the transmission of several significant plant diseases, with their early detection being important for effective pathogen management. Current methods for pathogen detection involve labour-intensive specimen collection and laboratory testing, lacking real-time feedback capabilities.
