During the last years Phytophthora infestans sensu lato (Mont. De Bary) has caused epidemics in Colombia in Andean fruit crops such as Solanum quitoense and Solanum betaceum. Establishment of new or modified experimental procedures to study this pathogen

Diseases of wild strawberries in Primorye
Relevance. Garden strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) is one of the most popular and widespread berry crops in the world. One of the reasons for the strawberries low yields is the loss of production from fungal diseases.

Current ecological understanding of fungal-like pathogens of fish: what lies beneath? [PDF]
Despite increasingly sophisticated microbiological techniques, and long after the first discovery of microbes, basic knowledge is still lacking to fully appreciate the ecological importance of microbial parasites in fish. This is likely due to the nature

Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), one of the most widely grown vegetables worldwide, is susceptible to root rot caused by Phytophthora capsici. Many biocides have recently been banned in Europe because of human health and environmental concerns.

Phylogenomics of a new fungal phylum reveals multiple waves of reductive evolution across Holomycota
Unicellular fungi with free-living flagellated stages (zoospores) remain poorly known. Here, Galindo et al. sequence single-cell genomes for two atypical parasitic fungi with amoeboid zoospores, and re-evaluate the branching order of early-diverging ...

Ulva zoospores preferentially settle on N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL) producing marine bacterial biofilms. To investigate whether AHL signal molecules also affect the success and rate of zoospore germination in addition to zoospore attraction, the ...

Movements of Zoospores of Phytophthora capsici
A new photometrical device for measuring the tactic aggregation of zoospores of Phytophthora capsici Leon. is described in this paper.An annular diaphragm (×100) of Nikon phase contrast microscope was employed for dark ground illumination and reflected light intensity in the microscopic field was measured by an ordinary exposure meter for microscopic ...

Many roads to reservoirs? How susceptibility and shedding shape host competence in amphibians
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Host competence—the ability to acquire, harbour and transmit infections—drives pathogen spread and persistence in multi‐host communities. Evaluating species‐specific competence is critical for predicting transmission, particularly for generalist fungal pathogens like ...

Gene expression differs in susceptible and resistant amphibians exposed to Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis. [PDF]
Chytridiomycosis, the disease caused by the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has devastated global amphibian biodiversity. Nevertheless, some hosts avoid disease after Bd exposure even as others experience near-complete extirpation ...

Negative Chemotaxis of Zoospores of Phytophthora cinnamomi [PDF]
SUMMARY: Zoospores of Phytophthora cinnamomi in a concentration gradient of hydrochloric acid or its chloride salts exhibited acute, repetitive turning movements at a point which corresponded to a critical concentration of cation and not to a critical concentration gradient.
