Inhibition of broomrape germination by 2,4‐diacetylphloroglucinol produced by environmental Pseudomonas

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 12, Page 2313-2325, December 2023., 2023
The present work expands our knowledge about the role that DAPG‐producing Pseudomonas play as natural bioherbicides to ward off parasitic plant infections, which are responsible for important yield losses in crops. Abstract Parasitic weeds such as broomrapes (Phelipanche ramosa and Orobanche cumana) cause severe damage to crops and their development ...

The underexplored potential of green macroalgae in aquaculture

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 5-26, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Green macroalgae (Chlorophyta) currently represent a residual fraction (<1%) of global seaweed biomass production landings. In turn, red (Rhodophyta) and brown (Ochrophyta) macroalgae dominate the remaining percentage of aquaculture production, exceeding 32 million tonnes per annum.

Host and pathogen autophagy are central to the inducible local defences and systemic response of the giant kelp Macrocystis pyrifera against the oomycete pathogen Anisolpidium ectocarpii

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 226, Issue 5, Page 1445-1460, June 2020., 2020
Summary Kelps are key primary producers of cold and temperate marine coastal ecosystems and exhibit systemic defences against pathogens. Yet, the cellular mechanisms underpinning their immunity remain to be elucidated. We investigated the time course of infection of the kelp Macrocystis pyrifera by the oomycete Anisolpidium ectocarpii using TEM, in ...

Genome-wide prediction and functional validation of promoter motifs regulating gene expression in spore and infection stages of Phytophthora infestans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2013
Most eukaryotic pathogens have complex life cycles in which gene expression networks orchestrate the formation of cells specialized for dissemination or host colonization.

Zoosporogênese in vitro entre isolados do oomiceto Pythium insidiosum In vitro zoosporogenesis among oomycetes Pythium insidiosum isolates

open access: yesCiência Rural, 2008
Pythium insidiosum é um oomiceto aquático, responsável pela etiologia da pitiose, uma enfermidade crônica, observada freqüentemente em eqüinos. A produção de zoósporos móveis por este microrganismo se constitui no fator determinante da ocorrência da ...

Macroalgal morphogenesis induced by waterborne compounds and bacteria in coastal seawater [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Axenic gametes of the marine green macroalga Ulva mutabilis Foyn (Ria Formosa, locus typicus) exhibit abnormal development into slow-growing callus-like colonies with aberrant cell walls.

Calcium signaling in oomycetes: an evolutionary perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Oomycetes are a family of eukaryotic microbes that superficially resemble fungi, but which are phylogenetically distinct from them. These organisms cause major global economic losses to agriculture and fisheries, with representative pathogens being ...

Chitosan biostimulant controls infection of cucumber by Phytophthora capsici through suppression of asexual reproduction of the pathogen

open access: yesActa Agrobotanica, 2019
The biopolymer chitosan is a derivative of chitin, which can promote plant growth and protect plants from phytopathogens. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of chitosan as a biostimulant and a biorational agent to protect cucumber plants from ...

Current ecological understanding of fungal-like pathogens of fish: what lies beneath? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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

A Mating-Induced Protein of Phytophthora infestans Is a Member of a Family of Elicitors with Divergent Structures and Stage-Specific Patterns of Expression

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2003
Five members of an elicitor-like gene family from Phytophthora infestans were examined. The family was identified through the analysis of M81, a mating-induced gene. The predicted M81 product resembled a 42-kDa P.
