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
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.

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 ...

Reproductive behavior and role in maintaining an aggregative form of the freshwater green alga Marimo, Aegagropila linnaei, in Lake Akan, Hokkaido, Japan [PDF]
Aegagropila linnaei is a unique freshwater green alga that develops into spherical aggregations known as "lake balls", "Cladophora balls" or "Marimo". Loss of this species is progressing globally, and there is concern over threats and its conservation ...

A method to obtain rapid zoosporogenesis of Pythium insidiosum
Nine strains of Pythium insidiosum the etiologic agent of pythiosis, were inoculated on 2% water agar plus grass blades and then incubated one day at 25 degrees C, 35 degrees C and 37 degrees C. Sporangium and secondary biflagellate-type zoosporas from the parasitized grass blades were noticed in induction medium after one hour of incubation at 35 ...

Ultrastructural studies on zoosporogenesis of Halopteris filicina (Sphacelariales, Phaeophyta)
Abstract The development of the unilocular sporangia of Halopteris filicina (Phaeophyta) commences with the formation of the reproductive branchlets, the apical cells of which differentiate into spore mother cells. Afterwards, meiosis occurs, which becomes evident by the formation of typical synaptonemal complexes.

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.
