SUMMARYThe aim of this review was to survey all fungal pathologists with an
association with the journal Molecular Plant Pathology and ask them to nominate
which fungal pathogens they would place in a ‘Top 10’ based on
scientific/economic importance. The survey generated 495 votes from the
international community, and resulted in the generation of a Top 10 fungal plant
pathogen list for Molecular ... hiện toàn bộ
Top 10 plant pathogenic bacteria in molecular plant pathology Tập 13 Số 6 - Trang 614-629 - 2012
John W. Mansfıeld, Stéphane Genin, Shimpei Magori, Vitaly Citovsky, Malinee Sriariyanun, Pamela C. Ronald, J. Maxwell Dow, Valérie Verdier, S.V. Beer, Marcos Antônio Machado, Ian K. Toth, George P. C. Salmond, Gary D. Foster
SUMMARYMany plant bacteriologists, if not all, feel that their particular
microbe should appear in any list of the most important bacterial plant
pathogens. However, to our knowledge, no such list exists. The aim of this
review was to survey all bacterial pathologists with an association with the
journal Molecular Plant Pathology and ask them to nominate the bacterial
pathogens they would place in... hiện toàn bộ
Botrytis cinerea: the cause of grey mould disease Tập 8 Số 5 - Trang 561-580 - 2007
B. Williamson, Bettina Tudzynski, Paul Tudzynski, J.A.L. van Kan
SUMMARYIntroduction: Botrytis cinerea (teleomorph: Botryotinia fuckeliana) is
an airborne plant pathogen with a necrotrophic lifestyle attacking over 200 crop
hosts worldwide. Although there are fungicides for its control, many classes of
fungicides have failed due to its genetic plasticity. It has become an important
model for molecular study of necrotrophic fungi. Taxonomy: Kingdom: Fungi,

Birch, Francine Govers
SummaryOomycetes form a deep lineage of eukaryotic organisms that includes a
large number of plant pathogens which threaten natural and managed ecosystems.
We undertook a survey to query the community for their ranking of
plant‐pathogenic oomycete species based on scientific and economic importance.
In total, we received 263 votes from 62 scientists in 15 countries for a total
of 33 species. The T... hiện toàn bộ
Phytoplasmas: bacteria that manipulate plants and insects Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 403-423 - 2008
Saskia A. Hogenhout, Kenro Oshima, El‐Desouky Ammar, Shigeyuki Kakizawa, Heather N. Kingdom, Susumu Namba
SUMMARYTaxonomy: Superkingdom Prokaryota; Kingdom Monera; Domain Bacteria;
Phylum Firmicutes (low‐G+C, Gram‐positive eubacteria); Class Mollicutes;
Candidatus (Ca.) genus Phytoplasma.Host range: Ca. Phytoplasma comprises
approximately 30 distinct clades based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses of
~200 phytoplasmas. Phytoplasmas are mostly dependent on insect transmission for
their spread and s... hiện toàn bộ
Aspergillus flavus: the major producer of aflatoxin Tập 8 Số 6 - Trang 713-722 - 2007
Maren A. Klich
SUMMARY Aspergillus flavus is an opportunistic pathogen of crops. It is
important because it produces aflatoxin as a secondary metabolite in the seeds
of a number of crops both before and after harvest. Aflatoxin is a potent
carcinogen that is highly regulated in most countries. In the field, aflatoxin
is associated with drought‐stressed oilseed crops including maize, peanut,
cottonseed and tree n... hiện toàn bộ
A review of wheat diseases—a field perspective Tập 19 Số 6 - Trang 1523-1536 - 2018
Melania Figueroa, K. E. Hammond‐Kosack, Peter S. Solomon
SummaryWheat is one of the primary staple foods throughout the planet.
Significant yield gains in wheat production over the past 40 years have resulted
in a steady balance of supply versus demand. However, predicted global
population growth rates and dietary changes mean that substantial yield gains
over the next several decades will be needed to meet this escalating demand. A
key component to mee... hiện toàn bộ
Citrus tristeza virus: a pathogen that changed the course of the citrus industry Tập 9 Số 2 - Trang 251-268 - 2008
Pedro Moreno, Silvia Ambrós, Marı́a R. Albiach-Martı́, J. Guerri, Leandro Peña
SUMMARY Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) (genus Closterovirus, family
Closteroviridae) is the causal agent of devastating epidemics that changed the
course of the citrus industry. Adapted to replicate in phloem cells of a few
species within the family Rutaceae and to transmission by a few aphid species,
CTV and citrus probably coevolved for centuries at the site of origin of citrus
plants. CTV dispersa... hiện toàn bộ
A highly efficient transient protoplast system for analyzing defence gene expression and protein–protein interactions in rice Tập 7 Số 5 - Trang 417-427 - 2006
Songbiao Chen, LIZEN TAO, Lirong Zeng, Miguel E. Vega‐Sánchez, Kenji Umemura, Guo‐Liang Wang
SUMMARYThe transient assay system based on mesophyll or cultured cell‐derived
protoplasts has been exploited in several plant species and has become a
powerful tool for rapid gene functional analysis and biochemical manipulations.
However, the system has not been widely used in rice owing to the difficulties
in large‐scale isolation of viable rice protoplasts from leaves or
suspension‐cultured cel... hiện toàn bộ
Overview and analysis of the polyprotein cleavage sites in the family Potyviridae Tập 6 Số 4 - Trang 471-487 - 2005
Michael J. Studdert, J. F. Antoniw, Frédéric Beaudoin
SUMMARYThe genomes of plant viruses in the family Potyviridae encode large
polyproteins that are cut by virus‐encoded proteases into ten mature proteins.
Three different types of protease have been identified, each of which cuts at
sites with a distinctive sequence pattern. The experimental evidence for this
specificity is reviewed and the cleavage site patterns are compiled for all
sequenced spec... hiện toàn bộ
