Black spot caused by Alternaria brassicicola is an important fungal disease affecting cruciferous crops, including Korean cabbage (Brassica rapa subsp. pekinensis). The interaction between Arabidopsis thaliana and Alt. brassicicola is a representative model system, and objective estimation of
Previous studies have shown the role of melanized appressoria in the pathogenicity of various fungi. Diplocarpon rosae is a worldwide outdoor fungal pathogen of rose plants causing black spot disease of rose leaves. To fully understand how this fungus colonizes its host, which is critical for the
To investigate the molecular and genetic mechanisms underlying virulence of Colletotrichum higginsianum on Arabidopsis thaliana, a T-DNA insertion mutant library of C. higginsianum, the causal agent of crucifer anthracnose, was established using Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation.
We cloned a novel lysophospholipase (CnLYSO1) from Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii by PCR amplification and a cDNA library screen. The open reading frame (ORF) of 1278 nucleotides coded for a predicted 426-amino-acid protein (CnLyso1p) with two highly conserved GXSXG lipase-specific catalytic
Tolprocarb developed by Mitsui Chemicals Agro, Inc. (Tokyo, Japan) was discovered as a new oomycete fungicide. However, its antifungal spectrum and action mechanisms against fungi are completely different from those of the original compound, iprovalicarb. Tolprocarb has a potent and highly
The Bcl-2 associated athanogene (BAG) family is an evolutionarily conserved group of co-chaperones that confers stress protection against a variety of cellular insults extending from yeasts, plants to humans. Little is known, however, regarding the biological role of BAG proteins in phytopathogenic
SUMMARY Alternaria brassicicola is the causative agent of black spot disease of Brassicaceae belonging to the genera Brassica and Raphanus. During host infection, A. brassicicola is exposed to high levels of antimicrobial defence compounds such as indolic phytoalexins and glucosinolate breakdown
Mutations causing a visible phenotype in the adult serve as valuable visible genetic markers in multicellular genetic model organisms such as Drosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis elegans and Arabidopsis thaliana. In a large scale screen for mutations affecting early development of the zebrafish,
