Machuka, Nasser Yao, Francesca Stomeo, Richard EchoduAbstractSweet potato feathery mottle virus is a potyvirus that infects sweet potato. The genome of the virus was analysed to understand genetic diversity, evolution and gene flow. Motifs, nucleotide identity and a phylogenetic tree were used to determine phylogroup of the isolates. Gene flow and genetic diversity were tested using DnaSP v.5. Codons evolution were tested us...

Reduction of brown blotch disease and tyrosinase activity in Agaricus bisporus infected by Pseudomonas tolaasii upon treatment with endofungal bacteria
In this study, the biocontrol mechanisms mediated by endofungal bacteria Pseudomonas sp. De1, Bacillus sp. De3, Pseudomonas sp. Bi1 and Pantoea sp. Ma3 previously isolated from wild growing mushrooms against Pseudomonas tolaasii Pt18 were demonstrated. Our results provide evidence that all bacterial strains can colonize mycelia of Agaricus bisporus. All endogungal bacteria except Pseudomonas sp. Bi1 contained one or more genes encoding antibiotic production. The non-volatile compounds of endofungal bacteria significantly inhibited the biofilm formation by P. tolaasii Pt18. Results showed that all strains except Pantoea sp....

Silencing of a phosphopantetheinyl transferase gene Ss-Ppt1 affects multiple developmental pathways and pathogenicity in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum
Publication date: Available online 3 February 2020Source: Physiological and Molecular Plant PathologyAuthor(s): Xiuli Li, Weiyan Wang, Wenting Wang, Yuemin Pan, Huajian Zhang, Zhimou GaoAbstractIn the genome sequence of the fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, a phosphopantetheinyl transferase gene homolog Ss-Ppt1 (Accession XM_ 001596461.1) with 1 SCOP and 1 ACPS module was identified. And the transcription of Ss-Ppt1 was increased significantly at the sclerotial maturation stage. Silenced mutant strains of Ss-Ppt1 were generated by RNA interference method. The mutant strains were screened and characterized. Compared...

Transcriptome profiles of a native rice variety Hongyou-4 responding to infections of hypervirulent and hypovirulent Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola strains
This study aimed to evaluate the response of the native rice variety Hongyou-4 (HY4) to two different transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) genotypes of Xoc. HY4 was significantly susceptible to Xoc strain 13T19 and resistant to Xoc strain YM15. Transcriptomic analysis of HY4 leaves inoculated with the two Xoc TALEs genotypes revealed 1339 and 1219 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in rice inoculated with Xoc strain 13T19 (HY.Q) and Xoc strain YM15 (HY.R), respectively, compared to the control. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) for expression of 10 randomly selected genes was used to verify the RNA-Seq data...
