Identification and pathogenicity analysis of Fusarium spp. on peach in China.

Background: Vascular system is affected by diseases that can seriously damage plant health by inducing browning and death of branches. This study aimed to identify and analyze the pathogenicity of Fusarium spp. isolates obtained from diseased peach branches in several peach-producing areas of China.

Chitinase Chi 2 Positively Regulates Cucumber Resistance against f. sp. cucumerinum.

Cucumber ( L.) is an important vegetable crop worldwide, and wilt (), caused by f. sp.

Identification of Susceptibility Genes for in Cucumber via Comparative Proteomic Analysis.

wilt () in cucumber ( L.), caused by f. sp.

Identification of miRNA-Target Gene Pairs Responsive to Wilt of Cucumber via an Integrated Analysis of miRNA and Transcriptome Profiles.

Induced resistance in nectarine fruit by Bacillus licheniformis W10 for the control of brown rot caused by Monilinia fructicola.

Brown rot caused by Monilinia fructicola has led to considerable preharvest and postharvest losses in all major nectarine fruit-growing areas. In our previous study, we successfully identified a biocontrol strain of bacteria, Bacillus licheniformis W10, that can be used to control brown rot. However, the possible mechanism of the control of brown rot by B.

Transcriptome analysis reveals ethylene-mediated defense responses to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum infection in Cucumis sativus L.

Background: Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum (Foc), is a severe disease affecting cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.

Inheritance and Quantitative Trait Locus Mapping of Wilt Resistance in Cucumber.

wilt (FW) is a very serious soil-borne disease worldwide, which usually results in huge yield losses in cucumber production. However, the inheritance and molecular mechanism of the response to FW are still unknown in cucumber ( L.).

Variation of genetic diversity in a rapidly expanding population of the greater long-tailed hamster (Tscherskia triton) as revealed by microsatellites.

Genetic diversity is essential for persistence of animal populations over both the short- and long-term. Previous studies suggest that genetic diversity may decrease with population decline due to genetic drift or inbreeding of small populations. For oscillating populations, there are some studies on the relationship between population density and genetic diversity, but these studies were based on short-term observation or in low-density phases.
