Isolation and identification of six newly recorded wheat Fusarium crown rot associated species.

Fusarium crown rot (FCR) has become one of the most serious diseases affecting wheat production worldwide. To date, many Fusarium species associated with wheat FCR disease have been reported. To gain a deeper understanding of Fusarium species diversity associated with wheat FCR, extensive research was conducted to identify different Fusarium species.

Relationships between Wheat Development, Soil Properties, and Rhizosphere Mycobiota.

Wheat is a vital global food crop, yet it faces challenges in saline-alkali soils where Fusarium crown rot significantly impacts growth. Variations in wheat growth across regions are often attributed to uneven terrain. To explore these disparities, we examined well-growing and poorly growing wheat samples and their rhizosphere soils.

Histone H3 N-Terminal Lysine Acetylation Governs Fungal Growth, Conidiation, and Pathogenicity through Regulating Gene Expression in .

The acetylation of histone lysine residues regulates multiple life processes, including growth, conidiation, and pathogenicity in filamentous pathogenic fungi. However, the specific function of each lysine residue at the N-terminus of histone H3 in phytopathogenic fungi remains unclear. In this study, we mutated the N-terminal lysine residues of histone H3 in , the main causal agent of Fusarium crown rot of wheat in China, which also produces deoxynivalenol (DON) toxins harmful to humans and animals.

Effect of on rhizosphere microbial communities and biocontrol of soybean root rot.

Biological seed dressing is a cost-effective means to protect plant roots from pathogens. is generally considered as one of the most common biological seed dressings. However, there is still a dearth of information on the effects of on microbial community of rhizosphere soil.

FgCsn12 Is Involved in the Regulation of Ascosporogenesis in the Wheat Scab Fungus .

Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by the fungal pathogen , is a destructive disease worldwide. Ascospores are the primary inoculum of , and sexual reproduction is a critical step in its infection cycle. In this study, we characterized the functions of FgCsn12.

Characterization of a novel mitovirus isolated from the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium pseudograminearum.

Mycoviruses are widespread in all major groups of plant-pathogenic fungi. So far, only one mycovirus has been reported to be associated with Fusarium pseudograminearum, the causal agent of Fusarium crown rot of wheat. In this study, a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) segment was isolated from F.

Impact of ozonated water disinfestation on soil fungal community composition in continuous ginger field.

This study aimed to explore the impact of ozonated water (OW) disinfestation on soil fungal community composition in continuous ginger field. All soil samples were collected in continuous ginger field. There were two groups and 5 time points (0, 1, 3, 5, 9 day) in our study, including OW disinfestation treatment group (O3 group) and control group (CK group).

First Report of Maize Seedling Blight Caused by in China.

Maize ( L.) is one of the most important food and feed crops in China, with a cultivation area of more than 40 million hectares (http://www.fao.

First report of Pythium aphanidermatum causing root rot of head lettuce in China.

Head lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) is an important crop for fresh consumption in China. In Shandong Province, head lettuce is planted in spring and in autumn each year.

First Report of Root and Crown Rot of American Ginseng Caused by Pythium spinosum in China.

American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius) is a perennial herb whose dried roots are used for health care products, medicine, and food in China (Yuan et al. 2010). Shandong Province is the main area growing American ginseng and contributes more than 50% of the production in China.
