Expression of Genes Involved in Anthracnose Resistance in Chili () 'PBC80'-Derived Recombinant Inbred Lines.

Chili anthracnose has long been a threat to chili production worldwide. 'PBC80' has been identified as a source of resistance to anthracnose. Recently, a QTL for ripe fruit resistance from 'PBC80'-derived RILs was located on chromosome 4 (123 Mb) and contained over 80 defense-related genes.

Two Newly Identified Species Associated with Mango Anthracnose in Central Thailand.

Anthracnose caused by spp. is one of the major problems in mango production worldwide, including Thailand. All mango cultivars are susceptible, but Nam Dok Mai See Thong (NDMST) is the most vulnerable.

Identification, prevalence and pathogenicity of species causing anthracnose of in Asia.

Anthracnose of chili ( spp.) causes major production losses throughout Asia where chili plants are grown. A total of 260 isolates, associated with necrotic lesions of chili leaves and fruit were collected from chili producing areas of Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Taiwan.

Differential resistances to anthracnose in Capsicum baccatum as responding to two Colletotrichum pathotypes and inoculation methods.

Chili anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum spp., is one of the major diseases to chili production in the tropics and subtropics worldwide. Breeding for durable anthracnose resistance requires a good understanding of the resistance mechanisms to different pathotypes and inoculation methods.

The potential of a fluorescent-based approach for bioassay of antifungal agents against chili anthracnose disease in Thailand.

Severe chili anthracnose disease in Thailand is caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and C. capsici. To discover anti-anthracnose substances we developed an efficient dual-fluorescent labeling bioassay based on a microdilution approach.

Differential Reactions on Mature Green and Ripe Chili Fruit Infected by Three Colletotrichum spp.

Differential reactions on mature green and ripe chili fruit of 10 genotypes from four cultivated Capsicum spp. (i.e.

Distribution and occurrence of myxomycetes on agricultural ground litter and forest floor litter in Thailand.

The ecological distribution and seasonal patterns of occurrence of myxomycetes associated with the microhabitats represented by agricultural ground litter and forest floor litter were investigated in six study sites in northern Thailand during Oct 2004-Oct 2005. Both specimens that developed under natural conditions in the field and specimens obtained in moist chamber cultures were considered. Agricultural study sites were a banana plantation, a mango orchard and a sweet corn farm, whereas forest study sites consisted of a lowland forest, a midelevation forest and a highland forest.
