The pepper accession Criollo de Morelos 334 is the most efficient source of resistance currently known to Phytophthora capsici and P. parasitica. To investigate whether genetic controls of resistance to two Phytophthora species are independent, we compared the genetic architecture of resistance of CM334 to both Phytophthora species. The RIL population F5YC used to construct the high-resolution genetic linkage map of pepper was assessed for resistance to one isolate of each Phytophthora species. Inheritance of the P. capsici and P. parasitica resistance was polygenic. Twelve additive QTLs involved in the P. capsici resistance and 14 additive QTLs involved in the P. parasitica resistance were detected. The QTLs identified in this progeny were specific to these Phytophthora species. Comparative mapping analysis with literature data identified three colocations between resistance QTLs to P. parasitica and P. capsici in pepper. Whereas this result suggests presence of common resistance factors to the two Phytophthora species in pepper, which possibly derive from common ancestral genes, calculation of the colocation probability indicates that these colocations could occur by chance.

Globally, forests are constantly threatened by a plethora of disturbances of natural and anthropogenic origin, such as climate change, forest fires, urbanization, and pollution. Besides the most common stressors, during the last few years, Portuguese forests have been impacted by severe decline phenomena caused by invasive pathogens, many of which belong to the genus . The genus includes a large number of species that are invading forest ecosystems worldwide, chiefly as a consequence of global trade and human activities.

We examined the evolutionary history of Phytophthora infestans and its close relatives in the 1c clade. We used whole genome sequence data from 69 isolates of Phytophthora species in the 1c clade and conducted a range of genomic analyses including nucleotide diversity evaluation, maximum likelihood trees, network assessment, time to most recent common ancestor and migration analysis. We consistently identified distinct and later divergence of the two Mexican Phytophthora species, P.

Wheat leaf rust caused by () is a prevalent disease worldwide, seriously threatening wheat production. acquires nutrients from host cells via haustoria and secretes effector proteins to modify and regulate the expression of host disease resistance genes, thereby facilitating pathogen growth and reproduction. The study of effector proteins is of great significance for clarifying the pathogenic mechanisms of and effective control of leaf rust.

Evidence of unintended introductions of species into native habitats has become increasingly prevalent in California. If not managed adequately, species can become devastating agricultural and forest plant pathogens. Additionally, California's natural areas, characterized by a Mediterranean climate and dominated by chaparral (evergreen, drought-tolerant shrubs) and oak woodlands, lack sufficient baseline knowledge on biology and ecology, hindering effective management efforts.
