Genomic Evolution in the Oomycetes
Members of the oomycete class include some of the most devastating pathogens of plants and animals. Oomycetes secrete large arsenals of effector proteins that perform a wide range of functions, including sequestering nutrients from hosts and the environment, degrading host cells to facilitate …

Protomyces Comparative Genomics and Modulation of Arabidopsis Immunity
The plant phyllosphere environment offers a habitat for multiple kinds of microbes, including bacteria, fungi, yeast, etc. Microbes can be beneficial, pathogenic, or mostly neutral to plants. Increasingly the interaction patterns and related plant immunity signaling pathways against bacteria and …

A tale of two clades: genome evolution of oomycetes and fungi.
Some of the most ecologically-significant pathogens of plants, animals and marine life come from two groups of filamentous eukaryotes; the oomycetes and the fungi. Although similar in morphology and ecological niche, the two groups are only very-distantly related in terms of evolutionary history. …

Molecular studies on the taxonomy, host-associations and viruses of the Diplodia-like anamorphs of the Botryosphaeriaceae
The Botryosphaeriaceae is a family of fungi that includes many species, which are well-known as pathogens, saprophytes and endophytes of plants and especially of trees. As a result of their pathogenic nature and potential threat to plantations and agricultural crops, much research has been devoted …
