Omic-enabled Dectection and Studies of <i>Phytophthora capsici</i> in the Field
<i>Phytophthora capsici</i> is a devastating pathogen capable of infecting important crops worldwide. Disease in the field can lead to eradication of crops and large financial losses if left untreated. Current diagnosis of the pathogen from the field is time consuming, difficult and requires highly …

Identification and characterisation of phytophthora capsici CRN effector proteins and their targets in planta
… to benefit the pathogen. This is true for Phytophthora capsici an oomycete pathogen of many important crops including tomato and cucumber.<br/>We identified and characterised CRN effectors in P. capsici. With 84 putative effectors composed of 29 different effector domains, the CRNs form a …

Identification of <i>Phytophthora capsici</i> nuclear effector targets to bolster host immune signalling and resistance pathways
Phytophthora capsici is a plant pathogenic oomycete that causes huge damage to agriculture worldwide. Its virulence is driven by effectors, which target various host cell components in order to suppress plant immune responses. To enhance plant immunity and to generate new resistances in crops, it …

Effectiveness of mustard short-cycle cover crops for management of Phytophthora capsici and Fusarium spp. in cucurbits
… and Sinapis alba L. ‘Tilney’ for management of Phytophthora capsici and Fusarium spp. in cucurbits. To accomplish this goal laboratory, greenhouse, and field studies were conducted during 2008-2010. In the laboratory studies, mustard extracts were tested for inhibition of colony growth, …

Unveiling and exploiting <i>Phytophthora capsici</i> effectors and their host targets, with an emphasis on CRN effector proteins
Phytophthora capsici is a devastating plant pathogen for which virulence is aided by the secretion of effectors, including cytoplasmic effectors from the CRN (CRinkling and Necrosis) family.<br/><br/>CRN effectors were first described in oomycetes by their capacity to induce host cell death. …

Laboratory and field evaluation of efficacy of potential fungicides for managing phytophthora blight (Phytophthora capsici) of processing pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata)
Phytophthora blight, caused by the oomycete Phytophthora capsici Leonian, is a destructive disease that severely limits the production of processing pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Duchesne). This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the potential eight fungicides or their combinations …

Advancing detection, genomics, and secretome analysis of oomycete pathogens Phytophthora capsici and Phytopythium vexans to explore mechanisms of pathogenesis and biocontrol solutions
… systems, particularly in Ontario, Canada, where Phytophthora capsici and the recently reported Phytopythium vexans have emerged as significant threats. Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying their pathogenicity is critical for developing informed, site-specific disease management …

Insights into the structures and dynamics of the pathogen secreted effectors AVR3A11 and tarp through the application of NMR spectroscopy
… is an 8 kDa e�ector from the pepper pathogen Phytophthora capsici that has been shown to inhibit plant programmed cell death. Using a combination of 2D and 3D NMR experiments I have assigned the majority of the backbone and side-chain resonances from the structured regions of AVR3a11. Through …

The Impact of Iron Deficiency on Plant-Oomycete Interactions
… pathogens Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis, and Phytophthora capsici grew less well on iron-deficient Arabidopsis thaliana, at least in part because of observed activation of immunity due to iron stress. We screened A. thaliana T-DNA insertion mutants defective in iron metabolism and transport …

NOVEL PERSPECTIVES IN THE CONTROL OF PLANT PATHOGENIC OOMYCETES
… and infection by important oomycetes such as Phytophthora infestans, Phytophthora capsici, Pythium ultimum, and Plasmopara viticola. An innovative protocol combining flow cytometry and cell sorting was successfully designed and employed to analyze the composition and efficiency of the …

The Role of Phytophthora Secreted Effectors in Determining Pathogen Host Range
… responses of Nicotianae sylvestris against Phytophthora capsici and P. infestans. Schulze-Lefert and Panstruga (2011) proposed that the inability of a pathogen to establish infection in nonhost plants could be a feature of the phylogenetic distance between host and nonhost plants. In …
