Evaluation of Lysobacter enzymogenes C3 for control of soybean fungal diseases
Fungal and oomycete diseases can cause severe yield losses on soybean. These losses are typically managed by planting resistant cultivars, utilizing good cultural practices, and applying fungicides. However, because these methods rarely achieve complete control and demand is increasing for more …

Immunological evaluation of HIV-negative invasive fungal disease at Groote Schuur Hospital, Cape Town, South Africa
Background The majority of invasive fungal disease in South African hospitals is HIV-related or associated with another secondary immunodeficiency e.g. haematopoietic stem cell transplant. After excluding secondary immunodeficiency, a detailed immune work-up can lead to a diagnosis of primary …

Molecular mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) for Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance and agronomic traits in US hard winter wheat
… head blight (FHB) is one of the devastating fungal diseases in wheat and results in dramatic losses in grain yield and quality. Use of genetic resistance is an effective approach to FHB control, but highly FHB resistant germplasms usually have many undesirable agronomic traits. To dissect the …

Genomic, transcriptomic, and metagenomic approaches for detecting fungal plant pathogens and investigating the molecular basis of fungal ice nucleation activity
… infect plants and cause economically important diseases. However, many fungal pathogens cause similar symptoms or are even spread asymptomatically, making it difficult to identify them morphologically. Therefore, culture-independent, sequence-based diagnostic methods that can detect and identify …

Characterization and protein fingerprinting of Botrytis cinerea isolates /
Botrytis cinerea isolates collected from Niagara region were treated with different concentrations of the fiingicide, iprodione to test their sensitivity to this fungicide. These Botrytis cinerea isolates were divided into two groups according to their sensitivity to iprodione. Those isolates whose …
