Under less Pythium spp.) favorable weather, infected plants exhibit stunting and creamy yellow leaves. Symptoms: Damping-off disease affects young plants during or after emergence. The causal fungus The pathogen is an obligate parasite that over invades the seed, emerging root, or stem and will seasons in spinach, spinach seed, and through sexual rapidly rot the plant. Emerged plants are often spores in the soil. At least three races of this pathogen invaded at the soil line where a maroon to are known to exist. Preferred weather for fungal reddish-brown lesion (Rhizoctonia) will develop that reproduction is between 45-59° F. Infection requires girdles the stem and causes a seedling to wilt to death. a wet leaf surface. Pythium causes a soft lower stem decay that may be greasy-black in color.

Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control (2021) 31:47 Egyptian Journal of https://doi.org/10.1186/s41938-021-00395-5 Biological Pest Control RESEARCH Open Access Effect of the native strain of the predator Nesidiocoris tenuis Reuter and the entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana and Lecanicillium muscarium against Bemisia tabaci (Genn.) under greenhouse conditions in Tunisia Besma Hamrouni Assadi1*, Sabrine Chouikhi1, Refki Ettaib1, Naima Boughalleb M’hamdi2 and Mohamed Sadok Belkadhi1 Abstract Background: The misuse of chemical insecticides has developed the phenomenon of habituation in the whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) causing enormous economic losses under geothermal greenhouses in southern Tunisia. Results: In order to develop means of biological control appropriate to the conditions of southern Tunisia, the efficacy of the native strain of the predator Nesidiocoris tenuis Reuter (Hemiptera: Miridae) and two entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) Beauveria bassiana and Lecanicillium muscarium was tested against Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius). Indeed, the introduction of N. tenuis in doses of 1, 2, 3, or 4 nymphs per tobacco plant infested by the whitefly led to highly significant reduction in the population of B. tabaci, than the control devoid of predator. The efficacy of N. tenuis was very high against nymphs and adults of B. tabaci at all doses per plant with a rate of 98%. Likewise, B. bassiana and L. muscarium, compared to an untreated control, showed a very significant efficacy against larvae and adults of B. tabaci. In addition, the number of live nymphs of N. tenuis treated directly or introduced on nymphs of B. tabaci treated with the EPF remained relatively high, exceeding 24.8 nymphs per cage compared to the control (28.6). -
The Mitochondrial Genome of the Grape Powdery Mildew Pathogen Erysiphe Necator Is Intron Rich and Exhibits a Distinct Gene Organization Alex Z
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The mitochondrial genome of the grape powdery mildew pathogen Erysiphe necator is intron rich and exhibits a distinct gene organization Alex Z. Zaccaron1, Jorge T. De Souza1,2 & Ioannis Stergiopoulos1* Powdery mildews are notorious fungal plant pathogens but only limited information exists on their genomes. Here we present the mitochondrial genome of the grape powdery mildew fungus Erysiphe necator and a high-quality mitochondrial gene annotation generated through cloning and Sanger sequencing of full-length cDNA clones. The E. necator mitochondrial genome consists of a circular DNA sequence of 188,577 bp that harbors a core set of 14 protein-coding genes that are typically present in fungal mitochondrial genomes, along with genes encoding the small and large ribosomal subunits, a ribosomal protein S3, and 25 mitochondrial-encoded transfer RNAs (mt-tRNAs). Interestingly, it also exhibits a distinct gene organization with atypical bicistronic-like expression of the nad4L/nad5 and atp6/nad3 gene pairs, and contains a large number of 70 introns, making it one of the richest in introns mitochondrial genomes among fungi. Sixty-four intronic ORFs were also found, most of which encoded homing endonucleases of the LAGLIDADG or GIY-YIG families. Further comparative analysis of fve E. necator isolates revealed 203 polymorphic sites, but only fve were located within exons of the core mitochondrial genes. These results provide insights into the organization of mitochondrial genomes of powdery mildews and represent valuable resources for population genetic and evolutionary studies. Erysiphe necator (syn. Uncinula necator) is an obligate biotrophic ascomycete fungus that belongs to the Ery- siphaceae family (Leotiomycetes; Erysiphales) and causes grape powdery mildew, one of the most widespread and destructive fungal diseases in vineyards across the world1. -
Fungi and Their Potential As Biological Control Agents of Beech Bark Disease
Fungi and their potential as biological control agents of Beech Bark Disease By Sarah Elizabeth Thomas A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Biological Sciences Royal Holloway, University of London 2014 1 DECLARATION OF AUTHORSHIP I, Sarah Elizabeth Thomas, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: _____________ Date: 4th May 2014 2 ABSTRACT Beech bark disease (BBD) is an invasive insect and pathogen disease complex that is currently devastating American beech (Fagus grandifolia) in North America. The disease complex consists of the sap-sucking scale insect, Cryptococcus fagisuga and sequential attack by Neonectria fungi (principally Neonectria faginata). The scale insect is not native to North America and is thought to have been introduced there on seedlings of F. sylvatica from Europe. Conventional control strategies are of limited efficacy in forestry systems and removal of heavily infested trees is the only successful method to reduce the spread of the disease. However, an alternative strategy could be the use of biological control, using fungi. Fungal endophytes and/or entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) could have potential for both the insect and fungal components of this highly invasive disease. Over 600 endophytes were isolated from healthy stems of F. sylvatica and 13 EPF were isolated from C. fagisuga cadavers in its centre of origin. A selection of these isolates was screened in vitro for their suitability as biological control agents. Two Beauveria and two Lecanicillium isolates were assessed for their suitability as biological control agents for C. -

Banks,a* Farhana Aminuddin,a Katherine Williams,a Thomas Batstone,a Gary L. A. Barker,a Gary D. Foster,a Andy M. Baileya aSchool of Biological Sciences, University of Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom ABSTRACT The fungus Lecanicillium fungicola causes dry bubble disease in the http://mra.asm.org/ white button mushroom Agaricus bisporus. Control strategies are limited, as both the host and pathogen are fungi, and there is limited understanding of the interac- tions in this pathosystem. Here, we present the genome sequence of Lecanicillium fungicola strain 150-1. ecanicillium fungicola (Preuss) Zare & Gams [synonym: Verticillium fungicola (Preuss) LHassebrauk] (1), an ascomycete fungus of the order Hypocreales, is the causal agent of dry bubble disease of the white button mushroom Agaricus bisporus, as well as of on September 18, 2020 at Imperial College London other commercially cultivated basidiomycetes (2). Dry bubble disease presents symp- toms that include necrotic lesions on mushroom caps, stipe blowout, and undifferen- tiated tissue masses (2). Some factors involved in this interaction have been proposed based on suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) and expressed sequence tag (EST) data (3). This disease is of economic importance, causing significant yield/quality losses in the mushroom industry (4). Control methods rely on rigorous hygiene procedures and targeted fungicide treatments; however, increased resistance against these fungi- cides has been reported (5, 6). Recent taxonomic revisions place L. fungicola close to several arthropod- and nematode-pathogenic fungi rather than to plant-pathogenic Verticillium spp. -

There are multiple available classification 12 systems that all suffer from differences in naming, incompleteness, presence of multiple non- 13 monophyletic entities and poor correspondence of divergence times. These issues render 14 taxonomic comparisons across the main groups of eukaryotes and all life in general difficult 15 at best. By using the monophyly criterion, roughly comparable time of divergence and 16 information from multiple phylogenetic reconstructions, I propose an alternative 17 classification system for the domain Eukarya to improve hierarchical taxonomical 18 comparability for animals, plants, fungi and multiple protist groups. Following this rationale, 19 I propose 32 kingdoms of eukaryotes that are treated in 10 subdomains. These kingdoms are 20 further separated into 43, 115, 140 and 353 taxa at the level of subkingdom, phylum, 21 subphylum and class, respectively (http://dx.doi.org/10.15156/BIO/587483). -
