Forests are potential habitats for immense terrestrial ecosystems and aquatic biodiversity,
performing an essential role in ecological preservation and regulation of climate. The …

Carotenoids are essential for photosynthesis and photoprotection. Plants must evolve
multifaceted regulatory mechanisms to control carotenoid biosynthesis. However, the …

Cell death-inducing proteins (CDIPs) are some of the secreted effector proteins manifested
by filamentous oomycetes and fungal pathogens to invade the plant tissue and facilitate …

The co-evolutionary struggle between plants and pathogens shapes vital defense
mechanisms crucial for survival. AvrM14 selectively removes the 5′ cap from mRNA …

In the coevolutionary arms race between pathogens and their hosts, an array of weapons
has been assembled by both combatants. Plants have evolved a diverse set of innate …

From the 1950s to the present, the main tool for obtaining fungal industrial producers of
secondary metabolites remains the so-called classical strain improvement (CSI) methods …

Fusarium wilt in eggplant caused by F. oxysporum f. sp. melongenae is a major devastating
soil-borne disease on a worldwide scale. Effectors play important roles in the interactions in …

The wild Lepista sordida is a kind of precious and rare edible fungus. An excellent strain of it
by artificial domestication was obtained, which was high-yield and high in iron content. In …

This paper discusses the mechanisms by which fungi manipulate plant physiology and
suppress plant defense responses by producing effectors that can target various host …
