Atradidymella muscivora gen. et sp. nov. (Pleosporales) and its anamorph Phoma muscivora sp. nov.: A new pleomorphic pathogen of boreal bryophytes
Download2009
During a survey of bryophilous fungi from boreal and montane habitats, 12 isolates of a hitherto unknown plant pathogenic member of the Pleosporales were recovered from Aulacomnium palustre , Hylocomium splendens , and Polytrichum juniperinum , and described as Atradidymella muscivora gen. et sp....

Generation of a restriction minus enteropathogenic Escherichia coli E2348/69 strain that is efficiently transformed with large, low copy plasmids
Download2008
Raivio, T.L., Price, N.L., Ward, J.D., Hobson, N.
Background Many microbes possess restriction-modification systems that protect them from parasitic DNA molecules. Unfortunately, the presence of a restriction-modification system in a given microbe also hampers genetic analysis. Although plasmids can be successfully conjugated into the...

The LmSNF1 gene is required for pathogenicity in the canola blackleg pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans
Download2014
Zhang, Hui, Strelkov, Stephen E., Feng, Jie, Hwang, Sheau-Fang
Leptosphaeria maculans is a fungal pathogen causing blackleg in canola. Its virulence has been attributed, among other factors, to the activity of hydrolytic cell wall degrading enzymes (CWDEs). Studies on the pathogenicity function of CWDEs in plant pathogenic fungi have been difficult due to...
