Identification of 18 genes encoding necrosis-inducing proteins from the plant pathogen Phytophthora capsici (Pythiaceae: Oomycetes).
Phytophthora capsici is an aggressive plant pathogen that affects solanaceous and cucurbitaceous hosts. Necrosis-inducing Phytophthora proteins (NPPs) are a group of secreted toxins found particularly in oomycetes. Several NPPs from Phytophthora species trigger plant cell death and activate host defense gene expression. We isolated 18 P. capsici NPP genes, of which 12 were active during hypha g...
متن کاملCharacterization of cell death inducing Phytophthora capsici CRN effectors suggests diverse activities in the host nucleus
Plant-Microbe interactions are complex associations that feature recognition of Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns by the plant immune system and dampening of subsequent responses by pathogen encoded secreted effectors. With large effector repertoires now identified in a range of sequenced microbial genomes, much attention centers on understanding their roles in immunity or disease. These s...
متن کاملInterspecific hybridization and apomixis between Phytophthora capsici and Phytophthora tropicalis.
Phytophthora capsici and the closely related Phytophthora tropicalis infect different hosts that have documented overlapping geographical distributions. Phytophthora capsici attacks annual vegetable hosts whereas P. tropicalis has been recovered from woody perennial hosts. Our objective was to test whether interspecific hybridization is possible and to characterize the resulting progeny. Crosse...
متن کاملThermal inactivation of Phytophthora capsici oospores.
BACKGROUND Phytophthora capsici is a major fungal plant pathogen that causes root and crown rot of pepper crops and its oospores are the most resistant propagules. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of different temperature regimes and exposure times on the survival of P. capsici oospores. METHODS Thermal inactivation treatments simulated field conditions, through the use of different consta...
متن کاملSurvival and spread of Phytophthora capsici in Coastal Peru.
Phytophthora capsici is a soilborne pathogen that causes significant losses to pepper production in Peru. Our objective was to investigate the mechanisms by which P. capsici is able to survive and spread. During 2005 to 2007, 227 isolates of P. capsici were collected from four species of pepper (Capsicum annum, C. baccatum, C. chinense, and C. pubescens) and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) at 33 ...
