Diagnosis of plant viral pathogens
In the last ten years there has been an explosion in plant virus outbreaks, because of either direct or indirect activities of humans. The ease of transporting plant materials and virus vectors, and collecting relatives of crop plants from the wild, has spread viruses widely throughout the world. The most important step in managing a virus disease is correct identification. Tests for diagnosis ...
متن کاملSaponins versus plant fungal pathogens
The production of low-molecular-weight antimicrobial molecules within plants is one component of defense against pathogens. Among them, preformed antimicrobial compounds (phytoanticipins) are the first biochemical barriers against pathogens. Saponins (a group of phytoanticipins) are present constitutively in plants and play important roles in plant defense. A variety of biological roles have be...
متن کاملNetwork Analyses in Plant Pathogens
Even in the age of big data in Biology, studying the connections between the biological processes and the molecular mechanisms behind them is a challenging task. Systems biology arose as a transversal discipline between biology, chemistry, computer science, mathematics, and physics to facilitate the elucidation of such connections. A scenario, where the application of systems biology constitute...
متن کاملBiological Control of Plant Pathogens
Plant diseases need to be controlled to maintain the quality and abundance of food, feed, and fiber produced by growers around the world. Different approaches may be used to prevent, mitigate or control plant diseases. Beyond good agronomic and horticultural practices, growers often rely heavily on chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Such inputs to agriculture have contributed significantly to...
متن کاملPlant pathogens: how can molecular genetic information on plant pathogens assist in breeding disease resistant crops
Numerous phytopathogenic fungi and Oomycete species cause disease on crop plants. Over the past 17 years a combination of protein purification and forward and reverse genetics has lead to the identification of > 150 distinct pathogenicity and virulence genes required by pathogens to cause disease. Many conserved molecular mechanisms are now recognised that underpin the pathogenesis of very dive...
