Draft genome sequence of Cercospora sojina isolate S9, a fungus causing frogeye leaf spot (FLS) disease of soybean

Fungi are the causal agents of many of the world's most serious plant diseases causing disastrous consequences for large-scale agricultural production. Pathogenicity genomic basis is complex in fungi as multicellular eukaryotic pathogens. The fungus Cercospora sojina is a plant pathogen that threatens global soybean supplies. Here, we report the genome sequence of C. sojina strain S9 and detect...

Bacterial Leaf Spot of Alfalfa '

The bacterial leaf spot described here was first recognized on Turkestan and Grimm alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) in two locations at Madison, Wis., in August 1930. The alfalfa in both instances was in cultivated experimental rows and had been repeatedly splashed bywatering with a garden hose. In October 1931 the disease recurred under similar circumstances at one of these locations, but with the...

Mycosphaerella leaf spot diseases

By the end of the 1980s, black leaf streak disease caused by Mycosphaerella fijiensis was present in all continents where bananas or plantains were grown, although distribution in some regions was limited to a few countries. In this presentation, the spread of the disease during the 1990s in several countries and regions, and the important socio-economic consequences are discussed. From 1990 to...

An Investigation of Apple Chlorotic Leaf Spot (ACLSV) and Tomato Ring Spot (ToRSV) in Some Iranian Pear Gardens

Background and Aims: In spite of a long tradition of fruit-tree growing in all provinces of Iran, information on pear (Pyrus communis) tree viruses is scant. In order to identify of the nature of the virus like symptoms and decline in pear trees, we carried out a survey for the occurrence of four important viruses. Materials and Methods: Leaf samples of pear showing virus like symptoms wer...
