Enhanced Control of Powdery Mildew of Greenhouse Roses using Piperalin Tank-mixed with Quaternary Benzophenanthridine Alkaloids

The formation of benzophenanthridine alkaloids

Isoquinoline alkaloids are a major group of pharmacologically important compounds. The universal precursor to the majority of this alkaloid class is (S)-reticuline. The biosynthesis of this important intermediate starting from the primary metabolite, Ltyrosine, has been completely solved at the enzyme level. One of the most diverse structures in the class of isoquinoline alkaloids are the benzo...

An Arabidopsis mutant with enhanced resistance to powdery mildew.

We have identified an Arabidopsis mutant that displays enhanced disease resistance to the fungus Erysiphe cichoracearum, causal agent of powdery mildew. The edr1 mutant does not constitutively express the pathogenesis-related genes PR-1, BGL2, or PR-5 and thus differs from previously described disease-resistant mutants of Arabidopsis. E. cichoracearum conidia (asexual spores) germinated normall...

Fungi Associated With the Powdery Mildew of Buxus Trees in Gorgan Landscape

In this research,for taxonomic studies and identification of the fungi associated with the powdery mildew(Oidium euonymi- japonici) of Buxus trees (Euonymus japonica), the infected leaves were collected during autumn and winter 2012-2013 in Gorgan (Golestan province -Iran). The samples after washing and surface sterilizing, were cultured on PDA medium(with boxwood extract).Then based on availab...
