چکیده
Powdery mildew-infected rainforest spinach (Elatostema reticulatum) plants were found in Queensland, Australia. Based on morphology and nrDNA ITS sequence analyses, the pathogen was identified as Podosphaera xanthii, a powdery mildew species with worldwide distribution broad host range. This is first record of P. xanthii infecting E. reticulatum, infection recorded for this native Australian plant.

Factors Affecting Airborne Concentrations of Podosphaera xanthii Conidia and Severity of Gerbera Powdery Mildew
To determine the factors affecting airborne conidial concentrations of Podosphaera xanthii Braun and Shishkoff and powdery mildew severity in greenhouse-grown potted gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii H. Bolus), airborne concentrations of conidia were monitored in a glass and polyethylene greenhouse. Temperature, relative humidity, and leaf wetness were recorded onsite, and the percentage of foliage wi...
متن کاملThe Podosphaera xanthii haustorium, the fungal Trojan horse of cucurbit-powdery mildew interactions.
The powdery mildew fungi are obligate biotrophic plant pathogens that develop a specialized structure for parasitism termed haustorium, which is responsible for nutrient uptake and factor exchange with the plant. In this work, we present a detailed microscopy analysis of the haustoria of the cucurbit powdery mildew fungus Podosphaera xanthii, a major limiting factor for cucurbit production worl...

Physiological races of powdery mildew (Podosphaera xanthii) cause different symptoms in eight melon lines. Infection by races 1, 2, and 5 was examined in different melon lines. After a compatible reaction, conidia germination, haustorium initiation from the germ tube, germ tube branching, and sporulation occurred within 12, 24, 48, and 120 h, respectively, and the conidia matured within 240 h. ...

Epiphytic yeasts, which colonize plant surfaces, may possess activity that can be harnessed to help plants defend themselves against various pathogens. Due to their unique characteristics, epiphytic yeasts belonging to the genus Pseudozyma hold great potential for use as biocontrol agents. We identified a unique, biologically active isolate of the epiphytic yeast Pseudozyma aphidis that is capa...
