Interactions of Root-Feeding Insects with Fungal and Oomycete Plant Pathogens
Soilborne fungal and oomycete pathogens are the causal agents of several important plant diseases. Infection frequently co-occurs with herbivory by root-feeding insects, facilitating tripartite interactions that modify plant performance and mortality. In an agricultural context, interactions between pathogens, herbivores, and plants can have important consequences for yield protection. However,...
متن کاملNitric Oxide in the Offensive Strategy of Fungal and Oomycete Plant Pathogens
In the course of evolutionary changes pathogens have developed many invasion strategies, to which the host organisms responded with a broad range of defense reactions involving endogenous signaling molecules, such as nitric oxide (NO). There is evidence that pathogenic microorganisms, including two most important groups of eukaryotic plant pathogens, also acquired the ability to synthesize NO v...
متن کاملVector-Borne Bacterial Plant Pathogens: Interactions with Hemipteran Insects and Plants
Hemipteran insects are devastating pests of crops due to their wide host range, rapid reproduction, and ability to transmit numerous plant-infecting pathogens as vectors. While the field of plant-virus-vector interactions has flourished in recent years, plant-bacteria-vector interactions remain poorly understood. Leafhoppers and psyllids are by far the most important vectors of bacterial pathog...
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 کاملFungal Pathogens of Insects: Cuticle Degrading Enzymes and Toxins
Pathogenic fungi are important natural regulators of insect populations. However, many attempts to harness their potential for pest control have met with comparatively minor commercial success. Studies on mechanisms of pathogenesis have yet to contribute to the development of more efficient mycoinsecticides, but new insights into the pathogenic process are laying the groundwork. Significant pro...
