Detection of Leptosphaeria maculans and Leptosphaeria biglobosa Causing Blackleg Disease in Canola from Canadian Canola Seed Lots and Dockage.
Blackleg, caused by Leptosphaeria maculans, is a major threat to canola production in Canada. With the exception of China, L. maculans is present in areas around the world where cruciferous crops are grown. The pathogen can cause trade barriers in international canola seed export due to its potential risk as a seed contaminant. The most recent example is China restricting canola seeds imported ...
متن کاملInduced Resistance to Blackleg (Leptosphaeria maculans) Disease of Canola (Brassica napus) Caused by a Weakly Virulent Isolate of Leptosphaeria biglobosa
Canola (Brassica napus L.) is the second largest cash crop in Canada (4). Blackleg disease, caused by Leptosphaeria maculans (Desmaz.) Ces. & De Not. (anamorph = Phoma lingam (Tode:Fr.) Desmaz.), is one of most economically important diseases of canola (21). In the past decade, canola production has expanded significantly worldwide and interest in the blackleg fungus, particularly its biology, ...
متن کاملThe potential role of apoptosis in the host-parasite interaction of Leptosphaeria maculans with Brassica napus
The fungus Leptosphaeria maculans (Phoma or blackleg disease) causes lesions on leaf, stem and crown tissue of oilseed rape (Brassica napus). It is similar to many other necrotrophic fungi that rely on plant cell death for growth and reproduction. Recent published evidence supports the theory that some, if not all, necrotrophic bacteria and fungi stimulate apoptosis as a prerequisite for infect...
متن کاملGenomes and Transcriptomes of Partners in Plant-Fungal- Interactions between Canola (Brassica napus) and Two Leptosphaeria Species
Leptosphaeria maculans 'brassicae' is a damaging fungal pathogen of canola (Brassica napus), causing lesions on cotyledons and leaves, and cankers on the lower stem. A related species, L. biglobosa 'canadensis', colonises cotyledons but causes few stem cankers. We describe the complement of genes encoding carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZys) and peptidases of these fungi, as well as of four rela...
متن کاملEffector diversification within compartments of the Leptosphaeria maculans genome affected by Repeat-Induced Point mutations
Fungi are of primary ecological, biotechnological and economic importance. Many fundamental biological processes that are shared by animals and fungi are studied in fungi due to their experimental tractability. Many fungi are pathogens or mutualists and are model systems to analyse effector genes and their mechanisms of diversification. In this study, we report the genome sequence of the phytop...
