sugar beet roots and attached soil are usually transferred to sugar factories for processing ,then the roots are washed by pressurized water. muddy water as waste flows in canal and is used to irrigate fields. the possibility of occurrence and fluctuations of the pathogenic organisms in waste were studied in 2005. the samples were collected from waste water once a week. isolation of pathogens w...

BACKGROUND Avirulent pathogens elicit a battery of plant defenses, often accompanied by collapse of the challenged cells. In soybean cells, sustained accumulation of H2O2 from an oxidative burst cues localized host cell death. Such hypersensitive cell death appears to be an active process, but little is known about the mechanisms underlying cellular collapse. RESULTS We show that H2O2 stimula...

Phytophthora borealis and Phytophthora riparia, identified in recent Phytophthora surveys of forest streams in Oregon, California and Alaska, are described as new species in Phytophthora ITS Clade 6. They are similar in growth form and morphology to P. gonapodyides and are predominantly sterile. They present unique DNA sequences, however, and differ in temperature/growth relations and geographi...

Phytophthora nicotianae is one of the most destructive plant pathogens affecting a variety of plants, causing black shank of tobacco, among several other devastating diseases. Herein, we assembled the mitochondrial genome of P. nicotianae and analyzed its gene content and genome structure, performed comparative mitochondrial genomics analysis, and assessed phylogenetic relationships among oomyc...
