Revolutionizing food safety with electrochemical biosensors for rapid and portable pathogen detection
Foodborne diseases remain a worldwide concern, despite the advances made in sanitation, pathogen surveillance and food safety management systems. The...

ScAnalyzer: an image processing tool to monitor plant disease symptoms and pathogen spread in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves
BackgroundPlants are known to be infected by a wide range of pathogenic microbes. To study plant diseases caused by microbes, it is imperative to be...

Rapid detection and quantification of Aphanomyces cochlioides in sugar beet
Sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris L.) is an economically important crop in temperate climates providing nearly 30% of sugar production worldwide. The...

ADARs regulate cuticle collagen expression and promote survival to pathogen infection
BackgroundIn all organisms, the innate immune system defends against pathogens through basal expression of molecules that provide critical barriers...
-
Crop microbiome responses to pathogen colonisation regulate the host plant defence
AimsSoil-borne pathogens severely damage the yield and quality of crops worldwide. Plant and soil microbiomes (e.g. in the rhizosphere) intimately...

Selective Quantification of Chemotropic Responses of Fusarium graminearum
Chemotropism refers to the directional growth of a living organism toward a chemical stimulus. Molecular mechanisms underlying chemotropism of fungal...

The Potential of Systems Biology to Understand the Tenets of Host-pathogen Interaction, Toxicology, and Aging
This chapter highlights the potential of systems biology in elucidating the fundamental principles underlying host-pathogen interaction, toxicology,...
-
Proximity ligation assay: an ultrasensitive method for protein quantification and its applications in pathogen detection
AbstractIt is of great significance to establish sensitive and accurate pathogen detection methods, considering the continuous emergence or...
-
Molecular Basis of Host–Pathogen Interaction: An Overview
The concept of plant–pathogen interaction involves individual pathways for effective defense and successful colonization. The early detection of...

Variation in the Outcome of Plant-Mediated Pathogen Interactions in Potato: Effects of Initial Infections on Conspecific vs. Heterospecific Subsequent Infections
Plants are often attacked sequentially by multiple enemies. Pathogen sequential co-infections can lead to indirect interactions mediated by plant...

Comprehensive biochemical approach for understanding the interaction between host “common bean” and pathogen “Colletotrichum lindemuthianum” causing bean anthracnose
Anthracnose (ANT) caused by Colletotrichum lindemuthianum is the most devastating seed-borne fungal disease of common bean. In response to fungal...

Pathogen-derived mechanical cues potentiate the spatio-temporal implementation of plant defense
BackgroundThe ongoing adaptation of plants to their environment is the basis for their survival. In this adaptation, mechanoperception of gravity and...

Dissection of a sensorimotor circuit underlying pathogen aversion in C. elegans
BackgroundAltering animal behavior to reduce pathogen exposure is a key line of defense against pathogen attack. In Caenorhabditis elegans ,...

Black scurf of potato: Insights into biology, diagnosis, detection, host-pathogen interaction, and management strategies
Black scurf/stem canker disease, caused by the basidiomycetous fungus Rhizoctonia solani Kühn, became one of the major constraints to potato...

Pathogen lifestyle determines host genetic signature of quantitative disease resistance loci in oilseed rape (Brassica napus)
Key messageUsing associative transcriptomics, our study identifies genes conferring resistance to four diverse fungal pathogens in crops, emphasizing...
-
Cooperative virulence via the collective action of secreted pathogen effectors
Although virulence is typically attributed to single pathogenic strains, here we investigated whether effectors secreted by a population of...
-
Colonic phosphocholine is correlated with Candida tropicalis and promotes diarrhea and pathogen clearance
Diarrhea is characterized by alterations in the gut microbiota, metabolites, and host response to these changes. Studies have focused on the role of...

Detection and Quantification of Cryptococcus Uptake by Phagocytic Cells Using Imaging Flow Cytometry
Cryptococcus neoformans, the predominant etiological agent of cryptococcosis, is an encapsulated fungal pathogen found ubiquitously in the...
-
Small changes in rhizosphere microbiome composition predict disease outcomes earlier than pathogen density variations
Even in homogeneous conditions, plants facing a soilborne pathogen tend to show a binary outcome with individuals either remaining fully healthy or...

Transcriptomic investigation of the interaction between a biocontrol yeast, Papiliotrema terrestris strain PT22AV, and the postharvest fungal pathogen Penicillium expansum on apple
Biocontrol strategies offer a promising alternative to control plant pathogens achieving food safety and security. In this study we apply a RNAseq...
