Powdery mildew (PM) is a major disease affecting bitter gourd cultivation, and resolving the molecular regulatory mechanisms underlying PM resistance is important for bitter gourd molecular breeding for resistance. In this study, morphological and mo...

Shanxi Province, located in northern China, characterized by a warm-temperate monsoon climate, complex mountainous topography, and vegetation dominated by trees of Fagaceae and Pinaceae, provides diverse habitats for Russula diversity. Recent investi...

Erysiphe corylacearum, the causal agent of powdery mildew in hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.), has become an emerging pathogen of concern in Italian hazelnut production requiring rapid and accurate detection to support timely disease management and phy...

Endophyte fungi (EF) are considered a new and valuable reservoir of bioactive molecules of biotechnological interest for pharmacy, agricultural and forestry industries. In this study, thirty EFs, isolated from three Chilean Nothofagus species (N. alp...

Candidozyma auris (formerly Candida auris) is an emerging multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen with confirmed cases in over 30 countries. Although whole-genome sequencing (WGS) analysis defined distinct clades during characterization of underlying gen...

Mitochondrial genomes play a central role in fungal physiology and adaptation, yet their evolutionary dynamics during domestication remain poorly understood. Here, we performed a comparative mitogenomic and gene-expression analysis of three Pleurotus...

Cadmium (Cd) drastically inhibits plant growth and metabolism, whereas arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can enhance plant Cd tolerance through metabolic regulation. To clarify tissue-specific responses, we conducted a pot experiment combined with GC...

As an emerging threat to global food security, wheat blast necessitates the development of a rapid and field-deployable detection system to facilitate early diagnosis, enable effective management, and prevent its further spread to new regions. In thi...

Aspergillus fumigatus, a saprophytic fungus, causes aspergillosis, primarily affecting the immunocompromised. The efficacy of triazole antifungals is compromised by resistance that has developed both clinically and environmentally. Widespread agricul...

Panax notoginseng, a high-value medicinal crop, suffers substantial yield losses due to Fusarium oxysporum-mediated root rot, for which no molecularly defined control targets are currently available. Histone acetyltransferases (HATs) serve as crucial...
