Cover Story: Microscopic evidence demonstrated the strictly biotrophic lifestyle of the scab fungus Venturia inaequalis on growing apple leaves and characterized its hemibiotrophy as the combination of non-haustorial biotrophy and saprotrophy not described before. The pathogen–host interface was characterized by specialized structures of the fungal stroma appressed to epidermal cells and thin fan-shaped cells covering large parts of host cells. Pathogen-induced modifications of host cells included partial degradation of the cell wall, transition of epidermal cells into transfer cells, modification of epidermal pit fields to manipulate the flow of nutrients and other compounds, and the formation of protuberances of mesophyll cells without pathogen contact. Current knowledge was summarized in a model of the V. inaequalis lifecycle lacking a necrotrophic stage. View this paper
