As a native crop in central Asia, pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) has been cultivated in China for more than 2000 years (Yuan et al. 2007). In August 2022, typical symptoms of anthracnose were observed on pomegranate fruitlets in the main cultivation area (34°22'36″N, 109°15'58″E) in Shaanxi Province, China. The disease incidence was approximately 10 to 15% in the field. The initial symptoms were slightly small, light, dark, sunken lesions with irregular, circular shapes. As the disease progressed, the necrotic lesions gradually expanded and merged, eventually leading to the abscission of fruits (Figure 1, A)...

Penicilloneines A ( 1 ) and B ( 2 ) are the first reported quinolone-citrinin hybrids. They were isolated from the starfish-derived fungus Penicillium sp. GGF16-1-2, and their structures were elucidated using spectroscopic, chemical, computational, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Penicilloneines A ( 1 ) and B ( 2 ) share a common 4-hydroxy-1-methyl-2(1 H )-quinolone unit; however, they differ in terms of citrinin moieties, and these two units are linked via a methylene bridge. Penicilloneines A ( 1 ) and B ( 2 ) exhibited antifungal activities against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides , with lethal concentration 50 values of 0...

Pepper anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides infection is an important fungal disease and represents a serious threat to pepper yield and quality. At present, the pathogenic molecular mechanism of C. gloeosporioides is not very clear. In our study, we characterized the function of C. gloeosporioides CgNis1, a homolog of Magnaporthe oryzae MoNis1. We found that the ∆ Cgnis1 mutant reduced the growth rate and was defective in conidiation. Although the rate of appressorium formation was unaffected, the germ tube was found to be abnormal...

Similar to cacao pod rot, cherelle wilt decreases production from cacao fields. Among all known fungal pathogens of the cacao, Colletotrichum spp. are common infectious agents that affect the cherelles and pods of cacao; thus, cacao diseases are often classified by stage. Therefore, knowing whether these pathogens are common in both fruit stages is necessary for implementing disease control measures. Symptoms of cherelle wilt were found in cacao plants in Pangasinan, Philippines, in 2022. The fungal strain obtained from the lesion was found to be pathogenic towards cherelles, but not towards pods...

Colletotrichum coccodes (Wallr.) Hughes is an asexual fungus with five vegetative compatibility groups. It was postulated that C. coccodes was isolated at the center of origin of potato at one time, and due to the movement of potato around the globe, the fungus was established on each continent but became bottlenecked and genetically unable to form stable heterokaryons via vegetative compatibility grouping (VCG) studies. The objectives of this study were (i) to determine if the VCGs around the world are related to the VCGs in Chile, (ii) to determine the diversity of C...

BACKGROUND: Poplar anthracnose, which is one of the most important tree diseases, is primarily caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, which has been detected in poplar plantations in China and is responsible for serious economic losses. The characteristics of 84K poplar that have made it one of the typical woody model plants used for investigating stress resistance include its rapid growth, simple reproduction, and adaptability. RESULTS: In this study, we found that the resistance of 84K poplar to anthracnose varied considerably depending on how the samples were inoculated of the two seedlings in each tissue culture bottle, one (84K-Cg) was inoculated for 6 days, whereas the 84K-DCg samples were another seedling inoculated at the 6th day and incubated for another 6 days under the same conditions...

Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are monocopper enzymes that oxidatively degrade various polysaccharides, such as cellulose. Despite extensive research on this class of enzymes, the role played by their C-terminal regions predicted to be intrinsically disordered (dCTR) has been overlooked. Here, we investigated the function of the dCTR of an LPMO, called Co AA9A, up-regulated during plant infection by Colletotrichum orbiculare , the causative agent of anthracnose. After recombinant production of the full-length protein, we found that the dCTR mediates Co AA9A dimerization in vitro, via a disulfide bridge, a hitherto-never-reported property that positively affects both binding and activity on cellulose...
