For soybean, novel single dominant Resistance to Phytophthora sojae (Rps) genes are sought to manage Phytophthora root and stem rot. In this study, resistance to P. sojae was mapped individually in four recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations derived from crosses of the susceptible cultivar Williams with PI 407985, PI 408029, PI 408097, and PI424...

Common bunt caused by Tilletia tritici and T. laevis has re-emerged as a major threat to wheat yield and quality, especially in organic farming. Resistance against its causal agents is present in the wheat gene pool and provides the most economically efficient and sustainable way to combat the disease since seed treatments approved for organic farm...

Plants face constant threats from insect herbivores, which limit plant distribution and abundance in nature and crop productivity in agricultural ecosystems. In recent decades, the whitefly Bemisia tabaci, a group of phloem-feeding insects, has emerged as pests of global significance. In this article, we summarize current knowledge on plant defense...

Wheat stripe rust is a fungal disease caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. Tritici (Pst). It significantly impacts wheat yields in Xinjiang, China. Breeding and promoting disease-resistant cultivars carrying disease-resistance genes remains the most cost-effective strategy with which to control the disease. In this study, 17 molecular markers were...

Six quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for adult plant resistance against oat crown rust (Puccinia coronata f. sp. avenae) were identified from mapping three recombinant inbred populations. Using genotyping-by-sequencing with markers called against the OT3098 v1 reference genome, the QTLs were mapped on six different chromosomes: Chr1D, Chr4D, Chr5A, C...

We evaluated an alternative small stem assay (AltSSA) for blight resistance in backcross hybrid chestnut trees (Castanea dentata/mollissima). Whereas standard small stem assays (SSAs) are done by inoculating small incisions in stems, in our AltSSA, 4- to 5-mm stems are cut off, and the exposed (living) stem tips are inoculated with discs of Cryphon...

Spot blotch (SB) caused by Bipolaris sorokiniana (teleomorph Cochliobolus sativus) is one of the devastating diseases of wheat in the warm and humid growing areas around the world. B. sorokiniana can infect leaves, stem, roots, rachis and seeds, and is able to produce toxins like helminthosporol and sorokinianin. No wheat variety is immune to SB; h...

Grape gray mold disease (Botrytis cinerea) is widespread during grape production especially in Vitis vinifera and causes enormous losses to the grape industry. In nature, the grapevine cultivar ‘Beta ‘ (Vitis riparia × Vitis labrusca) showed high resistance to grape gray mold. Until now, the candidate genes and their mechanism of gray mold resistan...
