first report of powdery mildew of rosa persica caused by leveillula taurica from iran

during the study of powdery mildew related to erysiphaceae family from abardeh region in mashhad (khorasan-e-razavi province), one species of rose (rosa persica michx.ex juss, summer 2006) with symptoms of powdery mildew was collected. the symptoms observed with the naked eye including the dense cottony shape mycelia infected the leaf surfaces as well as some parts of the stem. mycelia were den...

Genome-Wide Study of the Tomato SlMLO Gene Family and Its Functional Characterization in Response to the Powdery Mildew Fungus Oidium neolycopersici

The MLO (Mildew Locus O) gene family encodes plant-specific proteins containing seven transmembrane domains and likely acting in signal transduction in a calcium and calmodulin dependent manner. Some members of the MLO family are susceptibility factors toward fungi causing the powdery mildew disease. In tomato, for example, the loss-of-function of the MLO gene SlMLO1 leads to a particular form ...

Loss of Function in Mlo Orthologs Reduces Susceptibility of Pepper and Tomato to Powdery Mildew Disease Caused by Leveillula taurica

Powdery mildew disease caused by Leveillula taurica is a serious fungal threat to greenhouse tomato and pepper production. In contrast to most powdery mildew species which are epiphytic, L. taurica is an endophytic fungus colonizing the mesophyll tissues of the leaf. In barley, Arabidopsis, tomato and pea, the correct functioning of specific homologues of the plant Mlo gene family has been foun...
