Insights into Host Cell Modulation and Induction of New Cells by the Corn Smut Ustilago maydis
Many filamentous fungal pathogens induce drastic modulation of host cells causing abnormal infectious structures such as galls, or tumors that arise as a result of re-programming in the original developmental cell fate of a colonized host cell. Developmental consequences occur predominantly with biotrophic phytopathogens. This suggests that these host structures result as an outcome of efficien...
متن کاملAflatoxin and Fumonisin in Corn (Zea mays) Infected by Common Smut Ustilago maydis
Abbas, H.K., Zablotowicz, R.M., Shier,W. T., Johnson, B. J., Phillips, N.A.,Weaver,M. A., Abel, C. A., and Bruns, H.A. 2015. Aflatoxin and fumonisin in corn (Zea mays) infected by common smut Ustilago maydis. Plant Dis. 99:1236-1240. Corn infected with Ustilago maydis (common smut) produces galls that are valued as a delicacy in some cultures. During a 4-year period, aflatoxin levels in asympto...
متن کاملEndocytosis is essential for pathogenic development in the corn smut fungus Ustilago maydis.
It is well established that polarized exocytosis is essential for fungal virulence. By contrast, the contribution of endocytosis is unknown. We made use of a temperature-sensitive mutant in the endosomal target soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor Yup1 and demonstrate that endocytosis in Ustilago maydis is essential for the initial steps of pathogenic developmen...
متن کاملHuitlacoche (corn smut), caused by the phytopathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis, as a functional food.
BACKGROUND In recent years the need has arisen to study and develop (or re-discover) foods that have nutritional characteristics as well as specific functions, such as improving health and/or reducing the risk of disease. For this reason knowledge of the nutritional value of food is important to promote greater consumer acceptance. In Mexico huitlacoche (also, cuitlacoche) has traditionally bee...
متن کاملDiscrete developmental stages during teliospore formation in the corn smut fungus, Ustilago maydis.
Ustilago maydis is a dimorphic fungus with a yeast-like non-pathogenic form and a filamentous (hyphal) pathogenic form that induces tumor formation in maize. Within mature tumors, hyphae give rise to teliospores, which are round, diploid cells surrounded by a specialized cell wall. Here we describe the time course of fungal development in the plant with a focus on the morphological changes in t...
