Pecan scab, caused by Venturia effusa, is the most economically damaging disease of pecan in southeastern United States, and annual epidemics are effectively managed through multiple fungicide applications. The applications can be single greatest operating cost for commercial growers return on that investment impacted resistance. V. effusa produces generations conidia per season, exhibits subst...

A recommendation of: E. Vergne, Chevreau, Ravon, S. Gaillard, Pelletier, M. Bahut, L. Perchepied Phenotypic and transcriptomic analyses reveal major differences between apple pear scab nonhost resistance https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.06.01.446506

Streptomyces sp. strain 11-1-2 is a Gram-positive filamentous bacterium that was isolated from a common scab lesion on a potato tuber. The strain is highly pathogenic to plants but does not produce the virulence-associated Streptomyces phytotoxin thaxtomin A. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Streptomyces sp. 11-1-2.

To prevent phytosanitary destabilization in apple agrocenoses, it is necessary to include ecologically safe microbiological preparations the protection systems. In Krasnodar region 2016 and 2019 field, laboratory samples of were tested formulation “wettable powder” from collection biological method FGBNU VNIIMK against Venturia inaequalis (Cooke) G. Winter. Of 9 2016, highest efficiency, approa...

Sequencing of a cellulosome-integrating gene cluster in Acetivibrio cellulolyticus was completed. The cluster contains four tandem scaffoldin genes (scaA, scaB, scaC, and scaD) bounded upstream and downstream, respectively, by a presumed cellobiose phosphorylase and a nucleotide methylase. The sequences and properties of scaA, scaB, and scaC were reported previously, and those of scaD are repor...

Both wheat breeder and wheat inspector must currently deal with the assessment of scab in harvested wheat by manual human inspection. We are currently developing and examining the accuracy of a semi-automated wheat scab inspection system that is based on near-infrared (NIR) reflectance (1000 to 1700 nm) of individual kernels. Our initial work revealed that, for scanning, the kernels could be or...

Apple scab is a disease caused by the fungus Venturia inaequalis (Cke.) Wint. which can spread rapidly throughout orchards diminishing tree productivity and causing huge losses in marketable fruit. Efficient orchard reconnaissance early detection of infections inform fungicide applications for effective control range new low-cost sensors offer means imaging as basis detection. This study evalua...
