Abstract:
... Biscogniauxia nummularia (Bull.) Kuntze is a fungus which induces strip-cankers on beech, commonly referred to as charcoal canker. The symptoms of infection are visible on the host tree’s bark as elongated, blackish bark lesions on the trunk and branches. Recent years have shown that, due to climate change causing local epidemics, the species is increasing its economic impact in Mediterranean regi ...

... Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica are important pathogens worldwide. Bacteriophages can be effectively used to reduce the incidence of foodborne pathogens. The host recognition systems of phages are highly specific, with the host range of a common phage being limited to the species or strain level. Here, we characterized a novel broad-host-range phage, EscoHU1, that in ...

Abstract:
... In 1977, a sample of diseased adult honeybees (Apis mellifera) from Egypt was found to contain large amounts of a previously unknown virus, Egypt bee virus, which was subsequently shown to be serologically related to deformed wing virus (DWV). By sequencing the original isolate, we demonstrate that Egypt bee virus is in fact a fourth unique, major variant of DWV (DWV-D): more closely related to DW ...

Abstract:
... Japanese hop (Humulus scandens) is a nonnative, invasive plant that colonizes disturbed riparian areas throughout the eastern United States and Canada, forming dense, monocultural stands that displace native plant communities due to a high reproductive rate, rapid growth, climbing bines, and dense shading (Balogh and Dancza 2008). It is capable of serving as a reservoir for agronomically important ...

... The ability of a fungal entomopathogen to infect an insect depends on a variety of factors, including strain, host, and environmental conditions. Similarly, an insect’s ability to prevent fungal infection is dependent on its biology, environment, and evolutionary history. Synanthropic pests have adapted to thrive in the indoor environment, yet they arose from divergent evolutionary lineages and oc ...

The most important members of the family for the Greek region and other Mediterranean countries are Botryosphaeria dothidea, Neofusicoccum hellenicum, Neofusicoccum mediterraneum and Neofusicoccum parvum. The frequently concurrent isolation of Botryosphaeriace ...

Abstract:
... Umbraviruses are a special class of plant viruses that do not encode any viral structural proteins. Here, a novel umbravirus that has been tentatively named Paederia scandens chlorosis yellow virus (PSCYV) was discovered through RNA-seq in Paederia scandens plants showing leaf chlorosis and yellowing symptoms. The PSCYV genome is a 4301 nt positive-sense, single strand RNA that contains four open ...

Abundant asymptomatic RNA viruses have been reported in aphids due to the application of RNA‐seq, but aphid–virus interactions remain unclear. Bunyavirales is the most abundant RNA virus order, which can infect mammals, arthropods, and plants. However, many bun ...

At one extreme end of this spectrum are non‐hosts that are unsuitable for offspring development. Non‐hosts are generally ignored but parasitization does occur and occasionally also results in egg deposition. Here, the authors i ...
