Plants are in contact with diverse pathogens and microorganisms. Intense investigation over
the last 30 years has resulted in the identification of multiple immune receptors in model and …

The global diversity of fungi has been estimated between 2 to 11 million species, of which
only about 155 000 have been named. Most fungi are invisible to the unaided eye, but they …

Introduced pathogen microorganisms are important drivers of ecosystem change. This paper
highlights the impact of the non-native pathogen mildew multi-species complex on the …

Novel species of fungi described in this study include those from various countries as
follows: Antarctica, Apenidiella antarctica from permafrost, Cladosporium fildesense from an …

Leaves interact with a wealth of microorganisms. Among these, fungi are highly diverse and
are known to contribute to plant health, leaf senescence and early decomposition. However …

Tree health declines can be caused by interactions between pests and pathogens and many
studies have shown a reduction in their damage in mixed species forests compared to …

Powdery mildews are some of the most common and dangerous biotrophic plant pathogens.
They attack more than 10, 000 plant species, and can be found mainly in temperate and sub …

Plants, including those managed by humans, are often attacked by multiple diseases. Yet,
most studies focus on single diseases, even if the disease dynamics of multiple species is …

Erysiphe is the largest genus of powdery mildews (PMs), a group of obligate plant
pathogenic fungi. Exploration of biodiversity generally relies on regional surveys and our …

Plants interact with a large diversity of microbes and insects, both below and above ground.
While studies have shown that belowground microbes affect the performance of plants and …
