Botrytis cinerea is responsible for the gray mold disease on more than 200 host plants. This
necrotrophic ascomycete displays the capacity to kill host cells through the production of …

Botrytized wines are natural sweet wines, produced from grapes that are affected by Botrytis
cinerea under particular conditions. This rare and special form of fungal infection, called …

The grey mould fungus Botrytis cinerea produces two major phytotoxins, the sesquiterpene
botrydial, for which the biosynthesis gene cluster has been characterized previously, and the …

The fungus Botrytis cinerea is the causal agent of the economically important gray mold
disease that affects more than 200 ornamental and agriculturally important plant species. B …

In this era of whole genome sequencing, reliable genome annotations (identification of
functional regions) are the cornerstones for many subsequent analyses. Not only is careful …

In filamentous ascomycetes, HOG-like signal transduction cascades are involved in the
resistance to hyper-osmotic conditions and to dicarboximides and phenylpyrroles. The …

The filamentous ascomycete Botrytis cinerea is one of the most studied models for
understanding the necrotrophic behaviour of phytopathogenic fungi. The genomes of two …

Botrytis cinerea is a pathogenic ascomycete fungus that causes gray mold on many crops.
Chemical control remains the principal method for curbing this disease. However, fungicide …

Phytopathogenic fungi are able to overcome plant chemical defenses through detoxification
reactions that are enzyme mediated. As a result of such detoxifications, the plant is quickly …

Over two hundred species of plants can be infected by the phytopathogenic fungus Botrytis
cinerea under a range of different environmental conditions. In response to these, the fungus …
