Journal ArticleDOI

Treatment with 24-epibrassinolide, a brassinosteroid, increases the basic thermotolerance of Brassica napus and tomato seedlings.

TL;DR: It is shown here that Brassica napus and tomato seedlings growing in the presence of 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) are significantly more tolerant to a lethal heat treatment than are control seedlings grown in the absence of the compound.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colonization process of olive tissues by Verticillium dahliae and its in planta interaction with the biocontrol root endophyte Pseudomonas fluorescens PICF7.

TL;DR: Early and localized root surface and root endophytic colonization by P. fluorescens PICF7 is needed to impair full progress of verticillium wilt epidemics in olive.
Journal ArticleDOI

A hydrophobin gene, VDH1, is involved in microsclerotial development and spore viability in the plant pathogen Verticillium dahliae

TL;DR: In this article, a differentially expressed, class II hydrophobin gene (VDH1) was identified in Verticillium dahliae Kleb, which produces desiccation and cold-tolerant resting structures, known as microsclerotia, which are the primary source of disease inoculum in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence tag analysis of gene expression during pathogenic growth and microsclerotia development in the vascular wilt pathogen Verticillium dahliae.

TL;DR: The results of this preliminary analysis suggest that the in vitro growth conditions used here provide useful model systems that will facilitate studies of pathogenesis and microsclerotia development in V. dahliae.
