Genome sequence and analysis of the Irish potato famine pathogen Phytophthora infestans.

Brian J. Haas, +102 more
- 17 Sep 2009 - 
TL;DR: The sequence of the P. infestans genome is reported, which at ∼240 megabases (Mb) is by far the largest and most complex genome sequenced so far in the chromalveolates and probably plays a crucial part in the rapid adaptability of the pathogen to host plants and underpins its evolutionary potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid accumulation of mutations during seed-to-seed propagation of mismatch-repair-defective Arabidopsis

TL;DR: To test in Arabidopsis a hypothesis that prior mismatch repair (MMR) is paramount in defense of plant genetic fidelity, propagated in parallel 36 MMR-defective and 36 wild-type lines and showed each Atmsh2-1 line to have evolved its own "fingerprint," suggesting MMR during diploid growth is essential for plant genomic integrity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduction of Stability of Arabidopsis Genomic and Transgenic DNA-Repeat Sequences (Microsatellites) by Inactivation of AtMSH2 Mismatch-Repair Function

TL;DR: Ex vivo microsatellite instability is shown for the first time in MMR-defective plants, indicating that plants also use MMR to promote germ line fidelity, and MMR-dependent error correction may be less stringent in differentiated leaf cells than in plant equivalents of germ line tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytophthora have distinct endogenous small RNA populations that include short interfering and microRNAs.

TL;DR: This work analyzed the small RNA-generating components of the genomes of P. infestans, P. sojae and P. ramorum using bioinformatics, genetic, phylogenetic and high-throughput sequencing-based methods to provide a framework for testing the role of small RNAs in Phytophthora biology and pathogenesis in future work.
Journal ArticleDOI

Schistosome infectivity in the snail, Biomphalaria glabrata, is partially dependent on the expression of Grctm6, a Guadeloupe Resistance Complex protein.

TL;DR: It is shown that Grctm6 is not only expressed in B. glabrata hemolymph, but that it also has a role in modulating the number of S. mansoni cercariae released by infected snails, making it a possible target for the biological control of schistosomiasis.
