TLDR
This review presents the current knowledge of molecular aspects in pathogen-fruit interactions, addressing the following topics: the application of new “omics” technologies for studying these interactions; the molecular mechanisms of fungal pathogen attack; the regulation of virulence by exogenous factors; and, finally, fruit defense mechanisms.

Synthesis and Antifungal Activities of Cinnamaldehyde Derivatives against Penicillium digitatum Causing Citrus Green Mold

TL;DR: In this paper, a new derivative of cinnamaldehyde (4-methoxycinnamic acid) was developed through the cross-hydroxyaldehyde condensation method with benzaldehyde substituted by a benzene ring under the catalysis of alkaline reagent and moreover to test their antifungal potential against P. digitatum.

Double-sided battle: The role of ethylene during Monilinia spp. infection in peach at different phenological stages.

TL;DR: Overall, the results put forward that infection not only among different strains but also at each stage is achieved by different mechanisms, with ethylene being a key factor in determining peach resistance or susceptibility to brown rot.

Discovery of γ-Lactam Alkaloid Derivatives as Potential Fungicidal Agents Targeting Steroid Biosynthesis.

TL;DR: Compound D1 may be a potential novel fungicidal agent against oomycete diseases that can act on steroid biosynthesis that can provide a certain theoretical basis for the development of natural lactam derivatives as potential antifungal agents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coordinated activation of the metabolic pathways induced by LED blue light in citrus fruit

TL;DR: A holistic overview was obtained by a comparative transcriptome profile analysis, which revealed that LBL favored energy metabolism and redirected metabolic pathways toward the synthesis of diverse primary and secondary metabolism products.
Journal ArticleDOI

Organic acid, a virulence factor for pathogenic fungi, causing postharvest decay in fruits.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper summarized the research progress on the biosynthesis of organic acids, the role of the pH signalling transcription factor PacC in regulating organic acid, and the action mechanism of the main organic acid secreted via postharvest pathogenic fungi during infection of host tissues.

NOX enzymes and the biology of reactive oxygen

TL;DR: Professional phagocytes generate high levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) using a superoxide-generating NADPH oxidase as part of their armoury of microbicidal mechanisms, leading to the concept that ROS are 'intentionally' generated in these cells with distinctive cellular functions related to innate immunity, signal transduction and modification of the extracellular matrix.

Significance of Inducible Defense-related Proteins in Infected Plants

TL;DR: The evolutionary conservation of similar defense-related proteins in monocots and dicots, but also their divergent occurrence in other conditions, suggest that these proteins serve essential functions in plant life, whether in defense or not.

The genome of the domesticated apple ( Malus × domestica Borkh.)

Riccardo Velasco, +90 more
- 01 Oct 2010 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that a relatively recent (>50 million years ago) genome-wide duplication has resulted in the transition from nine ancestral chromosomes to 17 chromosomes in the Pyreae, which partly support the monophyly of the ancestral paleohexaploidy of eudicots.

Reactive Oxygen Species Signaling in Response to Pathogens

TL;DR: The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), via consumption of oxygen in a so-called oxidative burst, is one of the earliest cellular responses following successful pathogen recognition.
