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.

Efficacy of methyl thujate in inhibiting Penicillium expansum growth and possible mechanism involved

TL;DR: It was found that a monoterpenoid substance, methyl thujate, was effective in inhibiting mycelial growth of Penicillium expansum and reducing its virulence on harvested fruit dose-dependently.

Unravelling the contribution of the Penicillium expansum PeSte12 transcription factor to virulence during apple fruit infection

TL;DR: Gene expression analysis revealed that PeSte12 was induced over time during apple infection compared to axenic growth, particularly from 2 dpi, reinforcing its role in virulence.
Journal ArticleDOI

The mode of action of remorin1 in regulating fruit ripening at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels.

TL;DR: It is revealed that SlREM1 serves as a positive regulator of fruit ripening and provide novel cues for understanding of the molecular regulation network of Fruit ripening.

Actin Is Required for Cellular Development and Virulence of Botrytis cinerea via the Mediation of Secretory Proteins.

TL;DR: Deletion of the Botrytis cinerea actin gene bcactA reduced growth and sporulation of B. cine Andrea and lowered virulence, and iTRAQ-based proteomic analysis showed that BcactA affects the abundance of 40 extracellular proteins, including 11 down-accumulated CWDEs.

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.

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.
