Alternative splicing in the obligate biotrophic oomycete pathogen, Pseudoperonospora cubensis

Creator:

Cumbie, Jason S.

Abstract:

Oomycetes are some of the most devastating pathogens, causing upwards of billions of dollars of damage each year to plants. They also diminish ecological diversity and health through the destruction of trees and shrubs. The genome sequence of Pseudoperonospora cubensis, an obligate plant pathogen and causative agent of downy mildew...

Genome-enabled discovery and characterization of type III effector-encoding genes of plant symbiotic bacteria

Creator:

Kimbrel, Jeffrey A.

Abstract:

Symbiosis is the close and protracted interaction between organisms. The molecular interactions that occur during symbiosis are complex with multiple barriers that must be overcome. Many Gram-negative, host-associated bacteria use a type III secretion system to mediate associations with their eukaryotic hosts. This secretion system is a specialized apparatus for...
