THE VIRUS-INDUCED UPREGULATION OF THE MIR-183/96/182 CLUSTER AND THE FOXO FAMILY PROTEIN MEMBERS ARE NOT REQUIRED FOR EFFICIENT REPLICATION OF HSV-1

The Virus-Induced Upregulation of the miR-183/96/182 Cluster and the FoxO Family Protein Members Are Not Required for Efficient Replication of HSV-1

Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) expresses a large number of miRNAs, and their function is still not completely understood.In addition, HSV-1 has been found to deregulate host miRNAs, which adds to the complexity of the regulation of efficient virus replication.In this study, we comprehensively addressed the deregulation of host pink chiclets gum miR

Transcriptional Reprogramming of Arabidopsis thaliana Defence Pathways by the Entomopathogen Beauveria bassiana Correlates With Resistance Against a Fungal Pathogen but Not Against Insects

The entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana can adopt an endophytic lifestyle by colonising a wide array of plant species.Beauveria-colonised plants can show enhanced resistance against insects and plant pathogens alike.However, little is known about the molecular and physiological mechanisms that govern such interactions.Here, we assessed the e

Temperature and Isolate Are Important Determinants of Brassica napus Susceptibility to Aggressive Sclerotinia sclerotiorum Isolates

Management of Sclerotinia stem rot (SSR) disease in Brassica napus is heavily reliant on prophylactic colts dog collar fungicide applications at flowering, which often provides inconsistent control depending on timing of ascospore release in the field and environmental conditions.Understanding host response to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum infection is
