Unveiling molecular mechanisms of strobilurin resistance in the cacao pathogen Moniliophthora perniciosa Open
Strobilurin fungicides inhibit mitochondrial respiration, leading to ATP depletion and oxidative stress. Although widely used in agriculture, these chemicals are ineffective against the cacao pathogen Moniliophthora perniciosa. Here, we sh…

The plastid-encoded RNA polymerase of plant chloroplasts Open
Plant chloroplasts possess a dedicated genome (plastome) and a prokaryotic-type plastid-encoded RNA polymerase (PEP) that mediates its expression. PEP is composed of five bacteria-like core proteins and 16 nucleus-encoded PEP-associated pr…

Unveiling novel mechanisms of strobilurin resistance in the cacao pathogen<i>Moniliophthora perniciosa</i> Open
Witches’ broom disease (WBD) is a major constraint for cacao production in the Americas. The severe socioeconomic impact of WBD encouraged the evaluation of different control strategies, including the use of strobilurin fungicides. These m…

Structure of the multi-subunit chloroplast RNA polymerase Open
Chloroplasts contain a dedicated genome that encodes subunits of the photosynthesis machinery. Transcription of photosynthesis genes is predominantly carried out by a plastid-encoded RNA polymerase (PEP), a nearly 1 MDa complex composed of…

Molecular and cellular basis of hyperassembly and protein aggregation driven by a rare pathogenic mutation in DDX3X Open
Current studies estimate that 1-3% of females with unexplained intellectual disability (ID) present de novo splice site, nonsense, frameshift, or missense mutations in the DDX3X protein (DEAD-Box Helicase 3 X-Linked). However, the cellular…

Adaptive evolution of<i>Moniliophthora</i>PR-1 proteins towards its pathogenic lifestyle Open
Moniliophthora perniciosa and Moniliophthora roreri are hemibiotrophic fungi that harbor a large number of Pathogenesis-Related 1 genes, many of which are induced in the biotrophic interaction with Theobroma cacao. Here, we provide evidenc…

High-Resolution Transcript Profiling of the Atypical Biotrophic Interaction between Theobroma cacao and the Fungal Pathogen Moniliophthora perniciosa Open
Witches’ broom disease (WBD), caused by the hemibiotrophic fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa, is one of the most devastating diseases of Theobroma cacao, the chocolate tree. In contrast to other hemibiotrophic interactions, the WBD biotroph…

Unraveling the complex genome of Saccharum spontaneum using Polyploid Gene Assembler Open
The Polyploid Gene Assembler (PGA), developed and tested in this study, represents a new strategy to perform gene-space assembly from complex genomes using low coverage DNA sequencing. The pipeline integrates reference-assisted loci and de…
