Morphological and Molecular Variability of < em > Alternaria solani < /em > and < em > Phytophthora infestans < /em > Causing Tomato Blights
Int J Microbiol. 2023 May 27;2023:8951351. doi: 10.1155/2023/8951351. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTAlternaria solani and Phytophthora infestans cause early and late blight diseases in tomato and potato, respectively. A. solani can survive for more than a decade in the soil, seed, or in plant residues at optimum temperature. The pathogen exhibits high molecular and genetic variation between isolates from potato and tomato plants, in different countries. Morphological studies reveal separate conidia borne singly on simple conidiophores. Spores are elongated, muriform, beaked, septate, and dark coloured. The mycelia are branched ...

Complete Genome Sequence and Comparative Genome Analysis of < em > Variovorax < /em > sp. Strains PAMC28711, PAMC26660, and PAMC28562 and Trehalose Metabolic Pathways in Antarctica Isolates
Int J Microbiol. 2022 Nov 9;2022:5067074. doi: 10.1155/2022/5067074. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTThe complete genomes of Variovorax strains were analyzed and compared along with the genomes of Variovorax strains PAMC28711, PAMC28562, and PAMC26660, Antarctic isolates. The genomic information was collected from the NCBI database and the CAZyme database, and Prokka annotation was used to find the genes that encode for the trehalose metabolic pathway. Likewise, CAZyme annotation (dbCAN2 Meta server) was performed to predict the CAZyme family responsible for trehalose biosynthesis and degradation enzymes. Trehalose has been found...
