Messal, Mandy; Slippers, Bernard; Naidoo, Sanushka; Bezuidt, Keoagile Ignatius Oliver; Kemler, Martin (MDPI, 2019-10)Fungi represent a common and diverse part of the microbial communities that associate with plants. They also commonly colonise various plant parts asymptomatically. The molecular mechanisms of these interactions are, ...

Marsberg, Angelica; Kemler, Martin; Jami, Fahimeh; Nagel, Jan Hendrik; Postma-Smidt, Alisa; Naidoo, Sanushka; Wingfield, Michael J.; Crous, Pedro W.; Spatafora, Joseph; Hesse, Cedar N.; Robbertse, Barbara; Slippers, Bernard (Wiley, 2017-05)Botryosphaeria dothidea is the type species of Botryosphaeria (Botryosphaeriaceae, Botryosphaeriales). Fungi residing in this order are amongst the most widespread and important canker and dieback pathogens of trees ...

McTaggart, Alistair R.; Duong, Tuan A.; Le, Vang Quy; Shuey, Louise S.; Smidt, Werner; Naidoo, Sanushka; Wingfield, Michael J.; Wingfield, Brenda D. (Future Medicine, 2018-11)It is challenging to sequence and assemble genomes of obligate plant pathogens and microorganisms because of limited amounts of DNA, comparatively large genomes and high numbers of repeat regions. We sequenced the 1.2 ...

Visser, Erik A.; Wegrzyn, Jill L.; Myburg, Alexander Andrew; Naidoo, Sanushka (BioMed Central, 2018-08-23)BACKGROUND : Fusarium circinatum is a pressing threat to the cultivation of many economically important pine tree species. Efforts to develop effective disease management strategies can be aided by investigating the ...

Kwenda, Stanford; Gorshkov, Vladimir; Ramesh, Aadi Moolam; Naidoo, Sanushka; Rubagotti, Enrico; Birch, Paul R. J.; Moleleki, Lucy N. (BioMed Central, 2016-01-12)BACKGROUND : Small RNAs (sRNAs) have emerged as important regulatory molecules and have been studied in several bacteria. However, to date, there have been no whole-transcriptome studies on sRNAs in any of the Soft ...

Visser, Erik A.; Wegrzyn, Jill L.; Steenkamp, Emma Theodora; Myburg, Alexander Andrew; Naidoo, Sanushka (MDPI, 2019-09-04)Fusarium circinatum poses a serious threat to many pine species in both commercial and natural pine forests. Knowledge regarding the molecular basis of pine-F. circinatum host-pathogen interactions could assist efforts to ...

Du Toit, Yves; Coles, Donovin William; Mewalal, Ritesh; Christie, Nanette; Naidoo, Sanushka (Frontiers Media, 2020-02-17)Many pests and pathogens threaten Eucalyptus plantations. The study of defense responses in this economically important wood and fiber crop enables the discovery of novel pathways and genes, which may be adopted to improve ...

Zwart, Lizahn; Berger, David Kenneth; Moleleki, Lucy Novungayo; Van der Merwe, Nicolaas Albertus (Albie); Myburg, Alexander Andrew; Naidoo, Sanushka (Nature Publishing Group, 2017-03)Eucalyptus species are cultivated for forestry and are of economic importance. The fungal stem canker pathogen Chrysoporthe austroafricana causes disease of varying severity on E. grandis. The Eucalyptus grandis-Chrysoporthe ...

Kanzi, Aquillah M.; Wingfield, Brenda D.; Steenkamp, Emma Theodora; Naidoo, Sanushka; Van der Merwe, Nicolaas Albertus (Albie) (Public Library of Science, 2016-06-06)In this study, the complete mitochondrial (mt) genomes of Chrysoporthe austroafricana (190,834 bp), C. cubensis (89,084 bp) and C. deuterocubensis (124,412 bp) were determined. Additionally, the mitochondrial genome of ...

Backer, Robert; Naidoo, Sanushka; Van den Berg, Noelani (Frontiers Media, 2019-02-13)The NONEXPRESSOR OF PATHOGENESIS-RELATED GENES 1 (NPR1) and related NPR1-like proteins are a functionally similar, yet surprisingly diverse family of transcription co-factors. Initially, NPR1 in Arabidopsis was identified ...

Naidoo, Sanushka; Slippers, Bernard; Plett, Jonathan M.; Coles, Donovin; Oates, Caryn Nicole (Frontiers Media, 2019-03-29)In recent years, forests have been exposed to an unprecedented rise in pests and pathogens. This, coupled with the added challenge of climate change, renders forest plantation stock vulnerable to attack and severely limits ...

Teshome, Demissew Tesfaye; Zharare, Godfrey Elijah; Naidoo, Sanushka (Frontiers Media, 2020-11)Plants encounter several biotic and abiotic stresses, usually in combination. This results in major economic losses in agriculture and forestry every year. Climate change aggravates the adverse effects of combined stresses ...

Hernandez-Escribano, Laura; Visser, Erik A.; Iturritxa, Eugenia; Raposo, Rosa; Naidoo, Sanushka (BioMed Central, 2020-01-08)BACKGROUND : Fusarium circinatum, the causal agent of pitch canker disease, poses a serious threat to several Pinus species affecting plantations and nurseries. Although Pinus pinaster has shown moderate resistance to F. ...
