Engelbrecht, J.; Duong, Tuan A.; Van den Berg, Noelani (American Phytopathological Society, 2013)Phytophthora cinnamomi causes Phytophthora root rot (PRR) in avocado (Persea americana), an important disease that causes severe economic losses to the avocado industry globally. To date,no PRR-resistant avocado rootstock ...

Martínez-Ferri, E.; Moreno-Ortega, G.; Van den Berg, Noelani; Pliego, C. (BioMed Central, 2019-11-29)BACKGROUND : White root rot (WRR) disease caused by Rosellinia necatrix is one of the most important threats affecting avocado orchards in temperate regions. The eradication of WRR is a difficult task and environmentall ...

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 ...
