Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a necrotrophic plant-pathogenic fungus that infects more than 400 species of plants. In this study the nascent polypeptide-associated complex α subunit gene of S. sclerotiorum (SsNACα; accession No. XP_001593856.1) was cloned and characterized. The relative transcript expression of SsNACα at different morphological stages of asexual development of S. sclerotiorum were analyzed by quantitative real time PCR (qRT-PCR). RNAi-mediated gene silencing was successful for…

The Notorious Soilborne Pathogenic Fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum: An Update on Genes Studied with Mutant Analysis
TLDR
Key molecular findings on the unique biology and pathogenesis process of S. sclerotiorum are reviewed, focusing on genes that have been studied in depth using mutant analysis.
Proteome of the fungus Phoma macdonaldii, the causal agent of black stem of sunflower.
Pathogenic fungal protein-induced resistance and its effects on vegetable diseases
TLDR
Experiments have demonstrated that exogenous application of fungal proteins could reduce Alternaria brassicicola-induced black spot severity on cabbage, Colletotrichum spp.-induced anthracnose on Chinese cabbage and cucumber, Rhizoctonia solani-induced damping-off on sweet pepper and Chinese cabbage, and powdery mildew on cucumber seedlings.

Type 2A phosphoprotein phosphatase is required for asexual development and pathogenesis of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.
TLDR
Reduced ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinases)-like mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) function conferred a reduction in NADPH oxidase and PP2A activity levels, suggesting a functional link between MAPK, reactive oxygen species, and PP1A activity in S. sclerotiorum.
The Sclerotinia sclerotiorum pac1 gene is required for sclerotial development and virulence.

TLDR
Based on results, pac1 appears to be necessary for the appropriate regulation of physiological processes important for pathogenesis and development of S. sclerotiorum.
Calcineurin is required for sclerotial development and pathogenicity of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum in an oxalic acid-independent manner.
TLDR
Inhibition of calcineurin conferred a reduction in cell wall beta-1,3-glucan content and increased sensitivity to cell-wall-degrading enzymes and to the glucan synthase inhibitor caspofungin, Thus, calcinesurin plays a major role in both sclerotial development and pathogenesis of S. sclerOTiorum and, most likely, other phytopathogens.
MAPK regulation of sclerotial development in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is linked with pH and cAMP sensing.
TLDR
Sclerotial development is fundamental to the disease cycle of the omnivorous broad host range fungal phytopathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and it is demonstrated that Smk1 is required for sclerOTial development.
Ss-Sl2, a Novel Cell Wall Protein with PAN Modules, Is Essential for Sclerotial Development and Cellular Integrity of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum
TLDR
It is suggested that a protein, named Ss-Sl2, functions in both sclerotial development and cellular integrity of S. sclerOTiorum.
