β-1,6-Glucan is a functionally crucial polysaccharide of the fungal cell wall, although typically less abundant than β-1,3-glucan and chitin, its content, chain length, and branching vary considerably among species. Structurally, it serves as a covalent cross-linker tethering the external mannoprotein layer to the inte...

ABSTRACT Microbial taxa in the soil microbiome with specific ecological functions play crucial roles in plant health. Flavobacterium is found closely associated with physiological functions that promote plant growth and enhance disease resistance. While cooperative interactions mediated by metabolite exchange can stabi...

Watermelon Fusarium wilt is a severe soil-borne disease that threatens continuous watermelon production. Effective disease control depends on the differentiation of pathogen races, the accumulation of soil-borne inoculum, and disturbances in the soil bacterial community caused by continuous cropping. In this study, a p...

Rice blast disease is one of most devastating fungal diseases caused by Magnaporthe oryzae. The preparation and transformation of protoplasm are of vital importance for understanding the pathogenic mechanism of M. oryzae and achieving the control of rice blast disease. In this study, we aim to optimize conditions for p...
