Meiotic recombination in Leptosphaeria maculans favours the rise of transgressive isolates adapted to a nonhost species, Brassica carinata

J. M. Noah, M. Gorse, C.-A. Romain, E. J. Gay, T. Rouxel, M.-H. Balesdent, J. L. Soyer

The paper shows that meiotic recombination in Leptosphaeria maculans produces isolates better adapted to the nonhost Brassica carinata than their parental isolates.

The neighboring genes AvrLm10A and AvrLm10B are part of a large multigene family of cooperating effector genes conserved in Dothideomycetes and Sordariomycetes

N. Talbi, L. Fokkens, C. Audran, Y. Petit-Houdenot, C. Pouzet, F. Blaise, E. J. Gay, T. Rouxel, M.-H. Balesdent, M. Rep, I. Fudal

The paper identifies AvrLm10A and AvrLm10B as part of a conserved multigene family in fungal pathogens, showing they cooperate with other effectors through co-regulation and physical interactions.

Regulation of effector gene expression as concerted waves in Leptosphaeria maculans: a two-players game

C. Clairet, E. J. Gay, A. Porquier, F. Blaise, C.-L. Marais, M.-H. Balesdent, T. Rouxel, J. L. Soyer, I. Fudal

This study investigates the regulation of effector gene expression in Leptosphaeria maculans, showing that KMT1 and LmPf2 antagonistically control effector gene expression during infection.

Synergy of culture-dependent molecular identification and whole-community metabarcode sequencing for characterizing the microbiota of arable crop residues

V. Laval, L. Kerdraon, M. Barret, A.-L. Liabot, C. Marais, B. Boudier, M.-H. Balesdent, M. Fischer-Le Saux, F. Suffert

This study compares culture-dependent and culture-independent methods for analyzing microbiota in crop residues, finding they provide complementary information about microbial diversity and function.

Large-scale transcriptomics to dissect two years of the life of a fungal phytopathogen interacting with its host plant

E. J. Gay, J. L. Soyer, N. Lapalu, J. Linglin, I. Fudal, C. Da Silva, P. Wincker, J.-M. Aury, C. Cruaud, A. Levrel, J. Lemoine, R. Delourme, T. Rouxel, M.-H. Balesdent

This paper uses large-scale transcriptomics to analyze the gene expression of Leptosphaeria maculans over two years of interaction with its host plant, identifying 9% of genes involved in infection stages and revealing their chromatin localization.

A new family of structurally conserved fungal effectors displays epistatic interactions with plant resistance proteins

N. Lazar, C. H. Mesarich, Y. Petit-Houdenot, N. Talbi, I. Li de la Sierra-Gallay, E. Zelie, K. Blondeau, J. Gracy, B. Ollivier, F. Blaise, T. Rouxel, M.-H. Balesdent, A. Idnurm, H. van Tilbeurgh, I. Fudal

The paper identifies a new family of fungal effectors, LARS, that structurally resemble known avirulence effectors and can trigger or suppress plant resistance.

Impact of a resistance gene against a fungal pathogen on the plant host residue microbiome: the case of the Leptosphaeria maculans-Brassica napus pathosystem

L. Kerdraon, M. Barret, M.-H. Balesdent, F. Suffert, V. Laval

This study examines how a resistance gene affects the microbiome of plant residues and identifies microbial interactions with a fungal pathogen.

Crop residues in wheat-oilseed rape rotation system: a pivotal, shifting platform for microbial meetings

L. Kerdraon, M.-H. Balesdent, M. Barret, V. Laval, F. Suffert

This study shows that crop residues in wheat-oilseed rape rotations act as a microbial ecosystem, with plant-specific microbes being replaced over time by soil-derived taxa, particularly faster in bacteria than fungi.
