In this review models of specific recognition are discussed under the headings: the concepts
of basic compatibility and specificity; genetic and physiological data relevant to plant …

Within a fungal species, a subset of individuals may have more than the minimal
complement of chromosomes. If the extra chromosomes are composed primarily of DNA not …

A race-specific peptide elicitor from Cladosporium fulvum induces a hypersensitive
response on Cf9 tomato genotypes. We have hypothesized that the avirulence of fungal …

A family of cytochrome P-450 (Pda) genes in the pathogenic fungus Nectria haematococca
is responsible for the detoxification of the phytoalexin pisatin, an antimicrobial compound …

The ability to detoxify the phytoalexin, pisatin, an antimicrobial compound produced by pea
(Pisum sativum L.), is one requirement for pathogenicity of the fungus Nectria haematococca …

The gene PDA T9 from the fungus Nectria haematococca encodes pisatin demethylase, an
enzyme that detoxifies the phytoalexin pisatin, an antimicrobial compound produced by pea …

In Nectria haematococca the MAK1 gene product converts a chick-pea (Cicer arietinum)
phytoalexin, maackiain, into a less toxic compound. The presence of MAK1 in this fungal …

Nectria haematococca mating population (MP) VI isolates that contain the MAK1 gene are
able to degrade maackiain, a chickpea (Cicer arietinum) phytoalexin, to a less toxic …

Several landmarks have been established in the domain of plant sciences during the past
half century but the discovery of phytoalexin is undoubtedly an outstanding one since it has …

Certain isolates of the plant-pathogenic fungus Nectria haematococca mating population VI
(MPVI) contain dispensable chromosomes that are unstable during sexual reproduction …
