Sweet Pepper cv. Lai Lai Ripeness Stage Influences Susceptibility to Mycotoxinogenic Alternaria alternata Causing Black Mold

mycolabadmin

This research shows that green and red peppers can both develop black mold caused by a fungus called Alternaria alternata, but at different rates depending on temperature. Red peppers are more susceptible to severe infection at room temperature, while both types are similarly affected during cold storage. Importantly, infected peppers can produce toxins harmful to human health, emphasizing the need for preventing fungal infection in pepper crops before harvest and storage.

Genome Sequencing of Three Pathogenic Fungi Provides Insights into the Evolution and Pathogenic Mechanisms of the Cobweb Disease on Cultivated Mushrooms

This research sequenced the DNA of three fungi that cause cobweb disease, a serious problem in mushroom farming that can destroy entire crops. Scientists discovered that these fungi spread disease by producing special enzymes that break down mushroom cell walls and releasing toxic compounds. By understanding the genetic basis of how these fungi attack mushrooms, researchers can now develop better strategies to prevent infection and protect valuable mushroom crops.
