Infection mechanism of Botryosphaeria dothidea and the disease resistance strategies of Chinese hickory (Carya cathayensis).

ABSTRACT: Botryosphaeria dothidea is the main fungal pathogen responsible for causing Chinese hickory (Carya cathayensis) dry rot disease, posing a serious threat to the Chinese hickory industry. Understanding the molecular basis of B. dothidea infection and the host's resistance mechanisms is crucial for controlling and managing the ecological impact of Chinese hickory dry rot disease. This study utilized ultrastructural observations to reveal the process of B. dothidea infection and colonization in Chinese hickory, and investigated the impact of B. dothidea infection on Chinese hickory biochemical indicators and plant hormone levels. Through high-throughput transcriptome sequencing, the gene expression profiles associated with different stages of B. dothidea infection in Chinese hickory and their
