Botrytis cinerea is a necrotrophic pathogen that induces host cell death, causing substantial economic losses in agriculture. In this study, we show that functional depletion of INOSITOL AUXOTROPHY 80 (INO80), a nuclear factor involved in local chromatin remodeling, reduces the susceptibility of ...
Tea anthracnose caused by Glomerella cingulata threatens yield and quality, while resistance to legacy fungicides highlights the need for new modes of action. We characterized the antifungal activity and mechanism of bifemetstrobin against G. cingulata by combining efficacy assays with cell ...
Staphylococcus aureus is a major human pathogen responsible for severe infections. While traditionally described as extracellular, increasing evidence establishes S. aureus as a facultative intracellular pathogen. Intracellularity contributes to immune evasion, dissemination, and antibiotic failu...
