Crivellia
''Crivellia'' is a genus of fungi in the family Pleosporaceae. It is a monotypic genus, containing the single species ''Crivellia papaveracea'', which causes leaf blight of opium poppy. The fungus is found in Europe, Australia, India, Japan, Nepal, Pakistan, South Africa, Turkey, USA and Zambia. "Agent Green" in Colombia In 2000, the government of Colombia proposed dispersing strains of ''Crivellia'' and ''Fusarium oxysporum'', also known as Agent Green, as a biological weapon to forcibly eradicate coca and other illegal crops. The weaponized strains were developed by the US government, who had conditioned their approval of Plan Colombia Plan Colombia was a United States foreign aid, military aid, and diplomatic initiative aimed at combating Colombian drug cartels and left-wing insurgent groups in Colombia.

Exserohilum
''Exserohilum'' is a genus of fungi in the family Pleosporaceae. The ''Exserohilum'' species are known for causing blight and human immune system diseases. The sexual reproductive (or ascigerous) states of Exserohilum species are known as Setosphaeria. The type species is ''Exserohilum turcicum''. This genus is among three dematiaceous that are categorized for containing pathogens leading to diseases like phaeohyphomycosis. Morphology ''Exserohilum'' is an asexual organism that reproduces through spores. These one-celled reproductive units are concave and can be seen in the suspensor. Taxonomy ''Exserohilum'' was circumscribed by K. Leonard and Edna Suggs in 1974 to contain species formerly placed in ''Bipolaris'' with distinctly protruding hila. Exsero which means stretch out and hilum which refers to the part of the organism. The truncate hila or hilum, protrudes from its distinct conidia which are ellipsoidal and distoseptate (forming a layer). Colonies of ''Exseroh ...

Curvularia
''Curvularia'' is a genus of hyphomycete (mold) fungi which can be pathogens but also act as beneficial partners of many plant species. They are common in soil. Most ''Curvularia'' species are found in tropical regions, though a few are found in temperate zones. ''Curvularia'' is defined by the type species ''C. lunata'' (Wakker) Boedijn. ''Curvularia lunata'' appears as shiny velvety-black, fluffy growth (on the fungus colony surface). These fluffy 'hairs', which really are branching, fine filamentous structures called hyphae, are divided inside by cell walls named septae (-> the hyphae are 'septate'). The walls of these hyphae contain dark pigments, which makes for their black appearance and which is called 'dematiaceous'. The hyphae produce brown spore bearing organs, 'conidiophores', which are distinguished by their 'geniculate'shape, meaning they have bends of abrupt kneelike angles. The immobile, asexual fungal spores born on those conidiophores, the conidia, poroconi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Cochliobolus
The fungal genus ''Cochliobolus'' includes 55 species, including the following plant pathogenic species: '' C. carbonum'', '' C. heterostrophus'', '' C. miyabeanus'', '' C. sativus'' and '' C. lunatus''. Heterothallism and homothallism Those fungi that need a partner to mate are referred to as heterothallic (self-sterile), and those fungi not needing a partner are referred to as homothallic (self-fertile). A study of DNA sequences of mating type Mating types are the microorganism equivalent to sexes in multicellular lifeforms and are thought to be the ancestor to distinct sexes. They also occur in macro-organisms such as fungi.

Cochliobolus Sativus
The fungus ''Cochliobolus sativus'' is the teleomorph (sexual stage) of ''Bipolaris sorokiniana'' (anamorph) which is the causal agent of a wide variety of cereal diseases. The pathogen can infect and cause disease on roots (where it is known as common root rot), leaf and stem, and head tissue. ''C. sativus'' is extremely rare in nature and thus it is the asexual or anamorphic stage which causes infections. The two most common diseases caused by ''B. sorokiniana'' are spot blotch and common root rot, mainly on wheat and barley crops. Identification The mycelium of ''B. sorokiniana'' is usually deep olive-brown. New cultures produce abundant simple conidiophores, which may be single or clustered and measure 6–10 x 110–220 μm with septations. Conidia develop laterally from pores beneath each conidiophore septum. Conidia are olive-brown and ovate to oblong, with rounded ends and a prominent basal scar. They measure 15–28 x 40–120 μm and are 3- to 10-septate. Some may b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
