Hyaloperonospora Arabidopsidis

	Hyaloperonospora Arabidopsidis ''Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis'' is a species from the family Peronosporaceae. It is an obligate parasite and the causal agent of the downy mildew of the plant model organism ''Arabidopsis thaliana''. While ''H. arabidopsidis'' has for a long time been subsumed under ''Peronospora parasitica'' (now ''Hyaloperonospora parasitica''), recent studies have shown that ''H. parasitica'' is restricted to ''Capsella bursa-pastoris'' as a host plant. Like the other ''Hyaloperonospora'' species, ''H. arabidopsidis'' is highly specialized to ''Arabidopsis thaliana''.

picture info	Arabidopsis Thaliana ''Arabidopsis thaliana'', the thale cress, mouse-ear cress or arabidopsis, is a small flowering plant native to Eurasia and Africa. ''A. thaliana'' is considered a weed; it is found along the shoulders of roads and in disturbed land. A winter annual with a relatively short lifecycle, ''A. thaliana'' is a popular model organism in plant biology and genetics. For a complex multicellular eukaryote, ''A. thaliana'' has a relatively small genome around 135 mega base pairs. It was the first plant to have its genome sequenced, and is a popular tool for understanding the molecular biology of many plant traits, including flower development and light sensing. Description ''Arabidopsis thaliana'' is an annual (rarely biennial) plant, usually growing to 20–25 cm tall. The leaves form a rosette at the base of the plant, with a few leaves also on the flowering stem. The basal leaves are green to slightly purplish in color, 1.5–5 cm long, and 2–10 mm broad, with an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Peronosporaceae Peronosporaceae are a family of water moulds that contains 21 genera, comprising more than 600 species. Most of them are called downy mildews. Peronosporaceae are obligate biotrophic plant pathogens. They parasitise their host plants as an intercellular mycelium using haustoria to penetrate the host cells. The downy mildews reproduce asexually by forming sporangia on distinctive white sporangiophores usually formed on the lower surface of infected leaves. These constitute the "downy mildew". The sporangia are wind-dispersed to the surface of other leaves. According to the genus concerned, the sporangia may then germinate by forming zoospores, thus resembling ''Phytophthora'', or by germ-tube. In the latter case, the sporangia behave as conidia and are often referred to as such. Sexual reproduction is via oospores. The parasitised plants are angiosperms or gymnosperms, and most Peronosporaceae are pathogens of herbaceous dicots. Some downy mildew genera have a more restricted ...

	Hyaloperonospora Parasitica ''Hyaloperonospora parasitica'' is an oomycete from the family Peronosporaceae. It has been considered for a long time to cause downy mildew of a variety of species within the Brassicaceae, on which the disease can cause economically important damage by killing seedlings or affecting the quality of produce intended for freezing. ''Hyaloperonospora parasitica''http://www.plantwise.org/KnowledgeBank/Datasheet.aspx?dsid=39723 causes downy mildew on a wide range of many different plants. It belongs to the Kingdom Chromista, the phylum Oomycota, and the family Peronosporaceae. The former name for ''H. parasitica'' was ''Peronospora parasitica'' until it was reclassified and put in the genus Hyaloperonospora. It is an especially vicious disease on crops of the family Brassicaceae. It is most famous for being a model pathogen of ''Arabidopsis thaliana'' which is a model organism used for experimental purposes. Accordingly, the former ''Hyaloperonospora'' parasitica has been split into a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Capsella Bursa-pastoris ''Capsella bursa-pastoris'', known as shepherd's purse because of its triangular flat fruits, which are purse-like, is a small annual and ruderal flowering plant in the mustard family (Brassicaceae). It is native to eastern Europe and Asia minor, but is naturalized and considered a common weed in many parts of the world, especially in colder climates, including British Isles, where it is regarded as an archaeophyte,Preston CD, Pearman DA & Dines TD (2002) New Atlas of the British Flora. Oxford University Press North America and China, but also in the Mediterranean and North Africa. ''C. bursa-pastoris'' is the second-most prolific wild plant in the world, and is common on cultivated ground and waysides and meadows. Scientists have referred to this species as a 'protocarnivore', since it has been found that its seeds attract and kill nematodes as a means to locally enrich the soil.

	Hyaloperonospora ''Hyaloperonospora'' is a genus of oomycete, obligate, plant pathogens that was originally considered to be part of ''Peronospora''. Species in this group produce a disease called downy mildew and can infect many important crops. From the 19 downy mildew producing genera, ''Hyaloperonospora'' has been grouped with ''Perofascia'' in the brassicolous downy mildews. In the group of downy mildews, ''Hyaloperonospora'' is the third biggest genus. The most famous species in the genus is the ''Hyaloperonospora parasitica'', or also known as ''Hyaloperonospora arabidopsis''. This species has become a model organism from its ability to infect the model plant ''Arabidopsis thaliana''. It is used to study plant-pathogen interactions, and is currently the only ''Hyaloperonospora'' species that has an assembled genome. History In 2002, ''Hyaloperonospora'' was discovered and described by Constantinescu, O. and Fatehi,J. using morphological and molecular characteristics. Later, Göker ''et al' ...

	Peronosporales The Peronosporales are an order of water moulds (class Oomycetes) which can be pathogenic. Many diseases of plants are sometimes classified under this order, but are sometimes considered members of order Pythiales. Some of these pathogenic protists include the organisms responsible for potato blight, eucalyptus dieback, sudden oak death, and blue mold ''Peronospora hyoscyami'' f.sp. ''tabacina'' is a plant pathogen infecting tobacco that causes blue mold. It is an oomycete (a fungus-like organism) that is highly destructive toward seed plants. It is very prevalent in humid farming zones, .... Further genetic studies may place these organisms more definitively in one order or another. References Heterokont orders {{plant-disease-stub ...

picture info	Water Mould Plant Pathogens And Diseases Water (chemical formula ) is an inorganic, transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance, which is the main constituent of Earth's hydrosphere and the fluids of all known living organisms (in which it acts as a solvent). It is vital for all known forms of life, despite not providing food, energy or organic micronutrients. Its chemical formula, H2O, indicates that each of its molecules contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms, connected by covalent bonds. The hydrogen atoms are attached to the oxygen atom at an angle of 104.45°. "Water" is also the name of the liquid state of H2O at standard temperature and pressure. A number of natural states of water exist. It forms precipitation in the form of rain and aerosols in the form of fog. Clouds consist of suspended droplets of water and ice, its solid state. When finely divided, crystalline ice may precipitate in the form of snow. The gaseous state of water is steam or water vapor. Water co ...

picture info	Eudicot Diseases The eudicots, Eudicotidae, or eudicotyledons are a clade of flowering plants mainly characterized by having two seed leaves upon germination. The term derives from Dicotyledons. Traditionally they were called tricolpates or non-magnoliid dicots by previous authors. The botanical terms were introduced in 1991 by evolutionary botanist James A. Doyle and paleobotanist Carol L. Hotton to emphasize the later evolutionary divergence of tricolpate dicots from earlier, less specialized, dicots. Numerous familiar plants are eudicots, including many common food plants, trees, and ornamentals. Some common and familiar eudicots include sunflower, dandelion, forget-me-not, cabbage, apple, buttercup, maple, and macadamia. Most leafy trees of midlatitudes also belong to eudicots, with notable exceptions being magnolias and tulip trees which belong to magnoliids, and ''Ginkgo biloba'', which is not an angiosperm.
