Clade-Specific Biosurveillance of Pseudoperonospora cubensis Using Spore Traps for Precision Disease Management of Cucurbit Downy Mildew

PHYTOPATHOLOGY, 111(2), 312–320.

By: A. Rahman n, J. Standish n, K. D'Arcangelo n & L. Quesada-Ocampo  n

author keywords: disease control and pest management; epidemiology; oomycetes; pathogen detection
MeSH headings : Biosurveillance; Cucurbitaceae; Disease Management; North Carolina; Oomycetes / genetics; Plant Diseases; Spores
TL;DR: A multiplex qPCR assay was developed based on species- and clade-specific nuclear genomic markers that will significantly improve disease management of CDM by monitoring inoculum levels to determine the cucurbit crops at risk of infection throughout each growing season.

Genome Sequencing and Transcriptome Analysis of the Hop Downy Mildew Pathogen Pseudoperonospora humuli Reveal Species-Specific Genes for Molecular Detection

PHYTOPATHOLOGY, 109(8), 1354–1366.

By: A. Rahman n, E. Gongora-Castillo n, M. Bowman *, K. Childs *, D. Gent *, F. Martin *, L. Quesada-Ocampo  n

MeSH headings : Gene Expression Profiling; Humulus; Oomycetes / genetics; Oomycetes / pathogenicity; Peronospora; Plant Diseases / microbiology
TL;DR: Candidate markers identified through comparative genomics can be used for pathogen diagnostics in propagation material, such as rhizomes and vegetative cuttings, or adapted for biosurveillance of airborne sporangia, an important source of inoculum in hop downy mildew epidemics.

2018 journal article

Advances in Diagnostics of Downy Mildews: Lessons Learned from Other Oomycetes and Future Challenges

PLANT DISEASE, 102(2), 265–275.

By: S. Crandall *, A. Rahman n, L. Quesada-Ocampo  n, F. Martin *, G. Bilodeau * & T. Miles *

MeSH headings : Oomycetes / classification; Oomycetes / genetics; Peronospora / classification; Peronospora / genetics; Plant Diseases / etiology; Plant Diseases / microbiology
TL;DR: Recent advances in diagnostic tools that can be used to detect downy mildew remain understudied and advances in molecular detection techniques hold promise for rapid and in some cases, relatively inexpensive diagnosis. (via Semantic Scholar)

2017 journal article

Molecular approaches for biosurveillance of the cucurbit downy mildew pathogen, Pseudoperonospora cubensis

CANADIAN JOURNAL OF PLANT PATHOLOGY, 39(3), 282–296.

By: A. Rahman n, T. Miles *, F. Martin * & L. Quesada-Ocampo  n

author keywords: biosurveillance; diagnostics; downy mildew; genomics; next generation sequencing; oomycetes
TL;DR: Approaches to identify unique loci for rapid molecular diagnostics using genomic data, to develop molecular diagnostic tools that discriminate economically important pathogen alleles, and how to use moleculardiagnostics with current and future spore trap strategies for biosurveillance purposes of important downy mildew pathogens are discussed.
