2022 review
Genetic Characteristics and Metabolic Interactions between Pseudocercospora fijiensis and Banana: Progress toward Controlling Black Sigatoka
[Review of ]. PLANTS-BASEL, 11(7).
author keywords: black Sigatoka; cell wall; dispensable chromosomes; Dothideomycetes; effectors; genomics; host resistance; pathogenicity; secondary metabolism
TL;DR:
P. fijiensis has been identified as having high evolutionary potential, given its large genome size, ability to reproduce both sexually and asexually, and long-distance spore dispersal, and multiple control measures are needed for the sustainable control of black Sigatoka disease.

A polyketide synthase gene cluster required for pathogenicity of Pseudocercospora fijiensis on banana
PLOS ONE, 16(10), e0258981.
Ed(s): R. Wilson
MeSH headings : Ascomycota / genetics; Ascomycota / pathogenicity; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Mycoses / microbiology; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Polyketide Synthases / genetics
TL;DR:
An important role for the PKS10-2 polyketide pathway in pathogenicity of Pseudocercospora fijiensis is supported, and a possible role for this pathway in disease development by other PseudOCercOSpora species is suggested.

Engineering Cercospora disease resistance via expression of Cercospora nicotianae cercosporin-resistance genes and silencing of cercosporin production in tobacco
PLOS ONE, 15(3), e0230362.
Ed(s): R. Wilson
MeSH headings : Ascomycota / drug effects; Ascomycota / genetics; Disease Resistance / drug effects; Disease Resistance / genetics; Drug Resistance, Fungal / drug effects; Drug Resistance, Fungal / genetics; Gene Expression Regulation, Fungal / drug effects; Gene Silencing / drug effects; Genes, Fungal; Genetic Engineering; Perylene / analogs & derivatives; Perylene / pharmacology; Plants, Genetically Modified; Tobacco / microbiology; Transformation, Genetic; Transgenes
TL;DR:
It is concluded that expression of fungal cercosporin autoresistance genes as well as silencing of the cercsporin pathway are both effective strategies for engineering resistance to Cercospora diseases where cercOSporin plays a critical role.

2019 journal article
A novel polyketide synthase gene cluster in the plant pathogenic fungus Pseudocercospora fijiensis
PLOS ONE, 14(2), e0212229.
Ed(s): O. Lespinet
MeSH headings : Ascomycota / enzymology; Ascomycota / genetics; Fungal Proteins / biosynthesis; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Gene Expression Regulation, Enzymologic / physiology; Gene Expression Regulation, Fungal / physiology; Multigene Family; Musa / microbiology; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Polyketide Synthases / biosynthesis; Polyketide Synthases / genetics
TL;DR:
Genome analysis of the P. fijiensis PKS8-1 gene identified it as part of a gene cluster including genes encoding two transcription factors, a regulatory protein, a glyoxylase/beta-lactamase-like protein, an MFS transporter, a cytochrome P450, two aldo/keto reductases, a dehydrogenase, and a decarboxylase, which supports a role for this pathway in disease.

A polyketide synthase gene cluster associated with the sexual reproductive cycle of the banana pathogen, Pseudocercospora fijiensis
PLOS ONE, 14(7), e0220319.
Ed(s): O. Lespinet
MeSH headings : Ascomycota / enzymology; Ascomycota / genetics; Ascomycota / pathogenicity; Ascomycota / physiology; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Multigene Family; Musa / microbiology; Neurospora crassa / enzymology; Neurospora crassa / genetics; Phylogeny; Plant Diseases / genetics; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Plant Leaves / microbiology; Polyketide Synthases / genetics; Reproduction / genetics; Sequence Homology; Sordariales / enzymology; Sordariales / genetics
TL;DR:
This is the first report of a polyketide synthase pathway associated with spermagonia associated with P. fijiensis, and it is shown that PKS8-4 is more similar than Hybrid8-3 to PKS4.

Bioinformatics Prediction of Polyketide Synthase Gene Clusters from Mycosphaerella fijiensis
PLOS ONE, 11(7).
MeSH headings : Ascomycota / enzymology; Ascomycota / genetics; Computational Biology; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Fusarium / genetics; Genome, Fungal; Likelihood Functions; Multigene Family; Musa / microbiology; Open Reading Frames; Peptide Synthases / genetics; Phylogeny; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Polyketide Synthases / genetics; Polyketides; Protein Domains; Sequence Analysis, RNA
TL;DR:
RT-PCR and RNA-Seq analysis showed that the melanin PKS cluster was down-regulated in infected banana as compared to growth in culture, suggesting that they may encode polyketides important in pathogenicity.

Transcriptome sequencing of Mycosphaerella fijiensis during association with Musa acuminata reveals candidate pathogenicity genes
BMC GENOMICS, 17.
author keywords: Mycosphaerella fijiensis; Black Sigatoka; Transcriptome; Effectors; Secondary metabolism; Non-ribosomal peptide synthase; Fusicoccane; Domain of Unknown Function 3328; Salicylate hydroxylase; Dispensable chromosome
MeSH headings : Ascomycota / genetics; Ascomycota / pathogenicity; Fungal Proteins / biosynthesis; Fungal Proteins / genetics; High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing; Molecular Sequence Annotation; Musa / genetics; Musa / microbiology; Plant Diseases / genetics; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Plant Leaves / genetics; Plant Leaves / microbiology; Transcriptome / genetics; Virulence / genetics
TL;DR:
Major changes are revealed in the transcriptome of Mycosphaerella fijiensis, when associating with its host compared to during saprophytic growth in medium, and this analysis identified putative pathogenicity genes and also provides support for the existence of dispensable chromosomes in this fungus.

Characterization of Cercospora nicotianae Hypothetical Proteins in Cercosporin Resistance

TL;DR:
Analysis of 71cR conserved domains and secondary and tertiary structure identify the protein as having an NTF2-like superfamily DUF1348 domain with unknown function, to be intracellular and localized in the cytosol, and to have similarities to proteins in the steroid delta-isomerase family.
