Arabidopsis is susceptible to infection by a downy mildew fungus.
Eckhard Koch,Alan J. Slusarenko +1 more
TL;DR: The differential interaction of an isolate of P. parasitica with two strains of Arabidopsis opens up the possibility of cloning resistance determinants from a host that is very amenable to genetic and molecular analysis.
Phakopsora pachyrhizi, the causal agent of Asian soybean rust
Katharina Goellner,Marco Loehrer,Caspar Langenbach,Uwe Conrath,Eckhard Koch,Ulrich Schaffrath +5 more
TL;DR: This review provides detailed information on the taxonomy and molecular biology of the pathogen, and summarizes strategies to combat the threat of this devastating disease.

Evaluation of biocontrol preparations and plant extracts for the control of Phytophthora infestans on potato leaves
TL;DR: The results of the experiments on potted plants indicated direct effects on the pathogen for all agents except the extract of S. canadensis, but other mode of actions, e.g. induced resistance, could not be ruled out.

Evaluation of non-chemical seed treatment methods for the control of Alternaria dauci and A. radicina on carrot seeds
Eckhard Koch,Annegret Schmitt,Dietrich Stephan,C. Kromphardt,Marga Jahn,Hermann-Josef Krauthausen,Gustaf Forsberg,S. Werner,T. Amein,Sandra A. I. Wright,F. Tinivella,Maria Lodovica Gullino,S. J. Roberts,Jan M. van der Wolf,Steven P.C. Groot +14 more
TL;DR: Aerated steam treatment was, apart from the thiram-containing chemical standard, the best single treatment, and its performance may at least partially be due to extensive pre-testing, resulting in dosages optimally adapted to the respective seed lot.

Evaluation of non-chemical seed treatment methods for the control of Phoma valerianellae on lamb’s lettuce seeds
Annegret Schmitt,Eckhard Koch,Dietrich Stephan,C. Kromphardt,Marga Jahn,H. J. Krauthausen,G. Forsberg,S. Werner,T. Amein,Sandra A. I. Wright,F. Tinivella,J. van der Wolf,Steven P.C. Groot +12 more
TL;DR: The most effective alternative seed treatments identified in the present study, aerated steam, hot water, electron treatment and thyme oil (0.1%), can be recommended for eradication of P. valerianellae from lamb`s lettuce seeds in organic farming.
