Host−Pathogen Interactions in Leaf Petioles of Common Ash and Manchurian Ash Infected with Hymenoscyphus fraxineus
Nielsen, Lene R.; Nagy, Nina Elisabeth; Piqueras, Sara; Kosawang, Chatchai; Thygesen, Lisbeth G.; Hietala, Ari Mikko (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-02-05)Some common ash trees (Fraxinus excelsior) show tolerance towards shoot dieback caused by the invasive ascomycete Hymenoscyphus fraxineus. Leaf petioles are considered to serve as a pathogen colonization route to the shoots. ... -
Oxalate found in wood cell wall during incipient brown rot degradation
Füchtner, Sophie; Alfredsen, Gry; Thygesen, Lisbeth G. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-11-21)Brown rot fungi are a marvel and an enigma of Nature. They are capable of depolymerizing holocellulose within wood cell walls without significantly ineralizing lignin. The exact details behind this feat remain unknown, but ...
