Gibberella avenacea is a fungus that infects plants. [1]
Gibberella is a genus of fungi in the family Nectriaceae.
Gibberella bresadolae is a fungal plant pathogen.
Gibberella pulicaris is a fungal plant pathogen infecting several hosts including potato, strawberry, hop, alfalfa and Douglas-fir.
Gibberella zeae, also known by the name of its anamorph Fusarium graminearum, is a fungal plant pathogen which causes fusarium head blight (FHB), a devastating disease on wheat and barley. The pathogen is responsible for billions of dollars in economic losses worldwide each year. Infection causes shifts in the amino acid composition of wheat, resulting in shriveled kernels and contaminating the remaining grain with mycotoxins, mainly deoxynivalenol (DON), which inhibits protein biosynthesis; and zearalenone, an estrogenic mycotoxin. These toxins cause vomiting, liver damage, and reproductive defects in livestock, and are harmful to humans through contaminated food. Despite great efforts to find resistance genes against F. graminearum, no completely resistant variety is currently available. Research on the biology of F. graminearum is directed towards gaining insight into more details about the infection process and reveal weak spots in the life cycle of this pathogen to develop fungicides that can protect wheat from scab infection.
Gibberella stilboides is a nectriacine fungus. It is a plant pathogen, and causes collar rot in coffee seedings.
Gibberella xylarioides is a species of fungus in the family Nectriaceae. It is the causative agent of coffee wilt disease (CWD). The disease caused a severe problem in several countries in West and East Africa during the 1940s and 1950s. CWD was first seen in Coffea liberica.
Gibberella baccata is a fungal plant pathogen. It is a common finding worldwide. It is common in soil and in woody plants, especially in tree tissues.
Gibberella cyanogena is a fungal plant pathogen.
Gibberella tricincta is a fungal plant pathogen. Gibberella tricincta produces the antifungal alkaloid Fungerin.
Gibberella fujikuroi is a fungal plant pathogen. It causes bakanae disease in rice seedlings.
Drechslera avenacea is a fungal plant pathogen.
Vomitoxin, also known as deoxynivalenol (DON), is a type B trichothecene, an epoxy-sesquiterpenoid. This mycotoxin occurs predominantly in grains such as wheat, barley, oats, rye, and corn, and less often in rice, sorghum, and triticale. The occurrence of deoxynivalenol is associated primarily with Fusarium graminearum and F. culmorum, both of which are important plant pathogens which cause fusarium head blight in wheat and gibberella or fusarium ear blight in corn. The incidence of fusarium head blight is strongly associated with moisture at the time of flowering (anthesis), and the timing of rainfall, rather than the amount, is the most critical factor. However, increased amount of moisture towards harvest time has been associated with lower amount of vomitoxin in wheat grain due to leaching of toxins. Furthermore, deoxynivalenol contents are significantly affected by the susceptibility of cultivars towards Fusarium species, previous crop, tillage practices, and fungicide use. It occurs abundantly in grains in Norway due to heavy rainfall.
In enzymology, a farnesyl-diphosphate kinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Chondrina avenacea is a species of small, air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Chondrinidae.
Lachnagrostis filiformis is a species of grass known by the common names Pacific bent grass, New Zealand wind grass, fairy grass, or blown-grass. It is native to Australia, New Zealand, and other Pacific Islands including New Guinea and Easter Island. While it is found in a wide variety of habitats, it seems particularly invasive in areas with damp soils, such as areas near bodies of water. It has been introduced to southern Africa, the United Kingdom, Taiwan, the southern United States and Mexico.
Lycochloa is a genus of Lebanese plants in the grass family. The only known species is Lycochloa avenacea, found only in Lebanon.
Gemmulimitra avenacea is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Mitridae, the miters or miter snails.
Vexilla is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Muricidae, the murex snails or rock snails.
Ent-kaurene oxidase (EC 1.14.14.86, Formerly EC 1.14.13.78) is an enzyme with systematic name ent-kaur-16-ene,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (hydroxylating). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
Jaminia is a genus of air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks in the subfamily Eninae of the family Enidae.
