Abstract
The domains of unknown function (DUF) superfamilies contain proteins with conserved amino acid sequences without known functions. Among them, DUF668 was indicated widely involving the stress response of plants. However, understanding ZoDUF668 is still lacking. Here, 12 ZoDUF668 genes were identified in ginger by the bioinformatics method and unevenly distributed on six chromosomes. Conserved domain analysis showed that members of the same subfamily had similar conserved motifs and gene structures. The promoter region of ZoDUF668s contained the light, plant hormone and stress-responsive elements. The prediction of miRNA targeting relationship showed that nine ginger miRNAs targeted four ZoDUF668 genes through cleavage. The expression patterns of 12 ZoDUF668 genes under biotic and abiotic stress were analyzed using RT-qPCR. The results showed that the expression of seven ZoDUF668 genes was significantly downregulated under Fusarium solani infection, six ZoDUF668 genes were upregulated under cold stress, and five ZoDUF668 genes were upregulated under waterlogging stress. These results indicate that the ZoDUF668 gene has different expression patterns under different stress conditions. This study provides excellent candidate genes and provides a reference for stress-resistance research in ginger.

Abstract
Chitinases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of chitin, the primary components of fungal cell walls, play key roles in defense responses, symbiotic associations, plant growth, and stress tolerance. In this study, 23 chitinase genes were identified in watermelon (Citrullus lanatus [Thunb.]) and classified into five classes through homology search and phylogenetic analysis. The genes with similar exon-intron structures and conserved domains were clustered into the same class. The putative cis-elements involved in the responses to phytohormone, stress, and plant development were identified in their promoter regions. A tissue-specific expression analysis showed that the ClChi genes were primarily expressed in the roots (52.17%), leaves (26.09%), and flowers (34.78%). Moreover, qRT-PCR results indicate that ClChis play multifaceted roles in the interaction between plant/environment. More ClChi members were induced by Race 2 of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum, and eight genes were expressed at higher levels on the seventh day after inoculation with Races 1 and 2, suggesting that these genes play a key role in the resistance of watermelon to Fusarium wilt. Collectively, these results improve knowledge of the chitinase gene family in watermelon species and help to elucidate the roles played by chitinases in the responses of watermelon to various stresses.

Abstract
The outbreak of Fusarium head blight (FHB) poses a serious threat to wheat production as it leads to both significant yield losses and accumulation of several mycotoxins including deoxynivalenol (DON) in the grains, which are harmful to human and livestock. To date, hundreds of FHB-resistance-related quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been reported, but only a few of them have been cloned and used for breeding. Small interfering RNAs (siRNA) have been reported in plants to mediate host defense against pathogens, but they have rarely been reported in wheat-FHB interaction. In order to identify the key siRNAs that can potentially be used in the improvement of resistance to FHB, siRNAs from the spikes of an FHB-resistant variety Sumai 3 and an FHB-susceptible variety of Chinese Spring (CS) were sequenced after F. graminearum infection and mock inoculation, respectively. The expression patterns of the siRNAs of interest were analyzed. A total of 4019 siRNAs of high-confidence were identified, with 131 being CS-specific, 309 Sumai 3-specific and 3071 being common in both varieties. More than 87% of these siRNAs were 24 nt in length. An overall down-regulation trend was found for siRNAs in the spikes of both varieties after being infected with F. graminearum. The expression patterns for Triticum aestivum Dicer-like 3 (TaDCL3) that synthesizes 24 nt siRNAs were validated by qRT-PCR, which were positively correlated with those of the siRNAs. A total of 85% of the differentially expressed genes putatively targeted by the siRNAs were significantly up-regulated after infection, showing a negative correlation with the overall down-regulated expression of siRNAs. Interestingly, the majority of the up-regulated genes are annotated as disease resistance. These results suggested that the inhibition of siRNA by F. graminearum up-regulated the disease resistance genes, which were putatively suppressed by siRNAs through RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). Consequently, the resistant capability to F. graminearum infection was enhanced. This study provides novel clues for investigating the function of siRNA in wheat-F. graminearum interaction.

Abstract
Soil-borne pathogens pose a major threat to food production worldwide, particularly under global change and with growing populations. Yet, we still know very little about how the soil microbiome regulates the abundance of soil pathogens and their impact on plant health. Here we combined field surveys with experiments to investigate the relationships of soil properties and the structure and function of the soil microbiome with contrasting plant health outcomes. We find that soil acidification largely impacts bacterial communities and reduces the capacity of soils to combat fungal pathogens. In vitro assays with microbiomes from acidified soils further highlight a declined ability to suppress Fusarium, a globally important plant pathogen. Similarly, when we inoculate healthy plants with an acidified soil microbiome, we show a greatly reduced capacity to prevent pathogen invasion. Finally, metagenome sequencing of the soil microbiome and untargeted metabolomics reveals a down regulation of genes associated with the synthesis of sulfur compounds and reduction of key traits related to sulfur metabolism in acidic soils. Our findings suggest that changes in the soil microbiome and disruption of specific microbial processes induced by soil acidification can play a critical role for plant health.

Abstract
Global climate change and the urgency to transform food crops require substantial breeding efforts to meet the food security challenges. Barley, an important cereal, has remained a preferential host of phytotoxic diseases caused by the Fusarium graminearum that not only severely reduces the crop yield but also compromises its food quality due to the accumulation of mycotoxins. To develop resistance against Fusarium infections, a better understanding of the host-pathogen interaction is inevitable and could be tracked through molecular insights. Here, we focused precisely on the potential gene targets that are exclusive to this devastating pathosystem and could be harnessed for fast breeding of barley. We also discuss the eco-friendly applications of nanobio hybrid and the CRISPR technology for barley protection. This review covers the critical information gaps within the subject and may be useful for the sustainable improvement of barley from the perspective of food and environmental safety concerns.

Abstract
Underground infection of Fusarium oxysporum resulted in great yield losses in chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat.) industry. However, the effect of F. oxysporum root disease on the terpenes production in above- and below-ground parts of plant is completely unexplored. The aim of this study was to investigate the systematic impact of Fusarium infection underground on the terpene production in aboveground parts of chrysanthemum. Terpene production in above- and below-ground parts was profiled in a time series of post-inoculation by GC-MS. Total terpenes were significantly induced from roots and leaves of Fusarium-infected versus healthy plants. These terpenes included monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes and diterpenes, in which sesquiterpenes were primarily induced in roots and leaves, while monoterpenes were produced only in leaves. Through transcriptome analysis, 8 differentially expressed terpene synthase genes (TPSs) were screened out. The relative expression levels of 8 TPS genes at different developmental stage and tissues indicated the spatial delay of the TPS genes in leaves. The induced terpenes from roots and leaves showed consistency with the expression pattern of TPS genes. The biochemical function of Cm-j-TPS1/2/7 were verified by enzymatic assay. Additionally, it's found that the content of salicylic acid (SA) in root and leaf significantly increased by F. oxysporum infection, suggesting a role of the SA signaling pathway in defense. Together, these results reveal the defense response of above- and below-ground parts of plants to root fungal attack and provide a theoretical basis for the effective prediction and control of F. oxysporum infection in chrysanthemum.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Invasive fusariosis (IF) is considered an emerging fungal disease and an important problem worldwide that increasingly affects immunocompromised individuals. There is currently concern about establishing the genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationship of the species Fusarium causing invasive fusariosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The aim of this study was to characterize the molecular profile and morphological characteristics of Fusarium species isolated from 21 patients with invasive fusariosis. Multilocus sequence typing was performed for molecular identification of the following genes: the second largest subunit of the RNA polymerase gene (RPB2) and elongation factor 1 alpha (EF-1α). The morphological features of different species were carefully described and revised by experienced mycologists. RESULTS Morphological and molecular analyses revealed that the F. solani species complex (FSSC) and F. oxysporum species complex (FOSC) were the most common species isolated from patients with invasive fusariosis; FSSC-2 h (5), FSSC-1 (2) and FOSC-183 (2) were the most frequent haplotypes. The macroscopic characterization revealed great variation in the tonalities of the FSSC colonies and particularities amongst the species in relation to the macroconidia structures, while the FOSC was more homogeneous and presented shades from white to lilac. CONCLUSIONS Our study characterized the diversity, haplotypes, and morphological aspects of Fusarium species and the haplotypes prevalent in patients with invasive fusariosis. FSSC and FSSC-2 h were the predominant species and haplotype, respectively. Although we have described interesting morphological aspects in Fusarium species, particularly haplotypes, their identification cannot rely on phenotypical aspects. Molecular biology techniques are necessary and should be introduced for routine use in mycology laboratories.

Abstract
Nowadays, free flap reconstruction in devastating lower limb trauma is a standard procedure in reconstructive surgery. The greatest factor directly affecting limb salvage is still the risk of infectious complications, whether local or systemic. Fungal wound infections are not among the most common infection complications in surgery, but their low incidence is compensated for by their fulminant and serious course, as well as severe local tissue destruction and strong angio-invasive potential together with the possibility of dissemination. In this case study, we present an example of a devastating lower leg injury, solved using latissimus free flap reconstruction, with subsequent difficult and prolonged healing, due to an invasive filamentous fungi infection. In the final part of the article, we focus briefly on the occurrence of similar cases in the literature.

Abstract
Numerous quantitative trait loci (QTL) have been mapped in tetraploid and hexaploid wheat and wheat relatives, mostly with simple sequence repeat (SSR) or single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. To conduct meta-analysis of QTL requires projecting them onto a common genomic framework, either a consensus genetic map or genomic sequence. The latter strategy is pursued here. Of 774 QTL mapped in wheat and wheat relatives found in the literature, 585 (75.6%) were successfully projected onto the Aegilops tauschii pseudomolecules. QTL mapped with SNP markers were more successfully projected (92.2%) than those mapped with SSR markers (66.2%). The QTL were not distributed homogeneously along chromosome arms. Their frequencies increased in the proximal-to-distal direction but declined in the most distal regions and were weakly correlated with recombination rates along the chromosome arms. Databases for projected SSR markers and QTL were constructed and incorporated into the Ae. tauschii JBrowse. To facilitate meta-QTL analysis, eight clusters of QTL were used to estimate standard deviations ([Formula: see text]) of independently mapped QTL projected onto the Ae. tauschii genome sequence. The standard deviations [Formula: see text] were modeled as an exponential decay function of recombination rates along the Ae. tauschii chromosomes. We implemented four hypothesis tests for determining the membership of query QTL. The hypothesis tests and estimation procedure for [Formula: see text] were implemented in a web portal for meta-analysis of projected QTL. Twenty-one QTL for Fusarium head blight resistance mapped on wheat chromosomes 3A, 3B, and 3D were analyzed to illustrate the use of the portal for meta-QTL analyses.
