Gene Mining for Conserved, Non-Annotated Proteins of <i>Podosphaera xanthii</i> Identifies Novel Target Candidates for Controlling Powdery Mildews by Spray-Induced Gene Silencing

Gene Mining for Conserved, Non-Annotated Proteins of <i>Podosphaera xanthii</i> Identifies Novel Target Candidates for Controlling Powdery Mildews by Spray-Induced Gene Silencing

The powdery mildew fungus <i>Podosphaera xanthii</i> is one of the most important limiting factors for cucurbit production worldwide. Despite the significant efforts made by breeding and chemical companies, effective control of this pathogen remains elusive to growers. In this work, we e...
