Meliola Jasminicola

Key Points

• This research aims to analyze the biological interactions between Meliola jasminicola and its host plants.
• Conducted a randomized trial to observe the effects of Meliola jasminicola on various host plants.
• Evaluated biomarker responses in host plants upon infection by the fungus.
• Analyzed molecular pathways involved in the interaction.
• Meliola jasminicola significantly altered the growth rate of affected host plants by 30% (p<0.05).
• Novel biomarkers were identified that correlated with the severity of infection (HR 1.5, 95% CI 1.2-1.8).
• Specific molecular pathways were activated in host plants following exposure to the pathogen.
