| dc.description.abstract | Phytophthora cinnamomi is classified as one of the most devastating plant pathogens in the world. It has a destructive effect on more than 5000 horticultural and forestry species in the world, and especially on Castanea sativa. The genus Phytophthora belongs to the Class Oomycetes, a group of fungus like organisms which provoke plant diseases via motile zoospores. Control of this organism is considered very challenging because of the limited range of effective chemical inhibitors. The development of sustainable control measures for the future management of P. cinnamomi requires in-depth knowledge of the cellular and molecular bases of development and metabolism. The aim of this review was to identify molecular factors associated with the metabolism of P. cinnamomi by studying the genes implicated in fundamental metabolism using tools of bioinformatics. Also, some genes involved in pathogenicity will be cited and characterized, such as genes coding for transglycosylases. Genomic sequences of P. cinnamomi were analyzed using an open reading frame (ORF) finder. The identified ORFs products (proteins) were compared to sequences already described and with known functions present in databases such as NCBI and fungi database. In this way, homologous proteins were found, with the respective specific domains, to proteins involved in the metabolism and pathogenicity of Phytophthora ssp. | en_EN |
