Special Issue “The Paths of Plant Pathogens—Interactions with Host and Nonhosts and Insight of Mechanisms of Pathogenesis”

Dr Yoana Kizheva, member of WG2 and WG3, serves as a guest editor for the Special Issue “The Paths of Plant Pathogens—Interactions with Host and Nonhosts and Insight of Mechanisms of Pathogenesis”.

This Special Issue will appear in the MDPI journal Pathogens (ISSN 2076-0817; IF 3.7 in 2022) and is focused on the prevalence and the ability of pathogenic organisms to moderate their mechanisms in order to expand the numbers of their potential hosts. Original research articles, review articles and case studies concerning these main topics will be considered. However, other closely related studies in the field are also welcomed. Several topics will be covered, including, but not limited to:

  • Biodiversity of plant pathogenic microbiome (bacteria, fungi, bacteriophages, etc.);
  • Interactions between plants and their pathogens (microorganisms and parasitic plants);
  • Immune response of plants to pathogens;
  • Pathogenic potential of cross-over pathogens;
  • Plants as reservoirs and potential new hosts.

For more details, such as the opportunity of having a full waver for the Article Processing Charges, please contact Dr Yoana Kizheva.

The deadline for the submission of manuscripts has been extended to 20 June 2025.

With kind regards,
