CUIQINGY's peer review
I think your outline is great as it has well-organized sub-headings and clear and comprehensive points. Below are some of my suggestions, hopefully you find them helpful.

'''Taxobox synonyms:


 * There are 6 synonyms in total on mycobank (link: http://www.mycobank.org/Biolomics.aspx?Table=Mycobank&MycoBankNr_=292407), your taxobox is missing Helminthosporium brassicae which is identified by Henn. in 1902. I also noticed that only Helminthosporium brassicicola is a obligate synonym among them, and I am not sure if you should mention both facultative and obligate synonyms as the wiki page for Aspergillus versicolor only mentioned obligate synonyms.

Lead:


 * I think you have a good lead as you have covered the most important information about your fungus from each section.

Physiology:


 * Several points in this section are about morphology and growth so I would recommend you to create a growth and morphology sub-heading and place these points under that section.
 * More detailed morphological characteristics can be included. For example, according to ref #7 (I think this reference includes a lot of detailed morphological descriptions that you may want to add), conidia are arranged in long chains with usually larger spores at first then decrease in size as the chain grows.

Habitat and ecology:


 * I think the first point is probably more suited as part of the Plant disease sub-headings.
 * I found that the CMI Descriptions of Pathogenic Fungi and Bacteria by Ellis (ref#2) also stated the geographic distribution which is predominantly in N.W. Europe but can also be found in a number of other areas.

In this laboratory:


 * I think this section is great as you include info in different aspects including in vitro growth, early research and new research directions.
 * Ref #7 also have detailed colony morphology description of stable isolates on agar and I would recommend you to expand this section by adding them to the first point.
 * You misspelled the word juice.

Plant disease:


 * You mentioned the hosts of disease in the lead section, you may also consider mentioning again in this section.
 * I think more details can be added, and I found some info that you can probably use to expand this section:
 * In the paper Infection cycle of Alternaria brassicicola on Brassica oleracea leaves under growth room conditions (ref #8), the author also mentioned factors that can influence early stage infection and stated that wind is the most important factor for spreading at the begining of the discussion.
 * The route of transmission is seed-borne according to ref #2.

Treatment:


 * This section is great! I really like that you specified different treatment and mentioned emerging resistance.

Additional suggestions:


 * The page may look better If you align all pictures to the right side.
 * Remember to place all reference tags after comma or period with no break in between.

Hope my suggestions will be helpful as you finalize your article and good luck with your final article!CUIQINGY (talk) 02:17, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

Hello,


 * I think you have a great draft for you article. The lead summarizes the article very well however I don’t think you need to mention it’s kingdom and phylum in the lead. Your article lists the facts in a neutral tone without bias. Also you used the articles relatively equally. I really enjoy the economic impact section since it is amazing to see how something so small can have such a global impact.

Things to consider
 * perhaps include a section for taxonomy and the history of the fungus so you can put the kingdom and phylum and maybe how the fungus was discovered and named
 * I think the order of the article can be modified a little by not having the economic impact first since we don’t know much about the fungus yet. Perhaps changing it to physiology, habitat and ecology, in the laboratory, plant disease, economic impact, treatment.
 * make sure to check the spelling in the “ in the laboratory” section. Also if you included a history section you could perhaps include that information there and put a subsection for laboratory results
 * maybe you could include a section on how this fungus can infect humans and expand on if there are any cases in which people were severely affected and if there is treatment as well

Questions
 * is there more information on the transmission and infection of humans since it is a respiratory allergen?
 * does the treatment for the plants infected with fungus lower the appearance of people infected with the fungi as well?

Articles to consider
 * Cloning of a Gene Encoding an Alt a 1 Isoallergen Differentially Expressed by the Necrotrophic Fungus Alternaria brassicicola during Arabidopsis Infection by Robert A. Cramer, Christopher B. Lawrence. Appl. Environ. Microbiol. Apr 2003, 69 (4) 2361-2364; DOI: 10.1128/AEM.69.4.2361-2364.2003
 * Identification and toxicity of Alternaria brassicicola, the causal agent of dark leaf spot disease of Brassica species grown in Thailand.by: Pattanamahakul, P. ; Strange, R. N. DOI: 10.1046/j.1365-3059.1999.00406.x

 * reference section OK, make sure that your ref tags always come immediately after punctuation where present, without any space
 * you probably should include a morphology section rather than placing all this information in physiology
 * I lightly edited the language in your first paragraph and elsewhere
