Fungal pathogenicity genes in the age of ‘omics’ [PDF]
Molecular Plant Pathology, 2010 SUMMARYThe identification of the fungal genes essential for disease underpins the development of disease control strategies. Improved technologies for gene identification and functional analyses, as well as a plethora of sequenced fungal genomes, have led to the characterization of hundreds of genes, denoted as pathogenicity genes, which are required ...

Fungal phytases: from genes to applications
Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2020 Phytic acid stores 60-90% of the inorganic phosphorus in legumes, oil seeds, and cereals, making it inaccessible for metabolic processes in living systems. In addition, given its negative charge, phytic acid complexes with divalent cations, starch, and proteins.

Mononucleotide repeats are asymmetrically distributed in fungal genes [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2008 Systematic analyses of sequence features have resulted in a better characterisation of the organisation of the genome. A previous study in prokaryotes on the distribution of sequence repeats, which are notoriously variable and can disrupt the reading frame in genes, showed that these motifs are skewed towards gene termini, specifically the 5' end of ...

Fungal genes in the innovation and evolution of land plants [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2021 Although fungal association has been instrumental to the evolution of land plants, how genes of fungal origin might have contributed to major plant innovations remains unclear. In a recent study, we showed that a macro2 domain-containing gene likely acquired from mycorrhiza-like fungi is important in gametophore development of mosses, suggesting a role

The evolution of fungal metabolic pathways. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2014 Fungi contain a remarkable range of metabolic pathways, sometimes encoded by gene clusters, enabling them to digest most organic matter and synthesize an array of potent small molecules.

DIVERSIFY: A Fungal Multispecies Gene Expression Platform
ACS Synthetic Biology, 2021 Recent sequencing of numerous fungal species revealed large repertoires of putative biotechnologically relevant genes and secondary metabolite gene clusters. However, often the commercial potential of these species is impeded by difficulties to predict host physiological and metabolic compatibility with a given product, and lack of adequate genetic ...

A few Ascomycota taxa dominate soil fungal communities worldwide
Nature Communications, 2019 Despite having key functions in terrestrial ecosystems, information on the dominant soil fungi and their ecological preferences at the global scale is lacking. To fill this knowledge gap, we surveyed 235 soils from across the globe. Our findings indicate
