Biological Characteristics of Recombinant Arthrobotrys oligospora Chitinase AO-801. [PDF]
Chitinase AO-801 is a hydrolase secreted by <i>Arthrobotrys oligospora</i> during nematode feeding, while its role remained elusive. This study analyzed the molecular characteristics of recombinant chitinase of <i>Arthrobotrys oligospora</i> (reAO-801).

Transcriptomic Analysis Reveals That Rho GTPases Regulate Trap Development and Lifestyle Transition of the Nematode-Trapping Fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora [PDF]
Nematode-trapping (NT) fungi can form unique infection structures (traps) to capture and kill free-living nematodes and, thus, can play a potential role in the biocontrol of nematodes. Arthrobotrys oligospora is a representative species of NT fungi. Here,

Functional Characterization of Ao4g24: An Uncharacterized Gene Involved in Conidiation, Trap Formation, Stress Response, and Secondary Metabolism in Arthrobotrys oligospora. [PDF]
Arthrobotrys oligospora is a typical nematode-trapping (NT) fungus, which can secrete food cues to lure, capture, and digest nematodes by triggering the production of adhesive networks (traps). Based on genomic and proteomic analyses, multiple pathogenic

Uncovering the biogeographic pattern of the widespread nematode-trapping fungi Arthrobotrys oligospora: watershed is the key [PDF]
Studies of biogeographic patterns of fungi have long been behind those of plants and animals. The presence of worldwide species, the lack of systematic sampling design and adequate sampling effort, and the lack of research units are responsible for this ...

Proteomic insights into nematode-trapping fungi <i>Arthrobotrys oligospora</i> after their response to chitin. [PDF]
Introduction Nematode-trapping fungi (NTFs) can produce various chitinases to degrade nematode body wall and eggshell chitin during predation. However, the regulatory mechanisms of their expression of chitinases still remain unclear.

The cAMP-PKA pathway regulates prey sensing and trap morphogenesis in the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora. [PDF]
Sensing environmental factors and responding swiftly to them is essential for all living organisms. For instance, predators must act rapidly once prey is sensed.
