DNA methylation plays important roles in lifestyle transition of Arthrobotrys oligospora. [PDF]

IET Syst Biol
Abstract Trap formation is the key indicator of carnivorous lifestyle transition of nematode‐trapping fungi (NTF). Here, the DNA methylation profile was explored during trap induction of Arthrobotrys oligospora , a typical NTF that captures nematodes by developing adhesive ...

AoChk1 Is Required for Sporulation, Trap Formation, and Metabolic Process in <i>Arthrobotrys oligospora</i>. [PDF]

J Fungi (Basel)
Chk1, a highly conserved serine/threonine protein kinase, functions as a critical regulator of fungal cell cycle progression, mitotic fidelity, and DNA damage response. In this study, we characterized an orthologous Chk1 (AoChk1) in a ubiquitous nematode-

<i>AoMbp1</i> Governs Conidiation and Trap Morphogenesis in <i>Arthrobotrys oligospora</i> Via Direct Transcriptional Activation of the MAPK Sensor <i>AoSho1</i>. [PDF]

J Fungi (Basel)
The nematode-trapping fungus (NTF) Arthrobotrys oligospora (A. oligospora) is a promising biocontrol agent, but the transcriptional regulators governing its predation remain poorly understood.

Establishment of Arthrobotrys flagrans as biocontrol agent against the root pathogenic nematode Xiphinema index [PDF]

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 2, Page 283-293, February 2023., 2023
Plant-parasitic nematodes cause devastating agricultural damage worldwide. Only a few synthetic nematicides can be used and their application is limited in fields. Therefore, there is a need for sustainable and environment-friendly alternatives. Nematode-

High Predatory Capacity of a Novel Arthrobotrys oligospora Variety on the Ovine Gastrointestinal Nematode Haemonchus contortus (Rhabditomorpha: Trichostrongylidae) [PDF]

Pathogens, 2021
With the worldwide development of anthelmintic resistance, new alternative approaches for controlling gastrointestinal nematodes in sheep are urgently required. In this work, we identified and characterized native nematode-trapping fungi.

Proteomic insights into nematode-trapping fungi <i>Arthrobotrys oligospora</i> after their response to chitin. [PDF]

J Vet Res
Abstract 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.

Fus3 regulates asexual development and trap morphogenesis in the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora. [PDF]

iScience, 2023
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) Fus3 is an essential regulator of cell differentiation and virulence in fungal pathogens of plants and animals. However, the function and regulatory mechanism of MAPK signaling in nematode-trapping (NT) fungi remain largely unknown.

Functional analysis of seven regulators of G protein signaling (RGSs) in the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora. [PDF]

Virulence, 2021
Regulators of G protein signaling (RGSs) are proteins that negatively regulate G protein signal transduction. In this study, seven putative RGSs were characterized in the nematode-trapping (NT) fungus, Arthrobotrys oligospora.

Historical Differentiation and Recent Hybridization in Natural Populations of the Nematode-Trapping Fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora in China. [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2021
Maintaining the effects of nematode-trapping fungi (NTF) agents in order to control plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) in different ecological environments has been a major challenge in biological control applications.
