Electron-Transferring Flavoprotein and Its Dehydrogenase Required for Fungal Pathogenicity in Arthrobotrys oligospora. [PDF]
Electron transfer flavoprotein (ETF) plays an important function in fatty acid beta oxidation and the amino acid metabolic pathway. It can provide pathogenicity to some opportunistic fungi via modulating cellular metabolite composition. Arthrobotrys oligospora is a typical invasion fungus to nematodes. Its ETF characterization is still unknown.

Biosynthesis of Cry5B-Loaded Sulfur Nanoparticles using Arthrobotrys oligospora Filtrate: Effects on Nematicidal Activity, Thermal Stability, and Pathogenicity against Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]
Cry5B, a crystal protein produced by Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), is a bionematicide with potent nematicidal activity against various plant-parasitic and free-living nematodes.

Transformation of the nematode-trapping fungusArthrobotrys oligospora [PDF]
The nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora was transformed to hygromycin resistance using the hygromycin-B phosphotransferase gene from Escherichia coli under the control of various heterologous fungal promoters. Plasmid DNA was introduced into fungal protoplasts by polyethylene glycol/CaCl2 treatment.

Morphological Variations in Conidia ofArthrobotrys oligosporaon Different Media [PDF]
Most commonly occurring predacious fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora showed great variation in size and shape of conidia on some media. The formation of larger conidia was recorded on beef extract and nutrient agar media. The length of conidia in Richard's YPSS, Sabouraud's, PDA and corn meal agar media was of medium size while smaller conidia were ...

Summary: The nematode-trapping fungi are ideal agents for controlling pathogenic nematodes. Arthrobotrys oligospora is a representative species of the same, producing traps for nematode predation. Here, three orthologous Ras GTPases (Ras2, Ras3, and Rheb)

Surface polymers of the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora [PDF]
The nematophagous fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora captures nematodes using adhesive polymers present on special hyphae (traps) which form a three-dimensional network. To understand further the adhesion mechanisms, A. oligospora surface polymers were visualized by transmission electron microscopy and characterized by chemical methods.

Nematodes as suppressors and facilitators of plant performance
Summary Plant–nematode interactions are mainly considered from the negative aspect with a focus on plant‐parasitic nematodes (PPNs), which is justified considering the agronomic losses caused by PPNs. Despite the fact that PPNs are outnumbered by nonparasitic free‐living nematodes (FLNs), the functional importance of FLNs, especially with regard to ...

Abstract 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‐trapping fungi (NTF) are natural predators of nematodes. They capture and digest them with

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Knautia arvensis
Field Scabious is a widespread, native perennial of grasslands and meadows found throughout much of Europe. It is a popular plant frequently used as part of pollinator seed mixes, as the nectariferous blue‐lilac flowers support a range of generalist and specialist pollinators.

Nematode‐trapping fungus (NTF) is a crucial predator of nematodes, which can capture nematodes by developing specific trapping devices. However, there is limited understanding of the role and mechanism of cell surface proteins attached to the surface of mycelia or trapping cells. Here, the effects of a putative GPI‐anchored protein‐encoding gene Aog185
