Diagnostic ability of Peptidase S8 gene in the Arthrodermataceae causing dermatophytoses: A metadata analysis. [PDF]

PLoS One
An unambiguous identification of dermatophytes causing dermatophytoses is necessary for accurate clinical diagnosis and epidemiological implications. In the current taxonomy of the Arthrodermataceae, the etiological agents of dermatophytoses consist of seven genera and members of the genera Trichophyton are the most prevalent etiological agents at ...

Molecular diagnosis of dermatophyte isolates from canine and feline dermatophytosis in Northeast Iran. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci, 2022
This study was conducted for the first time in the northeastern region of Iran on small animals and is valuable in this regard. Abstract Background Dermatophytes are the most common causes of cutaneous fungal diseases. Dermatophytosis is a common skin disorder in dogs and cats.

Dermatophytes and mammalian hair: aspects of the evolution of Arthrodermataceae

Fungal Diversity, 2023
AbstractDermatophytes and other members of Onygenales are unique in their ability to degrade keratin, affecting hair and nails, and in the case of human hosts, causing skin infections. Subtillisins are essential proteases in keratin assimilation, and subtilisin-like protease 1 (SUB1) and SUB3–7 are specific for dermatophytes.

Molecular and Phenotypic Characterization of Nannizzia (Arthrodermataceae) [PDF]

Mycopathologia, 2019
Phylogenetic studies of the family Arthrodermataceae have revealed seven monophyletic dermatophyte clades representing the genera Trichophyton, Epidermophyton, Nannizzia, Lophophyton, Paraphyton, Microsporum, and Arthroderma. Members of the genus Nannizzia are geo- or zoophiles that occasionally infect humans.

Soil microbial community shifts explain habitat heterogeneity in two Haloxylon species from a nutrient perspective

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Haloxylon ammodendron and Haloxylon persicum (as sister taxa) grow in adjacent and distinct habitats in the Gurbantonggut Desert, with the former growing on interdunes and the latter on sand dunes. The rhizosphere of H. ammodendron recruited more copiotrophs (e.g., Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, N‐fixing microbes, and AOB), and with stronger microbial ...

Point mutations in the squalene epoxidase erg1 and sterol 14‐α demethylase erg11 gene of T indotineae isolates indicate that the resistant mutant strains evolved independently

Mycoses, Volume 65, Issue 1, Page 97-102, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The T indotineae population shows a high amount of terbinafine resistant isolates based on different point mutations of squalene epoxidase erg1 (ergosterol) gene. A significant proportion of these isolates also show azole resistance.

Phylogeny and taxonomy of three new Ctenomyces (Arthrodermataceae, Onygenales) species from China [PDF]

MycoKeys, 2019
Twelve Ctenomyces (Arthrodermataceae, Onygenales) strains were obtained and identified during a survey of keratinophilic fungi in soils from China. We used molecular identification combined with morphological evidence to delimit species, circumscribing five species in the genus. Three new species are herein described: C.albussp. nov., C.obovatussp. nov.

Phylogeny and taxonomy of the family Arthrodermataceae (dermatophytes) using sequence analysis of the ribosomal ITS region [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 1999
The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, covering the ITS1, ITS2 and 5.8S ribosomal DNA was used to evaluate phylogenetic relationships within the fungal family Arthrodermataceae. Sequences of variable length, ranging between 522 and 684 base pairs were aligned.

DIVERSITY OF ARTHRODERMATACEAE COMMUNITIES THAT CREATE HAVOC TO THE OVERALL HEALTH OF HUMAN AND ANIMALS

Slovenian Veterinary Research, 2018
Keratinous substance rich soil is most conducive for keratinophilic fungi growth and occurrence. Dermatophytes and other related fungi are potential pathogens causing human and animal dermatomycoses. Herein, this study went for screening the presence of dermatophytes and related keratinophilic fungi in various soil samples collected from different ...
