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 ...

Two Different Secondary Metabolism Gene Clusters Occupied the Same Ancestral Locus in Fungal Dermatophytes of the Arthrodermataceae [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Dermatophyte fungi of the family Arthrodermataceae (Eurotiomycetes) colonize keratinized tissue, such as skin, frequently causing superficial mycoses in humans and other mammals, reptiles, and birds. Competition with native microflora likely underlies the propensity of these dermatophytes to produce a diversity of antibiotics and compounds for ...

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.

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.

Dermatophytes and mammalian hair: aspects of the evolution of Arthrodermataceae

Fungal Diversity, 2023
Abstract Dermatophytes 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.

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 ...

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.

Desarrollo y efecto antimicótico in vitro de una crema de Tropaeolum majus L. (Tropaeolaceae) sobre Trichophyton rubrum (Arthrodermataceae)

Arnaldoa, 2018
Resumen El estudio estuvo orientado en desarrollar una crema a base de flores de Tropaeolum majus L. (Tropaeolaceae) y evaluar su efecto in vitro en cepas de Trichophyton rubrum (Arthrodermataceae). Se obtuvo el extracto estandarizado de las flores, luego se determino la concentracion minima inhibitoria (CMI) y la concentracion minima fungicida

Epizootiological and clinical characteristics of bovine dermatophytosis caused by Trichophyton verrucosum [PDF]

Veterinarski Glasnik, 2011
Dermatophytoses present frequent contagious fungal skin diseases in humans and animals. Zoophyllic types of dermatophytes are almost always present in animals.
