Interactional Endocytosis and Transmembrane Transport Promote Cellular Internalization of Nano‐Delivered RNA Drugs for Efficient Control of Crop Diseases

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea is a widespread plant pathogenic ascomycete that causes grey mould in over 1400 species and impacts global crop yields. Double‐stranded RNA (dsRNA)‐induced gene silencing is a promising technology for pest control, but efficient delivery remains a major challenge.

“Is This Edible Anyway?” The Impact of Culture on the Evolution (and Devolution) of Mushroom Knowledge

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Mushrooms are a ubiquitous and essential component in our biological environment and have been of interest to humans around the globe for millennia. Knowledge about mushrooms represents a prime example of cumulative culture, one of the key processes in human evolution.

Succession and Carbon Source Utilization of Fungi Associated With Hylocomium splendens on a Subalpine Forest Floor

open access: yesEcological Research, Volume 41, Issue 4, July 2026.
The present study examined the succession and carbon source utilization of fungi associated with moss profiles and to identify the metabolic traits that were linked to the successional status. We showed that the successional status of microfungi in decomposing tissues of Hylocomium splendens was affected not by the taxonomic group but by the potential ...

Edulitin 2, a Ribotoxin‐Like Protein From Boletus edulis That Triggers Apoptosis in Colon Cancer Cells While Preserving the Integrity of the Intestinal Microbiota

open access: yeseFood, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
Edulitin 2 is a ribotoxin‐like protein exhibiting a potent antiproliferative activity towards Caco‐2 and HT29 cells by programmed cell death. However, edulitin 2 does not affect gut microbiota growth, despite damaging fungal ribosomes. ABSTRACT Porcini (Boletus edulis Bull.) are a reservoir of pharmacological biomolecules with health‐promoting ...

NADPH Dehydrogenase Gene Regulates Energy Distribution and Fatty Acid Metabolism During Fruiting Body Formation in the Filamentous Fungus Podospora anserina

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2026.
NADPH dehydrogenase gene deletion significantly triggered NADPH/NADP+ increase in mutant strains. NADPH gene deletion promoted Fatty acid biosynthesis and repressed β‐oxidation. NADPH gene deletion decreased oxidative phosphorylation and increased substrate‐level phosphorylation. Mutants exhibited hypersensitivity to oxidative stress, but promoted more

Distribution of Eutypella Canker in Sycamore Is Driven by Proximity to Infected Forest Sites, High Precipitation and Moderate Temperatures

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Eutypella parasitica, the causal agent of Eutypella canker on maple species, is an invasive forest pathogen recently introduced to Europe. Due to the wide distribution of susceptible Acer species, further spread across European forests is expected.

Assessing the Role of Mixed Tree Species in Mitigating Ash Dieback: Insights From Greenhouse Experiments

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Since its introduction, ash dieback has been a disease affecting ash (Fraxinus excelsior) stands across nearly their entire range. As the disease cannot be contained, various options for mitigating its severity have been explored in numerous studies.

Poplar miR1447 Is a Negative Regulator of Disease Resistance Through the SA‐Dependent Pathway

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3616-3633, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Although microRNA1447 (miR1447) regulates poplar responses to abiotic stress and pest infestation, how miR1447 regulates poplar immunity against pathogens and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here, we revealed that miR1447 functioned as a negative regulator of poplar disease resistance against fungal and bacterial ...

Influence of Zn2+ and Oxygen Supply on Malic Acid Production and Growth of Aspergillus oryzae

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, Volume 123, Issue 5, Page 1123-1138, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Malic acid is a valuable platform chemical traditionally derived from fossil‐based resources. Microbial cultivation with Aspergillus oryzae offers a sustainable alternative based on renewable feedstocks. In this study, a well‐established minimal medium for malic acid production, commonly used in previous research to ensure reproducibility, was
