In Neurospora crassa, a cytosolic GH18 endo‐β‐n‐acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) functions as an active deglycosylating enzyme. Deletion of this severely alters tolerance to multiple stress conditions and causes extensive transcriptomic reprogramming, including upregulation of a GH20 exo‐β‐n‐acetylhexosaminidase under ER stress, indicating that N. crassa

Co-existence and interaction between myxomycetes and other organisms in shared niches
The ecology of myxomycetes co-existing with the Latridiidae (Coleoptera), bryophytes and ascomycetous, basidiomycetous and anamorphic fungi were studied in Crimea and at different locations on the left bank of Ukraine. Results from the left bank indicate

Evolution of Dermatophytic Fungi: Anthropogenic and Biogenic Environmental Factors
ABSTRACT Climate change presents new challenges to dermatologic care, ranging from anthropogenic factors, such as pollution that select for extremotolerant and potentially antifungal‐resistant fungi, to biogenic factors that can drive zoonotic outbreaks, which have received increased attention since the SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic.

Abbreviated Summary The role of the major fungal cell wall polymer α‐1,3‐glucan in plant infection is poorly understood. Deletion mutants of the maize anthracnose fungus Colletotrichum graminicola lacking all three α‐1,3‐glucan synthase genes differentiated severely distorted biotrophic hyphae in planta, and virulence was strongly reduced.

ABSTRACT Plant‐fungus‐virus tripartite interactions represent complex ecological systems in which mutualistic endophytes can influence host physiology, yet the molecular basis of endophyte‐mediated defence remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that the endophytic fungus Penicillium pinophilum EU0013 suppresses the yellow strain of cucumber ...

Legacy hexaconazole and tricyclazole residues hinder organic transition in paddy rice cultivation
Hexaconazole and tricyclazole residues persisted in paddy soil throughout the three consecutive growing seasons after a single foliar application. These findings, combined with potential animal feed risks from contaminated rice straw, indicate that the current 2‐year organic transitional period is insufficient, necessitating extended conversion periods

Contrasting influences of ectomycorrhizal fungi on decomposition depending on soil fertility
Ecosystem types along a gradient of increasing nutritional and climatic constraints with an overall transition from carbon (C)to nitrogen (N) limitation on decomposition. Summary Despite their dominance in many terrestrial ecosystems, the impact of ectomycorrhizal fungi on organic matter decomposition is notably variable across different ecological ...

Fungal-specific PCR primers developed for analysis of the ITS region of environmental DNA extracts
Background The Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions of fungal ribosomal DNA (rDNA) are highly variable sequences of great importance in distinguishing fungal species by PCR analysis.

Chemical fractionation of Clinopodium nepeta essential oil reveals pulegone and menthone as markedly more potent antifungal isolates than the whole oil, with activity varying among pathogens. Pulegone exhibits superior efficacy against Verticillium dahliae and Phytophthora infestans, whereas menthone shows enhanced activity against Macrophomina ...
