Responses of Root Microbiome and Metabolome Are Linked to Crop Disease Severity

open access: yesJournal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant microorganisms are an essential component of the host and perform critical functions in plant development and health. Emerging evidence shows that plants use their root exudates to recruit beneficial microbes that protect them against abiotic and biotic stresses, including diseases.

Four Endophytic Ascomycetes New to Korea: Cladosporium anthropophilum, C. pseudocladosporioides, Daldinia eschscholtzii, and Nigrospora chinensis

open access: yes한국균학회지, 2019
Ascomycota is the largest phylum of the Fungi, including approximately 6,600 genera. They are often isolated from soils, indoor air, and freshwater environments, but also from plants as pathogens or endophytes.

Patulin Biodegradation by Rhodosporidiobolus ruineniae and Meyerozyma guilliermondii Isolated From Fruits

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study investigated the effects of incubation time and temperature, and initial patulin concentration on patulin removal rates, and the mechanism involved in patulin degradation by Rhodosporidiobolus ruineniae and Meyerozyma guilliermondii. The patulin degradation rate by the yeast strains was dependent on the three key parameters.

Uncovering Sequence and Structural Characteristics of Fungal Expansin‐Related Proteins With Potential to Drive Substrate Targeting

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 2, Page 547-557, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Expansins loosen plant cell wall networks through disrupting non‐covalent bonds between cellulose microfibrils and matrix polysaccharides. Whereas expansins were first discovered in plants, expansin‐related proteins have since been identified in bacteria and fungi.

The Role of Soil Microorganisms in Microplastic Biodegradation: Mechanisms, Carbon Preferences, and Ecological Impacts

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
This work explores the complex relationship between soil carbon availability and microplastic biodegradation, highlighting competition and symbiosis among microorganisms, the repurposing of microplastic‐derived polymers, and the impact of soil organic carbon on microbial substrate preferences and carbon use efficiency variability.

Responses of fungal diversity and community composition after 42 years of prescribed fire frequencies in semi-arid savanna rangelands

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science
Prescribed fire frequencies have been widely used to reduce the risk of severe wildfire occurrences. In addition, several studies have been conducted to assess the impact of fire frequencies on vegetation, vertebrate, and invertebrate species, as well as

Lepraria juanfernandezii , a new lichen species from the Southern Hemisphere

open access: yesPlant and Fungal Systematics, 2019
Lepraria juanfernandezii is described as a new species. It differs from all other species of Lepraria by its aggregate thallus with sparse prothallus hyphae, the absence of a hypothallus, the presence of divaricatic acid and the absence of zeorin, and

New records of Laboulbeniales (Fungi, Ascomycota) for The Netherlands

open access: yes, 2012
Laboulbeniales are obligate ectoparasitic ascomycetes occurring on Arthropoda, mostly insects. Since the 1950s almost no research on Laboulbeniales has been done in The Netherlands.

From beginning to end: the synecology of tree‐killing bark beetles, fungi, and trees

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 314-335, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Over a century of research has revealed an amazing complexity of behaviours and physiological adaptations that allow tiny bark beetles to overcome large trees, sometimes resulting in outbreaks that kill millions of trees. Turning a tree into a home and successfully raising offspring involves constant interactions among the beetles, the tree ...

Unexplored microfungal diversity from dead woody litter in the dry-hot valleys of Honghe (Yunnan, China)

open access: yesStudies in Fungi
Despite the critical ecological role fungi play across various ecosystems, the mycoflora of dry-hot valleys remains largely underexplored. This study aims to fill this gap by documenting the diversity and taxonomy of microfungal species in this unique ...
