Revisiting the Evolution and Function of NIP2 Paralogues in the Rhynchosporium Spp. Complex

Plant Pathology, EarlyView.
A new long‐read assembly of Rhynchosporium commune reveals ancestral duplication of the Necrosis‐Inducing Protein 2 effector family, which are upregulated during infection but do not cause necrosis on barley. ABSTRACT The fungus Rhynchosporium commune, the causal agent of barley scald disease, contains a paralogous effector gene family called Necrosis ...

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

Frontiers 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

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

Topics 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.

PCR-based characterisation of entomopathogenic fungi for ecological studies [PDF]

, 2008
The implementation of PCR-based tools for characterisation of organisms has greatly advanced our understanding of the phylogenies and species boundaries in entomopathogenic fungi, especially the widespread taxa Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium ...

Characterisation of the Oral Microbiome in Women With Fibromyalgia: An Observational Case–Control Study

European Journal of Pain, Volume 29, Issue 6, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Fibromyalgia is a complex disorder, associated with a range of symptoms, not least of which is chronic, widespread pain. Although several reports have brought the role of oral health in systemic diseases into recent focus, the oral microbiome in fibromyalgia is unexplored.

Microbial Ecology of Permafrost Soils: Populations, Processes, and Perspectives

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 245-258, April/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Permafrost microbial research has flourished in the past decades, due in part to improvements in sampling and molecular techniques, but also the increased focus on the permafrost greenhouse gas feedback to climate change and other ecological processes in high latitude and alpine permafrost soils.

Effect of sugar beet variety resistance on the disease epidemiology of Cercospora beticola

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 6, Page 2970-2980, June 2025.
Cercospora leaf spot (CLS), caused by Cercospora beticola, is the most destructive foliar disease in sugar beet. In our two‐year field trial, we monitored the spore flight of C. beticola in field trials comprising varieties with different resistant properties with a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR)‐based method.

Decomposition of Litter and Root Residues From Perennial Intermediate Wheatgrass Governed by the Soil Microbiome and Different Earthworm Species

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Perennial intermediate wheatgrass (IWG, Kernza®) establishes an extensive root system which positively impacts nutrient retention and biodiversity and therefore offers a regenerative alternative to current annual wheat production.
