Chemical composition of material extractives influences microbial growth and dynamics on wetted wood materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The impact of material chemical composition on microbial growth on building materials remains relatively poorly understood. We investigate the influence of the chemical composition of material extractives on microbial growth and community dynamics on 30 ...

Aspergillus conicus Endophyte Improves the Development of Eucalyptus camaldulensis Seedlings In Vitro

open access: yesJournal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 66, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Fungi of the genus Aspergillus promote plant growth and resistance, enhance nutrient uptake, protect plants against pathogens, and increase tolerance to environmental stress. We examined the symbiosis between Aspergillus conicus and seedlings of Eucalyptus camaldulensis, a forest species widely grown in Brazil for its valuable wood and ...

Comparative Analysis of Fungal Spore Flora Among Birds, Insects and Air in a Temperate Japanese Forest

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Birds, insects and air each host distinct fungal spore communities in a Japanese temperate forest; birds and insects act as selective vectors, while air provides maximal diversity. Our study highlights the importance of analysing multiple taxa to understand ecosystem‐level fungal spore dispersal and interactions.

Variation of Durum Wheat Rhizosphere Fungal Pathobiome From Conventional to Sustainable Agronomic Strategies Across Growth Stages

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Conservation tillage and compost fertilisation boost rhizosphere microbial diversity and beneficial fungi while reducing pathogenic species in durum wheat. These sustainable practices significantly influence the rhizosphere pathobiome, improving both soil and plant health.

Fungal Matters: ITS Sequencing Supports the Need for Regional Fungal Baselines for ERMI and Identifies WHO Fungal Priority Pathogen Taxa in Homes of Older Adults Receiving Home‐ and Community‐Based Services

open access: yesIndoor Air, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Older adults face compounded indoor exposure risk due to age‐associated immune decline, higher rates of chronic respiratory disease, and disproportionate time spent at home, yet their residential environments remain understudied. To address this gap, chemical, physical, and biological indoor air quality parameters were characterized in 42 homes of ...

First Report of Human Infection Caused by Aspergillus steynii and Analysis of Its Whole‐Genome Characteristics

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The incidence of infections caused by rare pathogens has increased in recent years. This necessitates the development of effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. In this study, we report the first documented case of Aspergillus steynii‐induced pulmonary infection in humans.
