Genome sequencing of evolved aspergilli populations reveals robust genomes, transversions in A. flavus, and sexual aberrancy in non-homologous end-joining mutants [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Aspergillus spp. comprises a very diverse group of lower eukaryotes with a high relevance for industrial applications and clinical implications. These multinucleate species are often cultured for many generations in the laboratory, which can

rodletless mutants of Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]
Conidia of Aspergillus fumigatus adhere in vitro to host proteins and cells via the outer cell wall layer. The rodA gene of A. fumigatus was cloned by homology with the rodA gene of Aspergillus nidulans, which is involved in the structure of the rodlets characteristic of the surface layer. The A.

Additivity interactions between fluconazole and citrus essential oils to Aspergillus fumigatus
Introduction Aspergillus fumigatus is the most common pathogen causing allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis. The pathogenic capacity of Aspergillus fumigatus is related to its thermal tolerance and the small size of the ...

Aspergillus fumigatus preexposure worsens pathology and improves control of Mycobacterium abscessus pulmonary infection in mice [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Mutations in this chloride channel lead to mucus accumulation, subsequent recurrent pulmonary infections, and ...

Determining whether estimated spore release rates for Aspergillus fumigatus are compatible with their measured growth rates in composting systems [PDF]
The composting process like other waste management activities has the potential to generate large concentrations of bioaerosols which can be widely dispersed into the surrounding environment.

Mechanisms of Triazole Resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus.
The ubiquitous fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus is the primary cause of opportunistic mold infections in humans. Aspergilli disseminate via asexual conidia passively traveling through air currents to germinate within a broad range of environs ...
