Atmospheric pollution, soil nutrients and climate effects on Mucoromycota arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 3390-3404, August 2022., 2022
Summary Fine root endophyte mycorrhizal fungi in the Endogonales (Mucoromycota arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, M‐AMF) are now recognized as at least as important globally as Glomeromycota AMF (G‐AMF), yet little is known about the environmental factors which influence M‐AMF diversity and colonization, partly because they typically only co‐colonize plants

Gastrointestinal Basidiobolomycosis in a Child

JPGN Reports, Volume 2, Issue 3, August 2021., 2021
Gastrointestinal basidiobolomycosis (GIB) is unusual, rare, and emerging fungal infection. It is caused by Basidiobolus ranarum. Unlike other fungal infections, B ranarum affects immunocompetent individuals with potentially grave sequelae if unrecognized. GIB is difficult to be diagnosed due to unspecific clinical presentation.

A Comprehensive Review of Infectious Granulomatous Diseases of the Gastrointestinal Tract

Gastroenterology Research and Practice, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
A granuloma is defined as a localized inflammatory reaction or a hypersensitive response to a nondegradable product leading to an organized collection of epithelioid histiocytes. Etiologies of granulomatous disorders can be divided into two broad categories: infectious and noninfectious (autoimmune conditions, toxins, etc.) causes.
