Host specialization of different populations of ergot fungus (Claviceps purpurea)

open access: yesCzech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2002
In our previous study of Claviceps purpurea three populations were found: G1 on open localities, G2 from shady or wet habitats and G3 on Spartina stands of coastal salt marshes. The latter two are also chemoraces.

Carbon Assimilation by Claviceps purpurea Growing as a Parasite [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1976
Carbon assimilation by Claviceps purpurea, growing as a parasite on cereals, has been investigated by supplying the host plant with 14CO2 in a closed system. The presence of the pathogen induced the plant to exude photosynthate which contained high levels of sucrose.

Breaking into nature's secret medicine cabinet: lichens – a biochemical goldmine ready for discovery

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 246, Issue 2, Page 437-449, April 2025.
Summary Secondary metabolites are a crucial source of bioactive compounds playing a key role in the development of new pharmaceuticals. Recently, biosynthetic research has benefited significantly from progress on various fronts, including reduced sequencing costs, improved genome/metabolome mining strategies, and expanding tools/databases to compare ...

Role of microbiota in pain: From bench to bedside

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 2, Issue 1, March 2025.
Pain is closely linked to microbes. The microbiota modulates pain perception through three mechanisms: microbiota‐derived metabolites, immunoregulation, and direct stimulation on neurons. Therapeutic strategies like probiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation, and dietary changes show significant potential in pain management.

Engineering Xylose Isomerase and Reductase Pathways in Yarrowia lipolytica for Efficient Lipid Production

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2025.
In this work, we analysed the efficiency of xylose consumption and lipid production in three recombinant strains of Y. lipolytica, bearing the isomerase pathway, the reductase pathways, or both at the same time, at laboratory bioreactor scale: The strain with the isomerase pathway showed higher intracellular lipid accumulation when oxygen levels were ...

Chemoraces and Habitat Specialization of Claviceps purpurea Populations [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2000
ABSTRACT We studied genetic variability of 100 isolates of Claviceps purpurea by using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), an Eco RI restriction site polymorphism in the 5.8S ribosomal DNA (rDNA), the alkaloids produced, and conidial morphology. We identified three groups: (i)

Biosynthesis of Depsides, Depsidones, and Diphenyl Ethers from Fungi and Lichens

open access: yesAsian Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2025.
Depsides are natural products derived from (poly)phenolic acid derivatives connected by ester bonds. Recent research has revealed crucial molecular mechanisms and distinctive enzymatic chemistry underlying the biosynthesis of depsides, as well as related natural products, such as depsidones and diphenyl ethers.

Microbial and insect oils: A sustainable approach to functional lipid

open access: yesJournal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, Volume 102, Issue 1, Page 5-33, January 2025.
Abstract The increasing global population, coupled with the effects of climate change on agricultural activities has spurred a demand for sustainable food production to meet human needs. In response to this, there has been a growing interest in sustainable food production initiatives. One of such initiatives is harnessing microbial and insect lipids as
