Development of a PCR-based mating-type assay for Clavicipitaceae [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2004
This study developed a PCR-based mating-type assay for Clavicipitaceae. PCR primer sets for the mating-type genes MAT1-1-1 and MAT1-2-1 were designed based on the amino acid sequences of the conserved alpha and HMG boxes, respectively. The PCR-based mating-type assay could be applied for various clavicipitaceous genera (Balansia, Claviceps, Cordyceps ...

Complete mitogenome of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium album and phylogenetic analysis of Hypocreales

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
Metarhizium album, with a narrow host range, is an entomopathogenic fungus in the family Clavicipitaceae. Its nuclear genome has been sequenced, whereas its mitogenome is still unknown. In this study, the complete mitogenome of M. album was assembled and

Susceptibility of three orthopteran species to infection by Metarhizium acridum (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae) [PDF]

International Journal of Tropical Insect Science, 2018
AbstractOutbreaks of three orthopteran species—Tropidacris collaris(Stoll),Cornops frenatum frenatum(Marschall) andParascopas obesus(Giglio-Tos)—occurred in three different regions of Brazil during the summers of 2012 and 2013. Insects were observed causing severe damage in commercial crops and subsistence farming areas.

Putative Phosphatase UvPsr1 Is Required for Mycelial Growth, Conidiation, Stress Response and Pathogenicity in Ustilaginonidea virens

Rice Science, 2020
Ustilaginoidea virens is the causal agent of rice false smut, which can be a highly destructive disease of rice. The plasma membrane phosphatase Psr1 proteins, which act as a regulator of the salinity stress response in yeast, are widely distributed ...

Fungal entomopathogens: new insights on their ecology [PDF]

, 2009
An important mechanism for insect pest control should be the use of fungal entomopathogens. Even though these organisms have been studied for more than 100 y, their effective use in the field remains elusive.
