Infection of insects and persistence of Metarhizium (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae) species on apple bark

open access: yesAfrican Entomology, 2023
Entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) are cosmopolitan soil borne pathogens that cause epizootics in various insect orders. EPF isolates of Metarhizium brunneum and M. pinghaense have shown the potential for use as biological agents of important agricultural insect pests. The aim of the current study was to test for the persistence of M.

Introgression and gene family contraction drive the evolution of lifestyle and host shifts of hypocrealean fungi

open access: yesMycology, 2018
Hypocrealean fungi (Ascomycota) are known for their diversity of lifestyles. Their vital influences on agricultural and natural ecosystems have resulted in a number of sequenced genomes, which provide essential data for genomic analysis.

Diversification of Ergot Alkaloids in Natural and Modified Fungi

open access: yesToxins, 2015
Several fungi in two different families––the Clavicipitaceae and the Trichocomaceae––produce different profiles of ergot alkaloids, many of which are important in agriculture and medicine.

Multi‐Omics Profiling of the Scaphoideus titanus Yeast‐Like Symbiont Guides the Bioinformatic Discovery of Related Fungal Symbioses in Insects

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 7, July 2026.
Genomic, proteomic and phylogenetic analyses of the obligate yeast‐like symbiont (YLS) associated with Scaphoideus titanus revealed retained metabolic flexibility and a monophyletic origin of insect‐associated YLSs within a free‐living fungal lineage. A novel computational pipeline was used to mine NCBI transcriptomic data and identified new candidate ...

Mycoviruses as Biocontrol Agents: Potential Applications for Managing Pests and Diseases of Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus)

open access: yesPhysiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Oilseed rape (Brassica napus) production faces a wide range of biotic threats. Pests typically pose a greater threat than diseases to oilseed rape, yet both vary considerably across the major cultivating regions. Management strategies often rely heavily on the use of chemical pesticides which may have harmful effects on the environment, thus ...

Host Relations ofMyriogenospora atramentosaandBalansia epichloë(Clavicipitaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesPhytopathology, 1985
Attempts to inoculate Paspalum notatum and P. laeve with Myriogenospora atramentosa and Sporobolus poiretii with Balansia epichloë through inflorescences, seed, seedlings, leaf whorls, and cut stubble failed. Both fungi were culturable biotrophs on several warm-season perennial grass species.

Imputing Phylogenetic Trees Using Tropical Polytopes over the Space of Phylogenetic Trees

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
When we apply comparative phylogenetic analyses to genome data, it poses a significant problem and challenge that some of the given species (or taxa) often have missing genes (i.e., data).
