Lecanicillium aphanocladii: a biocontrol agent against insect pests and phytopathogens
Recent research findings on the biocontrol potential of Lecanicillium aphanocladii fungus against insect‐pests and plant diseases were highlighted. This review indicates that several L. aphanocladii strains show great potential to be developed as multipurpose biocontrol agents active against several insect‐pests, plant diseases and plant parasitic ...

Two new species and a new record of the asexual micromycete genus Endophragmiella from Mexico
Background and Aims: Endophragmiella species are saprobic asexual microfungi with a wide geographical distribution. Morphologically, the genus is characterized by simple or branched conidiophores, monoblastic, percurrently extending conidiogenous cells,

Nano‐encapsulated Cinnamomum cassia essential oil (nano‐CC‐EO) showed in vitro antifungal activity against fluconazole‐resistant Nakaseomyces glabratus and Pichia kudriavzevii clinical isolates. Checkerboard assays revealed synergistic or additive interactions between nano‐CC‐EO and fluconazole in several isolates, without evidence of antagonism. These

Taxonomy and phylogeny of the genus Mycosphaerella and its anamorphs [PDF]
Historically plant pathogenic species of Mycosphaerella have been regarded as host-specific, though this hypothesys has proven difficult to test largely due to the inavailability of fungal cultures.

Fungal entomopathogens: new insights on their ecology [PDF]
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.

Methodologies for the early detection of Phyllosticta citricarpa in air and rainwater samples were developed and applied over three consecutive years (2018–2021) in four European citrus sites, previously reported to harbour the pathogen. Phyllosticta citricarpa was not detected in plant, air, or rainwater samples, and no CBS symptoms were observed on ...

Methods of inoculating cypress with Seridium species to screen for resistance and pathogen variability : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Applied Science in Plant Health at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
The cypress species are grown for their timber value, ornamental beauty and shelter. Their existence is threatened by the presence of cypress canker disease caused by fungal pathogens of the genus Seiridium.

ABSTRACT Freshwater microbial communities sustain ecosystem functions and services, with aquatic fungi playing a key role in organic matter decomposition and nutrient transfer. However, the combined effects of multiple stressors on stream fungal biodiversity and functioning remain poorly understood.
