Acetylation dynamics of MrATG4 governing autophagy-mediated conidiation in an entomopathogenic fungus. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens
Conidial production is a critical factor determining the efficacy of entomopathogenic fungi as biocontrol agents. Autophagy, a fundamental cellular degradation process, plays an essential role in regulating fungal conidiation.

Distinct actomyosin–septin coordination governs conidiation and septation in Verticillium dahliae [PDF]

mLife
Conidiation is the primary mode of reproduction in filamentous fungi and is essential for the dispersal of pathogenic species. However, the fundamental cellular mechanisms regulating conidiation in plant pathogenic fungi remain largely unexplored.

MaNCP1, a C2H2 Zinc Finger Protein, Governs the Conidiation Pattern Shift through Regulating the Reductive Pathway for Nitric Oxide Synthesis in the Filamentous Fungus Metarhizium acridum

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Asexual sporulation is the most common reproduction mode of fungi. Most filamentous fungi have two conidiation patterns, normal conidiation and microcycle conidiation, which may be regulated by nutritional conditions.

Transcription Factor Mavib-1 Negatively Regulates Conidiation by Affecting Utilization of Carbon and Nitrogen Source in Metarhizium acridum

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Conidium is the main infection unit and reproductive unit of pathogenic fungi. Exploring the mechanism of conidiation and its regulation contributes to understanding the pathogenicity of pathogenic fungi.

srdA mutations suppress the rseA/cpsA deletion mutant conidiation defect in Aspergillus nidulans

Scientific Reports, 2023
Conidiation is an important reproductive process in Aspergillus. We previously reported, in A. nidulans, that the deletion of a putative glycosyltransferase gene, rseA/cpsA, causes an increase in the production of extracellular hydrolases and a severe ...

The Heterotrimeric Transcription Factor CCAAT-Binding Complex and Ca2+-CrzA Signaling Reversely Regulate the Transition between Fungal Hyphal Growth and Asexual Reproduction

mBio, 2021
The life cycle of filamentous fungi generally comprises hyphal growth and asexual reproduction. Both growth and propagation processes are critical for invasion growth, spore dissemination, and virulence in fungal pathogens and for the production of ...

Gene expression profiling during conidiation in the rice blast pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Conidiation of phytopathogenic fungi is a key developmental process that plays a central role in their life cycles and in epidemics. However, there is little information on conidiation-induced molecular changes in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae.
