The MaCreA Gene Regulates Normal Conidiation and Microcycle Conidiation in Metarhizium acridum [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 As a C2H2 type zinc finger transcription factor, CreA is the key in Carbon Catabolism Repression (CCR) pathway, which negatively regulates the genes in carbon sources utilization. As conidiation in filamentous fungi is affected by nutritional conditions,

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

FgCot1 Regulates Polarized Growth and Conidiation in Fusarium graminearum via Gpmk1 MAPK and Tsf1 Transcriptional Pathways. [PDF]
Mol Plant PatholFgCot1 is a nuclear Dbf2‐related kinase in Fusarium graminearum. It inhibits activation of the Gpmk1 MAPK pathway and interacts with transcription factor Tsf1 to regulate its nuclear localization. FgCot1 integrates Gpmk1 signalling and Tsf1‐dependent transcriptional regulation to govern polarized growth and conidiation in F. graminearum.

Mycoviruses as Biocontrol Agents: Potential Applications for Managing Pests and Diseases of Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus). [PDF]
Physiol PlantABSTRACT 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 ...

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 ...
