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,

Autophagy During Conidiation and Conidial Germination in Filamentous Fungi [PDF]
Autophagy, 2007 Filamentous fungi form aerial hyphae on solid medium, and some of these differentiate into conidiophores for asexual sporulation (conidiation). In the filamentous deuteromycete, Aspergillus oryzae, aerial hyphae are formed from the foot cells and some differentiate into conidiophores, which are composed of vesicles, phialides and conidia.

Microbiology Spectrum, 2021 Conidiation is a pivotal strategy for fungi to resist adverse environments and disperse to new habitats, which is especially important for entomopathogenic fungi whose conidia are infective as fungal pesticide propagules. However, the molecular mechanism

FpCzf14 is a putative C2H2 transcription factor regulating conidiation in Fusarium pseudograminearum
Phytopathology Research, 2020 C2H2 zinc finger transcription factors such as FlbC and Msn2, have broad regulatory roles in fungal growth and conidiation. In the present study, we cloned and characterized a C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor gene, FpCzf14, in the wheat pathogen ...

Microcyle Conidiation in Filamentous Fungi [PDF]
Mycobiology, 2014 The typical life cycle of filamentous fungi commonly involves asexual sporulation after vegetative growth in response to environmental factors. The production of asexual spores is critical in the life cycle of most filamentous fungi. Normally, conidia are produced from vegetative hyphae (termed mycelia).

mBio, 2020 Inhalation of conidia of the opportunistic mold Aspergillus fumigatus by immunocompromised hosts can lead to invasive pulmonary disease. Inhaled conidia that escape immune defenses germinate to form filamentous hyphae that invade lung tissues ...
