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,

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.

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.

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.

Reducing Aspergillus fumigatus Virulence through Targeted Dysregulation of the Conidiation Pathway

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 ...

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.

Conidiation induction in Penicillium

Research in Microbiology, 2003
Asexual spores or conidia are dispersive propagules produced as an alternative to vegetative growth by a diverse group of filamentous fungi. The cellular development programmes which govern conidiation have been intensely studied in the last few decades,

Ambient pH intrinsically influences Trichoderma conidiation and colony morphology

Fungal Biology, 2010
Conidiation in Trichoderma has been demonstrated to be favoured by a low ambient pH and more recently PacC (Pac1) mediated pH-regulation has been implicated in the control of conidiation. In this study, ambient pH effects on conidiation were investigated

Transcription Factor MaHMG, the High-Mobility Group Protein, Is Implicated in Conidiation Pattern Shift and Stress Tolerance in Metarhizium acridum [PDF]

Journal of Fungi
Conidiation and stress tolerance are pivotal traits in entomopathogenic fungi, critically influencing their production costs and environmental tolerance.
