PLoS Pathogens, 2023 Mycoviruses are widely present in all major groups of fungi but those in entomopathogenic Metarhizium spp. remain understudied. In this investigation, a novel double-stranded (ds) RNA virus is isolated from Metarhizium majus and named Metarhizium majus ...

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2023 The asexual sporulation of filamentous fungi is an important mechanism for their reproduction, survival, and pathogenicity. In Aspergillus and several filamentous fungi, BrlA, AbaA, and WetA are the key elements of a central regulatory pathway ...

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.

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 ...

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.

MoWhi2 Mediates Mitophagy to Regulate Conidiation and Pathogenesis in Magnaporthe oryzae
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 Mitophagy refers to the specific process of degrading mitochondria, which is an important physiological process to maintain the balance of mitochondrial quantity and quality in cells.

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 ...
