Distinct actomyosin-septin coordination governs conidiation and septation in <i>Verticillium dahliae</i>. [PDF]

mLife
Abstract 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. Here, using Verticillium dahliae as a model, we investigated the dynamic assembly and function of

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.

The C2H2 Zinc Finger Protein MaNCP1 Contributes to Conidiation through Governing the Nitrate Assimilation Pathway in the Entomopathogenic Fungus Metarhizium acridum

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Zinc finger proteins are an important class of multifunctional regulators. Here, the roles of a C2H2 zinc finger protein MaNCP1 (Metarhizium acridum nitrate-related conidiation pattern shift regulatory factor 1) in nitrogen utilization and conidiation ...

Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Cg2LysM contributed to virulence toward rubber tree through affecting invasive structure and inhibiting chitin-triggered plant immunity

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Fungal chitin, as a typical microorganism-associated molecular pattern (PAMP), was recognized by plant LysM-containing protein to induce immunity called pattern-triggered immunity (PTI).

The Forkhead Box Gene, MaSep1, Negatively Regulates UV- and Thermo-Tolerances and Is Required for Microcycle Conidiation in Metarhizium acridum. [PDF]

J Fungi (Basel)
Insect pathogenic fungi have shown great potential in agricultural pest control. Conidiation is crucial for the survival of filamentous fungi, and dispersal occurs through two methods: normal conidiation, where conidia differentiate from mycelium, and ...

The versatility of the putative transient receptor potential ion channels in regulating the calcium signaling in Aspergillus nidulans

mSphere, 2023
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are evolutionarily conserved integral membrane proteins. They serve as crucial mediators of sensory signals and have profound effects on cellular functions.

Inoculum Availability and Conidial Dispersal Patterns of Fusarium mangiferae, the Causal Agent of Mango Malformation Disease [PDF]

Phytopathology®, 2009
Inoculum availability and conidial dispersal patterns of Fusarium mangiferae, causal agent of mango malformation disease, were studied during 2006 and 2007 in an experimental orchard. The spatial pattern of primary infections in a heavily infected commercial mango orchard corresponded with a typical dispersal pattern caused by airborne propagules ...

Evolution of asexual and sexual reproduction in the aspergilli [PDF]

, 2018
Aspergillus nidulans has long-been used as a model organism to gain insights into the genetic basis of asexual and sexual developmental processes both in other members of the genus Aspergillus, and filamentous fungi in general.

Functional Profiling of Transcription Factor Genes in Neurospora crassa. [PDF]

, 2017
Regulation of gene expression by DNA-binding transcription factors is essential for proper control of growth and development in all organisms. In this study, we annotate and characterize growth and developmental phenotypes for transcription factor genes ...
