Light-dependent roles of the G-protein α subunit GNA1 of Hypocrea jecorina (anamorph Trichoderma reesei) [PDF]
Background The filamentous ascomycete Hypocrea jecorina (anamorph Trichoderma reesei) is primarily known for its efficient enzymatic machinery that it utilizes to decompose cellulosic substrates.

The Impact of Fungal Developmental Structures on Mechanical Properties of Mycelial Materials
ABSTRACT This study explores how suppressing asexual development in Aspergillus nidulans enhances the mechanical properties of mycelial materials. Using four aconidial mutants (∆brlA, ∆flbA, ∆fluG, and fadAG42R) lacking asexual development and a control strain (A28) that undergoes typical asexual development, we found that the absence of asexual ...

The FlbA-regulated predicted transcription factor Fum21 of Aspergillus niger is involved in fumonisin production [PDF]
Aspergillus niger secretes proteins throughout the colony except for the zone that forms asexual spores called conidia. Inactivation of flbA that encodes a regulator of G-protein signaling results in colonies that are unable to reproduce asexually and ...

Genome sequencing of evolved aspergilli populations reveals robust genomes, transversions in A. flavus, and sexual aberrancy in non-homologous end-joining mutants [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Aspergillus spp. comprises a very diverse group of lower eukaryotes with a high relevance for industrial applications and clinical implications. These multinucleate species are often cultured for many generations in the laboratory, which can

This study provides the genetic basis for host preference associated with deoxynivalenol and nivalenol chemotypes in Fusarium graminearum, F. asiaticum, and F. meridionale. ABSTRACT Members of Fusarium sambucinum species complex (FSAMSC), major mycotoxigenic phytopathogens, affect cereal crops such as wheat and rice.

Hypovirus‐induced phosphorylation of CpIre1 modulates the endoplasmic reticulum stress response in Cryphonectria parasitica. ABSTRACT The chestnut blight fungus Cryphonectria parasitica and its hypovirus constitute a valuable model for investigating fungal pathogenesis and cross‐kingdom virus–host interplay.

MoPce1, an atypical CAP/PR‐1 family effector, is essential for Magnaporthe oryzae virulence. MoPce1 functions by interacting with the rice catalase OsCATC to disrupt ROS homeostasis, thereby promoting host susceptibility. ABSTRACT Plant pathogens employ a diverse array of effectors to facilitate host colonisation, including evolutionarily conserved ...

A conserved Cdc25–RasB signalling pathway, essential for hyphal fusion and host infection, is repurposed in Epichloë festucae to maintain a stable mutualistic symbiosis with grass hosts. ABSTRACT Epichloë festucae is a filamentous endophytic fungus that symbiotically colonises the intercellular spaces of aerial tissues in perennial ryegrass without ...
