Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.This study identifies a conserved CsdA‐LaeB hub in Aspergillus fumigatus that regulates secondary metabolite fumiquinazoline C (FqC). Disrupting this hub enhances FqC production and virulence, shedding new light on the post‐transcriptional regulatory logic linking secondary metabolism to pathogenicity and offering alternative strategies for diagnostic ...

Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses of the Aspergillus fumigatus hypoxia response using an oxygen-controlled fermenter [PDF]
, 2012 Background Aspergillus fumigatus is a mold responsible for the majority of cases of aspergillosis in humans. To survive in the human body, A. fumigatus must adapt to microenvironments that are often characterized by low nutrient and oxygen availability ...

Microbiology and Immunology, Volume 70, Issue 3, Page 139-147, March 2026.ABSTRACT Chromoblastomycosis (CBM) is a chronic skin and subcutaneous infection mainly caused by Fonsecaea pedrosoi, a dematiaceous fungus with various morphotypes. Characteristic sclerotic cells—globe‐shaped, multiseptated and pigmented—are found in lesions of infected individuals, though their differentiation in the host remains poorly understood. To

The roles of endolithic fungi in bioerosion and disease in marine ecosystems. II. Potential facultatively parasitic anamorphic ascomycetes can cause disease in corals and molluscs [PDF]
, 2017 Anamorphic ascomycetes have been implicated as causative agents of diseases in tissues and skeletons of hard corals, in tissues of soft corals (sea fans) and in tissues and shells of molluscs.

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 3, March 2026.The bZIP63.5 transcription factor, activated by Alternaria alternata stress, directly upregulates zinc‐finger transcription factors (Zn2CyS6 and C2H2 types), which in turn enhance the expression of downstream detoxification and defence‐related genes, collectively improving the biocontrol efficacy of Trichoderma harzianum.

Peripheral circadian oscillators: interesting mechanisms and powerful tools [PDF]
, 2008 The lives of plants, animals, and human beings are all regulated by circadian clocks. In mammals, 24-hour rhythms of physiology and behavior are directed by a master clock in the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the brain hypothalamus, which in turn ...

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.The AA9 family protein ScAA9 of Stagonosporopsis cucurbitacearum plays dual roles as both a virulence factor for infection and a PAMP for host immune manipulation, highlighting the complexity of S. cucurbitacearum–host interactions. ABSTRACT Fungal pathogens secrete cell wall‐degrading enzymes that either act as virulence factors or are perceived by ...

Microneedle‐Based Biofertilizer Delivery Improves Plant Growth Through Microbiome Engineering
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 13, 12 February 2026.This figure shows how microneedles are used to deliver biofertilizers to enhance plant growth through microbial migration, metabolic reprogramming, and changes in plant endogenous microbiome. Abstract This study presents a microneedle‐based system for the delivery of rhizospheric biofertilizers into plant tissues to enhance growth.

The Impact of Fungal Developmental Structures on Mechanical Properties of Mycelial Materials
Engineering in Life Sciences, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.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 ...

Climate change impacts on mycotoxin risks in US maize [PDF]
, 2011 To ensure future food security, it is crucial to understand how potential climate change scenarios will affect agriculture. One key area of interest is how climatic factors, both in the near- and the long-term future, could affect fungal infection of ...
