Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 97, Issue 9, Page 2626-2635, September 2022., 2022 Abstract BACKGROUND Vegetable oil is more difficult for microorganisms to degrade compared with carbohydrates and protein. Oil‐rich waste creates serious environmental and health concerns if it remains untreated. The aim of the work reported here was to evaluate the effects on the nutritional composition of filamentous fungal biomass by growing it in ...

Clinical characteristics of people with cystic fibrosis and frequent fungal infection
Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 152-161, January 2022., 2022 Abstract Background Individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF) and fungal airway infection may present with fungal bronchitis, allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) or may appear unaffected despite fungal detection. We sought to characterize people with CF with frequent detection of fungi from airway samples and determine clinical outcomes ...

Viral diversity in Phytophthora cactorum population infecting strawberry
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 23, Issue 9, Page 5200-5221, September 2021., 2021 Summary Eighty‐eight Phytophthora cactorum strains isolated from crown or leather rot of strawberry in 1971–2019 were screened for viruses using RNA‐seq and RT‐PCR. Remarkably, all but one isolate were virus‐infected, most of them harbouring more than one virus of different genera or species.

International Journal of Biomaterials, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme, which is predominately found in all parts of a pineapple plant (Ananas comosus). It has immense application in the pharmaceutical industry as well as in food, cosmetic, and leather industries. However, bromelain from pineapple fruit peels is a less explored source for making valuable products. Therefore, the objective

Fungal evolution: cellular, genomic and metabolic complexity
Biological Reviews, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 1198-1232, October 2020., 2020 ABSTRACT The question of how phenotypic and genomic complexity are inter‐related and how they are shaped through evolution is a central question in biology that historically has been approached from the perspective of animals and plants. In recent years, however, fungi have emerged as a promising alternative system to address such questions.

Colorectal basidiobolomycosis in a dog
Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, Volume 34, Issue 5, Page 2091-2095, September 2020., 2020 Abstract A 7‐year‐old castrated male French Bulldog was examined for chronic large intestinal enteropathy. A colonic mass and thickened rectal mucosa were identified, and histopathologic examination of endoscopic biopsy specimens disclosed eosinophilic proctitis with large (5‐20 μm), irregularly shaped, pauciseptate hyphae that were Gomori methenamine ...

Fungal evolution: diversity, taxonomy and phylogeny of the Fungi
Biological Reviews, Volume 94, Issue 6, Page 2101-2137, December 2019., 2019 ABSTRACT The fungal kingdom comprises a hyperdiverse clade of heterotrophic eukaryotes characterized by the presence of a chitinous cell wall, the loss of phagotrophic capabilities and cell organizations that range from completely unicellular monopolar organisms to highly complex syncitial filaments that may form macroscopic structures.
