Conidium Specific Polysaccharides in Aspergillus fumigatus
Earlier studies have shown that the outer layers of the conidial and mycelial cell walls of Aspergillus fumigatus are different. In this work, we analyzed the polysaccharidome of the resting conidial cell wall and observed major differences within the ...

The Zinc Finger Transcription Factor BbCmr1 Regulates Conidium Maturation in Beauveria bassiana
The entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana is a typical filamentous fungus and has been used for pest biocontrol. Conidia are the main active agents of fungal pesticides; however, we know little about conidial developmental mechanisms and less about ...

Kre6-dependent β-1,6-glucan biosynthesis only occurs in the conidium of Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]
The structural role of β-1,6-glucan has remained under-investigated in filamentous fungi compared to other fungal cell wall polymers, and previous studies have shown that the cell wall of the mycelium of A. fumigatus did not contain β-1,6-glucans.

Aspergillus fumigatus, One Uninucleate Species with Disparate Offspring
Establishment of a fungal infection due to Aspergillus fumigatus relies on the efficient germination of the airborne conidia once they penetrate the respiratory tract. However, the features of conidial germination have been poorly explored and understood

Dose-effect relationship of edible fungi with low-energy heavy-ion implantation
To reveal the dose-effect relationship of edible fungi via low-energy heavy-ion implantation, the conidia of three species of edible fungi were irradiated with 15 keV nitrogen ions at different dosages (0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14)×1015 cm-2.
