Establishment of Neurospora crassa as a model organism for fungal virology

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The fungus Neurospora crassa is a model organism for the study of various biological processes, but it is not known to be infected by any viruses. Here, Honda et al. identify RNA viruses that infect N.

Calcineurin Subunits A and B Interact to Regulate Growth and Asexual and Sexual Development in Neurospora crassa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Calcineurin is a calcium/calmodulin dependent protein phosphatase in eukaryotes that consists of a catalytic subunit A and a regulatory subunit B. Previous studies in the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa had suggested that the catalytic subunit of ...

Membrane Sphingolipids Regulate the Fitness and Antifungal Protein Susceptibility of Neurospora crassa

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The membrane sphingolipid glucosylceramide (GlcCer) plays an important role in fungal fitness and adaptation to most diverse environments. Moreover, reported differences in the structure of GlcCer between fungi, plants and animals render this pathway a ...

Characterization of indole-3-pyruvic acid pathway-mediated biosynthesis of auxin in Neurospora crassa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Plants, bacteria and some fungi are known to produce indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) by employing various pathways. Among these pathways, the indole-3-pyruvic acid (IPA) pathway is the best studied in green plants and plant-associated beneficial microbes ...

Callyspongia crassa and C. siphonella (Porifera, Callyspongiidae) as a potential source for medical bioactive substances, Aqaba Gulf, Red Sea, Egypt

open access: yesJournal of Basic and Applied Zoology, 2017
Background Sponges are champion of bioactive producers because of the variety of products that have been found from them. Most bioactive compounds extracted from sponges were classified into antibiotic, antiviral, antitumor, and anti-inflammatory.

Histone H1 Limits DNA Methylation in Neurospora crassa

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
Histone H1 variants, known as linker histones, are essential chromatin components in higher eukaryotes, yet compared to the core histones relatively little is known about their in vivo functions.

Gene expression differences among three Neurospora species reveal genes required for sexual reproduction in Neurospora crassa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Many fungi form complex three-dimensional fruiting bodies, within which the meiotic machinery for sexual spore production has been considered to be largely conserved over evolutionary time.

Secret lifestyles of Neurospora crassa [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2014
Neurospora crassa has a long history as an excellent model for genetic, cellular and biochemical research. Although this fungus is known as a saprotroph, it normally appears on burned vegetations or trees after forest fires.

Aegilops crassa Boiss. repeatome characterized using low-coverage NGS as a source of new FISH markers: Application in phylogenetic studies of the Triticeae

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Aegilops crassa Boiss. is polyploid grass species that grows in the eastern part of the Fertile Crescent, Afghanistan, and Middle Asia. It consists of tetraploid (4x) and hexaploid (6x) cytotypes (2n = 4x = 28, D1D1XcrXcr and 2n = 6x = 42, D1D1XcrXcrD2D2,

Relationship between phylogenetic distribution and genomic features in Neurospora crassa. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
In the post-genome era, insufficient functional annotation of predicted genes greatly restricts the potential of mining genome data. We demonstrate that an evolutionary approach, which is independent of functional annotation, has great potential as a ...
