Artificial intelligence‐powered microscopy: Transforming the landscape of parasitology
Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.Abstract Microscopy and image analysis play a vital role in parasitology research; they are critical for identifying parasitic organisms and elucidating their complex life cycles. Despite major advancements in imaging and analysis, several challenges remain. These include the integration of interdisciplinary data; information derived from various model

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Adaptation to the environment plays an essential role in yeast evolution as a consequence of selective pressures. Lachancea thermotolerans, a yeast related to fermentation and one of the current trends in wine technology research, has undergone an anthropisation process, leading to a notable genomic and phenomic differentiation.

Cryptococcus neoformans Mating and Genetic Crosses
Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2019 The Cryptococcus pathogenic species complex is a group of opportunistic human fungal pathogens that cause cryptococcal meningoencephalitis, an infection associated with unacceptably high mortality rates. The public health relevance of these pathogens has

Systematic functional analysis of kinases in the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans
Nature Communications, 2016 Cryptococcus neoformans is the leading cause of death by fungal meningoencephalitis; however, treatment options remain limited. Here we report the construction of 264 signature-tagged gene-deletion strains for 129 putative kinases, and examine their ...

Tracking and Treating Fungal Contamination in Indoor‐Growing Barley Sprouts
Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.This study identifies shifts in fungal communities during barley sprouting, with Arthroderma vanbreuseghemii and Fusarium cerealis dominating in eight‐day sprouts. Ozone water effectively suppresses pathogenic fungi, whereas 3‐octanone volatile compounds indicate mould contamination, offering a potential biomarker for rapid detection.
