Disseminated Histoplasmosis: An Unusual Finding at ROSE

open access: yesDiagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page E146-E148, June 2026.
ABSTRACT We describe an unusual case in which disseminated histoplasmosis was suspected at the time of of rapid on‐site assessment (ROSE) performed during endobronchial ultrasound‐guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS‐TBNA). The patient was a renal transplant recipient with fever, mild anemia, bilateral lung infiltrates and mediastinal ...

Genome analysis reveals evolutionary mechanisms of adaptation in systemic dimorphic fungi

open access: yes, 2018
Dimorphic fungal pathogens cause a significant human disease burden and unlike most fungal pathogens affect immunocompetent hosts. To examine the origin of virulence of these fungal pathogens, we compared genomes of classic systemic, opportunistic, and ...

Systematics and enzymatic activity of Foliar ascomycetes (Fungi) on Lepidozamia peroffskyana and Macrozamia lucida in Eastern Australia

open access: yes, 2021
The kingdom Fungi is deeply entangled in the evolutionary history and ecology of life on Earth. The diversity of fungi is poorly known with only 150,000 species described from at least 4 million species by most estimates.

Gene Editing in Dimorphic Fungi Using CRISPR/Cas9

open access: yesCurrent Protocols in Microbiology, 2020
AbstractDimorphic fungi in the genera Blastomyces, Histoplasma, Coccidioides, and Paracoccidioides are important human pathogens that affect human health in many countries throughout the world. Understanding the biology of these fungi is important for the development of effective treatments and vaccines.

Unraveling Oral Dysbiosis: Microbial Complexity in Common Oral Diseases

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
The oral microbiome undergoes dynamic establishment from birth, maturing into a resilient ecosystem. Perturbation of this homeostasis—driven by dietary, immunological, and anatomical factors—triggers dysbiosis, which underpins the pathogenesis of major oral diseases, including dental caries, periodontal disease, salivary gland disorders, oral mucosal ...

Isolation of a Natural Polysaccharide from Two Dimorphic Fungi and Its Biological Activities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The isolated fungal chitosan and commercial chitosan were tested for their anti bacterial activity against Gram positive and Gram negative organisms by disc diffusion method using Ciprofloxacin (5mg/disc) as standard.

The Fungal Protein Mes1 Is Required for Morphogenesis and Virulence in the Dimorphic Phytopathogen Ustilago maydis

open access: yes, 2022
Polarized growth is a defining property of filamentous fungi, which plays an important role in different aspects of their biology, including virulence. However, little information is available about the determinants of cell surface organization and their

Sex Determination in Sponges

open access: yesMolecular Reproduction and Development, Volume 93, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Sex determination in Porifera remains one of the least understood aspects of early metazoan biology despite the group's key phylogenetic position. Sponges display exceptional diversity in sexual systems—ranging from stable gonochorism to sequential hermaphroditism and sex reversal—yet lack morphological dimorphism and any discrete gonadal ...
