The dimorphic fungi Blastomyces dermatitidis and Histoplasma capsulatum cause systemic mycoses in humans and other animals. Forward genetic approaches to generating and screening mutants for biologically important phenotypes have been underutilized for ...

Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs
Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.

Genomics of thermally pathogenic dimorphic human fungi: From the mitochondrion to the pangenome
The genomics of human pathogenic thermally dimorphic fungi has advanced significantly thanks to international initiatives such as the 1000 Fungal Genomes Project, which has reported a wide range of complete genomes in public repositories.

ABSTRACT Blastomycosis is a systemic fungal infection that is caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis or Blastomyces gilchristii. Although the lungs are the primary site of infection, blastomycosis can disseminate to the skin, bones, genitourinary system, and, rarely, visceral organs such as the spleen.

Microbial pathogens have evolved many strategies to evade recognition by the host immune system, including the use of phagocytic cells as a niche within which to proliferate.

Deep and disseminated dermatophytosis in immunocompromised populations—A systematic review
Dermatophyte infections of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue (i.e. deep dermatophytosis)—associated with secondary complications including pseudomycetoma and systemic dissemination—affect vulnerable populations with primary or acquired immunodeficiencies.

Differentially regulated high-affinity iron assimilation systems support growth of the various cell types in the dimorphic pathogen Talaromyces marneffei [PDF]
Iron is a key trace element important for many biochemical processes and its availability varies with the environment. For human pathogenic fungi iron acquisition can be particularly problematical because host cells sequester free iron as part of the ...

De‐Coupled Water and Nitrogen Translocation From Subsoil to Canopy of Temperate Forest Trees
ABSTRACT Water and nitrogen (N) transport from soil to canopy play a central role in tree functioning, yet direct evidence for their timing and coupling in mature forests remains scarce. We report results from a paired dual‐isotope (2H, 15N) tracer experiment in a temperate forest, comparing water and nitrate uptake patterns across tree species ...
