In silico reversal of repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) identifies the origins of repeat families and uncovers obscured duplicated genes [PDF]
Background: Repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) is a fungal genome defence mechanism guarding against transposon invasion. RIP mutates the sequence of repeated DNA and over time renders the affected regions unrecognisable by similarity search tools such ...

Tracking fungal community responses to maize plants by DNA- and RNA-based pyrosequencing. [PDF]
We assessed soil fungal diversity and community structure at two sampling times (t1 = 47 days and t2 = 104 days of plant age) in pots associated with four maize cultivars, including two genetically modified (GM) cultivars by high-throughput ...

DNA quantification of basidiomycetous fungi during storage of logging residues [PDF]
The demand for bioenergy caused an increased use of logging residues, branches and treetops that were previously left on the ground after harvesting. Residues are stored outdoors in piles and it is unclear to what extent fungi transform this material ...

Introduction of a bead beating step improves fungal DNA extraction from selected patient specimens
In immunocompromised patients a colonisation with fungi carries the risk to develop serious invasive fungal infection. An early detection is therefore important, but not optimal hitherto.

Host genotype shapes the foliar fungal microbiome of balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera) [PDF]
Foliar fungal communities of plants are diverse and ubiquitous. In grasses endophytes may increase host fitness; in trees, their ecological roles are poorly understood.

Molecular Characterization of Subunit G of the Vacuolar ATPase in Pathogen Dermatophyte Trichophyton rubrum [PDF]
Trichophyton rubrum is an anthropophilic fungus causing up to 90% of chronic cases of dermatophytosis. Several properties of this fungus have been investigated so far.

Fungal community survey of Fraxinus excelior in New Zealand [PDF]
The European Ash tree (Fraxinus excelsior) is widely grown throughout Europe. As a large deciduous tree species, it grows a tall, domed crown and has an attractive tree shape, so it is considered as a popular amenity tree species. European Ash is planted
