An efficient method for DNA extraction from Cladosporioid fungi [PDF]
, 2010 We developed an efficient method for DNA extraction from Cladosporioid fungi, which are important fungal plant pathogens. The cell wall of Cladosporioid fungi is often melanized, which makes it difficult to extract DNA from their cells.

Mycelial DNA persistence in a forest soil
Environmental DNA, 2021 Living fungi can be identified and monitored in their soil habitat using an array of molecular methods. However, DNA originating from dead fungal tissue may become stabilized in the soil and remain detectable for some time after cell death rendering ...

Evolutionary Relationship and the Sequence Similarities among Different Fungal Species Infecting Birds Captured from Different Areas in Denmark [PDF]
Archives of Razi Institute, 2022 Fungal diseases are the common cause of death in wild animals and birds of prey. This study was designed to investigate the development of fungal infections among wild birds in Denmark.

Epiparasitic plants specialized on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi [PDF]
, 2002 Over 400 non-photosynthetic species from 10 families of vascular plants obtain their carbon from fungi and are thus defined as myco-heterotrophs. Many of these plants are epiparasitic on green plants from which they obtain carbon by 'cheating' shared ...

Recent trends in molecular diagnostics of yeast infections : from PCR to NGS [PDF]
, 2019 The incidence of opportunistic yeast infections in humans has been increasing over recent years. These infections are difficult to treat and diagnose, in part due to the large number and broad diversity of species that can underlie the infection.

Recent advances in exploring physiology and biodiversity of ectomycorrhizas highlight the functioning of these symbioses in ecosystems [PDF]
, 2000 Ectomycorrhizas, the dominating mycorrhizal symbiosis in boreal, temperate and some tropical forests, are formed by 5000-6000 species of the asco- and basidiomycetes.

ToxGen: An improved reference database for the identification of type B-trichothecene genotypes in Fusarium [PDF]
, 2017 Type B trichothecenes, which pose a serious hazard to consumer health, occur worldwide in grains. These mycotoxins are produced mainly by three different trichothecene genotypes/chemotypes: 3ADON (3-acetyldeoxynivalenol), 15ADON (15-acetyldeoxynivalenol)

Tracking fungal community responses to maize plants by DNA- and RNA-based pyrosequencing. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 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]
PeerJ, 2015 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 ...
