Protein kinases in the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1990
Summary: Cyclic AMP (cAMP)- and Ca2+-dependent protein kinase activities of the fungus Metarhizium anisopliae were sought in extracts of ungerminated conidia, germinating conidia and mycelium, as well as in purified plasma membranes from mycelium. Ungerminated conidia contained a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase capable of phosphorylating ...

Exploring Costa Rica's fungal trends: Insights from digitized specimens

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Fungi are essential to tropical ecosystems but remain largely absent from conservation agendas. By analyzing over 78,000 fungal records from Costa Rica—a globally recognized biodiversity hotspot—this study reveals key patterns in fungal diversity, distribution, and seasonality.

Susceptibility of adult female Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) to the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae is modified following blood feeding

Parasites & Vectors, 2011
Background The mosquito Aedes aegypti, vector of dengue fever, is a target for control by entomopathogenic fungi. Recent studies by our group have shown the susceptibility of adult A. aegypti to fungal infection by Metarhizium anisopliae.

Sanitizing the fortress: protection of ant brood and nest material by worker antibiotics [PDF]

, 2013
Social groups are at particular risk for parasite infection, which is heightened in eusocial insects by the low genetic diversity of individuals within a colony. To combat this, adult ants have evolved a suite of defenses to protect each other, including

Bacillus thuringiensis and its pest control potential as endophyte

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) systemically colonizes tomato plants as endophyte, inducing midgut damage, fitness reduction and immune suppression in Spodoptera littoralis larvae feeding on Bt‐colonized leaves. The immune suppression enhances the susceptibility to Bt treatments, allowing a synergistic dual use of Bt commercial formulations, by combined ...
