Lipid composition of the entomopathogenic fungus Nomuraea rileyi

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1984
Abstract The total lipid content, neutral and polar lipid composition, and fatty acid profiles were determined for the different developmental stages of the entomopathogenic fungus, Nomuraea rileyi . In general, the lipid composition of N. rileyi was found to be very similar to that of other Fungi Imperfecti. Triacylglycerides and sterols were the

Pathogenicity of Lecanicillium longisporum (Ascomycota: Hypocreomycetidae) on the aphid Cinara pini (Hemiptera: Lachnidae) in laboratory conditions

Journal of Crop Protection, 2014
The aphid species, Cinara pini (Linnaeus, 1758) reported in our previous work as a new aphid on pinus trees for Iran, was described using the classic method and through analysis of COI gene sequence.

Exploiting the behaviour of wild malaria vectors to achieve high infection with fungal biocontrol agents

Malaria Journal, 2012
Background Control of mosquitoes that transmit malaria has been the mainstay in the fight against the disease, but alternative methods are required in view of emerging insecticide resistance. Entomopathogenic fungi are candidate alternatives, but to date,

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Ultrastructural and Cytotoxic Effects of Metarhizium robertsii Infection on Rhipicephalus microplus Hemocytes

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
Metarhizium is an entomopathogenic fungus widely employed in the biological control of arthropods. Hemocytes present in the hemolymph of invertebrates are the cells involved in the immune response of arthropods.

Novel applications of the tomato microbiome: Roles and considerations for agriculture, human health, and society

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 530-555, March 2026.
Plants, like humans, have a microbiome that helps them grow, defend themselves against pathogens, acquire nutrients, and protect themselves against environmental stresses. The microbiome of tomatoes, a staple crop grown worldwide, could be utilized not only to reduce fertilizer and pesticide applications, but also to clean up harmful pollutants ...

Beauveria Bassiana Triggers Soybean Systemic Resistance and Causes Sublethal Effects in Spodoptera frugiperda

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 3, Page 236-250, March 2026.
The interaction of soybean plant and the endophytic microorganism Beauveria bassiana was evaluated by inoculating a single trifoliate leaf. The effects of this inoculation on the herbivory, larval development, and life traits of Spodoptera frugiperda were measured.

Mycoponics: Controlled Bioproduction Utilizing Biophysical, Solid‐State, Liquid Nutrient Delivery

Biotechnology Journal, Volume 21, Issue 2, February 2026.
Graphical Abstract and Lay Summary Mycoponic biotechnology, inspired by hydroponics—is enabled by antimicrobial ceramics as “substrate,” using a complete mycoponic media for continuous bioproduction of mycelial and mushroom products. Applications include food, mycoleather, and mycopharmaceuticals, representing 18% of the global market.

Physicochemical interactions and viability of Cordyceps fumosorosea associated with adjuvants

Bioscience Journal
Adding adjuvants to crop protection sprays is common practice; however interactions among formulations must be better understood to prevent reducing efficacy, especially for those containing microorganisms for biological control.
