Strong host specialization in fungus genus Strongwellsea (Entomophthorales)

open access: yesJournal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2018
The genus Strongwellsea (Entomophthorales) has a unique pathobiology. Infected adult dipteran hosts develop a large hole in their abdomens, through which conidia are actively discharged while the hosts are still alive. We analyzed the IST II region of Strongwellsea from 29 infected hosts representing 15 dipteran species from Anthomyiidae, Fanniidae ...

Immunological separation of entomophthorales genera

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1989
Exoantigens from Erynia neoaphidis, Conidiobolus major, C. thromboides, C. obscurus, Zoophthora radicans, and Basidiobolus ranarum were obtained from culture filtrates of fungal material grown in a yeast extract, peptone dialysate, dextrose medium and were tested against specific hyperimmune antisera prepared from E. neoaphidis, C.

Wall composition of the protoplastic Entomophthorales

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 1987
Abstract The mycelial wall of the protoplastic Entomophthorales is essentially composed of linear β-(1 → 3)glucan associated with low concentrations of chitin. It is also characterized by the absence of galactose, uronic acids, and chitosan. A similar wall composition is found in species of the Entomophthorales unable to form protoplasts, indicating ...

Updated Records of Philippine Entomophthorales

open access: yesThe Philippine Entomologist Volume 22, 2008
Many species of fungi under the ·order Entomo_phthorales are important pathogens of arthropods often resulting rn high mortalities and natural control of field populations of insects and mites. Recognizing the presence of these fungi may aid in developing better management strategy .to control these pests.

Aphid-pathogenic Entomophthorales (their taxonomy, biology and ecology)

Biologia (Poland), 2006
Fungi of the order Entomophthorales (Zygomycota, Zygomycetes) constitute a group of mostly insect pathogenic species, which attracts attention of insect pathologists because of their high capacity for use in biological control of pest insects. This work primarily focuses on entomophthoralean species attacking aphids. The Entomophthorales are considered

Pathogenicity gene variations within the order Entomophthorales

open access: yes, 2012
Fungi within the order Entomophthorales (subphylum Entomophthoromycotina) are obligate biotrophic pathogens of arthropods with a remarkable narrow host range. Infection takes place through the cuticle when conidia hit a susceptible host, facilitated by enzymatic and mechanical mechanisms. In the hemolymph, they proliferate as hyphal bodies or cell wall-
