Concurrent Infections of Conidiobolus Coronatus with Disseminated Tuberculosis Presenting as Bilateral Orbital Cellulitis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Zygomycetes species contains two orders of organisms that infect humans, namely Mucorales and Entomophthorales. Entomophthorales cause chronic infection in immunocompetent patients, invading subcutaneous tissues but are non-angioinvasive. This includes

Human Pathogenic Entomophthorales [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 2018
The pathogenic entomophthoralean fungi cause infection in insects and mammalian hosts. Basidiobolus and Conidiobolus species can be found in soil and insect, reptile, and amphibian droppings in tropical and subtropical areas.

Long noncoding RNAs are potentially involved in the degeneration of virulence in an aphid-obligate pathogen, Conidiobolus obscurus (Entomophthoromycotina)

open access: yesVirulence, 2021
Virulence attenuation frequently occurs in in vitro culturing of pathogenic microbes. In this study, we investigated the total putative long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in an aphid-obligate pathogen, Conidiobolus obscurus, and screened the differentially ...

Statistical modelling of conidial discharge of entomophthoralean fungi using a newly discovered Pandora species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Entomophthoralean fungi are insect pathogenic fungi and are characterized by their active discharge of infective conidia that infect insects. Our aim was to study the effects of temperature on the discharge and to characterize the variation in the ...

Parasitoids and pathogens in a collapsing Lymantria dispar (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) population in Lower Austria

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 147, Issue 8, Page 676-687, September 2023., 2023
Abstract A local population outbreak of the spongy moth, Lymantria dispar L. (Lepidoptera: Erebidae), in Lower Austria, resulted in the defoliation of an oak forest in 2018 and 2019. In the study year 2020, the population density was still high but was expected to decline.

Genome-Wide Study of Conidiation-Related Genes in the Aphid-Obligate Fungal Pathogen Conidiobolus obscurus (Entomophthoromycotina)

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
Fungi in the Entomophthorales order can cause insect disease and epizootics in nature, contributing to biological pest control in agriculture and forestry.

An aphid symbiont confers protection against a specialized RNA virus, another increases vulnerability to the same pathogen

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 936-950, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Insects often harbour heritable symbionts that provide defence against specialized natural enemies, yet little is known about symbiont protection when hosts face simultaneous threats. In pea aphids (Acyrthosiphon pisum), the facultative endosymbiont Hamiltonella defensa confers protection against the parasitoid, Aphidius ervi, and Regiella ...

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) in Agriculture and Its Role in Maintaining Ecological Balance and Biodiversity

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The production of sustainable crops and environmental management in farming face several significant potential obstacles, including climate change, resource depletion and environmental degradation. Weeds and insect pests that considerably reduce yields have put crop production systems in danger.

Overcoming the Odds: Successful Treatment of Disseminated Mucormycosis with Gastrointestinal and Jaw Involvement in a Patient with Acute Myeloid Leukemia

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Disseminated mucormycosis is a rare life‐threatening fungal infection that is uniquely seen in severely immunocompromised patients including those with hematological malignancies. We report a case of disseminated mucormycosis with a biopsy‐proven gastrointestinal and oral cavity involvement in a patient with acute myeloid leukemia during induction ...

In search of ecological determinants of fungal infections: A semi‐field experiment with folivorous moths

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
The probability of the insects to die from fungal infection was studied as dependent on insect species, food plant of the insect, study site, (manipulated) condition of the larvae, and the phenological phase. In the course of rearing, visually detectable fungal infections were isolated and identified.
