Ergosterol extraction: A comparison of methodologies [PDF]
Access Microbiology, 2022 Ergosterol is a component of the cell membrane of mycorrhizal fungi and is frequently used to quantify their biomass. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi establish a symbiotic relationship with a respective host plant. Several methods are currently employed for quantification of ergosterol; however, these utilise a series ...

Ergosterol-Induced Sesquiterpenoid Synthesis in Tobacco Cells
Molecules, 2012 Plants have the ability to continuously respond to microbial signals in their environment. One of these stimuli is a steroid from fungal membranes, ergosterol, which does not occur in plants, but acts as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern molecule ...

The MoSR-MoDde1 Regulatory Axis: A Novel Determinant of DMI Sensitivity and a Target for Sustainable Rice Blast Control. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)The transcription factor MoSR governs DMI fungicide sensitivity in Magnaporthe oryzae through dual regulation of ergosterol biosynthesis and the detoxification enzyme MoDde1. Targeting MoDde1 via a small‐molecule inhibitor or host‐induced gene silencing enhances DMI efficacy against rice blast, offering a sustainable disease management strategy ...

Ergosterol from Yeasts Promotes <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> Internalization into <i>Candida albicans</i>. [PDF]
Int J Mol SciHelicobacter pylori is a cholesterol-auxotrophic pathogen capable of internalizing into Candida albicans, where the yeast may serve as a protective intracellular niche under adverse environmental conditions. Because ergosterol is an analog of cholesterol,

Water- and air-distributed conidia differ in sterol content and cytoplasmic microviscosity [PDF]
, 2010 Airborne and waterborne fungal spores were compared with respect to cytoplasmic viscosity and the presence of ergosterol. These parameters differed markedly between the two spore types and correlated with spore survival.
