“Is This Edible Anyway?” The Impact of Culture on the Evolution (and Devolution) of Mushroom Knowledge

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Mushrooms are a ubiquitous and essential component in our biological environment and have been of interest to humans around the globe for millennia. Knowledge about mushrooms represents a prime example of cumulative culture, one of the key processes in human evolution.

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 ...

Phylogenetic and Structural Analysis of Miconazole Susceptibility in Malassezia pachydermatis Isolates From Dogs With Otitis Externa

Veterinary Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background An increased number of dogs with unresolved yeast otitis externa (OE) after miconazole treatment was observed at a tertiary practice. Hypothesis/Objectives To evaluate miconazole susceptibility in Malassezia pachydermatis isolates from canine OE.

Antibacterial Effect of the In Vitro Interaction Between Clotrimazole and Chlorhexidine Against Staphylococcus pseudintermedius With Known Resistance Patterns Isolated From Canine Pyoderma

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 5, September 2026.
The 2:1 chlorhexidine–clotrimazole combination demonstrated enhanced antibacterial activity against canine Staphylococcus pseudintermedius isolates, including resistant strains. Reduced MIC values, predominantly additive interactions and absence of antagonism support its use as a promising topical strategy for canine pyoderma management.

Application of UHPLC-ESI-MS/MS-Based Metabonomic Techniques to Analyze the Cordyceps cicadae Metabolic Profile Changes to the CO(NH₂)₂ Response Mechanism in the Process of Ergosterol Synthesis

Fermentation
Nitrogen source is a necessary nutrient factor in the process of mycelial growth and metabolite synthesis. To improve the yield of ergosterol, in the previous study, we used transcriptome technology to explore the difference in gene expression of ...

Long‐term effects of clear‐cutting forestry on ectomycorrhizal fungi in boreal forest

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2818-2831, September 2026.
Summary Clear‐cutting is detrimental to ectomycorrhizal fungi in a short time perspective, but long‐term effects on species richness and community composition are uncertain. To evaluate ecological sustainability of rotation forestry, we examined to what extent communities similar to those in old forests develop within the time frame of a rotation ...

Volatile Organic Compounds Emitted by Fungi Have Substantial Effects on Growth and Disease Resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 9, Page 7168-7190, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by certain fungi have previously been suggested to modulate plant development and their response to stresses. While some fungal species, such as Trichoderma harzianum, are known to produce VOCs, the production of VOCs in other phylogenetically divergent species, such as Mucor mucedo, was previously ...

Molecular descriptor driven QSPR modeling of Papp, TEER and Efflux Ratio from Caco‐2 cells using machine learning for various phytochemicals

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 11, Page 6606-6616, 30 August 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND The present study aimed to develop and validate quantitative structure–property relationship (QSPR) models for predicting permeability related bioavailability indicators including apparent permeability (Papp), trans‐epithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and efflux ratio (ER) based on molecular descriptors (n = 5003) of 83 ...

Synthetic Sinapates: Antifungal, Molecular Docking, and ADMET Studies

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 23, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The increasing incidence of diseases resulting from fungal infections is due to the high morbidity and mortality associated with these microorganisms. Sinapic acid is a plant‐derived phenolic compound with antifungal activity. Therefore, in this study, a collection of eleven sinapates (1‐11) was prepared and the antifungal activity of these ...
