Regulators of plant biomass degradation in ascomycetous fungi
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017 Fungi play a major role in the global carbon cycle because of their ability to utilize plant biomass (polysaccharides, proteins, and lignin) as carbon source.

Current ecological understanding of fungal-like pathogens of fish: what lies beneath? [PDF]
, 2014 Despite increasingly sophisticated microbiological techniques, and long after the first discovery of microbes, basic knowledge is still lacking to fully appreciate the ecological importance of microbial parasites in fish. This is likely due to the nature

Emergent behavior of soil fungal dynamics:influence of soil architecture and water distribution [PDF]
, 2012 Macroscopic measurements and observations in two-dimensional soil-thin sections indicate that fungal hyphae invade preferentially the larger, air-filled pores in soils. This suggests that the architecture of soils and the microscale distribution of water

Susceptibility of Myzus persicae, Brevicoryne brassicae and Nasonovia ribisnigri to fungal biopesticides in laboratory and field experiments [PDF]
, 2020 The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) for the control of aphid pests of field vegetable crops. Four biopesticides based on the EPF Beauveria bassiana (Botanigard ES and Naturalis L), Cordyceps fumosorosea s.l.

Microbiological Research, 2007 We have now entered in the post-genomic era, where we have knowledge of plethora of fungal genomes and cutting edge technology is available to study global mRNA, protein and metabolite profiles. These so-called 'omic' technologies (transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics) provide the possibility to characterize plant-pathogen interactions and ...
