Studying fungal pathogens of humans and fungal infections: fungal diversity and diversity of approaches [PDF]
Genes & Immunity, 2019 Seminal work by Louis Pasteur revealed the contribution of fungi - yeasts and microsporidia to agroindustry and disease in animals, respectively. More than 150 years later, the impact of fungi on human health and beyond is an ever-increasing issue, although often underestimated. Recent studies estimate that fungal infections, especially those caused by

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

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.

Strategies for the Development of Industrial Fungal Producing Strains
Journal of Fungi, 2023 The use of microorganisms in industry has enabled the (over)production of various compounds (e.g., primary and secondary metabolites, proteins and enzymes) that are relevant for the production of antibiotics, food, beverages, cosmetics, chemicals and ...

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2014 Morphogenesis in fungi is often induced by extracellular factors and executed by fungal genetic factors. Cell surface changes and alterations of the microenvironment often accompany morphogenetic changes in fungi. In this review, we will first discuss the general traits of yeast and hyphal morphotypes and how morphogenesis affects development and ...

Mycological Progress, 2022 Perylenequinones (PQs) are aromatic polyketides with an oxidized pentacyclic core that make up a family of natural compounds. Naturally occurring PQs mostly are produced by phytopathogenic fungi, with few aphides, crinoids, and plants. PQs, also known as photosensitizers, absorb light energy which empowers them to produce reactive oxygen species that ...

Reactive fungal wearable [PDF]
Biosystems, 2021 Smart wearables sense and process information from the user's body and environment and report results of their analysis as electrical signals. Conventional electronic sensors and controllers are commonly, sometimes augmented by recent advances in soft electronics.

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
