A reverse chemical ecology approach to explore wood natural durability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The natural durability of wood species, defined as their inherent resistance to wood‐destroying agents, is a complex phenomenon depending on many biotic and abiotic factors.

Species Diversity, Mating Strategy and Pathogenicity of Calonectria Species from Diseased Leaves and Soils in the Eucalyptus Plantation in Southern China

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2021
Many Calonectria species are causal agents of diseases on several forestry, agricultural and horticultural crops. Calonectria leaf blight is one of the most important diseases associated with Eucalyptus plantations and nurseries in Asia and South America.

Recent Advances in Fungal Infections: From Lung Ecology to Therapeutic Strategies With a Focus on Aspergillus spp.

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Fungal infections are estimated to be the main cause of death for more than 1.5 million people worldwide annually. However, fungal pathogenicity has been largely neglected.

Relationship between Species Richness, Biomass and Structure of Vegetation and Mycobiota along an Altitudinal Transect in the Polar Urals

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2020
Aboveground species richness patterns of vascular plants, aphyllophoroid macrofungi, bryophytes and lichens were compared along an altitudinal gradient (80–310 m a.s.l.) on the Slantsevaya mountain at the eastern macroslope of the Polar Urals (Russia ...

Evolution of Fungal Carbohydrate-Active Enzyme Portfolios and Adaptation to Plant Cell-Wall Polymers

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2021
The postindustrial era is currently facing two ecological challenges. First, the rise in global temperature, mostly caused by the accumulation of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere, and second, the inability of the environment to absorb the waste of ...

Diversity, distribution and ecology of fungal communities present in Antarctic lake sediments uncovered by DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
We assessed fungal diversity in sediments obtained from four lakes in the South Shetland Islands and James Ross Island, Antarctica, using DNA metabarcoding.

Ecology: Fungal mimics dupe animals by transforming plants [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
Many fungi transform host tissues to benefit their own reproduction. A recent study investigates a fungus that converts its plant host's reproductive tissues into ornate flower mimics. These 'pseudoflowers' present complex cues that may enlist insects to facilitate fungal dispersal.

Exploring fungal RiPPs from the perspective of chemical ecology

open access: yesFungal Biology and Biotechnology, 2022
Since the initial detection, in 2007, of fungal ribosomally synthesised and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs), this group of natural products has undergone rapid expansion, with four separate classes now recognised: amatoxins/phallotoxins ...

UNTANGLING THE FUNGAL NICHE: A TRAIT-BASED APPROACH

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Fungi are prominent components of most terrestrial ecosystems, both in terms of biomass and ecosystem functioning, but the hyper-diverse nature of most communities has obscured the search for unifying principles governing community organization.
