Discovery of fungal onoceroid triterpenoids through domainless enzyme-targeted global genome mining
Nature CommunicationsGenomics-guided methodologies have revolutionized the discovery of natural products. However, a major challenge in the field of genome mining is determining how to selectively extract biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) for untapped natural products from ...

Signatures of host specialization and a recent transposable element burst in the dynamic one-speed genome of the fungal barley powdery mildew pathogen [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2018 Powdery mildews are biotrophic pathogenic fungi infecting a number of economically important plants. The grass powdery mildew, Blumeria graminis, has become a model organism to study host specialization of obligate biotrophic fungal pathogens.

The Xenopyricularia zizaniicola exhibits a genome architecture distinct to the two-speed genome [PDF]
Microbiology SpectrumThe fungal pathogens exhibit diverse genome architecture, which facilitates the host adaptation. Although increasing high-quality genomic data enable insights into the genome architecture of many fungal pathogens during the last decades, genomic features

Discovering the hidden function in fungal genomes
Nature CommunicationsNew molecular technologies have helped unveil previously unexplored facets of the genome beyond the canonical proteome, including microproteins and short ORFs, products of alternative splicing, regulatory non-coding RNAs, as well as transposable elements,

Briefings in Functional Genomics, 2014 Abstract Plants grow in close associations with fungi—pathogens, symbionts, and endophytes—and depend on these associations for success. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of these interactions is important in order to create optimal conditions for plant growth. Genomics is a powerful tool not only to discover the potential encoded in genomes of
