Decoding the Structural Complexity of Fungal α‐ and β‐Glucan Matrix via Statistical Analysis of Solid‐State NMR Chemical Shifts

Israel Journal of Chemistry, Volume 66, Issue 4, July 2026.
Solid‐state NMR combined with principal component analysis enables quantitative classification of fungal α‐ and β‐glucan architectures in intact cell walls, revealing conserved triple‐helical β‐1,3‐glucan conformations across species and predominantly bundled‐sheet α‐1,3‐glucan assemblies with condition‐dependent polymorphism. Statistical clustering of

Melanin in Fonsecaea pedrosoi: a trap for oxidative radicals

BMC Microbiology, 2010
Background The pathogenic fungus Fonsecaea pedrosoi constitutively produces the pigment melanin, an important virulence factor in fungi. Melanin is incorporated in the cell wall structure and provides chemical and physical protection for the fungus.

Fungal disease management in cotton using plant protection products: An Australian perspective

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6010-6023, July 2026.
Cotton disease management requires evidence‐driven use of plant protection products. Progress hinges on integrating chemistry, diagnostics, stewardship and sustainability to build resilient production systems. Abstract Cotton production faces persistent challenges from pathogens that compromise plant establishment, yield, and fibre quality.

Whole genome sequencing of historical specimens from the world's largest fungal collection yields high‐quality assemblies

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 2, Page 752-767, July 2026.
Summary High‐throughput molecular studies of museum specimens (museomics) have great potential in biodiversity research, but fungal historical collections have scarcely been examined, leading to no comprehensive methodological assessments. Here we present a whole genome sequencing (WGS) project conducted at the Fungarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens ...

Hidden Fungal DNA Structures May Shape Sequencing Outcomes

BioEssays, Volume 48, Issue 6, June 2026.
Sequencing fungal DNA presents numerous challenges, and unexplored structural anomalies may be a contributor. Native ONT sequencing allows artefacts of disrupted pore translocation to be interrogated, facilitating mapping to genomic loci using raw signal analyses. Subsequent visualization tools could reveal novel genome architectures and drive advances

Sustainable Bioactive Hydrogels Engineered with Liquidambar orientalis Extracts: pH‐Dependent Release Behavior and Wound Healing Potential

Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 6, June 2026.
Liquidambar orientalis leaf extract (LOLE) and resin extract (LORE) were incorporated into four hydrogel matrices to obtain bioactive wound dressing films. LOLE‐loaded systems mainly contributed to antioxidant activity, whereas LORE‐loaded systems showed stronger antimicrobial performance. The hydrogels exhibited polymer‐ and extract‐dependent swelling,
