Plant-fungal mutualism as a strategy for the bioremediation of hydrocarbon polluted soils

2021
Inasmuch as coal remains the linchpin for the generation of electricity and liquid petroleum products in South Africa, hydrocarbon waste and coal discard will continue to pose a threat to the environment. Therefore, the onus is on the associated industries to develop and implement efficient and sustainable strategies to mitigate the negative impacts of

Mucoromycotina ‘fine root endophytes’: a new molecular model for plant–fungal mutualisms?

open access: yesTrends in Plant Science
The most studied plant-fungal symbioses to date are the interactions between plants and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi of the Glomeromycotina clade. Advancements in phylogenetics and microbial community profiling have distinguished a group of symbiosis-forming fungi that resemble AM fungi as belonging instead to the Mucoromycotina.

Fungal mutualisms

2016
Abstract ‘Fungal mutualisms’ considers symbiotic relationships in which the fungus and its partner benefit from their biological interaction. Examples of mutualisms with insects include fungi that trap scale insects, fungi cultivated by ambrosia beetles, and leaf-cutter ants and termites that grow mushroom gardens. These highly developed

Improved adaptation of temperate grasses through mutualism with fungal endophytes.

2019
Abstract Plants provide a unique ecological niche for diverse communities of fungal endophytes that vary in their impact, positive to negative, on the host plant. Fungal endophytes colonize plants without any visible disease symptoms for at least part of their life history.

Mutual inhibition of airway epithelial responses supports viral and fungal co-pathogenesis during coinfection

2022
ABSTRACT Awareness that fungal coinfection complicates viral respiratory infections causing worse disease outcome has recently emerged. The environmental fungus Aspergillus fumigatus ( Af ) has been reported as the main driver ...

A new currency for mutualism? Fungal endophytes alter antioxidant activity in hosts responding to drought

Fungal Diversity, 2012
Fungal endophytes have significant effects on host performance including but not limited to changes in reproductive output, as well as, biotic and abiotic stress tolerance. The ultimate mechanisms for resistance to herbivory have been documented in a number of fungal-plant symbiota and involve the production of alkaloids by the fungus.

Fungal endophyte infection in an alpine meadow: testing the mutualism theory

2010
Neotyphodium are fungal endosymbionts of grasses that reproduce asexually by infecting the host’s seed. This relationship has traditionally been considered mutualistic, with the fungus improving host fitness by alleviating important stresses. To determine the importance of biotic and abiotic stresses in mediating the endophyte-grass interaction, I ...

Emerging mutualisms: fungal endophytes and their relationships with mycorrhizal fungi

2011
De nombreuses maladies émergentes apparaissent qui sont dues à des champignons, aussi bien chez les plantes, les animaux que chez l’homme. Il est donc important de comprendre les mécanismes à l’origine de ces maladies, et la biologie évolutive fournit un cadre théorique indispensable, en particulier pour comprendre l’adaptation des pathogènes aux ...

The Mutually Inspiring Biological and Chemical Synthesis of Fungal Bicyclo[2.2.2]diazaoctane Indole Alkaloids

Chemical Reviews
Fungal indole alkaloids bearing a bicyclo[2.2.2]diazaoctane (BCDO) core structure are a fascinating family of natural products that exhibit a wide spectrum of biological activities. These compounds also display remarkable structural diversity, with many different diastereomers and enantiomers produced by specific fungal strains.
