Fungal Pathogens in Grasslands [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Grasslands are major primary producers and function as major components of important watersheds. Although a concise definition of grasslands cannot be given using a physiognomic or structural approach, grasslands can be described as vegetation communities experiencing periodical droughts and with canopies dominated by grasses and grass-like plants ...

Fungal pathogens of Proteaceae [PDF]

open access: yesPersoonia - Molecular Phylogeny and Evolution of Fungi, 2011
Species of Leucadendron, Leucospermum and Protea (Proteaceae) are in high demand for the international floriculture market due to their brightly coloured and textured flowers or bracts. Fungal pathogens, however, create a serious problem in cultivating flawless blooms.

HIV and fungal priority pathogens

open access: yesThe Lancet HIV, 2023
The burden of invasive fungal infections associated with opportunistic fungal pathogens is a persistent challenge, particularly among people with advanced HIV disease. In October, 2022, WHO published the Fungal Priority Pathogens List (FPPL)-the first global effort to systematically prioritise fungal pathogens. Of the 19 pathogens in the WHO FPPL, four

Meiosis drives extraordinary genome plasticity in the haploid fungal plant pathogen Mycosphaerella graminicola [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Meiosis in the haploid plant-pathogenic fungus Mycosphaerella graminicola results in eight ascospores due to a mitotic division following the two meiotic divisions.

Plants for planting; indirect evidence for the movement of a serious forest pathogen, Teratosphaeria destructans, in Asia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fungal diseases caused by native pathogens and pathogens introduced with planting stock have a significant impact on exotic plantation forestry in the tropics.

CO(2) acts as a signalling molecule in populations of the fungal pathogen Candida albicans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
When colonising host-niches or non-animated medical devices, individual cells of the fungal pathogen Candida albicans expand into significant biomasses. Here we show that within such biomasses, fungal metabolically generated CO(2) acts as a communication

Phragmites australis Associates with Belowground Fungal Communities Characterized by High Diversity and Pathogen Abundance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Microbial symbionts are gaining attention as crucial drivers of invasive species spread and dominance. To date, much research has quantified the net effects of plant–microbe interactions on the relative success of native and invasive species ...

RIPCAL: a tool for alignment-based analysis of repeat-induced point mutations in fungal genomic sequences [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background Repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) is a fungal-specific genome defence mechanism that alters the sequences of repetitive DNA, thereby inactivating coding genes.

Dimorphism in fungal plant pathogens [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2008
Fungi are mostly sessile organisms, and thus have evolved ways to cope with environmental changes. Many fungi produce 'dormant' structures, which allow them to survive periods of unfavorable conditions. Another ingenious active approach to a changing environment has been adopted by the 'dimorphic fungi', which simply shift their thallic organization as

In silico reversal of repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) identifies the origins of repeat families and uncovers obscured duplicated genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) is a fungal genome defence mechanism guarding against transposon invasion. RIP mutates the sequence of repeated DNA and over time renders the affected regions unrecognisable by similarity search tools such ...
