The Still Underestimated Problem of Fungal Diseases Worldwide

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
In the past few years, fungal diseases caused estimated over 1.6 million deaths annually and over one billion people suffer from severe fungal diseases (Brown et al., 2012; Anonymous, 2017b). Public health surveillance of fungal diseases is generally not

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

, 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.

Real-time quantitative PCR for analysis of candidate fungal biopesticides against malaria: Technique validation and first applications [PDF]

, 2009
Recent research has indicated that fungal biopesticides could augment existing malaria vector control tools. Here we present a set of methodologies to monitor the in vivo kinetics of entomopathogenic fungi in Anopheles in the presence or absence of ...

National-scale investigation reveals the dominant role of phyllosphere fungal pathogens in sorghum yield loss

Environment International
Fungal plant pathogens threaten crop production and sustainable agricultural development. However, the environmental factors driving their diversity and nationwide biogeographic model remain elusive, impacting our capacity to predict their changes under ...

Comparative Analysis of the Microbial Community Structures Between Healthy and Anthracnose-Infected Strawberry Rhizosphere Soils Using Illumina Sequencing Technology in Yunnan Province, Southwest of China

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum spp. was widespread in recent years and resulted in great damage to strawberry production. Soil microbial communities were key contributors to host nutrition, development, and immunity; however, the difference between

Pathogenic Fungal Infection in the Lung [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Respiratory fungal infection is a severe clinical problem, especially in patients with compromised immune functions. Aspergillus, Cryptococcus, Pneumocystis, and endemic fungi are major pulmonary fungal pathogens that are able to result in life-threatening invasive diseases.

Variation in resistance to multiple pathogen species:anther-smuts of Silene uniflora [PDF]

, 2012
The occurrence of multiple pathogen species on a shared host species is unexpected when they exploit the same micro-niche within the host. One explanation for such observations is the evolution of pathogen-specific resistances that segregate the host ...

Fusarium chlamydosporum, causing wilt disease of chili (Capsicum annum L.) and brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) in Northern Himalayas: a first report

Scientific Reports, 2022
Chili (Capsicum annuum L.) and brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) are the most widely grown solanaceous crops in the world. However, their production has reduced over several years due to the attack of various fungal and bacterial pathogens and various ...

mNGS-based dynamic pathogen monitoring for accurate diagnosis and treatment of severe pneumonia caused by fungal infections

Biosafety and Health, 2023
Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has been widely applied to identify pathogens associated with infectious diseases. However, limited studies have explored the use of mNGS-based dynamic pathogen monitoring in intensive care unit patients with
