Fungal pathogens of Proteaceae [PDF]

Persoonia - 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.

Molecular Tools for Detection and Identification of Paracoccidioides Species: Current Status and Future Perspectives

Journal of Fungi, 2020
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a mycotic disease caused by the Paracoccidioides species, a group of thermally dimorphic fungi that grow in mycelial form at 25 °C and as budding yeasts when cultured at 37 °C or when parasitizing the host tissues.
