Protein Composition of Infectious Spores Reveals Novel Sexual Development and Germination Factors in Cryptococcus. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2015
Spores are an essential cell type required for long-term survival across diverse organisms in the tree of life and are a hallmark of fungal reproduction, persistence, and dispersal.

The Global Patent Landscape of Mushroom‐Derived Functional Foods: Current Status, Future Perspectives, and Artificial Intelligence–Driven Exploration

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
The global patent landscape of mushroom‐derived functional food was widely analyzed, and AI‐integrated approaches realizing cost‐effective and reliable exploration of functional foods derived from mushrooms were explored. ABSTRACT Global health concerns and the increasing demand for nourishment have collectively driven the rising demand for functional ...

Spore germination and development of young mycelia in some Rhizopogon species

, 2000
Spore germination in Rhizopogon abietis, R. luteolus, R. roseolus and R. villosulus was induced in the presence of Rhodotorula glutinis and activated charcoal, in agar medium (N6:5). In one R.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community abundance, functions, and symbiotic interactions revealed by root metatranscriptomes

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Paradigm shift: PCR‐free methods reveal 6–15‐fold higher arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal abundance than metabarcoding, exposing systematic underestimation across decades of research. Predictive power: AM fungal abundance serves as a community‐level trait that predicts crop yield under drought conditions.

Infectious particle identity determines dissemination and disease outcome for the inhaled human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus.

PLoS Pathogens, 2019
The majority of invasive human fungal pathogens gain access to their human hosts via the inhalation of spores from the environment into the lung, but relatively little is known about this infectious process. Among human fungal pathogens the most frequent

Water activity, solute and temperature modify growth and spore production of wild type and genetically engineered Aspergillus niger strains. [PDF]

, 2004
The effect of interactions of water activity (aw) (0.99–0.90), temperature (20, 30 and 35 °C) and modifying aw solute (glycerol, NaCl) on growth and sporulation of a wild-type strain of Aspergillus niger (W) and two genetically engineered lysozyme ...

Functionally complementary bacterial inoculant coordinates arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi to improve Angelica sinensis root yield and quality

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Comprehensive understanding of how diverse PGPR strains enhance the rhizosphere microenvironment remains a considerable challenge. Here, we provide experimental evidence that a functionally synergistic composite microbial formulation can markedly enhance growth performance and improve the quality attributes in Angelica sinensis.

Quantification of airborne fungal antigens by ELISA and comparison to molecular biological and classical methods

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Airborne fungal spores are recognized for their human health impact, yet dose-response relationships remain undefined despite decades of bioaerosol sampling and analysis.

Multi‐omics biomarkers for intestinal infection and inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease: Current evidence, translational challenges, and diagnostic opportunities

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Prospective multi‐site cohorts, multi‐omics profiling, and computational analysis may help identify biomarker patterns across clinical settings in IBD and superimposed infections. With further mechanistic and clinical validation, these signals could support the development of practical multi‐analyte tools for more precise diagnosis and management ...

Asthma and the Diversity of Fungal Spores in Air

PLoS Pathogens, 2013
The diversity of fungal spores in air is vast ([1], [2], Figure 1), but research on asthma focuses on a handful of easily identified, culturable species. Ecologists are developing new tools to probe communities and identify the full complement of fungi in habitats.
