A population-level invasion by transposable elements triggers genome expansion in a fungal pathogen

bioRxiv, 2020
Genome evolution is driven by the activity of transposable elements (TEs). The spread of TEs can have deleterious effects including the destabilization of genome integrity and expansions.

GalR, GalX and AraR co‐regulate d‐galactose and l‐arabinose utilization in Aspergillus nidulans

Microbial Biotechnology, 2022
Summary Filamentous fungi produce a wide variety of enzymes in order to efficiently degrade plant cell wall polysaccharides. The production of these enzymes is controlled by transcriptional regulators, which also control the catabolic pathways that ...

Transcriptome analysis of Aspergillus niger xlnR and xkiA mutants grown on corn Stover and soybean hulls reveals a highly complex regulatory network

BMC Genomics, 2019
Background Enzymatic plant biomass degradation by fungi is a highly complex process and one of the leading challenges in developing a biobased economy. Some industrial fungi (e.g.

Deletion of either the regulatory gene ara1 or metabolic gene xki1 in Trichoderma reesei leads to increased CAZyme gene expression on crude plant biomass

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Background Trichoderma reesei is one of the major producers of enzymes for the conversion of plant biomass to sustainable fuels and chemicals. Crude plant biomass can induce the production of CAZymes in T.

A comparative genomics study of 23 Aspergillus species from section Flavi

Nature Communications, 2020
Aspergillus fungi classified within the section Flavi include harmful and beneficial species. Here, Kjærbølling et al. analyse the genomes of 23 Flavi species, showing high genetic diversity and potential for synthesis of over 13,700 CAZymes and 1600 ...

Distinct Roles of Two DNA Methyltransferases from Cryphonectria parasitica in Fungal Virulence, Responses to Hypovirus Infection, and Viral Clearance

mBio, 2021
Although relatively few in number, studies of DNA methylation have shown that fungal DNA methylation is implicated in development, genome integrity, and genome defense.

Cinnamic Acid and Sorbic acid Conversion Are Mediated by the Same Transcriptional Regulator in Aspergillus niger

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019
Cinnamic acid is an aromatic compound commonly found in plants and functions as a central intermediate in lignin synthesis. Filamentous fungi are able to degrade cinnamic acid through multiple metabolic pathways.

The role of effectors in nonhost resistance to filamentous plant pathogens [PDF]

, 2014
In nature, most plants are resistant to a wide range of phytopathogens. However, mechanisms contributing to this so-called nonhost resistance (NHR) are poorly understood.
