Multi‐Omics Analyses Reveal Divergent Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Plant Biomass Conversion by Five Fungi

MicrobiologyOpen
Fungal plant biomass conversion (FPBC) is of great importance to the global carbon cycle and has been increasingly applied for the production of biofuel and biochemicals from lignocellulose.

Transcriptional response of the white-rot fungus Dichomitus squalens to polysaccharides reveals a co-expression network of plant biomass conversion related genes

Current Research in Biotechnology
Wood-degrading white-rot fungi can efficiently degrade all plant biomass components, but the molecular mechanisms behind the degradation of plant polysaccharides remain poorly understood.

FGMP: assessing fungal genome completeness

BMC Bioinformatics, 2019
Background Inexpensive high-throughput DNA sequencing has democratized access to genetic information for most organisms so that research utilizing a genome or transcriptome of an organism is not limited to model systems.

Approaches to Fungal Genome Annotation

Mycology, 2011
Fungal genome annotation is the starting point for analysis of genome content. This generally involves the application of diverse methods to identify features on a genome assembly such as protein-coding and non-coding genes, repeats and transposable elements, and pseudogenes. Here we describe tools and methods leveraged for eukaryotic genome annotation

Fungal Genomic Annotation [PDF]

, 2006
Sequencing technology in the last decade has advanced at an incredible pace. Currently there are hundreds of microbial genomes available with more still to come. Automated genome annotation aims to analyze this amount of sequence data in a high-throughput fashion and help researches to understand the biology of these organisms.

Dissecting the complex regulation of pentose utilization in Aspergillus niger

Current Research in Microbial Sciences
L-Arabinose and D-xylose are abundantly present in nature as components of plant cell wall polysaccharides. Fungi mainly use the Pentose Catabolic Pathway (PCP) for conversion of these sugars into central carbon metabolism.

Hsf1 and Hsp90 orchestrate temperature-dependent global transcriptional remodelling and chromatin architecture in Candida albicans

Nature Communications, 2016
The transcription factor Hsf1 and the molecular chaperone Hsp90 modulate the heat shock response in the pathogen Candida albicans. Here, Leach et al. reveal a complex interplay between the two factors that regulates the expression of genes involved in ...

Genome-wide functional annotation of Phomopsis longicolla isolate MSPL 10-6

Genomics Data, 2016
Phomopsis seed decay of soybean is caused primarily by the seed-borne fungal pathogen Phomopsis longicolla (syn. Diaporthe longicolla). This disease severely decreases soybean seed quality, reduces seedling vigor and stand establishment, and suppresses ...

CAZome comparison in relation to host plant for selected Sordariomycete and Dothidiomycete plant pathogenic fungi

Frontiers in Fungal Biology
IntroductionWhile most studies focus on the effectors involved in plant infection, another important aspect is the degradation of the plant cell wall, as this is the main physical barrier protecting the plant from pathogens.
