Escovopsioides as a fungal antagonist of the fungus cultivated by leafcutter ants
Background Fungus gardens of fungus-growing (attine) ants harbor complex microbiomes in addition to the mutualistic fungus they cultivate for food. Fungi in the genus Escovopsioides were recently described as members of this microbiome but their role in ...

Abstract Soil–plant–microbe interactions are integral throughout most terrestrial ecosystems, yet the importance of plant phenology and seasonal dynamism upon these relationships remains unknown. Given the pronounced seasonality of alpine environments, we sampled eight plant species occurring in two habitats (alpine meadow and subnival zone) across ...

Tactics of applying entomopathogenic fungi in the control of Plutella xylostella and Brevicoryne brassicae [PDF]
Plutella xylostella L., 1758 (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) and Brevicoryne brassicae L., 1758 (Hemiptera: Aphididae) are important pests of Brassicaceae, causing significant damage that makes human consumption of these vegetables impossible.

Infection Models for Pine Wilt Disease on the Basis of Vector Behaviors
Infection models for pine wilt disease without vector density were built to estimate the transmission coefficient of the pathogenic nematode. The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

New opportunities for the integration of microorganisms into biological pest control systems in greenhouse crops [PDF]
Biological pest control with mass-produced arthropod natural enemies is well developed in greenhouse crops and has often resulted in the evolution of complex ecosystems with persistent populations of multiple arthropod natural enemy species.

High diversity of Trichonectria (Hypocreales) inhabiting Usnea in Bolivia
The Neotropics, particularly mountain cloud forests, are characterized by a high diversity of microfungi that inhabit lichens. However, based on our field studies, many of these microfungi remain undescribed, and their phylogenetic relationships are poorly understood. This study focuses on Bolivian lichenicolous Trichonectria inhabiting the genus Usnea
