Photobiology of the keystone genus Metarhizium
Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B: Biology, 2022Metarhizium fungi are soil-inhabiting ascomycetes which are saprotrophs, symbionts of plants, pathogens of insects, and participate in other trophic/ecological interactions, thereby performing multiple essential ecosystem services. Metarhizium species are used to control insect pests of crop plants and insects that act as vectors of human and animal ...

Metarhizium: an opportunistic middleman for multitrophic lifestyles
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2022Metarhizium spp. mediate multiple interactions that are usually positive with respect to their long-term plant environment, and negative with respect to short-lived hosts. In particular, their ability to kill a wide range of insects maximizes protection to the plants and provides a resource of nitrogen that the fungus trades with the plant for carbon ...

The multifunctional lifestyles of Metarhizium: evolution and applications
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2020The genus Metarhizium is comprised of a diverse group of common soil fungi that exhibit multifunctional lifestyles with varying degrees of saprotrophic, endophytic, and insect pathogenic modes of nutrient acquisition. The transcriptome of these species is modulated to reflect immediate needs of the fungus and availability of resources-a form of ...

Serendipity in the wrestle between Trichoderma and Metarhizium
Fungal Biology, 2020The fungal species Trichoderma is frequently found in soil antagonizing plant-pathogenic fungi as well as parasitizing plant-pathogenic nematodes. Metarhizium species are insect-pathogenic fungi that are used throughout the world to control agricultural insect pests. Here, we determine whether the antagonism (A) of Trichoderma atroviride to Metarhizium
