Phylogenetic Reclassification of <i>Metarhizium granulomatis</i> and <i>Metarhizium viride</i> Species Complex. [PDF]

Pathogens
Metarhizium (M.) granulomatis and M. viride have previously been described as pathogens causing hyalohyphomycosis in various species of captive chameleons and bearded dragons (Pogona vitticeps). Previous studies yielded different genotypes of M. granulomatis and M.

Dual Disruption of the Immune Cytokine Spätzle Facilitates Fungal Infection of Diverse Insect Hosts. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
The Toll pathway is essential for insect defense against fungal pathogens. This works reports that fungal parasites employ two divergent virulent effectors to target the Toll receptor ligand Spätzle: a metalloprotease degrading it and a hairpin‐like effector hijacking it to block signal transduction. This dual strategy enables the fungus to kill a wide

Metarhizium alvesii sp. nov.: A new member of the Metarhizium anisopliae species complex [PDF]

Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2018
A strain within the Metarhizium anisopliae species complex was isolated in 2009 from a soil sample in a banana plantation in the municipality of Quixeré, Northeastern region of Brazil. Previous studies showed that this insect-pathogenic strain does not fit with any current taxon within the M.

Geographical Isolation and Root-Associated Fungi in the Marine Terrains: A Step Toward Establishing a Strategy for Acquiring Unique Microbial Resources

Mycobiology, 2021
This study aimed to understand whether the geo-ecological segregation of native plant species affects the root-associated fungal community. Rhizoplane (RP) and rhizosphere (RS) fungal microbiota of Sedum takesimense native to three geographically ...

Land-Use Type Drives Soil Population Structures of the Entomopathogenic Fungal Genus Metarhizium

Microorganisms, 2021
Species of the fungal genus Metarhizium are globally distributed pathogens of arthropods, and a number of biological control products based on these fungi have been commercialized to control a variety of pest arthropods. In this study, we investigate the

Intracellular proteome expression during 4-n-nonylphenol biodegradation by the filamentous fungus Metarhizium robertsii [PDF]

, 2014
4-n-nonylphenol (4-n-NP) is an endocrine disrupting compound (EDC); pollutants that cause serious disturbances in the environment. This study shows the degradation pathway and initial proteome analysis in cultures of a fungus that actively degrades 4-n-

A M35 family metalloprotease is required for fungal virulence against insects by inactivating host prophenoloxidases and beyond

Virulence, 2020
A diverse family of metalloproteases (MPs) is distributed in eukaryotes. However, the functions of MPs are still understudied. We report that seven MPs belonging to the M35 family are encoded in the genome of the insect pathogenic fungus Metarhizium ...
