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

open access: yesJournal 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.

The genome sequence of the biocontrol fungus Metarhizium anisopliae and comparative genomics of Metarhizium species [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2014
Metarhizium anisopliae is an important fungal biocontrol agent of insect pests of agricultural crops. Genomics can aid the successful commercialization of biopesticides by identification of key genes differentiating closely related species, selection of virulent microbial isolates which are amenable to industrial scale production and formulation and ...

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

open access: yesMycobiology, 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

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 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

COMPATIBILITY OF Vertimec 1.8% EC WITH OLEANDER EXTRACT AND SOME INSECT PATHOGENS AND FIELD TEST ON RED DUST MITE (Tetranychius urticae KOCH.) ON EGGPLANT AND PEPPER [PDF]

open access: yesMesopotamia Journal of Agriculture
The study used some biological control components and evaluated them against the two-spotted mite Tetranychius urticae Koch. on eggplant and pepper crops in the spring season in Salah al-Din Government, Iraq. The laboratory study included a compatibility

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

open access: yesVirulence, 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 ...

Characterization of a new strain of Metarhizium novozealandicum with potential to be developed as a biopesticide

open access: yesMycology, 2021
The fungal species Metarhizium novozealandicum, that occurs only in New Zealand and Australia has been poorly studied.  In this work, a new strain of M. novozealandicum isolated from a larva of Wiseana sp.

Natural prevalence of entomopathogenic fungi in hibernating pupae of Cameraria ohridella (Lepidoptera: Gracillariidae) and virulence of selected isolates

open access: yesPlant Protection Science, 2016
Spontaneous infection of hibernating Cameraria ohridella pupae by entomopathogenic fungi was monitored at two localities of south-western Slovakia and efficacy of selected fungal isolates against the pupae was evaluated in laboratory.

Production of Mutagenic Metabolites by Metarhizium anisopliae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2006
NG-391 (1) and NG-393 (2), previously reported from undescribed Fusarium species as nerve-cell growth stimulants, were identified from fermentation extracts of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae. These compounds are 7-desmethyl analogues of fusarin C and (8Z)-fusarin C, mutagenic toxins from Fusarium species that contaminate corn.

Abscisic acid implicated in differential plant responses of Phaseolus vulgaris during endophytic colonization by Metarhizium and pathogenic colonization by Fusarium

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Metarhizium robertsii is an insect pathogen as well as an endophyte, and can antagonize the phytopathogen, Fusarium solani during bean colonization. However, plant immune responses to endophytic colonization by Metarhizium are largely unknown. We applied
