As a conserved post-translational modification, O-mannosyltransferase families play important roles in many cellular processes. Three subfamilies (MaPmt1, MaPmt2 and MaPmt4) are grouped in Metarhizium acridum according to sequence homology. The functions of MaPmt1 and MaPmt4 have been characterized in M. acridum previously. In this study, the functions

The Rab GTPase activating protein Gyp2 contributes to UV stress tolerance in Metarhizium acridum
World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2018GTPase activation protein (GAP) for Rab GTPases can accelerate GTP hydrolysis to alter the activity of Rab GTPases. To explore the function of GAP in entomopathogenic fungi, we constructed a deletion mutant of Gyp2 gene, a member of the Gyp (GAP for Ypt/Rab proteins) family in the locust-specific fungal pathogen, Metarhizium acridum.

A glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (gpd) promoter (PMagpd) was obtained from Metarhizium acridum and its active region analyzed by 5'-deletion strategy using β-glucuronidase (GUS) as a reporter. Sequence analysis revealed that typical regulatory elements of PMagpd were included in the 1.7 kb region upstream of the start codon of the Magpd ...

Calcineurin is highly conserved and regulates growth, conidiation, stress response, and pathogenicity in fungi. However, the functions of calcineurin and its regulatory network in entomopathogenic fungi are not clear. In this study, calcineurin was functionally analyzed by deleting the catalytic subunit MaCnA from the entomopathogenic fungus ...

For pathogens, the ability to acquire available nutrients in a host is a key to their survival and replication. Entomopathogenic fungi of the genus Metarhizium secrete trehalase, which enables them to use trehalose, the predominant sugar in insects. Here, the roles of the acid trehalase gene (ATM1) in the in vivo growth and virulence of Metarhizium ...

Metarhizium acridum is a well-established specialist entomopathogenic fungus that primarily targets arthropods within the order Orthoptera. In this study, we investigated the genomic characteristics of a novel mycovirus infecting M. acridum, named "Metarhizium acridum unirnavirus 1" (MaUV1).

We describe a technique to detect the presence of airborne conidia from the fungus M.acridum (formerly Metarhizium anisopliae var. acridum) (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae) with great accuracy. Airborne conidia were collected using Hirst-type spore traps. DNA extractions were optimized to achieve the best possible recovery.

Design of an efficient fermentation process for the production of Metarhizium acridum blastospores
Biocontrol Science and Technology, 2016ABSTRACTUsing a sequential approach, we described efficient blastospore production in a stirred tank bioreactor (3 L capacity). We used the response surface methodology to optimise the media ingredients and fermentation parameters to obtain the maximum production of blastospores by a locally collected isolate of Metarhizium acridum (Ascomycota ...
