Sho1 is an important membrane sensor upstream of the HOG-MAPK signaling pathway, which plays critical roles in osmotic pressure response, growth, and virulence in fungi. Here, a Sho1 homolog (MaSho1), containing four transmembrane domains and one Src homology (SH3) domain, was characterized in Metarhizium acridum, a fungal pathogen of locusts. Targeted

The control of Visceral Leishmaniasis (VL) vector is often based on the application of chemical residual insecticide. However, this strategy has not been effective. The continuing search for an appropriate vector control may include the use of biological control. This study evaluates the effects of the fungus Metarhizium anisopliae var.

Possible source of the high UV-B and heat tolerance of Metarhizium acridum (isolate ARSEF 324)
Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2018The isolate ARSEF 324 of Metarhizium acridum is very tolerant to UV-B radiation and heat, but the intrinsic traits behind the extreme tolerance of this isolate to both stress conditions have not been elucidated. Because trehalose and mannitol are documented stress reducers in fungi, we investigated the accumulation of these compounds in conidia of ...

Metarhizium acridum exhibits a different conidial hydrophobicity than other insect-pathogenic fungi
Fungal BiologyMetarhizium acridum is an insect-pathogenic fungus with a narrow host range that is used to control grasshoppers, locusts, and crickets. Its conidia show impressive resilience against UV-B radiation and heat compared to other insect pathogens. Despite this high tolerance, M. acridum is notably susceptible to various chemical stressors.

Unveiling the functions of the
AbstractBACKGROUNDThe Lim‐domain binding protein PtaB, a homolog of Mfg1, governs conidiation and biofilm formation in several fungi. PtaB includes a conserved Lim‐binding domain and two predicted nuclear localization sequences at its C terminus, and is co‐regulated with the transcription factor Som1 downstream of the cyclic AMP‐dependent protein ...

Effect of the fungus Metarhizium anisopliae var. acridum on non-target arthropods in Brazil
2002A biopesticide based on the fungus Metarhizium anisopliae var. acridum, isolate CG 423, has shown to be efficient against the grasshopper Rhammatocerus schistocercoides (Rehn), a serious agricultural pest in Mato Grosso, Brazil. In order to assess the effects of this biopesticide on nontarget arthropods, field tests were carried out in Mato Grosso ...
