Towards a Novel Biocontrol Strategy: High Performance of Optimised Cell Wall‐Degrading Enzymes Secreted by Escovopsis primorosea LBM 277

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
Escovopsis primorosea LBM 277 efficiently produced proteases, β‐1,3‐glucanases and chitinases under submerged fermentation using Leucoagaricus gongylophorus cell walls and Mandels complex. RSM‐BBD optimization significantly increased enzyme activity. The enzymatic cocktail remained stable for 30 days at room temperature and pH 4–6, aligning with the ...

Conidia of the insect pathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae, fail to adhere to mosquito larval cuticle [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2014
Adhesion of conidia of the insect pathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae, to the arthropod host cuticle initially involves hydrophobic forces followed by consolidation facilitated by the action of extracellular enzymes and secretion of mucilage.

Understanding the Hygienic Behavioral Dynamics of Ants Using Multi‐State Models

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 4, Page 361-370, April 2026.
Leaf‐cutting ants adjust grooming to pathogen risk and vulnerable nestmates. Multi‐state Markov models reveal shorter, frequent self‐grooming bouts and reduced allogrooming persistence under stress, optimizing social immunity via stigmergic decision‐making.

GameXPeptide synergistically enhances the control efficiency of Metarhizium anisopliae by inhibiting cotton aphid immunity

New Plant Protection, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
In this research, GXP serves as a potent synergist for Metarhizium anisopliae in controlling cotton aphids. Its synergistic effect is achieved through two key mechanisms: first, by downregulating melanization protease 1 expression to inhibit phenoloxidase activity, thereby suppressing melanization; second, by reducing hypoxanthine levels, which ...

Protein kinases in the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1990
Summary: Cyclic AMP (cAMP)- and Ca2+-dependent protein kinase activities of the fungus Metarhizium anisopliae were sought in extracts of ungerminated conidia, germinating conidia and mycelium, as well as in purified plasma membranes from mycelium. Ungerminated conidia contained a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase capable of phosphorylating ...

Molecular and Structural Characterization of Foam Proteins from Mahanarva spectabilis (Distant, 1909) (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) Nymphs Reveals Adaptive Features and Potential Targets for Pest Control

Archives of Insect Biochemistry and Physiology, Volume 121, Issue 2, February 2026.
Nymphs of Mahanarva spectabilis produce a protective foam that supports survival, reduces plant damage, and contributes to adult population establishment. Proteomic profiling combined with protein sequencing and structural modeling revealed foam proteins enriched in functional domains associated with environmental resilience.
