Comparative ubiquitinome analysis reveals the roles of protein ubiquitination in the heat stress response from Metarhizium robertsii [PDF]
Protein ubiquitination plays a vital role in the stress response of diverse filamentous fungi. However, few reports are available on fungal insect pathogens, including Metarhizium.

Optimization of the Fermentation Conditions of Metarhizium robertsii and Its Biological Control of Wolfberry Root Rot Disease [PDF]
Fusarium solani is the main pathogenic fungus causing the root rot of wolfberry (Lycium barbarum). The endophytic fungus Metarhizium robertsii has been widely used for the biocontrol of plant pathogenic fungi, but the biocontrol effects of this fungus on

Histone deacetylase HDAC3 regulates ergosterol production for oxidative stress tolerance in the entomopathogenic and endophytic fungus Metarhizium robertsii [PDF]
Oxidative stress is encountered by fungi in almost all niches, resulting in fungal degeneration or even death. Fungal tolerance to oxidative stress has been extensively studied, but the current understanding of the mechanisms regulating oxidative stress ...

Mr-lac3 and Mr-lcc2 in <i>Metarhizium robertsii</i> Regulate Conidiation and Maturation, Enhancing Tolerance to Abiotic Stresses and Pathogenicity. [PDF]
As a type of multicopper oxidase, laccases play multiple biological roles in entomopathogenic fungi, enhancing their survival, development, and pathogenicity. However, the mechanisms by which laccases operate in these fungi remain under-researched.

Maize response to endophytic Metarhizium robertsii is altered by water stress. [PDF]
To defend against damage from environmental stress, plants have evolved strategies to respond to stress efficiently. One such strategy includes forming mutualist relationships with endophytes which confer stress-alleviating plant defensive and growth ...

Tillage type and sentinel insect species affect the relative prevalence of the entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium robertsii, in soil. [PDF]
Because the use of synthetic agrochemicals is generally not allowed in organic crop production systems, growers rely on natural substances and processes, such as microbial control, to suppress insect pests.

Isolation, morphological characterization, and screening virulence of Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium robertsii fungal isolatesĀ on Galleria mellonella [version 5; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
Background Entomopathogenic fungi exists naturally in plants as an asymptote and have the potential to reduce the population of insect pests through indirect interactions. This study was conducted to detect and characterize the endophytic fungi Beauveria
