The endophytic fungi Metarhizium, Pochonia, and Trichoderma, improve salt tolerance in hemp (Cannabis sativa L.).

PLoS ONE
Colonization of plants by fungal endophytes can improve plant growth and can assist in adaptation to biotic and abiotic stresses. The fungal endophytes Metarhizium robertsii and Pochonia chlamydosporia were previously shown to improve hemp growth.

Transcription Factor SsNdt80b Maintains Optimal Expression of SsSNF1 to Modulate Growth and Pathogenicity in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 4, April 2025.
This study reveals that SsNdt80b regulates carbon utilisation and pathogenicity in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum by modulating SsSNF1, affecting growth, development and virulence. ABSTRACT Microorganisms use versatile strategies to facilitate the colonisation of hosts, through remodelling transcription and metabolism to accommodate growth under harsh and ...

Metarhizium fungi as plant symbionts

New Plant Protection, Volume 2, Issue 1, March 2025.
Metarhizium species are entomopathogenic and plant mutualistic fungi that mainly colonize the rhizosphere and rhizoplane with root epidermal cells being sporadically occupied. These fungi utilize plant‐derived sugars and fatty acids to establish associations with plants, which, in turn, facilitate plant’s utilization of insect‐derived nitrogen and ...

Potential mechanisms implied in tick infection by arboviruses and their transmission to vertebrate hosts

Integrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 2, Page 315-330, March 2025.
We summarize the recent progress in understanding defense mechanisms in specific tissues or sites that are encountered by arboviruses and discuss their possible roles in virus infection or transmission. Abstract Ticks can transmit many pathogens, including arboviruses, to their vertebrate hosts.

Sleepers and Creepers, Colony Polymorphisms in Metarhizium robertsii

, 2020
In this thesis I attempt to identify, describe, and explain the vast colony polymorphism differences observed in Metarhizium robertsii from a physical and genetic standpoint. These descriptions provide a framework to explain the colony polymorphisms seen

Three sympatrically occurring species of Metarhizium show plant rhizosphere specificity

, 2011
Here we tested the hypothesis that species of the soil-inhabiting insect-pathogenic fungus Metarhizium are not randomly distributed in soils but show plant-rhizosphere-specific associations.

Isolation and characterization of Beauveria and Metarhizium spp. from walnut fields and their pathogenicity against the codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae)

Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2018
Entomopathogenic fungi (EPFs) play an important role for regulating insect pest populations, as they exist in many different ecosystems. Within these fungi, Beauveria and Metarhizium spp.

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

Virulence, 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 ...

Field Efficacy of Metarhizium robertsii (LCM S15) for Controlling Free-Living Stages of Gastrointestinal Nematodes in Goats

Pathogens
The rise in anthelmintic resistance in small ruminants has driven the search for sustainable control alternatives. Among these, entomopathogenic fungi such as Metarhizium robertsii stand out for their potential to reduce the free-living stages of ...
