Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 4, Issue 2, February 2025.Abstract Phoma stem canker disease of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) is caused by the extracellular fungal pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans. Although this pathogen resides exclusively in apoplastic spaces surrounding plant cells, the significance of extracellular vesicles (EVs) has not been assessed.

Starvation Induces Expression of the Plant-Adhesin Gene, Mad2, of the Entomopathogenic Fungus Metarhizium robertsii. [PDF]
, 2013 Metarhizium robertsii is an entomopathogenic fungus that is additionally plant rhizosphere competent. Two adhesin-encoding gens, Mad1 and Mad2, are involved in insect pathogenesis or plant root colonization, respectively.

A study on the dynamics of the symbiosis between Metarhizium and plants [PDF]
, 2020 Members of the Metarhizium genus exist as both insect pathogens and plant endophytes. Agricultural formulations of these fungi are utilized for their biocontrol of insect pests and numerous additional benefits for crop plants (i.e., nutrient transfer ...

Reprogramming the virulence: Insect defense molecules navigating the epigenetic landscape ofMetarhizium robertsii [PDF]
Virulence, 2018 Metarhizium species are the leading bio-control agents well characterized regarding pathogenicity to agricultural, forest, public health, stored grains and urban insect pests. They infect the target host through the tight conidial adherence with the insect cuticle.

Frequent horizontal chromosome transfer between asexual fungal insect pathogens [PDF]
Entire chromosomes are typically only transmitted vertically from one generation to the next. The horizontal transfer of such chromosomes has long been considered improbable, yet gained recent support in several pathogenic fungi where it may affect the ...

Journal of Biological Control, 2018 Studies were conducted to systematically isolate Metarhizium isolates from the insect cadavers and soils of South India. Morphological and PCR amplified sequences of 5.8S ITS regions and RNA polymerase II largest subunit (RPB1) gene regions were used to identify the isolates at species level.
