Insights into Adaptations to a Near- Obligate Nematode Endoparasitic Lifestyle from the Finished Genome of Drechmeria coniospora [PDF]

, 2016
Nematophagous fungi employ three distinct predatory strategies: nematode trapping, parasitism of females and eggs, and endoparasitism. While endoparasites play key roles in controlling nematode populations in nature, their application for integrated pest

Social immunity modulates competition between coinfecting pathogens [PDF]

, 2020
Coinfections with multiple pathogens can result in complex within‐host dynamics affecting virulence and transmission. While multiple infections are intensively studied in solitary hosts, it is so far unresolved how social host interactions interfere with

Entomopathogenic fungi decrease Rhizoctonia disease in potato in field conditions [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Rhizoctonia potato disease is widespread in the world and causes substantial yield and quality losses in potato. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of entomopathogenic fungi Metarhizium robertsii and Beauveria bassiana in the inhibition of potato ...

Medio suplementado con polvo de pupas de insectos para inducir el crecimiento de Beauveria bassiana y Metarhizium robertsii y la patogenicidad de Metarhizium robertsii

Revista Colombiana de Entomología, 2023
El uso de cutícula de insectos es una opción viable para inducir el crecimiento de hongos entomopatógenos. Se obtuvo polvo de pupas de Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf) y Heliothis virescens (Hv), el cual se adicionó para enriquecer al medio de cultivo Papa Dextrosa Agar (PDA) a concentraciones de 0,25, 0,5 y 1 %.

Ultrastructural and Cytotoxic Effects of Metarhizium robertsii Infection on Rhipicephalus microplus Hemocytes. [PDF]

Front Physiol, 2019
Metarhizium is an entomopathogenic fungus widely employed in the biological control of arthropods. Hemocytes present in the hemolymph of invertebrates are the cells involved in the immune response of arthropods. Despite this, knowledge about Rhipicephalus microplus hemocytes morphological aspects as well as their role in response to the fungal ...

Virulence of in vivo and in vitro produced conidia of Metarhizium brunneum strains for control of wireworms [PDF]

, 2014
Wireworms are the soil inhabiting larvae of click beetles and can cause severe damage to arable crops such as potatoes (Solanum tuberosum, L.). Several strains of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium brunneum (Petch) are pathogenic to wireworms.

The Sugar Transporter MST1 Is Involved in Colonization of Rhizosphere and Rhizoplane by Metarhizium robertsii

mSystems, 2021
It is widely recognized that plant-symbiotic fungi are supported by photosynthates; however, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying the utilization of plant-derived sugars by rhizospheric fungi.

MrSkn7 Controls Sporulation, Cell Wall Integrity, Autolysis, and Virulence in Metarhizium robertsii [PDF]

Eukaryotic Cell, 2015
ABSTRACT Two-component signaling pathways generally include sensor histidine kinases and response regulators. We identified an ortholog of the response regulator protein Skn7 in the insect-pathogenic fungus Metarhizium robertsii , which we named MrSkn7. Gene deletion assays and functional characterizations
