Microcycle conidiation by regenerating protoplasts of Aspergillus awamori
Experimental Mycology, 1982Abstract Enzymatically prepared protoplasts of Aspergillus awamori regenerate cell walls and become resistant to osmotic shock within 4 hours after their removal from the digestion mixture. By 6 hours, germ tubes have been formed by many of the reverting protoplasts.

Microcycle conidiation in Penicillium urticae: an ultrastructural investigation of conidiogenesis
Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1975A cultivation system has been developed for Penicillium urticae which yields 'microcycle' conidiation in submerged culture. Spherical growth of spores was initiated by incubation at 37 °C in a growth-favoring medium. Transfer of these enlarged spores to a nitrogen-poor medium at 35 °C results in synchronous germination and limited outgrowth followed ...

Effect of metabolic inhibitors on microcycle conidiation of Aspergillus niger
Transactions of the British Mycological Society, 1979The effects of several metabolic inhibitors on normal spore germination and microcycle conidiation in Aspergillus niger van Teigh. were examined. Normal spore germination showed the greatest susceptibility to inhibition, followed by conidiation, while giant cell formation (vegetative growth) was the least susceptible.

Microcycle conidiation in the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana bals. (vuill.)
Process Biochemistry, 1999Abstract The present work documents the experimental conditions under which the three types of two local strains of Beauveria bassiana conidia enter into a microcycle conidiation process (conidiation without vegetative phase). Different levels of different C (glucose and starch) and N sources (KNO3, NH4Cl, glutamate and peptone) were added to a basal

Spore Germination and Microcycle Conidiation of Two Penicillia in Soil
Mycologia, 1984Laboratory-produced spores of two penicillia isolated from soil were placed onto PVC membrane filters, inserted into microholders and buried in the A horizon of an oak-birch forest. After various intervals of time incubation filters were retrieved, stained, and mounted on glass slides for examination.

Effect of medium composition on microcycle conidiation in Aspergillus niger
Transactions of the British Mycological Society, 1986The effect of the physical and chemical environment on microcycle conidiation in A. niger has been studied in a 5 1 fermenter. It appears that temperature is the critical factor for giant-cell formation and germ-tube suppression, the addition of CO2 having little effect.

DNA, RNA and protein biosynthesis during microcycle conidiation in Aspergillus niger
Transactions of the British Mycological Society, 1978The levels of DNA, RNA and protein were determined at different stages throughout microcycle conidiation in Aspergillus niger van Tiegh. The period of maximum accumulation of these cellular components occurred during spore growth rather than the period of conidiophore outgrowth.

Mmc, a gene involved in microcycle conidiation of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae
Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2010Microcycle conidiation is a survival mechanism for some fungi encountering unfavorable conditions, in which asexual spores germinate secondary spores directly without formation of mycelium. Here, we isolated a microcycle conidiation associated gene, Mmc, from Metarhizium anisopliae and obtained its full length of cDNA and DNA sequence.

Production of conidia of Penicillium camemberti in liquid medium through microcycles of conidiation
Biotechnology Letters, 2014Microcycle conidiation is a survival mechanism of fungi encountering unfavorable conditions. In this phenomenon, asexual spores germinate secondary spores directly without formation of mycelium. As Penicillium camemberti conidia have the ability to produce conidiophores after germination in liquid culture induced by a thermal stress (18 and 30 °C), our
