Alteration of Fermentative Metabolism Enhances Mucor circinelloides Virulence. [PDF]
Infect Immun, 2020 The fungus Mucor circinelloides undergoes yeast-mold dimorphism, a developmental process associated with its capability as a human opportunistic pathogen. Dimorphism is strongly influenced by carbon metabolism, and hence the type of metabolism likely affects fungus virulence.

Antimycotic Activity of Some Medicinal Plants against Mucor circinelloides. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2022 The in vitro antimycotic activity of the leaf extract of Catharanthus roseus, Lantana camara, Nerium indicum, Sida cordifolia, and Ziziphus mauritiana was studied against M. circinelloides. This fungal species causes mucormycosis (black fungus). Presently, mucormycosis is affecting COVID patients due to prolonged use of steroids.
