Genes involved in carotene synthesis and mating in Blakeslea trispora [PDF]

, 2008
Mating of Blakeslea trispora and other molds of the order Mucorales requires the interaction of mycelia of opposite sex, (+) and (-), leading to the development of specialized structures and to an enhanced accumulation of beta-carotene.

Genetic Manipulation in Mucorales and New Developments to Study Mucormycosis

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
The study of the Mucoralean fungi physiology is a neglected field that the lack of effective genetic tools has hampered in the past. However, the emerging fungal infection caused by these fungi, known as mucormycosis, has prompted many researchers to ...

Evaluation of serum Mucorales PCR for the diagnosis of Mucormycoses: The MODIMUCOR prospective trial.

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2022
BACKGROUND Early diagnosis and prompt initiation of specific antifungal treatment is essential for improving the prognosis of mucormycosis. We aimed to assess the performance of serum Mucorales quantitative PCR (qPCR) for the early diagnosis and follow ...

Metalaxyl degradation by Mucorales strains Gongronella sp. and Rhizopus oryzae [PDF]

, 2017
In this study, the degradation of metalaxyl was investigated in the presence of two Mucorales strains, previously isolated from soil subjected to repeated treatments with this fungicide and selected after enrichment technique.

An Antimicrobial Peptidomimetic Induces Mucorales Cell Death through Mitochondria-Mediated Apoptosis [PDF]

, 2013
The incidence of mucormycosis has dramatically increased in immunocompromised patients. Moreover, the array of cellular targets whose inhibition results in fungal cell death is rather limited.

Species Diversity and Ecological Habitat of Absidia (Cunninghamellaceae, Mucorales) with Emphasis on Five New Species from Forest and Grassland Soil in China

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Although species of Absidia are known to be ubiquitous in soil, animal dung, and insect and plant debris, the species diversity of the genus and their ecological habitats have not been sufficiently investigated.

Identification of Mucormycosis by Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization Targeting Ribosomal RNA in Tissue Samples

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Mucormycosis is an invasive fungal infection associated with high mortality, partly due to delayed diagnosis and inadequate empiric therapy. As fungal cultures often fail to grow Mucorales, identification of respective hyphae in tissue is frequently ...
