Diversity and Distribution of Soil Fungi in Neotropical Mexican Forests

Biotropica, Volume 58, Issue 2, March 2026.
Soil fungal diversity across the Mexican Neotropics remains poorly characterized despite its ecological importance. Using the Global Soil Mycobiome dataset from 55 sites, we identified eight distinct fungal community groups structured primarily by vegetation type and climatic gradients.

Biotrophic Interactions Between a Mycoparasitic Ampelomyces Fungus and Podosphaera xanthii on Fungicide‐Treated Melon Leaves

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
The digital micrographs show images of the infection progress by the mycoparasitic Ampelomyces strain in a melon powdery mildew fungus Podosphaera xanthii that was treated with kresoxim‐methyl and sprayed with Ampelomyces spores under the high‐humidity conditions of a growth chamber.

From beginning to end: the synecology of tree‐killing bark beetles, fungi, and trees

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 314-335, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Over a century of research has revealed an amazing complexity of behaviours and physiological adaptations that allow tiny bark beetles to overcome large trees, sometimes resulting in outbreaks that kill millions of trees. Turning a tree into a home and successfully raising offspring involves constant interactions among the beetles, the tree ...

Identification of signatory secondary metabolites during mycoparasitism of Rhizoctonia solani by Stachybotrys elegans

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
Stachybotrys elegans is able to parasitize the fungal plant pathogen Rhizoctonia solani AG-3 following a complex and intimate interaction, which, among others, includes the production of cell wall-degrading enzymes, intracellular colonization, and ...

Characterization of mechanisms underlying degradation of sclerotia of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum by Aspergillus aculeatus Asp-4 using a combined qRT-PCR and proteomic approach

BMC Genomics, 2017
Background The biological control agent Aspergillus aculeatus Asp-4 colonizes and degrades sclerotia of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum resulting in reduced germination and disease caused by this important plant pathogen.

Mixed Impacts of the Mycovirus Fusarium Culmorum Phenuivirus 1 on Fusarium culmorum: Laboratory and In Planta Investigations

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Fusarium culmorum phenuivirus 1 caused no changes in laboratory‐based assays and shows mild hypovirulence in a susceptible wheat cultivar under semifield conditions. It is highly transmissible both via spores and hyphal contact. ABSTRACT The mycovirus Fusarium culmorum phenuivirus 1 (FcPV1) infects the wheat pathogen Fusarium culmorum, a causal agent ...

A glimpse into darkness: Diversity of culturable cyanobacteria, green algae and fungi from subaerial cave biofilms

Journal of Phycology, Volume 61, Issue 6, Page 1699-1717, December 2025.
Abstract Caves and hypogean environments provide stable microclimates characterized by uniform temperatures, constant humidity, and low light levels. In such sites, extremely low light irradiance can support the growth of subaerial biofilms (SABs) dominated by unique photosynthetic communities of cyanobacteria accompanied by chlorophytes, heterotrophic
