Proteomic insights into nematode-trapping fungi Arthrobotrys oligospora after their response to chitin [PDF]
Journal of Veterinary ResearchNematode-trapping fungi (NTFs) can produce various chitinases to degrade nematode body wall and eggshell chitin during predation. However, the regulatory mechanisms of their expression of chitinases still remain unclear.

Nematode-Trapping Fungi. [PDF]
Microbiol Spectr, 2017 ABSTRACT Nematode-trapping fungi are a unique and intriguing group of carnivorous microorganisms that can trap and digest nematodes by means of specialized trapping structures. They can develop diverse trapping devices, such as adhesive hyphae, adhesive knobs, adhesive networks, constricting rings, and nonconstricting rings. Nematode-trapping
