Urea regulates soil nematode population by enhancing the nematode-trapping ability of nematode-trapping fungi [PDF]

Scientific Reports
As the most abundant animal in the soil, nematodes are directly or indirectly involved in almost all soil ecological processes. Studying soil nematode population regulation is essential to understanding soil ecological processes.

Proteomic insights into nematode-trapping fungi Arthrobotrys oligospora after their response to chitin [PDF]

Journal of Veterinary Research
Nematode-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.

A synergistic alliance between nematophagous fungi and organic matter against plant-parasitic nematodes: a systematic review. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
Certain beneficial fungi are widely used to control harmful nematodes in crops, especially when combined with organic matter. Together, they improve soil health, support plant growth, and enhance nutrient cycling. This natural partnership offers a promising, environmentally friendly approach to strengthening sustainable agriculture and reducing ...

Arthrobotrys thaumasia and A. musiformis (Fungi: Orbiliales) as Natural Potential Enemies of Haemonchus contortus (Nematoda: Trichostrongylidae) [PDF]

Pathogens
Haemonchus contortus (Hc) is a parasitic nematode affecting sheep. Arthrobotrys is a group of nematophagous fungi (NF) that capture nematodes with specialized traps. This study evaluated the in vitro predatory ability of Arthrobotrys thaumasia (At) and A.

E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Rsp5 Controls Lifestyle Transition and Pathogenicity in Arthrobotrys oligospora [PDF]

Journal of Fungi
Fungi have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to survive in complex environments. Nematode-trapping fungi (NTF) sense and recognize nematode prey to transition from a saprophytic to predatory lifestyle, rendering them promising biocontrol agents against ...

FlbD: A Regulator of Hyphal Growth, Stress Resistance, Pathogenicity, and Chlamydospore Production in the Nematode-Trapping Fungus Arthrobotrys flagrans [PDF]

Microorganisms
Arthrobotrys flagrans is a typical nematode-trapping fungus that captures nematodes by producing three-dimensional networks. FlbD is a DNA-binding protein containing a Myb domain, which plays a significant role in fungal development.

Phylogeny of nematode-trapping fungi based on 18S rDNA sequences [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1998
The small subunit (SSU) ribosomal DNA (18S rDNA) from 15 species of nematode-trapping fungi and closely related non-parasitic species were sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that species within the genera of Arthrobotrys, Dactylaria, Dactylella ...
