In vitro tests were carried out to verify the activity of 26 Brazilian isolates of predatory fungi of the genus Arthrobotrys on a free-living nematode (Panagrellus sp.) and on infective larvae of Cooperia punctata, a parasitic gastrointestinal nematode ...

Interactions between mycophagous nematodes, mycorrhizal and other soil fungi [PDF]
The hypothesis that mycophagous nematodes feed on the mycelia of VAM fungi and consequently reduce the spread of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) infection in plant roots and the growth response of plants to this infection was investigated in ...

Nematode-Trapping Fungi. [PDF]
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

Cell fusion-related proteins AoHam4, AoHam8 and AoPP2A regulate hyphal fusion, conidiation, trap morphogenesis, and secondary metabolism in Arthrobotrys oligospora [PDF]
The diverse mycelial networks of fungi are generated through polar growth, cell division, and cell fusion. Most of the genes are well characterized as crucial for cellular communication and fusion processes in filamentous fungi, but their functions and ...

Interspecific and host-related gene expression patterns in nematode-trapping fungi. [PDF]
Nematode-trapping fungi are soil-living fungi that capture and kill nematodes using special hyphal structures called traps. They display a large diversity of trapping mechanisms and differ in their host preferences.

Ultrastructure of Nematode-Trapping Fungi [PDF]
Capture cells differ ultrastructurally from vegetative cells in the nematode-trapping fungi, Dactylella drechslerii, Monacrosporium rutgeriensis and Arthrobotrys dactyloides , which capture prey by means of adhesive knobs, adhesive hyphal networks, and constricting rings, respectively ...

In higher fungi, lysine is biosynthesized via the α-aminoadipate (AAA) pathway, which differs from plants, bacteria, and lower fungi. The differences offer a unique opportunity to develop a molecular regulatory strategy for the biological control of ...

Collagenase Production by Nematode-Trapping Fungi [PDF]
A number of species of nematode-trapping fungi, which capture and digest nematodes having keratin and collagen in their cuticles, were tested for the ability to produce extracellular collagenase and keratinase. Collagenase, which is active on ichthyocol, earthworm collagen, and procollagen from chicken embryo fibroblasts, was found in the ...
