Ultrastructure of Nematode-Trapping Fungi [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1972
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 ...

Collagenase Production by Nematode-Trapping Fungi [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1980
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 ...

High Predatory Capacity of a Novel Arthrobotrys oligospora Variety on the Ovine Gastrointestinal Nematode Haemonchus contortus (Rhabditomorpha: Trichostrongylidae)

Pathogens, 2021
With the worldwide development of anthelmintic resistance, new alternative approaches for controlling gastrointestinal nematodes in sheep are urgently required. In this work, we identified and characterized native nematode-trapping fungi.

Independence Effects of Heat and Ash on Forest Soil Nematode-Trapping Fungi Communities

Fire, 2023
Heat input and ash residues are main components of vegetation fire disturbances. Understanding the distinct impacts of heat and ash on soil microorganisms is crucial to comprehend and predict the induced changes in soil ecosystem composition and dynamics

Intercellular communication is required for trap formation in the nematode-trapping fungus Duddingtonia flagrans. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2019
Nematode-trapping fungi (NTF) are a large and diverse group of fungi, which may switch from a saprotrophic to a predatory lifestyle if nematodes are present.

Identification of Three Novel Conidiogenesis-Related Genes in the Nematode-Trapping Fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora

Pathogens, 2022
For filamentous fungi, conidiogenesis is the most common reproductive strategy for environmental dispersal, invasion, and proliferation. Understanding the molecular mechanisms controlling conidiation and increasing conidium yield may provide promising ...

Pleiotropic roles of Ras GTPases in the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora identified through multi-omics analyses

iScience, 2021
Summary: The nematode-trapping fungi are ideal agents for controlling pathogenic nematodes. Arthrobotrys oligospora is a representative species of the same, producing traps for nematode predation. Here, three orthologous Ras GTPases (Ras2, Ras3, and Rheb)

AoPEX1 and AoPEX6 Are Required for Mycelial Growth, Conidiation, Stress Response, Fatty Acid Utilization, and Trap Formation in Arthrobotrys oligospora

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Arthrobotrys oligospora (A. oligospora) is a typical nematode-trapping (NT) fungus that can capture nematodes by producing adhesive networks. Peroxisomes are single membrane-bound organelles that perform multiple physiological functions in filamentous ...

Interspecific and host-related gene expression patterns in nematode-trapping fungi. [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2014
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. To provide insights into the genetic basis for this variation, we compared the transcriptome expressed by three species of nematode ...

AMPK Is Involved in Regulating the Utilization of Carbon Sources, Conidiation, Pathogenicity, and Stress Response of the Nematode-Trapping Fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a heterotrimeric complex, can sense energy and nutritional status in eukaryotic cells, thereby participating in the regulation of multiple cellular processes.
