Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of the nematode-trapping fungus Drechslerella dactyloides

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2023
The complete mitochondrial genome of Drechslerella dactyloides was characterized in this study. This mitogenome is a closed circular molecule of 246860 bp in length with a GC content of 26.16%, including 87 predicted protein-coding genes, 29 transfer RNA

Antimicrobial Surfaces for Reusable Food Packaging: A Comprehensive Review of Functionality and Suitability

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT With the recent introduction of the European Union's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) in February 2025, reusable plastic packaging schemes have gained increasing attention as a more circular and sustainable alternative to single‐use plastics (SUPs).

Diversity of the Microbiomes in the Larval and Adult Stages of the European Cherry Fruit Fly (Rhagoletis cerasi) and Identification of Potential Biocontrol Candidate Taxa

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 9, Page 999-1010, September 2026.
First comprehensive characterization of the R. cerasi microbiome is reported. Stage‐specific variations in microbial composition are documented. Multiple bacterial entomopathogen taxa are identified as potential biocontrol candidates for R. cerasi.

Effects of sampling on the elevational distribution of nematode-trapping fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Abstract Background Modelling species richness across an elevation gradient has long attracted attention, and at same time places some significant obstacles to research. Many interpretations of patterns and corresponding mechanisms for species distributions are made without consideration of multiple confounding factors.

Phylogeny Drives Carrion Consumption by Vertebrate Scavengers Towards Distantly Related Species

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 9, September 2026.
Carrion is a highly nutritious resource that plays a key role in ecosystem functioning, but may pose pathogen risks, particularly between phylogenetically close carcass‐scavenger pairs. Using camera traps, we assessed how phylogenetic distance influenced scavenging in a Mediterranean wetland.

Evolutionary Genomics of Nematode-Trapping Fungi

open access: yes, 2013
Nematode-trapping fungi are ubiquitous, soil-living organisms with the ability to infect and kill nematodes. These fungi have developed specialized infection structures for the capture of nematodes.

A tomato MIK2‐clade receptor is involved in the perception of a Fusarium‐derived elicitor

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 5, Page 2777-2798, September 2026.
Fusarium elicitor responsivness and MIK2‐clade proteins are conserved across plant families. Summary Plants continuously monitor their environment to adapt to threats affecting health and fitness. Cell‐surface receptors detect conserved microbe‐associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) or endogenous immunogenic signals to activate signaling pathways that ...

Detecting Chestnut Ink Diseases Through the Dog's Sense of Smell: From Laboratory to Forest

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Canine olfactory abilities were used to distinguish chestnut ink disease caused by Phytophthora spp. A trained detection dog, conditioned with polymer tubes carrying pathogen‐derived volatile organic compounds (VOCs), first detected Phytophthora‐infected roots under controlled conditions and then in chestnut orchards, demonstrating a non‐invasive ...

Continuous Monoculture Shapes Root and Rhizosphere Fungal Communities of Corn and Soybean in Soybean Cyst Nematode-Infested Soil

open access: yesPhytobiomes Journal, 2019
The rhizosphere effect shapes microbial communities around and within plant roots and may lead to the enrichment of fungi involved in both positive and negative plant-soil feedbacks.

Establishment Limitations of Sensitive Target Species Potentilla alba L. in Grasslands Restored on Arable Land

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 10053-10062, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT Species in grasslands restored from former arable land have multiple obstacles when establishing. Understanding whether these limitations stem from soil chemical or microbial differences could help to create suitable environments for specific target and other species with similar requirements.
