Two strains Neocosmospora stercicola (Sordariomycetes, Nectriaceae) with high nematicidal activity, isolated from the cysts of Globodera sp. (Heteroderidae) in China [PDF]
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) are significant pests that result in considerable economic losses in global crop production. Due to the high toxicity of chemical nematicides, there is a need to develop new strategies for nematode control.

We explored fungal compositions, especially pertaining to allergenic fungi, in Bangkok’s Sukhumvit (MRTSKV) subway station with comparison to those of Beijing’s Dongzhimen station as well as stations in five other cities. Short‐term and long‐term temporal dynamics, as well as environmental influences on MRT‐SKV mycobiome, were assessed.

Biocontrol of Root-Knot Nematodes via siRNA-Loaded Extracellular Vesicles From a Nematophagous Fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora. [PDF]
Extracellular vesicles from a nematode‐trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora can serve as effective siRNA delivery vehicles for the control of root‐knot nematodes. ABSTRACT Root‐knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) represent a major threat to global crop production, and current chemical nematicides pose serious environmental and health risks.

Reniform nematode impact on cotton growth and management strategies: A review
Abstract Rotylenchulus reniformis Linford and Oliveira (reniform nematode) infestation has been a concerning issue in the Cotton Belt region of the United States for the past decade. Reniform nematode damage is more evident on cotton compared to other row crops in US Mid‐South because they share common edaphic conditions to sustain and develop.

Effect of Nematode Population Densities on Trapping Activity of Nematophagous Fungus Arthrobotrys Dactyloides on Meloidogyne Javanica [PDF]
Trapping activities of some nematophagous fungi were suggested to be related to the population density of nematodes. This study determined the trapping activity of Arthrobotrys dactyloides due to the effects of (i) different populations of Meloidogyne ...

Fungal parasitism of the cysts and eggs of the Globodera rostochiensis [PDF]
A survey of Globodera rostochiensis infested field in Velingrad region (South-West Bulgaria) revealed the spread of a black egg disease in the old cysts. The fungus mycelium infected the embryos within the egg shell.

Insights into Adaptations to a Near- Obligate Nematode Endoparasitic Lifestyle from the Finished Genome of Drechmeria coniospora [PDF]
Nematophagous fungi employ three distinct predatory strategies: nematode trapping, parasitism of females and eggs, and endoparasitism. While endoparasites play key roles in controlling nematode populations in nature, their application for integrated pest
