The nematophagous fungus Verticillium chlamydosporium: aspects of pathogenicity [PDF]
Verticillium chlamydosporium is a fungal pathogen of eggs and females of plantparasitic nematodes. The fungus produced an alkaline serine protease in submerged culture. This enzyme, VCPI, was characterized as a class II subtilisin, based on amino acid sequenceh omology. Several of its characteristics, e.g.

Destruction of Anoplocephala perfoliata Eggs by the Nematophagous Fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia
Abstract The in vitro effect of an isolate of the nematophagous fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia (VC1) on the eggs of Anoplocephala perfoliata was evaluated. The eggs were morphologically analyzed for their integrity using light microscopy (10× objectives), plated on 9.0-cm diameter petri dishes containing 2% WA culture medium with and without ...

Molecular characterization of four novel mycoviruses in entomopathogenic and nematophagous fungi [PDF]
Background Research on fungal viruses has predominantly focused on phytopathogenic fungi, with some studies elucidating their roles in modulating fungal virulence and influencing plant-fungus interactions.

Soil pH and the Activity of a Pelletized Nematophagous Fungus [PDF]
When formulated as assimilative hyphae in alginate pellets, the nematophagous fungus Hirsutella rhossiliensis was more active (i.e., parasitized more assay nematodes) in an acidic vineyard soil than in a neutral vineyard soil. To determine whether soil pH explained the difference, fungus activity was measured in soil from the neutral site that had been

Host deception: predaceous fungus, Esteya vermicola, entices pine wood nematode by mimicking the scent of pine tree for nutrient. [PDF]
A nematophagous fungus, Esteya vermicola, is recorded as the first endoparasitic fungus of pine wood nematode (PWN), Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, in last century. E.
