Saprotrophic Capabilities of Neurospora crassa on Charred Plant Biomass. [PDF]
Despite growing on charred biomass in nature, Neurospora crassa cannot degrade charred wood or grass better than non‐fire‐associated decomposer fungi (Gloeophyllum trabeum, Trametes versicolor). It likely proliferates on charred biomass by rapidly colonising heat‐sterilised substrates after heat‐ or smoke‐induced spore germination and then consuming ...

Cellulase of Neurospora crassa [PDF]
Mycelia and ungerminated conidia of Neurospora crassa were found to secrete extracellular endocellulase (EC 3.2.1.4). A simple induction system of potassium phosphate buffer (ph 6.0) plus inducer relied on the internal metabolic reserves of conicia or mycelia to provide energy and substrates for protein synthesis.

A relationship between carotenoid accumulation and the distribution of species of the fungus Neurospora in Spain. [PDF]
The ascomycete fungus Neurospora is present in many parts of the world, in particular in tropical and subtropical areas, where it is found growing on recently burned vegetation. We have sampled the Neurospora population across Spain.

Secret lifestyles of Neurospora crassa [PDF]
AbstractNeurospora crassa has a long history as an excellent model for genetic, cellular and biochemical research. Although this fungus is known as a saprotroph, it normally appears on burned vegetations or trees after forest fires. However, due to a lack of experimental evidence, the nature of its association with living plants remains enigmatic. Here

Neurospora from natural populations: Population genomics insights into the Life history of a model microbial Eukaryote [PDF]
The ascomycete filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa played a historic role in experimental biology and became a model system for genetic research. Stimulated by a systematic effort to collect wild strains initiated by Stanford geneticist David Perkins ...

Incorporation in vivo of 14C-Labelled Amino Acids into the Proteins of Mitochondrial Ribosomes from Neurospora crassa Sensitive to Cycloheximide and Insensitive to Chloramphenicol [PDF]
Radioactive amino acids were incorporated in vivo into Neurospora crassa cells, and the mitochondrial ribosomes were isolated. The incorporation of radioactivity into the proteins of these ribosomes was inhibited by cycloheximide, but not by ...

Polyamine transport in Neurospora crassa [PDF]
Polyamine transport in Neurospora crassa is concentrative and energy dependent in a dilute buffer. The saturable systems governing the uptake of putrescine (Km = 0.6 mM), spermidine (Km = ca. 0.24 mM), and spermine (Km = 0.07 mM) share components, as indicated by mutual inhibition among the polyamines.
