Biosolubilization of Indonesia’s Subbituminous Coal Using Neurospora intermedia
AbstractRecognizing its high volatile matter content, liquefaction to convert subbituminous coal with relatively low calorific value into liquid fuel by thermal or biological process has been subjected to extensive research. The former has been implemented commercially whereas the latter challenges for further studies.

Plasmid suppressors active in the sexual cycle of Neurospora intermedia. [PDF]
Abstract We have discovered that, in certain crosses of natural isolates of Neurospora intermedia, linear and circular mitochondrial plasmids of the maternal parent are not transmitted to the progeny. This contrasts with the maternal transmission of organellar genetic elements generally observed in crosses between laboratory strains and ...

Agricultural wastes for brine shrimp Artemia production: A review
Abstract An increasing global population has meant aquaculture, one of the fastest growing food industry sectors, faces significant sustainability challenges as it tries to address the rising global protein demand. In many sectors, production is underpinned by fishmeal as dietary ingredient, but this is a finite resource with competing users from the ...

Graphical Abstract: Abstract The incidence of aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, and patulin in fruits and processed fruit products has been ever more challenging and gained additional focus on ecofriendly mitigation strategies. The onset of these toxins is due to several factors involving insect attacks, agricultural practices, and climate change.

Abstract BACKGROUND Vegetable oil is more difficult for microorganisms to degrade compared with carbohydrates and protein. Oil‐rich waste creates serious environmental and health concerns if it remains untreated. The aim of the work reported here was to evaluate the effects on the nutritional composition of filamentous fungal biomass by growing it in ...

Green Nanotechnology: Recent Research on Bioresource‐Based Nanoparticle Synthesis and Applications
In the last decades, the idea of green nanotechnology has been expanding, and researchers are developing greener and more sustainable techniques for synthesizing nanoparticles (NPs). The major objectives are to fabricate NPs using simple, sustainable, and cost‐effective procedures while avoiding the use of hazardous materials that are usually utilized ...

Evolutionary robustness of killer meiotic drives
Abstract A meiotic driver is a selfish genetic element that interferes with the process of meiosis to promote its own transmission. The most common mechanism of interference is gamete killing, where the meiotic driver kills gametes that do not contain it.

Abstract Microbial‐assisted biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has been developed rapidly in recent years, but their mechanism of synthesis and production are still unknown. This study investigated the roles of nitrate reductase produced by the fungus Trichoderma asperellum in the synthesis of AgNPs.

Genetic architecture of a reinforced, postmating, reproductive isolation barrier between Neurospora species indicates evolution via natural selection. [PDF]
A role for natural selection in reinforcing premating barriers is recognized, but selection for reinforcement of postmating barriers remains controversial.
