The Mitogenomes of Ophiostoma minus and Ophiostoma piliferum and Comparisons With Other Members of the Ophiostomatales [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Fungi assigned to the Ophiostomatales are of economic concern as many are blue-stain fungi and some are plant pathogens. The mitogenomes of two blue-stain fungi, Ophiostoma minus and Ophiostoma piliferum, were sequenced and compared with currently ...

Effect Of Albino Ophiostoma Strains On Eucalyptus Nitens Extractives [PDF]
Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2015 Wood extractives promote pitch formation during pulp and paper manufacturing. To date, this problem has been controlled by extended storage of the chips and/or chemical additives. Biotreatment of the wood prior to pulping provides an alternative that not

The Biological Roles of Class II Hydrophobins at the Cell Wall of Filamentous Ascomycetes. [PDF]
J Basic MicrobiolABSTRACT One of the most elusive aspects of fungal cell wall biology has been dilucidating the specific functions of most cell wall proteins. Class II hydrophobins are small amphipathic proteins produced exclusively by filamentous ascomycetes. A comparative synthesis of their biological functions across species has been lacking for this specific group ...

Dose-response modelling uncovers compound-specific inhibitory effects of host defence volatiles on mountain pine beetle fungal symbionts. [PDF]
Pest Manag SciHost defence volatiles inhibit mountain pine beetle fungal symbionts in a compound‐ and enantiomer‐specific manner, with distinct dose–response profiles that reveal the multitarget chemical defences of beetle–fungi symbiotes. Abstract BACKGROUND The mountain pine beetle relies on symbiotic fungi to overcome host tree defences, yet these fungi must ...

NADPH Dehydrogenase Gene Regulates Energy Distribution and Fatty Acid Metabolism During Fruiting Body Formation in the Filamentous Fungus Podospora anserina. [PDF]
Microb BiotechnolNADPH dehydrogenase gene deletion significantly triggered NADPH/NADP+ increase in mutant strains. NADPH gene deletion promoted Fatty acid biosynthesis and repressed β‐oxidation. NADPH gene deletion decreased oxidative phosphorylation and increased substrate‐level phosphorylation. Mutants exhibited hypersensitivity to oxidative stress, but promoted more

Sequencing and annotation of the Ophiostoma ulmigenome [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2013 Abstract Background The ascomycete fungus Ophiostoma ulmi was responsible for the initial pandemic of the massively destructive Dutch elm disease in Europe and North America in early 1910. Dutch elm disease has ravaged the elm tree population globally and is a major threat to the remaining elm population. O.

The diversity of mtDNA rns introns among strains of Ophiostoma piliferum, Ophiostoma pluriannulatum and related species [PDF]
SpringerPlus, 2016 Based on previous studies, it was suspected that the mitochondrial rns gene within the Ophiostomatales is rich in introns. This study focused on a collection of strains representing Ophiostoma piliferum, Ophiostoma pluriannulatum and related species that cause blue-stain; these fungi colonize the sapwood of trees and impart a dark stain.

Deciphering the molecular components of the quorum sensing system in the fungus Ophiostoma piceae
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 Quorum sensing (QS) is a complex cell-cell communication mechanism that coordinates population-level behaviors in microbes. In eukaryotes, this phenomenon has been extensively described in the dimorphic yeast Candida albicans as its main QS molecule, the

Ophiostomatoid fungi isolated from fallen shoots of Scots pine pruned by Tomicus species in Poland
Acta Mycologica, 2013 Ophiostomatoid fungi are known to be associated with Tomicus spp. on Pinus sylvestris. However, very little is actually known about the fungi present in the pine shoots damaged by these insects. The aim of this study was to survey species of Ophiostoma s.

Acta Agrobotanica, 2013 The pine-infesting weevils are known to be effective vectors of ophiostomatoid fungi. To understand more about fungal virulence of these fungi, inoculation studies were conducted on Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.).
