Infection of plant-parasitic nematodes by nematophagous fungi - a review of the application of molecular biology to understand infection processes and to improve biological control

open access: yes, 2004
Environmental concerns over conventional nematicides have led to increasing interest in the use of biological control agents to control plant-parasitic nematodes. The development of nematophagous fungi as biological control agents has revealed a need for

Chrysoviruses Inhabited Symbiotic Fungi of Lichens

open access: yes, 2019
A lichen body is formed most often from green alga cells trapped in a net of ascomycetous fungi and accompanied by endolichenic or parasitic fungi, other algae, and symbiotic or free-living bacteria.

Functional diversity in nutrient acquisition by ectomycorrhizal fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Nutrient uptake by boreal forest trees depends upon the symbiotic ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi that colonise more than 95% of the fine roots. In these ecosystems, nitrogen (N) is the most important growth-limiting nutrient for plants, followed by ...

Application of fungi as biological control strategies for nematode management in horticultural crops

open access: yesPhytopathology Research
Plant-parasitic nematodes are a major problem for horticultural production, causing significant economic losses. Chemical nematicides are a common nematode control strategy but can negatively impact the environment and human health.

Endophytic fungi

open access: yes, 2011
Endophytic fungi as weIl as plant-parasitic nematodes probably coevolved with all plant life on earth including cultivated crop plants. While endophytic fungi often form mutualisitc associations to the benefit of the plant, plant-parasitic nematodes can ...

In Vitro Ovicidal Activity of Nematophagous Fungus Paecilomyces lilacinus on the Eggs of Parasitic Helminths

open access: yesJournal of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 2016
Introduction: The nematophagus fungi have been suggested as an alternative way to eliminate the zoonotic helminths eggs from the environment. In the present study, we evaluated the ovicidal activity of a fungus, Paecilomyces lilacinus, recovered from a ...

Parasitic crustaceans in fishes from some Philippine Lakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Parasitic crustaceans are among the most harmful parasites of fishes. Certain species cause disease outbreaks and mortalities in aquaculture, facilities, and sometimes in natural systems, resulting in serious economic losses.
