Summary Chitosan is a partially deacetylated linear polysaccharide composed of β‐1,4‐linked units of d‐glucosamine and N‐acetyl glucosamine. As well as a structural component of fungal cell walls, chitosan is a potent antifungal agent. However, the mode of action of chitosan is poorly understood.

Fungal Formulation with the Nematophagous Fungus Pochonia Chlamydosporia
Healthy foods with high nutritional value and products free of chemical residues present a promising market. This has increased the challenges of worm control. Helminths are a production concern as they affect the general health, welfare and performance of the animals.

Development of a transformation system for the nematophagous fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia
The nematophagous fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia is a potential biocontrol agent against root knot and cyst nematodes. Genetic transformation of the fungus to introduce visual marker genes, novel traits, or changes in expression levels of endogenous genes, would greatly enhance understanding of its behaviour on nematode-infested roots and of its ...

Production of extracellular enzymes by different isolates of Pochonia chlamydosporia
For the first time, the specific activities of chitinases, esterases, lipases and a serine protease (VCP1) produced by different isolates of the nematophagous fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia were quantified and compared. The isolates were grown for different time periods in a minimal liquid medium or media supplemented with 1 % chitin, 0.2 % gelatin or ...

Abstract Biological control is a promising approach to reduce plant diseases caused by nematodes to ensure high productivity in agricultural production. Large‐scale analyses of genetic variation in fungal species used for biocontrol can generate knowledge regarding interaction mechanisms that can improve efficacy of biocontrol applications.

Recent Advances in Synthetic Application and Engineering of Halogenases
Biocatalysis: Halogenases catalyze halogenation of arenes with high regioselectivity under ambient conditions. Still, enzymatic halogenation is considered inefficient, due to insufficient productivity and a limited number of applications reported until now.
