Environmental dependency of ectomycorrhizal fungi as soil organic matter oxidizers
New Phytologist, Volume 244, Issue 6, Page 2536-2547, December 2024.Summary Forest soils play a pivotal role as global carbon (C) sinks, where the dynamics of soil organic matter (SOM) are significantly influenced by ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi. While correlations between ECM fungal community composition and soil C storage have been documented, the underlying mechanisms behind this remain unclear.

A fungal mycelium templates the growth of aragonite needles [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Fungi live within diverse environments and survive well under extreme conditions that are usually beyond the tolerance of most other organisms. In different environments fungi are known to induce precipitation of a wide range of minerals. Various species of fungi have been shown to facilitate calcium carbonate mineralization. Here, inspired by examples

On the health effects of curcumin and its derivatives
Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 12, Issue 11, Page 8623-8650, November 2024.Curcuma longa has therapeutic properties that have gained prodigious consideration from scientists in the medical field—review of the existing clinical and animal studies of curcumin and its by‐products. The biological properties of curcumin, also known as 1,7‐bis (4‐hydroxy‐3‐methoxyphenyl)‐1,6‐heptadiene‐3,5‐dione, or diferuloylmethane, include anti ...

Summoning the wind: Hydrodynamic cooperation of forcibly ejected fungal spores [PDF]
arXiv, 2009 The forcibly launched spores of the crop pathogen \emph{Sclerotinia sclerotiorum} must eject through many centimeters of nearly still air to reach the flowers of the plants that the fungus infects. Because of their microscopic size, individually ejected spores are quickly brought to rest by drag.

arXiv, 2020 A fungal skin is a thin flexible sheet of a living homogeneous mycelium made by a filamentous fungus. The skin could be used in future living architectures of adaptive buildings and as a sensing living skin for soft self-growing/adaptive robots. In experimental laboratory studies we demonstrate that the fungal skin is capable for recognising mechanical

Fruitbody and root data infer different environmental niches for ectomycorrhizal fungi
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 51, Issue 11, Page 2221-2236, November 2024.Abstract Aim We used two fungal data sources for occurrence records (fruitbodies and roots) to (1) test the influence of data source on estimating the environmental niche of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi and (2) compare the differences in estimated niche area and density for ECM fungal species with conspicuous (easily observed, i.e.

A Framework for Individualizing Predictions of Disease Trajectories by Exploiting Multi-Resolution Structure [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 For many complex diseases, there is a wide variety of ways in which an individual can manifest the disease. The challenge of personalized medicine is to develop tools that can accurately predict the trajectory of an individual's disease, which can in turn enable clinicians to optimize treatments.
