Protein Composition of Infectious Spores Reveals Novel Sexual Development and Germination Factors in Cryptococcus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2015
Spores are an essential cell type required for long-term survival across diverse organisms in the tree of life and are a hallmark of fungal reproduction, persistence, and dispersal.

Spore Dispersal in the Mucorales [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1942
THE problem of spore dispersal presented in my last communication1 is now partially solved, as a result of spore-blowing experiments and the observation of cultures grown in cemented glass cells with coverslip surfaces.

Fungal spore transport by omnivorous mycophagous slug in temperate forest

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Slugs are important consumers of fungal fruiting bodies and expected to carry their spores. In this study, we examined whether slugs (Meghimatium fruhstorferi) can act as effective dispersers of spores of basidiomycetes.

Weather Conditions Associated with the Release and Dispersal of Zymoseptoria tritici Spores in the Argentine Pampas Region

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy, 2017
The abundance of Zymoseptoria tritici ascospores and conidia in a field was examined throughout two one-year periods (1998-1999 and 1999-2000) establishing the relationship between spore release and weather variables. Radiation, temperature, intensity of

Aspects of Spore Dispersal in Selaginella

open access: yesAmerican Fern Journal, 1997
The evolution of heterospory changed the conditions for spore dispersal. Assuming wind as the dispersal agent, microspores will be dispersed to greater distances than megaspores. We investigated aspects of spore size and sculpture as well as spore dispersal under calm con- ditions and under the effect of artificial wind of some Selaginella species.

Recent Advances in Collective Behaviors of Micro/Nanomotor Swarms

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review describes the driving forces behind collective motion, explores the self‐organization of micro/nano swarms across zero‐dimensional (0D), one‐dimensional (1D), two‐dimensional (2D), and three‐dimensional (3D) spaces, and highlights their potential in drug delivery, environmental monitoring, and smart devices.

Site-specific factors influencing Hymenoscyphus fraxineus spore dispersal: the role of understorey vegetation and slope steepness in ash dieback spread

open access: yesNotulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca
Ash dieback (ADB), caused by Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, is a severe threat to Fraxinus excelsior populations across Europe, with spore dispersal playing a critical role in disease progression. While broad-scale environmental drivers of spore dispersal are

Alternaria and Fusarium Fungi: Differences in Distribution and Spore Deposition in a Topographically Heterogeneous Wheat Field

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2018
Fusarium spp. and Alternaria spp., two genera of filamentous fungi, are common colonizers of the wheat phyllosphere. Both can be pathogenic and produce mycotoxins that are harmful to consumers.
