Response of Fecal Bacteria and Fungi to Tannin‐Rich Diets in Sika Deer (Cervus nippon): Evidence from Both Feeding Experiments and Field Investigations

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Feeding with tannin‐rich diets altered the fecal microbial composition and increased the relative abundance of tannin‐degrading microbes. We hypothesize that fecal bacteria and fungi may play important roles in helping herbivores adapt to tannin‐rich diets but respond to different tannin concentrations varies.

Trichoderma gets by with a little help from Streptomyces: fungal–bacterial symbiosis in plant growth promotion [PDF]

Plant–microbe interactions are crucial for plant health and agricultural sustainability. Trichoderma species are common soil and root fungi that have been widely studied due to their capacity to produce antibiotics, parasitize other fungi, and compete ...

EMITS: Expectation–maximization abundance estimation for fungal ITS communities from long‐read sequencing

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract As long‐read amplicon sequencing becomes routine for fungal metabarcoding, species‐level abundance estimation from ITS amplicons remains limited by naive best‐hit classification. Assigning each read to its single highest‐scoring reference misattributes reads among closely related species that share similar ITS sequences, and divides the reads ...

Functional and transcriptomic analyses in Neurospora crassa reveal a crucial role for the N‐glycoprotein deglycosylation process in fungal homeostasis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In Neurospora crassa, a cytosolic GH18 endo‐β‐n‐acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) functions as an active deglycosylating enzyme. Deletion of this severely alters tolerance to multiple stress conditions and causes extensive transcriptomic reprogramming, including upregulation of a GH20 exo‐β‐n‐acetylhexosaminidase under ER stress, indicating that N. crassa

Trichoderma atroviride isolates improve plant growth of Miscanthus x giganteus

, 2015
Japanese tall grass (Miscanthus x giganteus) is a perennial sterile hybrid vegetatively propagated rhizomatous grass. This grass is being assessed for its potential use as a shelterbelt on irrigated dairy farms in New Zealand.

Volatile organic compounds orchestrating microbiome‐mediated crop resilience: Prospects and challenges for sustainable agriculture

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Herbivory triggers the production of green leaf volatiles, and dense planting results in induces increased concentration of linalool emission in maize canopies. These volatiles activate plant‐soil feedback that enriches beneficial rhizosphere bacteria, enhancing resistance, though sometimes at a growth cost, thereby offering new avenues for sustainable

Engineered Yarrowia lipolytica inducing gene silencing confers control ability against gray mold in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Engineered the plant‐colonizing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce and deliver double‐stranded RNAs targeting key genes of the gray mold fungus Botrytis cinerea produced a ‘living factory’ that continuously synthesizes and releases gene‐silencing molecules on plant surfaces, effectively suppressing the pathogen.

Development and validation of a species-specific marker for Trichoderma atroviride

, 2012
Biocontrol agents can use a range of strategies to control pathogens, such as plant growth promotion, induced resistance, mycoparasitism, antibiosis and competition.

Dormancy type, seed traits, and species identity shape seed‐associated fungal community composition in tropical pioneer trees

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Dormancy type, as well as chemical and physical seed traits, explain variation in seed fungal community composition. Summary Seed germination is regulated in many plants by seed dormancy, while postdispersal survival is often determined by soilborne fungi that infect seeds.

Biocontrol potentials of Trichoderma species in the control of Fusarium wilt in five tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) varieties cultivated under greenhouse conditions in Southwest Nigeria

The Proceedings of the Nigerian Academy of Science
Important pathogenic fungi such as Fusarium species are mostly associated with the wilting of tomato plant leaves and constitute a serious limiting factor for tomato production.
