An Improved Sporulation Method for Producing Asexual Zoospores of Pythium aphanidermatum on Culture Medium [PDF]
MycobiologyAn improved sporulation method for Pythium aphanidermatum on 10% V8-juice agar was developed to generate substantial quantities of zoospores. We conducted experiments using a 4 × 4 factorial design to evaluate the effects of temperature (20, 25, 30, and ...

Membrane proteome analysis identifies key components of sensing in Phytophthora parasitica zoospores [PDF]
Scientific ReportsPhytophthora plant pathogens rely on motile biflagellated zoospores to efficiently locate and colonise host tissues. While rhizospheric signals guiding zoospore movement toward roots are known, the protein composition of membranes mediating these ...

Super-resolution imaging of native fluorescent photoreceptors in chytrid fungal eyes [PDF]
The EMBO JournalPhotoorientation in motile fungal zoospores is mediated by rhodopsin guanylyl cyclases (RGCs). In certain chytrids, these photoreceptors form heterodimers consisting of a visible-light-absorbing RGC paired with neorhodopsin (NeoR), a rhodopsin ...
