Zoospore diversity and sexual reproduction in the lichen‐forming genus Trebouxia: From neglected evidence to new facts [PDF]
Plant Biology, Volume 27, Issue 6, Page 1137-1149, October 2025.This study clarifies the role of flagellate cells in four Trebouxia species. Using innovative techniques, we could distinguish between zoospores and gametes, providing the first detailed evidence of sex. Abstract Trebouxia is one of the most frequent genera of green microalgae that occur as photobionts in lichens.

Insights into the Utility of the Focal Adhesion Scaffolding Proteins in the Anaerobic Fungus Orpinomyces sp. C1A. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Focal adhesions (FAs) are large eukaryotic multiprotein complexes that are present in all metazoan cells and function as stable sites of tight adhesion between the extracellular matrix (ECM) and the cell's cytoskeleton.

Protein Kinase C Is Likely to be Involved in Zoosporogenesis and Maintenance of Flagellar Motility in the Peronosporomycete Zoospores [PDF]
Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2011 The motility of zoospores is critical in the disease cycles of Peronosporomycetes that cause devastating diseases in plants, fishes, vertebrates, and microbes.

The Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase PlMAPK2 Is Involved in Zoosporogenesis and Pathogenicity of Peronophythoralitchii. [PDF]
Int J Mol Sci, 2021 As an evolutionarily conserved pathway, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades function as the key signal transducers that convey information by protein phosphorylation. Here we identified PlMAPK2 as one of 14 predicted MAPKs encoding genes in the plant pathogenic oomycete Peronophythora litchii.

Ultrastructure of Zoosporogenesis in Allomyces macrogynus [PDF]
Journal of General Microbiology, 1974 The formation of zoospores in the aquatic Phycomycete, Allomyces macrogynus, has been studied with the electron microscope. Flagellum formation, zoospore-membrane formation and nuclear-cap formation comprise the sequence of major events that occur within a zoosporangium upon the addition of water to a culture of the organism growing on an agar surface.

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 16, Issue 12, Page 2313-2325, December 2023., 2023 The present work expands our knowledge about the role that DAPG‐producing Pseudomonas play as natural bioherbicides to ward off parasitic plant infections, which are responsible for important yield losses in crops. Abstract Parasitic weeds such as broomrapes (Phelipanche ramosa and Orobanche cumana) cause severe damage to crops and their development ...

Influence of temperature on in vitro zoosporogenesis of Pythium insidiosum [PDF]
Medical Mycology, 2017 This study verified the influence of different temperatures on P. insidiosum in vitro zoosporogenesis. P. insidiosum isolates (n = 26) were submitted to zoosporogenesis and incubated at 5°C, 15°C, 20°C and 37°C (1st stage). Grass fragments were evaluated under optical microscopy at 4, 8, and 24 hours of incubation.

The underexplored potential of green macroalgae in aquaculture
Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 5-26, January 2022., 2022 Abstract Green macroalgae (Chlorophyta) currently represent a residual fraction (<1%) of global seaweed biomass production landings. In turn, red (Rhodophyta) and brown (Ochrophyta) macroalgae dominate the remaining percentage of aquaculture production, exceeding 32 million tonnes per annum.

New Phytologist, Volume 226, Issue 5, Page 1445-1460, June 2020., 2020 Summary Kelps are key primary producers of cold and temperate marine coastal ecosystems and exhibit systemic defences against pathogens. Yet, the cellular mechanisms underpinning their immunity remain to be elucidated. We investigated the time course of infection of the kelp Macrocystis pyrifera by the oomycete Anisolpidium ectocarpii using TEM, in ...

Plant Protection Science, 2016 The effects of water and acetone extracts from 100 medicinal plants growing in Bangladesh, along with a selective inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC), chelerythrine chloride, were tested on zoosporogenesis (release of zoospores from the sporangia) and ...
