Susceptibility of zygomycetes to human serum
Medical Mycology, 1981Seven members of the class Zygomycetes were tested for serum susceptibility. Five of the isolates were inhibited to different degrees by pooled fresh human serum. Heating the serum at 56 degrees C for 30 min to inactivate complement did not abolish the inhibitory activity in the serum.

PHOTOTROPISM OF COPROPHILOUS ZYGOMYCETES
Annual Review of Biophysics and Bioengineering, 1977Biological cells sense and react to their environment. This is as true for a neuron in the brain as for a bacterium in the intestine or a coprophilous Zygomycete on dung. To understand these cells on a molecular level scientists have choosen particu lar systems for extensive study. Such a system must respond to measurable stimuli, give clear responses,

Synthesis of neutral glycosphingolipids from Zygomycetes
Carbohydrate Research, 2008Novel neutral glycosphingolipids (NGSLs) containing Gal-alpha1-->6Gal, previously found in the Zygomycetes species Mucor hiemalis, were synthesized. The structures of these compounds are different from those of other fungal GSLs, and they are expected to be involved in host-parasite interactions.

Mycoparasitism within the Zygomycetes
Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 1985The Zygomycetes includes a number of mycoparasitic genera, which differ in their strategies of parasitism. Piptocephalis, Dispira, Dimargaris and Tieghemiomyces are typical biotrophs, and display many features associated with this mode of infection, such as the formation of haustoria.

Carotene derivatives in sexual communication of zygomycete fungi
Phytochemistry, 2009Recognition between mating partners, early sexual morphogenesis and development are regulated by a family of beta-carotene derived signal compounds, the trisporoids, in zygomycete fungi. Mating type-specific precursors are released from the hyphae and exert their physiological effects upon compatible mating partners. In a cooperative synthesis pathway,

Genetic Transformation of Zygomycetes Fungi
2010Zygomycetes fungi, especially members of the order Mucorales and Mortierellales are important from various biological, biotechnological and medical aspects. They are used as model organisms to answer biological questions in the fields of sexual differentiation (Sutter, 1975; Kuzina and Cerda- Olmedo, 2006; Idnurm et al., 2008), morphological dimorphism

Zygomycetes in food fermentations
Mycologist, 1991Zygomycetes are an important group of fungi used in industrial fermentation. Almost a hundred years ago they were known to produce soybean-based foods, amylases and ethanol. In more recent times they were discovered to bring about a variety of chemical transformations in the production of steroids and microbial rennin.

The ribosomal DNA of the Zygomycete Mucor miehei
Current Genetics, 2000The ribosomal DNA-from the Zygomycete Mucor miehei has been characterised. The complete rDNA unit was cloned by heterologous PCR using primers whose sequence matched conserved regions of the rDNA from related fungal species. The sequence of the overlapping PCR products revealed the existence of a repeated unit of 9574 bp.

Hyphal tip cytoplasmic organization in four zygomycetous fungi
Mycologia, 2016We have examined the hyphal tip structure in four zygomycetous fungi: Mortierella verticillata (Mortierellales), Coemansia reversa (Kickxellales), Mucor indicus and Gilbertella persicaria (Mucorales) using both light and transmission electron microscopy.
