Field application of fungal biocontrol agents in strawberry crops results in a significant decline of T. harzianum populations and minimal effects on native mycobiota.
Twenty-five culturable root-associated fungi, including classical ectomycorrhizal taxa and non-traditional fungi, were identified in Pinus massoniana from bauxite mine restoration areas.
Silencing SsUBA52 in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum increases pathogenicity and alters development, with silenced strains showing more compound appressoria and higher infection capability.
Aflatoxin biosynthetic gene profiles in Aspergillus flavus from Bangladesh show high genetic diversity with variable aflatoxin gene detection across maize and chili populations.
Natural populations of Hypsizygus marmoreus in Japan exhibit diverse incompatibility factors with significant regional differences, especially for B loci.
P. agathidicida exhibits a conserved infection-associated gene expression program across its gymnosperm host A. australis and the angiosperm model N. benthamiana, with 1129 core genes upregulated in both.
- Open access
Transcriptional responses differ significantly between MAT1-1 and MAT1-2 strains of Morchella sextelata during conidiation, with the MAT1-2 strain showing greater dynamism.
Dual-marker ITS sequencing reveals distinct fungal communities and clinically relevant genera in poultry farm environments, with ITS1 showing higher richness than ITS2.
- Open access
Deletion of FsbrlA in Fusarium solani results in a 93.9% reduction in spore production and a 96.4% decrease in spore germination rate, impairing sporulation.
Land use significantly influences aquatic conidial fungal community composition, with higher diversity and occurrence in forested areas compared to rural and urban zones.
- Open access
Developmental stage and wounding trigger distinct volatile organic compound emission patterns in Pleurotus cornucopiae, with sesquiterpenes accumulating during late stages and C8 VOCs during early stages.
- Open access
Diversity of eight Diaporthe species, including four new host species, was identified in kiwifruit decay in China, with D. eres being the most abundant at 58.9%.
Fungal endophyte Epichloë poae shows a decrease in mycelium growth rate with host plant age and successive generations in vitro.
- Open access
An efficient PEG-mediated protoplast transformation system for Mycena purpureofusca was established, achieving a transformation frequency of 4.3% with stable hygromycin-resistant isolates.
Reduced expression of the AP-1β subunit in Botrytis cinerea causes severe defects in cell wall integrity, enzyme secretion, and pathogenicity.
- Open access
A new Cryphonectria species, Cry. eucalypticola, was discovered on Eucalyptus in North Sumatra and is only mildly pathogenic.
- Open access
Elemental and isotopic compositions of Cu, Zn, and Cd in Imleria badia mushrooms are more species-dependent than site-dependent, with site-dependent Cd concentrations observed only for Cd.
Ganoderiol C is identified as a chemometric marker metabolite for subterranean endophytes of Thymus vulgaris, with strong in silico binding to NF-κB1 and GLRA1.
Deletion of amyR in Aspergillus niger reduces amylolytic activity by repressing key enzyme genes and enhances cellulose utilization and growth on cellulose media.

Constitutive up-regulation of 634 genes linked to redox, cell wall, and oxidoreductase functions underpins resistance in Flammulina velutipes to Pseudomonas tolaasii.
Combined lignocellulosic pretreatment by-products at medium and high doses induce synergistic toxic stress in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, affecting biomass and ethanol production.
- Open access
CRISPR/Cas9 editing of Bcin04g03490 restores infectivity, virulence, and toxin production in Botrytis cinerea B459.
- Open access
Four filamentous fungi, including two Aspergillus species and two Paecilomyces variotii isolates, showed no measurable radiotropism after 7 days near a 137 Cs gamma source.
- Open access
Cocoa husk waste enables a 12.5-fold increase in laccase activity from Irpex cf. latemarginatus, reaching approximately 55 U L -1 under optimized conditions.
Optimal culture conditions for Ganoderma suae mycelial growth include 30 °C temperature, pH 5.5, maltose as the carbon source, soybean peptone as the nitrogen source, and MgSO4 as the inorganic salt.
- Open access
DSE colonization in reed roots reaches up to 66.7% at heavily contaminated sewage sites under severe heavy metal stress.
