Fusarium infection in wheat, aggressiveness and changes in grain quality: a review
(Society for Plant Research, 2019-12)
Fusarium Head Blight, one of the most devastating diseases on small-grain cereals, has caused severe epidemics worldwide, altering yield and quality parameters of grains and contaminating them with fungal toxins. The ...
Internalization of a sunflower mannose-binding lectin into phytopathogenic fungal cells induces cytotoxicity
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2018-02)
Lectins are carbohydrate-affinity proteins with the ability to recognize and reversibly bind specific glycoconjugates. We have previously isolated a bioactive sunflower mannose-binding lectin belonging to the jacalin-related ...
Strategies to reduce mycotoxin levels in maize during storage: A review
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2010-03-26)
Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the main cereals as a source of food, forage and processed products for industry. World production is around 790 million tonnes of maize because as a staple food it provides more than one-third ...
Draft genome sequence data of Cercospora kikuchii, a causal agent of Cercospora leaf blight and purple seed stain of soybeans
(Elsevier, 2019-12)
Cercospora kikuchii (Tak. Matsumoto & Tomoy.) M.W. Gardner 1927 is an ascomycete fungal pathogen that causes Cercospora leaf blight and purple seed stain on soybean. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence and ...
The use of soy protein polymers as a release device for nematophagous fungi in the control of parasitic nematodes in ruminants
(Cambridge University Press, 2014-12)
This trial was conducted to evaluate the predatory activity of Duddingtonia flagrans incorporated into soy protein-based polymers as a controlled-release device (CRD). The rate of fungal release from the polymers and time ...
Towards an Optimal Methodology for Basidiomes Production of Naturally Occurring Species of the Genus Oudemansiella (Basidiomycetes)
(Springer, 2021-04)
Oudemansiella species are worldwide distributed and they are characterized for having attractive appearance, a soft fleshy context and mild taste and odor, what makes them interesting for mushroom intensive production. ...
Effect of Debaryomyces hansenii and the antifungal PgAFP protein on Alternaria spp. growth, toxin production, and RHO1 gene expression in a tomato-based medium
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-08)
Tomato fruit is susceptible to Alternaria spp. spoilage, which poses a health risk due to their mycotoxin production. Biopreservation relies on the use of whole microorganisms or their metabolites to manage spoilage ...
Fluorescent protein expression in the ectomycorrhizal fungus Laccaria bicolor: a plasmid toolkit for easy use of fluorescent markers in basidiomycetes
(Springer, 2020-08)
For long time, studies on ectomycorrhiza (ECM) have been limited by inefficient expression of fluorescent proteins (FPs) in the fungal partner. To convert this situation, we have evaluated the basic requirements of FP ...
Natural occurrence in Argentina of a new fungal pathogen of cockroaches, Metarhizium argentinense sp. nov.
(Elsevier Science, 2019-05)
The aim of this study was to search for entomopathogenic fungi that infect wild cockroaches in forest ecosystems in two protected natural areas of Argentina. Two isolates of Metarhizium argentinenseBlaberidae: Epilamprinae) ...
Nucleus-directed fluorescent reporter system for promoter studies in the ectomycorrhizal fungus Laccaria bicolor
(Elsevier, 2021-11)
Currently ectomycorrhizal research suffers from a lack of molecular tools specifically adapted to study gene expression in fungal symbionts. Considering that, we designed pReNuK, a cloning vector for transcriptional promoter ...
