Proteomic insight on the polychlorinated biphenyl degrading mechanism of Pleurotus pulmonarius LBM 105
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-02)
White-rot fungi are well known bioremediation agents capable of removing recalcitrant xenobiotics. However, the molecular mechanism involved in this process is not well understood. The aim of the present study was to compare ...
Beneficial effect of Bacillus sp. P12 on soil biological activities and pathogen control in common bean
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2020-02)
Soil is the foundation for agriculture and the medium where almost all food-producing plants are grown. Extensive use of fertilizers and pesticides has affected soil quality, with dangerous ecological effects; therefore, ...
The intersection between cell wall disassembly, ripening, and fruit susceptibility to Botrytis cinerea
(National Academy of Sciences, 2008-01)
Fruit ripening is characterized by processes that modify texture and flavor but also by a dramatic increase in susceptibility to necrotrophic pathogens, such as Botrytis cinerea. Disassembly of the major structural ...
Effectiveness of several nutritional sources on the virulence of Beauveria bassiana s.l. CEP147 against the planthopper Delphacodes kuscheli
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2022-02)
Delphacodes kuscheli Fennah (Hemiptera: Delphacidae) is the main planthopper vector of Mal de Río Cuarto virus (MRCV), a Fijivirus that severely affects maize production in Argentina. The effect of several nutritional ...
Ion and lipid signaling in apical growth - a dynamic machinery responding to extracellular cues
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2015-09)
Apical cell growth seems to have independently evolved throughout the major lineages of life. To a certain extent, so does our body of knowledge on the mechanisms regulating this morphogenetic process. Studies on pollen ...
Exotic litter of the invasive plant Ligustrum lucidum alters enzymatic production and lignin degradation by selected saprotrophic fungi
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2018-03)
Chemical changes in leaf input to forest soils have been reported to affect decay processes. In this work, litter mass loss and decomposition constants (k) during 200 days in solid-state fermentation of the native tree ...
Study of the production of alkaline keratinases in submerged cultures as an alternative for solid waste treatment generated in leather technology
(Korean Society Microbiology & Biotechnology, 2013-07)
Six nonpathogenic fungal strains isolated from alkaline soils of Buenos Aires Province, Argentina (Acremonium murorum, Aspergillus sidowii, Cladosporium cladosporoides, Neurospora tetrasperma, Purpureocillium lilacinum ...
The Trojan Horse Model in Paracoccidioides: A Fantastic Pathway to Survive Infecting Human Cells
(Frontiers Media, 2021-02)
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is the most relevant systemic endemic mycosis limited to Latin American countries. The etiological agents are thermally dimorphic species of the genus Paracoccidioides. Infection occurs via ...
Crystallization and preliminary X-ray characterization of the full-length bacteriophytochrome from the plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2014-12)
Phytochromes give rise to the largest photosensor family known to date. However, they are underrepresented in the Protein Data Bank. Plant, cyanobacterial, fungal and bacterial phytochromes share a canonical architecture ...
Application of surface response methodology to optimize hydrolysis of wheat gluten and characterization of selected hydrolysate fractions
(John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2008-06)
BACKGROUND: The aim of this work was to optimize the hydrolysis experimental conditions to obtain wheat gluten hydrolysates and to characterize fractions from hydrolysates with different hydrolysis degrees in order to ...
