Phycomyces MADB interacts with MADA to form the primary photoreceptor complex for fungal phototropism
(National Academy of Sciences, 2009)
The fungus Phycomyces blakesleeanus reacts to environmental signals, including light, gravity, touch, and the presence of nearby objects, by changing the speed and direction of growth of its fruiting body (sporangiophore). ...

The second International Symposium on Fungal Stress: ISFUS
(Elsevier, 2018)
The topic of ‘fungal stress’ is central to many important disciplines, including medical mycology, chronobiology, plant and insect pathology, industrial microbiology, material sciences, and astrobiology. The International ...

Expansion of Signal Transduction Pathways in Fungi by Extensive Genome Duplication
(Elsevier, 2016)
Plants and fungi use light and other signals to regulate development, growth, and metabolism. The fruiting bodies of the fungus Phycomyces blakesleeanus are single cells that react to environmental cues, including light, ...

Translocation events in the evolution of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases
(National Academy of Sciences, 1996)
We have characterized hisS, the gene encoding the histidyl-tRNA synthetase (HisRS) from the tetraodontoid fish Fugu rubripes. The hisS gene is about 3.5 kbp long and contains 13 exons and 12 introns of 172 bp, on average. ...

Comparative genomics of citric-acid-producing Aspergillus niger ATCC 1015 versus enzyme-producing CBS 513.88
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2011)
The filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger exhibits great diversity in its phenotype. It is found globally, both as marine and terrestrial strains, produces both organic acids and hydrolytic enzymes in high amounts, and some ...

Fungal stress biology: a preface to the Fungal Stress Responses special edition
(Springer Nature, 2015)
There is currently an urgent need to increase global food security, reverse the trends of increasing cancer rates, protect environmental health, and mitigate climate change. Toward these ends, it is imperative to improve ...

The Phycomyces madA gene encodes a blue-light photoreceptor for phototropism and other light responses
(National Academy of Sciences, 2006)
Phycomyces blakesleeanus is a filamentous zygomycete fungus that produces striking elongated single cells that extend up to 10 cm into the air, with each such sporangiophore supporting a sphere containing the spores for ...

Transcriptional regulation by the velvet protein VE-1 during asexual development in the fungus neurospora crassa.
(American Society for Microbiology, 2022)
Asexual reproduction in fungi facilitates the dispersal and colonization of new substrates and, in pathogenic fungi, allows infection of plants and animals. The velvet complex is a fungus-specific protein complex that ...

Conidiation in Neurospora crassa: vegetative reproduction by a model fungus
(Springer, 2019)
Asexual development, conidiation, in the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa is a simple developmental process that starts with the growth of aerial hyphae. Then, the formation of constrictions and subsequent maturation ...

Genomic analysis of the basal lineage fungus Rhizopus oryzae reveals a whole-genome duplication
(Public Library of Science, 2009)
Rhizopus oryzae is the primary cause of mucormycosis, an emerging, life-threatening infection characterized by rapid angioinvasive growth with an overall mortality rate that exceeds 50%. As a representative of the paraphyletic ...
