Fusarium fujikuroi, a causal agent of Rice Bakanae Disease, produces secondary
metabolites such as gibberellin, pigments bikaverin, and mycotoxins fumonisins. Fumonisins …

Bacteria resist copper (Cu) stress by implementing several metabolic mechanisms.
However, these mechanisms are not fully understood. We investigated the mechanism of Cu …

Simple Summary Fusarium graminearum is a devastating plant pathogen that can cause
wheat head blight. Azole fungicides are commonly used chemicals for control of this …

Copper is a metal ion that is required as a micronutrient for growth and proliferation.
However, copper accumulation generates toxicity by multiple mechanisms, potentially …

The periplasmic protein CusF acts as a metallochaperone to mediate Cu resistance in
Escherichia coli. CusF does not contain cysteine residues and barely binds to divalent …

Copper (Cu) ions serve as catalytic cofactors to drive key biochemical processes, and yet Cu
levels that exceed cellular homeostatic control capacity are toxic. The underlying …

Copper (Cu) tolerance was well understood in fungi yeasts but not in filamentous fungi.
Filamentous fungi are eukaryotes but unlike eukaryotic fungi yeasts, which are a collection …

Sphaerodes mycoparasitica is a Fusarium-specific mycoparasite and biocontrol agent
against Fusarium head blight (FHB) in cereals. Fusarium spp. produce harmful …

The zinc finger transcription factor Crz1 is an important downstream regulator of calcium-
dependent signal transduction pathways in many organisms. The function of Crz1 in the …

The filamentous fungus Aspergillus fumigatus is the most important pathogenic fungus
among Aspergillus species associated with aspergillosis. A. fumigatus is exposed to diverse …
