Mycoviruses are viruses that infect fungi. A growing number of novel mycoviruses have
expanded our knowledge of virology, particularly in taxonomy, ecology, and evolution …

Elucidating the biology of yeast in its full complexity has major implications for science,
medicine and industry. One of the most critical processes determining yeast life and …

We present the genome sequences of a new clinical isolate of the important human
pathogen, Aspergillus fumigatus, A1163, and two closely related but rarely pathogenic …

Ecological factors, hybrid sterility and differences in ploidy levels are well known for
contributing to gene-flow barriers in plants. Another common postzygotic incompatibility …

Plant disease resistance genes (R genes) encode proteins that function to monitor signals
indicating pathogenic infection, thus playing a critical role in the plant's defense system …

Certain pathogens deliver effectors into plant cells to modify host protein targets and thereby
suppress immunity. These target modifications can be detected by intracellular immune …

The problem of food spoilage due to Aspergillus flavus (A. flavus) needs to be resolved. In
this study, we found that the minimum inhibitory concentration of cinnamaldehyde (CA) that …

Non-self recognition resulting in programmed cell death is a ubiquitous phenomenon in
filamentous ascomycete fungi and is termed heterokaryon incompatibility (HI). Recent …

Cells of all living organisms are programmed to self-destruct under certain conditions. The
most well known form of programmed cell death is apoptosis, which is essential for proper …

Filamentous fungi are of great importance in ecology, agriculture, medicine, and
biotechnology. Thus, it is not surprising that genomes for more than 100 filamentous fungi …
