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

The mycelium of woodland fungi can act both as a reservoir and as a distribution system for
nutrients, owing to its physiological and developmental adaptations to life at the interface …

Nonself recognition during somatic growth is an essential and ubiquitous phenomenon in
both prokaryotic and eukaryotic species. In filamentous fungi, nonself recognition is also …

Abstract POLY (ADP-RIBOSE) polymerase (PARP) is a highly conserved enzyme involved
in multiple aspects of animal and plant cell physiology. For example, PARP is thought to be …

A Brazilian strain of Penicillium verrucosum was cultivated under different conditions in a
two-step process, in order to verify the influence of nutrients, and of time periods of pre …

Programmed cell death (PCD), in which cells actively participate in their own death through
the activation of defined pathways, has long been established as an important …

Cell death may be classified into three main categories: autophagy, apoptosis, and necrosis.
The first two are programmed and are genetically regulated, and the third is environmentally …
