The global diversity of fungi has been estimated between 2 to 11 million species, of which
only about 155 000 have been named. Most fungi are invisible to the unaided eye, but they …

Although epigenetic inheritance (EI) is a rapidly growing field of modern biology, it still has
no clear place in fundamental genetic concepts which are traditionally based on the …

The degradation of plant biomass is a major challenge towards the production of bio-based
compounds and materials. As key lignocellulolytic enzyme producers, filamentous fungi …

Mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades mediate cellular responses to
environmental signals. Previous studies in the fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum have …

Mendel laws of inheritance can be cheated by Meiotic Drive Elements (MDs), complex
nuclear genetic loci found in various eukaryotic genomes and distorting segregation in their …

High-mobility group (HMG) B proteins are eukaryotic DNA-binding proteins characterized by
the HMG-box functional motif. These transcription factors play a pivotal role in global …

Background Selective gene silencing is key to development. It is generally accepted that
H3K27me3-enriched heterochromatin maintains transcriptional repression established …

NADPH oxidases (N ox) are membrane complexes that produce O2−. Researches in
mammals, plants and fungi highlight the involvement of Nox‐generated ROS in cell …

Although not as popular as its relative Neurospora crassa or its more distant cousin
Aspergillus nidulans, Podospora anserina has much to offer as a laboratory model. Indeed …

The NADPH oxidase complex of a sclerotial mycoparasite Coniothyrium minitans, an
important biocontrol agent against crop diseases caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, was …
