Light controls important physiological and morphological responses in fungi. Fungi can
sense near-ultraviolet, blue, green, red and far-red light using up to 11 photoreceptors and …

Trichoderma species are widely used in agriculture and industry as biopesticides and
sources of enzymes, respectively. These fungi reproduce asexually by production of conidia …

Fungi, like other organisms, actively sense the environmental light conditions in order to
drive adaptive responses, including protective mechanisms against the light-associated …

All living organisms use numerous signal-transduction systems to sense and respond to
their environments and thereby survive and proliferate in a range of biological niches …

Abstract Development of regulated cellular processes and signaling methods in synthetic
cells is essential for their integration with living materials. Light is an attractive tool to achieve …

The genus Trichoderma contains fungi with high relevance for humans, with applications in
enzyme production for plant cell wall degradation and use in biocontrol. Here, we provide a …

The novel technologies in all areas of agriculture have improved agricultural production, but
some modern practices affect the environment. The recent challenge faced by advanced …

Fungi see light of different colors by using photoreceptors such as the White Collar proteins
and cryptochromes for blue light, opsins for green light, and phytochromes for red light. Light …

Light is one of the most important environmental factors for orientation of almost all
organisms on Earth. Whereas light sensing is of crucial importance in plants to optimize light …

Light inhibits mating and haploid fruiting of the human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus
neoformans, but the mechanisms involved were unknown. Two genes controlling light …
