Fungi of the genus Aspergillus are widespread in the environment. Some Aspergillus
species, most commonly Aspergillus fumigatus, may lead to a variety of allergic reactions …

The genus Aspergillus represents a diverse group of fungi that are among the most
abundant fungi in the world. Germination of a spore can lead to a vegetative mycelium that …

The formation of mitotically derived spores, called conidia, is a common reproductive mode
in filamentous fungi, particularly among the large fungal class Ascomycetes. Asexual …

Cellular differentiation, mating, and filamentous growth are regulated in many fungi by
environmental and nutritional signals. For example, in response to nitrogen limitation …

Species of Trichoderma are commercially applied as biological control agents against
fungal pathogens. Since this process requires the degradation of the cell-wall of the fungal …

Successful colonisation of plants by pathogens requires efficient utilisation of nutrient
resources available in host tissues. Several bacterial and fungal genes are specifically …

NADPH oxidases (Nox) have been characterized as higher eukaryotic enzymes used
deliberately to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS). The recent discovery of new …

Asexual development in Aspergillus nidulans begins in superficial hyphae as the
programmed emergence of successive pseudohyphal modules, collectively known as the …

Lovastatin is a secondary metabolite produced by Aspergillus terreus. A chemically defined
