Resumo:

The end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st will be remembered as the golden age of molecular systematics of Fungi. The development of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), automated sequencing, and explicit algorithms for inferring phylogenetic trees transformed fungal systematics into a hypothesis-testing discipline that would go on to serve as the foundation for comparative and evolutionary genomics. Many mycologists participated in this modernization of mycology and perhaps none more than Meredith Blackwell. She has played – and continues to play – a leadership role in transforming mycology into a modern science based on a robust understanding of organismal biology, development, testing and refinement of biologically meaningful hypotheses, and incorporation of emerging technologies to data collection and analysis. In this volume we recognize Meredith and her contributions to mycology with the publication of the first Festschrift issue in the 110 year history of Mycologia.

Resumo:

Management improvements have caused a decline in plant species diversity in traditionally managed haymeadows. The aim of this study was examine the effects and causes of management improvements on the soil microbialocmmunity with particular emphasis on the fungal component. A seasonal study of 3 sites showed that management improvements to haymeadows consistently reduced soil microbial biomass C, but had no effect on dehydrogenase activity and basal respiration. Management improvements to these sites also caused a significant reduction in VAM spore numbers, soil fungal biomass, measured as soil ergosterol content and the PLFA 18:w6, and a decrease in the fungal:bacteria PLFA ratio. VAM spore numbers were not correlated with the possibly mycorrhizal NLFA 16:w5. In the Welsh haymeadow, fungi of the genera Fusarium, Mucor, Absidia, Cladosporium, Trichodenna, Acremonium, Zygorhynchus and Paecilomyces were commonly isolated on litter and soil. Commonly isolated fungi had proteolytic and urease activity, and approximately half had cellulose and lignin decay abilities. Management improvements induced shifts in the isolation frequency of these fungi, resulting in an increase in more general resource fungi, capable of growth on both litter and soil. Management improvements to haymeadows, may also have reduced species diversity of litter fungi. Agar and microcosm experiments established that changes in fungal community structure observed in the field could be in response to changes in plant litter inputs and applications of NPK fertiliser. Pairings of fungi on PDA showed that there was a combative hierarchy amongst the fungi, but was not able to show if this hierarchy was affected by NPK. A field experiment found no response of the soil microbial community to short term applications (2 years) of fertiliser or fungicide. The findings of this study suggest that management improvements to grasslands will induce changes in microbial and fungal community structure, this will be discussed.

They grow without us is a temporary public furniture installation grown from mushrooms. The project builds upon transdisciplinary research at the intersection of material science, mycology, and sustainable building technology. To fabricate the furniture, damp sawdust was sterilized and inoculated with a blend of Pleurotus ostreatus mushroom spores and nutrients and poured into aerated hexagonal molds. While in the mold, the fungus produces mycelium, a cross-linked matrix of polysaccharides in the pore spaces between sawdust particles. The process produces solid mycelium bio-composites objects that can be removed from the mould as little as five days. The white coating at the exterior is a hydrophobic material called chitin produced naturally by the mushrooms.

Resumo:

There's more to fungi than just mushrooms. Fungi are the cause of scores of life-threatening diseases, they are the earth's best degraders of organic matter, and they are proving to be more useful to science and manufacturing every year. They come in many forms, ranging from single-celled yeasts on the order of ~10 ÌM to mushrooms the size of dinner plates to thin, powdery coatings of mold. Despite the diversity that science has revealed about fungi and their myriad roles in health, ecology, and industry, much about these organisms remains a mystery. The American Academy of Microbiology convened a colloquium November 2–4, 2007, in Tucson, Arizona, to discuss fungi, the current state of research in fungal biology (mycology), and the gaps in our understanding of this important group of organisms. Experts in mycology, medicine, plant pathogens, genetics/genomics, ecology, and other areas developed specific recommendations for advancing fungal research.

Petri dishes and agar form the foundation of the culture plate technique pioneered by Robert Koch, facilitating the cultivation and study of microorganisms. Agar, derived from red seaweed, solidifies into a transparent medium for microbial growth. Agar plates are classified as nonselective, allowing general growth, and selective, inhibiting specific microbes. Petri dishes, with a dish and lid, provide containers for agar, supporting microbial growth. This technique has revolutionized microbiological research, enabling advances in fields like bacteriology, mycology, infectious diseases, and biotechnology.

Texto completo da fonte

Resumo:

Spore germination is a common and fundamental event in fungal development and in many instances an essential phase of fungal infection and dissemination. Spore germination is also critical for hyperparasites to function as biocontrol agents as well as in fermentation proceses. Our common objective is to understand the mechanisms which regulated spore germination and identify factors involved in pathogenicity related prepenetration development. Our approach is to exploit the overall similarity among filamentous fungi using both a plant pathogen (Colletotricum trifolii) and a model system that is genetically sophisticated (Neurospora crassa). The simulataneous use of two organisms has the advantage of the available tools in Neurospora to rapidly advance the functional analysis of genes involved in spore germination and development of an economically important fungal phytopathogen. Towards this we have isolated a protein kinase gene from C. trifolii (TB3) that is maximally expressed during the first hour of conidial germination and prior to any visible gene tube formation. Based on sequence similarities with other organisms, this gene is likely to be involved in the proliferative response in the fungus. In addition, TB3 was able to functionally complement a N. crassa mutant (COT-1). Pharmacological studies indicated the importance of calmodulin in both germination and appressorium differentiation. Using an antisense vector from N. crassa, direct inhibition of calmodulin results in prevention of differentiation as well as pathogenicity. Both cAMP dependent protein kinase (PKA) and protein kinase C (PKC) like genes have been cloned from C. trifolii. Biochemical inhibition of PKA prevents germination; biochemical inhibitors of PKC prevents appressorium differentiation. In order to analyze reversible phosphorylation as a regulatory mechanism, some ser.thr dephosphorylative events have also been analyzed. Type 2A and Type 2B (calcineurin) phosphatases have been identified and structurally and functionally analyzed in N. crassa during this project. Both phosphatases are essential for hyphal growth and maintenance of proper hyphal architecture. In addition, a first novel-type (PPT/PP5-like) ser/thr phosphatase has been identified in a filamentous fungus. The highly collaborative project has improved our understanding of a fundamental process in fungi, and has identified targets which can be used to develop new approaches for control of fungal plant pathogens as well as improve the performance of beneficial fungi in the field and in industry. In addition, the feasibility of molecular technology transfer in comparative mycology has been demonstrated.

Resumo:

The year 2009 marked both the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth and the 150th anniversary of the publication of his landmark book, On the Origin of Species. In August 2009, to celebrate these milestones, the American Academy of Microbiology convened a colloquium in the Galapagos Islands, where Darwin made some of his most crucial observations, to consider a new question: what would Darwin have made of the microbial world? The ability to sail to remote sites like the Galapagos, and access to specimens collected by himself and other avid naturalists, gave Darwin the information he needed to develop a conceptual framework for understanding life's visible diversity. Today, new discoveries and technical capabilities in microbiology are providing information that for the first time makes it possible to develop a conceptual framework for deepening our understanding of the diversity of the microbial world. Darwin focused his attention on visible life forms, which actually make up only a small fraction of the living world—the invisible world of microorganisms was as yet largely unexplored in his time. Yet Darwin's theory has proven remarkably robust; despite some fundamental differences between microorganisms and the rest of the living world, the two lynchpins of Darwin's theory—descent with modification and natural selection—have proven as powerful in explaining microbial evolution as they have in explaining macrobial evolution. Since Darwin, the advent of Mendelian Genetics and the Modern Synthesis have provided a wealth of new tools to evolutionists; these tools are also of fundamental importance in the modern study of microbiology. The scientists gathered at the colloquium considered two fundamental questions: ▪ Is the balance of evolutionary mechanisms, for example natural selection or drift, or individual and group selection, consistent among microbes and similar between microbes and macrobes? ▪ How are the mode and tempo of microbial evolution influenced by Earth's diversity of environments, and the changing global environment, and how are microbes themselves driving these changes? The colloquium provided an opportunity for individuals with expertise in evolutionary biology, genetic engineering, mycology, virology, microbial ecology, and other fields to discuss these issues and review the areas in which research is needed to fill gaps in our understanding.
