Screening of Soil and Sheep Faecal Samples for Predacious Fungi: Isolation and Characterization of the Nematode-Trapping Fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora
Over one-year period, 150 pasture soil samples and 138 sheep faecal samples, collected from different parts of Iran were screened for the presence of nematophagous fungi. The samples were cultured at 25ºC on chloramphenicol-2% water agar (CHF-WA) plates in the presence of Haemonchus contortus third stage larvae (L3) and checked over a two-month period for characteristic conidia, conidiophores a...
متن کاملRole of N-Acetylgalactosamine-Specific Protein in Trapping of Nematodes by Arthrobotrys oligospora.
An N-acetylgalactosamine-specific protein was purified from mycelial homogenates of the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora by using affinity chromatography. The molecular weight of the protein was estimated at 22,000 by its comparative mobility on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide slab gels. Pretreatment of nematodes with the purified protein reduced entrapment, indicating a r...
متن کاملMorphological Variations in Conidia of Arthrobotrys oligospora on Different Media
Most commonly occurring predacious fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora showed great variation in size and shape of conidia on some media. The formation of larger conidia was recorded on beef extract and nutrient agar media. The length of conidia in Richard's YPSS, Sabouraud's, PDA and corn meal agar media was of medium size while smaller conidia were produced on Czapek's, Jensen's, Martin's medium. ...
متن کاملSurface polymers of the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora.
The nematophagous fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora captures nematodes using adhesive polymers present on special hyphae (traps) which form a three-dimensional network. To understand further the adhesion mechanisms, A. oligospora surface polymers were visualized by transmission electron microscopy and characterized by chemical methods. Both traps and hyphae were surrounded by a fibrillar layer of ...
