Multigene phylogeny of filamentous ambrosia fungi associated with ambrosia and bark beetles.
Most 'ambrosia' fungi are members of a heterogeneous group of ophiostomatoids that includes the anamorph genera Ambrosiella, Raffaelea and Dryadomyces. The taxonomy of these fungi based on morphological features has been complicated by these features being poorly descriptive and having evolved convergently. In this work we report maximum parsimony and Bayesian phylogenetic analysis of a multige...
متن کاملIsolation of Fungi and Bacteria Associated with the Guts of Tropical Wood-Feeding Coleoptera and Determination of Their Lignocellulolytic Activities
The guts of beetle larvae constitute a complex system where relationships among fungi, bacteria, and the insect host occur. In this study, we collected larvae of five families of wood-feeding Coleoptera in tropical forests of Costa Rica, isolated fungi and bacteria from their intestinal tracts, and determined the presence of five different pathways for lignocellulolytic activity. The fungal iso...
متن کاملGenomic Transition to Pathogenicity in Chytrid Fungi
Understanding the molecular mechanisms of pathogen emergence is central to mitigating the impacts of novel infectious disease agents. The chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is an emerging pathogen of amphibians that has been implicated in amphibian declines worldwide. Bd is the only member of its clade known to attack vertebrates. However, little is known about the molecular det...
متن کاملEFFECTS OF WOOD ON THE GROWTH OF LIGNICOLOUS FRESHWATER FUNGI
The addition of cottonwood and ash sapwood powder to YPSSl2 medium influenced the mycelial growth of 13 species of freshwater lignicolous Ascomycetes and Hyphornycetes. These species fall into three groups with respect to their responses to the presence of leached or non-leached wood powder. Neither wood type showed strong inhibitory effect on the mycelial growth of the species. Leaching di...
متن کاملToxicity of dyes and related compounds to wood-destroying fungi.
In 1891 Ehrlich demonstrated the antimalarial activity of methylene blue and a few years later discovered that trypan red would kill trypanosomes. These disclosures helped lay the foundations of chemotherapy. Since that time many workers have studied the effects of dyes on microorganisms, among them Stearn and Stearn (1924). Dion and Lord (1944) and Aiquel and Herraro (1948) have shown that bas...
