Culture of Metarhizium robertsii on salicylic-acid supplemented medium induces increased conidial thermotolerance.
Salicylic acid (SA), a cell-signaling metabolite in plants, is involved in resistance of plants to pathogens and environmental stresses; however, there is little information available on the responses of fungi to SA. Conidia of Metarhizium robertsii (ARSEF 2575) (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae) were produced on potato dextrose agar medium plus yeast extract (PDAY) supplemented with 1, 2, 4, or 8 ...
متن کاملA High-Throughput Gene Disruption Methodology for the Entomopathogenic Fungus Metarhizium robertsii
Systematic gene disruption is a direct way to interrogate a fungal genome to functionally characterize the full suite of genes involved in various biological processes. Metarhizium robertsii is extraordinarily versatile, and it is a pathogen of arthropods, a saprophyte and a beneficial colonizer of rhizospheres. Thus, M. robertsii can be used as a representative to simultaneously study several ...
متن کاملDiversity of glycosil hydrolase family 18 genes in environment isolates of the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae
Backgound Metarhizium anisopliae is a model for host-pathogen studies due to its ability to infect several different arthropods. The first barrier to accomplish successful host-infection is transverse the host cuticle, which is a rigid chitin-rich structure. To surpass this barrier, the fungus produces several hydrolytic enzymes, among which are chitinases and endo-b-N-acetylglucosaminidases, g...
متن کاملSusceptibility of Seven Termite Species (Isoptera) to the Entomopathogenic Fungus Metarhizium anisopliae
Seven termite species (Isoptera) from five families were tested for disease susceptibility against the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae using a standard protocol: Mastotermes darwiniensis (Mastotermitidae), Hodotermopsis sjoestedti (termopsidae), Hodotermes mossambicus (Hodotermitidae), Kalotermes flavicollis (Kalotermitidae), Reticulitermes flavipes and Prorhinotermes canalifrons...
متن کاملThe entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae alters ambient pH, allowing extracellular protease production and activity.
Ambient pH regulates the expression of virulence genes of Metarhizium anisopliae, but it was unknown if M. anisopliae can regulate ambient pH. Mutants of M. anisopliae altered in production of oxalic acid were evaluated for the interrelationship of ambient pH, buffering capacity added to media, growth, and generation of extracellular proteases and ammonia. Wild-type and acid-overproducing mutan...
