Factors affecting the occurrence and distribution of entomopathogenic fungi in natural and cultivated soils.
Factors affecting the occurrence and distribution of entomopathogenic fungi in 244 soil samples collected from natural and cultivated areas in Spain were studied using an integrated approach based on univariate and multivariate analyses. Entomopathogenic fungi were isolated from 175 of the 244 (71.7%) soil samples, with only two species found, Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium anisopliae. Of t...
متن کاملWidespread Occurrence of Expressed Fungal Secretory Peroxidases in Forest Soils
Fungal secretory peroxidases mediate fundamental ecological functions in the conversion and degradation of plant biomass. Many of these enzymes have strong oxidizing activities towards aromatic compounds and are involved in the degradation of plant cell wall (lignin) and humus. They comprise three major groups: class II peroxidases (including lignin peroxidase, manganese peroxidase, versatile p...
متن کاملIsolation and Screening of Xylanase Producing Fungi from Forest Soils
Enzymes are distinct natural biological polymers which can catalyze the chemical/ biological reactions and convert substrates to specific product (Haq et al. 2006). Xylanase [E.C.3.2.1.8] are a class of hydrolytic enzymes which can hydrolyze the straight polysaccharide -1, 4-xylan in hemicelluloses which is a noteworthy component of secondary cell wall of plants (Dhiman et al. 2008). Xylan, the...
متن کاملNEW RECORDS OF SOME ENTOMOPATHOGENIC FUNGI FROM IRAN
Examining dead insects from different locations in Mazandaran, Gilan and TehranProvinces, specimens with fungal outgrowth were selected for further investigations. After isolation and purification of fungi they were identified as follows:Beauveria brongniartii (Sacc.) Petch*On Coccinella septempunctata, Tehran Prov., Varamin, Ghara-Aghaj mountains, M.H. Ghassemi (IRAN 1025 C). Paecilomyces tenu...
متن کاملEntomopathogenic Fungi on Hemiberlesia pitysophila
Hemiberlesia pitysophila Takagi is an extremely harmful exotic insect in forest to Pinus species, including Pinus massoniana. Using both morphological taxonomy and molecular phylogenetics, we identified 15 strains of entomogenous fungi, which belong to 9 genera with high diversities. Surprisingly, we found that five strains that were classified as species of Pestalotiopsis, which has been consi...
