The rhizosphere-competent entomopathogen Metarhizium anisopliae expresses a specific subset of genes in plant root exudate.
Metarhizium anisopliae and Beauveria bassiana are ubiquitous insect pathogens and possible plant symbionts, as some strains are endophytic or colonize the rhizosphere. We evaluated 11 strains of M. anisopliae and B. bassiana, and two soil saprophytes (the non-rhizospheric Aspergillus niger and the rhizosphere-competent Trichoderma harzianum) for their ability to germinate in bean root exudates ...
متن کاملPlant species descriptions show signs of disease.
It is well known that diseases can greatly influence the morphology of plants, but often the incidence of disease is either too rare or the symptoms too obvious for the 'abnormalities' to cause confusion in systematics. However, we have recently come across several misinterpretations of disease-induced traits that may have been perpetuated into modern species inventories. Anther-smut disease (c...
متن کاملMetabolic Conservation and Diversification of Metarhizium Species Correlate with Fungal Host-Specificity
The ascomycete genus Metarhizium contains several species of insect pathogenic fungi ranging from specialists with narrow host ranges to generalists that can infect diverse invertebrates. Genetic and metabolic conservations and diversifications of Metarhizium species are not well understood. In this study, using the genome information of seven Metarhizium species, we performed a comparative ana...
متن کاملFour or more species of Cladosporium sympatrically colonize Phragmites australis.
A collection of Cladosporium has been recovered from common reed growing at Lake Constance (Germany). High-resolution cryo-scanning electron microscopy revealed that Cladosporium isolates from reed are diverse. Morphologically, we distinguished three species, viz. C. herbarum, C. oxysporum, and Cladosporium sp. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence analysis supported these results and, mor...
متن کاملHabitat Specificity in Three Sympatric Species of Ameiva (Reptilia: Teiidae)
Three sympatric species of Ameiva in Costa Rica (A. quadrilineata, A. festiva, and A. leptophrys) were found in distinct habitats with respect to vegetation cover, ground insolation, environmental temperatures, surface litter, and activity periods. Ameiva quadrilineata commonly forages in an area of open, low vegetation cover adjacent to bare soil. Its habitat is sunnier and warmer than those o...
