Fungi and nematodes are among the most abundant organisms in soil habitats. They
provide essential ecosystem services and play crucial roles for maintaining the stability of …

Nematode-trapping (NT) fungi play a significant role in the biological control of plant-
parasitic nematodes. NT fungi, as a predator, can differentiate into specialized structures …

Nematode-trapping (NT) fungi can form unique infection structures (traps) to capture and kill
free-living nematodes and, thus, can play a potential role in the biocontrol of nematodes …

The asexual sporulation of filamentous fungi is an important mechanism for their
reproduction, survival, and pathogenicity. In Aspergillus and several filamentous fungi, BrlA …

Nutritional deprivation triggers a switch from a saprotrophic to predatory lifestyle in soil-
dwelling nematode-trapping fungi (NTF). In particular, the NTF Arthrobotrys oligospora …

The cyclic adenosine monophosphate‐protein kinase A (cAMP‐PKA) signalling pathway is
evolutionarily conserved in eukaryotes and plays a crucial role in defending against external …

Detection of surrounding organisms in the environment plays a major role in the evolution of
interspecies interactions, such as predator–prey relationships. Nematode-trapping fungi …

Regulators of G protein signaling (RGSs) are proteins that negatively regulate G protein
signal transduction. In this study, seven putative RGSs were characterized in the nematode …

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) Fus3 is an essential regulator of cell differentiation
and virulence in fungal pathogens of plants and animals. However, the function and …

Resistance to inhibitors of cholinesterase 8 (Ric8) is a conserved guanine nucleotide
exchange factor that is involved in the regulation of G‐protein signalling in filamentous fungi …
