Sustainable fungal materials have a high potential to replace non-sustainable materials
such as those used for packaging or as an alternative for leather and textile. The properties …

Cre1 is an important transcription factor that regulates carbon catabolite repression (CCR)
and is widely conserved across fungi. The cre1 gene has been extensively studied in …

Coprinopsis cinerea has seven homologs of the Aspergillus nidulans transcription factor
NsdD. Of these, CcNsdD1 and CcNsdD2 from C. cinerea show the best identities of 62 and …

The development of sexual fruiting bodies is one of the most complex morphogenetic
processes in fungi. Mycologists have long been fascinated by the morphological and …

Coprinopsis cinerea is one of the model species used in fungal developmental studies. This
mushroom-forming Basidiomycetes fungus has several developmental destinies in …

The medicinal fungus Wolfiporia cocos colonizes and then grows on the wood of Pinus
species, and utilizes a variety of Carbohydrate Active Enzymes (CAZymes) to degrades …

Fruiting bodies (sporocarps, sporophores or basidiomata) of mushroom-forming fungi
(Agaricomycetes) are among the most complex structures produced by fungi. Unlike …

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways, such as the high-osmolarity glycerol
mitogen-activated protein kinase (HOG) pathway, are evolutionarily conserved signaling …

The “developmental hourglass” describes the morphological convergence to a conserved
form at mid-stages of animal embryogenesis. The molecular hourglass pattern during …

Growth and reproduction are two essential life‐history traits for fungi. Understanding life‐
history strategies provides insight into the environmental adaption of species. Here, we …
