Fungal endophytes residing in the internal tissues of living plants occur in almost every plant
on earth from the arctic to the tropics. The endophyte–host relationship is described as a …

Fungi are considered among the most efficient microbial degraders of plastics, as they
produce salient enzymes and can survive on recalcitrant compounds with limited nutrients …

Covering: up to June 2006We review the literature on the enzymes, genes, and whole gene
clusters underlying natural product biosyntheses and their regulation in filamentous fungi …

Fungal secondary metabolites are of intense interest to humankind due to their
pharmaceutical (antibiotics) and/or toxic (mycotoxins) properties. In the past decade …

DNA-mediated genetic transformation of Aspergillus nidulans has been achieved by
incubating protoplasts from a strain of A. nidulans carrying a deletion in the acetamidase …

The genus Trichoderma contains fungi with high relevance for humans, with applications in
enzyme production for plant cell wall degradation and use in biocontrol. Here, we provide a …

Filamentous fungi have long been used for production of a range of valuable products; with
the advent of molecular biology, it became apparent that these fungi possess considerable …

The regulatory gene areA mediating nitrogen metabolite repression in Aspergillus nidulans
has been sequenced and its transcript mapped and orientated. A single ORF can encode a …

Covering: Up to March 2019 Secondary metabolites (SMs) are chemical entities produced
