Project description:The thermophilic filamentous fungi Myceliophthora thermophila (Sporotrichum thermophile) has an ability to decompose cellulolytic biomass. To identify the genes and proteins involved in this process, we explored the transcriptomes of M. thermophila grown at 45 °C on different agricultural straws (oat, triticale, canola, flax straws).
Project description:ISR is the initiation of a beneficial association by certain fungi in the rhizosphere followed by the establishment of belowground-aboveground signaling communication may result in the induction of heightened host resistance to foliar and stem pathogens, as well as insect pests.
Project description:Plants coexist in close proximity with numerous microorganisms in their rhizosphere. With certain microorganisms, plants establish mutualistic relationships that can confer physiological benefits to the interacting organisms, including enhanced nutrient assimilation or increased stress tolerance. The root-colonizing endophytic fungi Penicillium chrysogenum, Penicillium minioluteum, and Serendipita indica have been reported to enhance the drought stress tolerance of plants. However, to date, the molecular mechanisms triggered by these fungi in plants remain unexplored. This study presents a comparative analysis of the effects on mock- and fungus-infected tomato plants (var. Moneymaker) under drought stress conditions (40% field capacity) and control conditions (100% field capacity). The findings provide evidence for the induction of common response modules by the fungi.
