We identified three species of fungiyorous scuttle fly - Megaselia flava, M. kanekoi and M. gotoi - from eight fruit bodies of a fungus, Amanita ibotengutake, which has not previously been recorded as the host of these flies. Many large, evolutionarily successful groups of insect owe much...
among 12 fruit flies, 8 primates, 22 birds and 16 mosquito genomes. Pairwise orthologous genes were identified based on reciprocal best BLASTp hits as described above. Syntenic blocks were then defined as containing at least five contiguous orthologous genes and were extended across gaps of no ...
with virulence in maize infections and the synthesis of T-toxin inCochliobolus heterostrophus[29]. None of the putatively transferred genes identified here inP. digitatumcorrespond to genes that have been described as HGT inP. chrysogenum, among which the penicillin gene cluster is included (see be...
These results indicate that the functions of RNAi components vary significantly among different fungal species. In the current study, we found that the deletion of FgDicer2 or FgAgo1 in hpRNA-mediated gene silencing transformants restored the mRNA expression level of target genes to the wild-...

four signalling pathways are associated with the MAPK pathway: the pheromone pathway, the hypotonic pathway, the high-osmolarity pathway and the starvation pathway. Among these, the HOG pathway is involved in responses to osmotic pressure, and its activation depends on the induction of several genes...
Among these, 167 conserved and 68 candidate novel Bd-milRNAs were identified, of which 161 conserved and 20 novel Bd-milRNA were differentially expressed. WEGO analysis revealed involvement of the differentially expressed Bd-milRNA-targeted genes in metabolic process, catalytic activity, cell process...
Interestingly, four among the five PKS-NRPS hybrids from the P. fici genome are that NRPS domain is followed by PKS domain (Additional file 1: Figure S7). The KS domain is the most conserved and can be used to infer the genealogy of the PKS genes. Phylogenetic analysis based on KS ...
We performed a cluster analysis on eachM. oryzaesupercontig, based upon the proximity-based algorithm of Lu et al. [30] for a comparative analysis of the mycelial andin plantasmall RNA libraries. This clustering algorithm allowed us to determine the abundance of sRNAs and their distribution acros...
Secondary metabolites are involved in intracellular, intercellular, and interspecific interactions [35,36].Pestalotiopsis ficiproduces a wide variety of secondary metabolites, and this motivated us to find the molecular basis of this production by genome sequencing. The average number of core genes relate...
