Leaf litter is a very important primary source of energy in woodland streams. Decomposition of leaf litter is a process mediated
by many groups of microorganisms which release extracellular enzymes for the degradation of complex macromolecules. In this
process, true fungi and straminipiles are considered to be among the most active groups, more active than the bacteria, at
least during the early stages of the process. Colonization increases the quality of the leaves as a food resource for detritivores.
In this way, matter and energy enter detritus-based food chains. Previously, aquatic hyphomycetes were considered to be the
major fungal group responsible for leaf litter decomposition. Although zoosporic fungi and straminipiles are known to colonize
and decompose plant tissues in various environments, there is scant information on their roles in leaf decomposition. This
study focuses on the communities of zoosporic fungi and straminipiles in a stream which are involved in the decomposition
of leaves of two plant species, Ligustrum lucidum and Pouteria salicifolia, in the presence of other groups of fungi. A characteristic community dominated by Nowakowskiella elegans, Phytophthora sp., and Pythium sp. was found. Changes in the fungal community structure over time (succession) was observed: terrestrial mitosporic fungi
appeared during the early stages, zoosporic fungi, straminipiles, and aquatic Hyphomycetes in early-to-intermediate stages,
while representatives of the phylum Zygomycota were found at early and latest stages of the decomposition. These observations
highlight the importance of zoosporic fungi and straminipiles in aquatic ecosystems. 相似文献

Melanin pigments are substances produced by a broad variety of pathogenic microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and helminths.
Microbes predominantly produce melanin pigment via tyrosinases, laccases, catecholases, and the polyketide synthase pathway.
In fungi, melanin is deposited in the cell wall and cytoplasm, and melanin particles (“ghosts”) can be isolated from these
fungi that have the same size and shape of the original cells. Melanin has been reported in several human pathogenic dimorphic
fungi including Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, Sporothrix schenckii, Histoplasma capsulatum, Blastomyces dermatitidis, and Coccidioides posadasii. Melanization appears to contribute to virulence by reducing the susceptibility of melanized fungi to host defense mechanisms
and antifungal drugs. 相似文献

Microorganisms produce low-molar-mass secondary metabolites exhibiting different biological activities, which are used.e.g., in medicine as antimicrobial and antifungal agents, alkaloids and toxins. Some of these substances have highly diverse biological
activities and unusual structures. They are produced by streptomycetes, fungi, and bacilli, but interesting products have
also been obtained from microorganisms growing in extreme conditions. Several thousands of microbial products have so far
been discovered and many other, which can be potentially useful, and/or prospective for human use, can still be in the offing. 相似文献

The distribution of microorganisms in four soil samples taken near Casey Station, Wilkes Land, and on Dewart Island, Frazier
Islands (East Antarctica), was studied using isolation cultures at different temperatures. The fungal assemblages comprised Penicillium, Alternaria, Cladosporium, Phoma, Verticillium, Phialophora, Candida and Rhodotorula. Microalgal Chlorophyta were also common. Among the bacteria representatives of cyanobacteria, Staphylococcus, Bacillus, Pantoea, Streptomyces, Micromonospora, and coryne- and nocardioform species were found. Some of the isolated actinomycete strains, determined as Arthrobacter, Rhodococcus, Streptomyces and Micromonospora, produced extracellular substances with antibacterial and antifungal activities. Their potential as biological agents against
phytopathogenic bacteria and fungi is discussed. 相似文献

Volatiles produced by mycelia of mushrooms with aromatic odour were investigated for their antifungal activity against plant‐pathogenic fungi. The results of the screening of 23 species of basidiomycetes revealed that volatile substances from mycelia of Mycoleptodonoides aitchisonii (TUFC10099), an edible mushroom, strongly inhibited the mycelial growth, spore germination and lesion formation on host leaves of some plant‐pathogenic fungi including Alternaria alternata, A. brassicicola, A. brassicae, Colletotrichum orbiculare and Corynespora cassiicola. The volatile compounds were isolated from the culture filtrate of M. aitchisonii, and 1‐phenyl‐3‐pentanone was identified as a major antifungal volatile. The compound had significantly inhibitory activity against plant‐pathogenic fungi at 35 ppm. This is the first report that the volatile compound produced by mycelia of M. aitchisonii has antifungal activity against plant‐pathogenic fungi. 相似文献

Phenol and its derivatives are one of the largest groups of environmental pollutants due to their presence in many industrial effluents and broad application as antibacterial and antifungal agents. A number of microbial species possess enzyme systems that are applicable for the decomposition of various aliphatic and aromatic toxic compounds. Intensive efforts to screen species with high‐degradation activity are needed to study their capabilities of degrading phenol and phenolic derivatives. Most of the current research has been directed at the isolation and study of microbial species of potential ecological significance. In this review, some of the best achievements in degrading phenolic compounds by bacteria and yeasts are presented, which draws attention to the high efficiency of strains of Pseudomonas, Candida tropicalis, Trichosporon cutaneum, etc. The unique ability of fungi to maintain their degradation potential under conditions unfavorable for other microorganisms is outstanding. Mathematical models of the microbial biodegradation dynamics of single and mixed aromatic compounds, which direct to the benefit of the processes studied in optimization of modern environmental biotechnology are also presented. 相似文献

Parasitism is a widespread interaction that plays significant roles in ecosystem balance and evolution. Historically the biology of zoosporic parasites is often a neglected field when studying aquatic ecological dynamics, especially in marine ecosystems. In the marine environment, dinoflagellates represent a significantly large component of primary production, and may be infected by a variety of fungal and fungus-like parasites including chytrids, syndiniales, and perkinsids as well as other microorganisms. The relationship between these organisms and their dinoflagellate hosts constitutes a highly significant pathosystem given the increasing importance of aquaculture. Because of their small size and lack of morphological characteristics these organisms are difficult to identify. This review compares the taxonomy, life cycle, host range, infection strategies, and ecological roles of species of Parvilucifera, Amoebophrya and Dinomyces which are parasites of dinoflagellates. Most of these species have only been described recently. Implications for environmental management are discussed. 相似文献

A systemic study of fungal endophytes associated with different plant parts of Cannabis sativa and their antifungal activity was investigated in the present study. A total of 281 plant segments, including 91 leaves, 93 stem and 97 petioles samples, were screened for the isolation of endophytic fungi. Totally, 212 (77.65%) segments were found colonised by different fungi. Highest colonisation frequency were observed in stem parts (84.94%), then leaves (82.41%) and lowest 59.79% in petiole. Total eight fungal genera belonging to 12 species were isolated. Aspergillus is recorded as the most frequently occurring genera with three species Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus nidulans followed by Penicillium with two species Penicillium chrysogenum and Penicillium citrinum, while Phoma, Rhizopus, Colletotrichum, Cladosporium and Curvularia with single species. The antifungal potential of A. niger and A. flavus – two most frequently isolated endophytic fungi – was evaluated against two common plant pathogen, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Curvularia lunata. Different plant and fungal extracts individually and in combinations showed variations in antifungal activity against both the pathogens. The primary results obtained on antifungal activity of endophytes show their possible role in plant defence mechanism but it is a preliminary approach and more extensive research is still required. 相似文献

Pseudomonads play crucial roles in plant growth promotion and control of plant diseases. However, under natural conditions, other microorganisms competing for the same nutrient resources in the rhizosphere may exert negative control over their phytobeneficial characteristics. We assessed the expression of phytobeneficial genes involved in biocontrol, biostimulation and iron regulation such as, phlD, hcnA, acdS, and iron-small regulatory RNAs prrF1 and prrF2 in Pseudomonas brassicacearum co-cultivated with three phytopathogenic fungi, and two rhizobacteria in the presence or absence of Brassica napus, and in relation to iron availability. We found that the antifungal activity of P. brassicacearum depends mostly on the production of DAPG and not on HCN whose production is suppressed by fungi. We have also shown that the two-competing bacterial strains modulate the plant growth promotion activity of P. brassicacearum by modifying the expression of phlD, hcnA and acdS according to iron availability. Overall, it allows us to better understand the complexity of the multiple molecular dialogues that take place underground between microorganisms and between plants and its rhizosphere microbiota and to show that synergy in favour of phytobeneficial gene expression may exist between different bacterial species. 相似文献

Fungal endophytes were isolated from the leaves of Calotropis procera (Apocynaceae) collected from Taif region (Saudi Arabia). Thirty-three different taxa were recovered. The overall foliar colonization rate was 35.1%. A total of 161 isolates were obtained and identified into 33 distinct operational taxonomic units based on the sequencing of the internal transcribed spacer regions of the rRNA gene. The most prevalent fungi were Aspergillus flavus, Chaetomium globosum, Cochliobolus lunatus, Fusarium dimerum, F. oxysporum, and Penicillium chrysogenum. A total of 161 isolates were tested for antifungal activities against four plant pathogenic fungi (Alternaria alternata, Fusarium oxysporum, Botrytis cinerea, and Pythium ultimum), of which 33 isolates showed antifungal activity against at least one plant pathogenic fungi. Four isolates of Chaetomium globosum and three isolates of Myrothecium verrucaria showed the strongest antifungal activity. This study reported the occurrence of a much wider spectrum of fungi, when compared with previous work. Also, it confirmed the variation of different isolates from the same species in terms of antifungal activity. 相似文献

Hyphal growth and mycorrhiza formation by the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus claroideum BEG 23 is stimulated by humic substances 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Effects of humic substances (humic acid or fulvic soil extract) or saprophytic microorganisms (Paecilomyces lilacinus and an unidentified actinomycete) on growth of mycelium and mycorrhiza formation by Glomus claroideum BEG23 were studied in a hydroponic system. Humic substances stimulated root colonization and production of extraradical mycelium by the mycorrhizal fungus. Both humic and fulvic acids tended to decrease populations of culturable bacteria and fungi in the cultivation system, indicating a moderately antibiotic activity. The addition of saprophytic microorganisms able to use humic substances to the cultivation system further stimulated the development of the mycorrhizal fungus. However, stimulation of G. claroideum was also observed when the saprophytic microorganisms were heat-killed, suggesting that their effect was not linked to a specific action on humic substances. The results indicate that humic substances may represent a stimulatory component of the soil environment with respect to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. 相似文献

Phylogenetic relationships of seven isolates of the genus Haptoglossa parasitic on terrestrial nematodes within the Peronosporomycetes were analyzed using 18S rDNA sequence data with 21 peronosporomycetes,
2 marine stramenopilous flagellates, and 2 hyphochytridiomycetes. The marine stramenopilous flagellates and hyphochytridiomycetes
were used as the outgroup. All Haptoglossa isolates formed a monophyletic clade and clustered with the marine genus Eurychasma. The clade of Haptoglossa and Eurychasma formed a sister-group to the clade that consisted of all other peronosporomycetes. These results suggest that the genus Haptoglossa and other terrestrial peronosporomycetes included in the two subclasses, the Saprolegniomycetidae and the Peronosporomycetidae,
might have originally adapted to the terrestrial environment individually. In the maximum-likelihood (ML) analysis, the Haptoglossa clade was divided into three subclades, one aplanosporic species clade and two zoosporic species clades. Phylogenetic analyses
of combined 18S rDNA and cox2 genes among five species of Haptoglossa supported the results of the ML analysis using 18S rDNA and suggested that zoosporic species may be separated into two lineages.
This topology of the analysis may suggest that aplanosporic species diverged from zoosporic species. 相似文献

This paper reports the isolation from soil of Penicillium strain PY-1 with strong antagonistic activity against plant pathogenic fungi. On the basis of its morphological characteristics
and the sequence of the ITS region, strain PY-1 was identified as P. oxalicum. Strain PY-1 produces antifungal substances that suppress the mycelial growth of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and many other plant pathogenic fungi tested; the highest antagonistic activity was detected at 72 h when cultured in a 250-ml
flask containing 80 ml potato dextrose broth. Compared with carbendazim, the relative activity of the antifungal substances
produced by strain PY-1 was approximately 4 μg active ingredient (a.i.) per milliliter. The antifungal substances were extracted
with ethyl acetate and further separated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC); at least two active components
were discovered. The ability to control plant disease with strain PY-1 was confirmed with S. sclerotiorum, a widespread pathogenic fungus that attacks rapeseed (Brassica napus) and other plants. Spores (106 or 107 ml−1) and filtrate (tenfold diluted or undiluted) of strain PY-1 could significantly suppress infection and/or the extent of infection
by S. sclerotiorum of plants at seven-true-leaves stage. The potential of strain PY-1 for identifying new antibiotics to control fungal disease
and for biological control of plant disease, for example oilseed rape stem rot, is discussed. 相似文献

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a minimally invasive approach, in which a photosensitizer compound is activated by exposure
to light. The activation of the sensitizer drug results in several chemical reactions, such as the production of reactive
oxygen species and other reactive molecules, which presence in the biological site leads to the damage of target cells. Although
PDT has been primarily developed to combat cancerous lesions, this therapy can be employed for the treatment of several conditions,
including infectious diseases. A wide range of microorganisms, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, viruses,
protozoa, and fungi, have demonstrated susceptibility to antimicrobial PDT. This treatment might consist in an alternative
for the management of fungal infections. Antifungal photodynamic therapy has been successfully employed against Candida species, dermatophytes, and Aspergillus niger. Chromoblastomycosis is an infection that involves skin and subcutaneous tissues caused by the traumatic inoculation of dematiaceous
fungi species, being that the most prevalent are Fonsecaea pedrosoi and Claphialophora carrionii. In the present work, the clinical applications of PDT for the treatment of chromoblastomycosis are evaluated. We have employed
methylene blue as photosensitizer and a LED (Light Emitting Diode) device as light source. The results of this treatment are
positive, denoting the efficacy of PDT against chromoblastomycosis. Considering that great part of the published works are
focused on in vitro trials, these clinical tests can be considered a relevant source of information about antifungal PDT,
since its results have demonstrated to be promising. The perspectives of this kind of treatment are analyzed in agreement
with the recent literature involving antifungal PDT. 相似文献
