  • Introduction to Mycology
    INTRODUCTION TO MYCOLOGY The term "mycology" is derived from Greek word "mykes" meaning mushroom. Therefore mycology is the study of fungi. The ability of fungi to invade plant and animal tissue was observed in early 19th century but the first documented animal infection by any fungus was made by Bassi, who in 1835 studied the muscardine disease of silkworm and proved the that the infection was caused by a fungus Beauveria bassiana. In 1910 Raymond Sabouraud published his book Les Teignes, which was a comprehensive study of dermatophytic fungi. He is also regarded as father of medical mycology. Importance of fungi: Fungi inhabit almost every niche in the environment and humans are exposed to these organisms in various fields of life. Beneficial Effects of Fungi: 1. Decomposition - nutrient and carbon recycling. 2. Biosynthetic factories. The fermentation property is used for the industrial production of alcohols, fats, citric, oxalic and gluconic acids. 3. Important sources of antibiotics, such as Penicillin. 4. Model organisms for biochemical and genetic studies. Eg: Neurospora crassa 5. Saccharomyces cerviciae is extensively used in recombinant DNA technology, which includes the Hepatitis B Vaccine. 6. Some fungi are edible (mushrooms). 7. Yeasts provide nutritional supplements such as vitamins and cofactors. 8. Penicillium is used to flavour Roquefort and Camembert cheeses. 9. Ergot produced by Claviceps purpurea contains medically important alkaloids that help in inducing uterine contractions, controlling bleeding and treating migraine. 10. Fungi (Leptolegnia caudate and Aphanomyces laevis) are used to trap mosquito larvae in paddy fields and thus help in malaria control. Harmful Effects of Fungi: 1.

Fungi also cause food contamination and deterioration through their formation of toxins, although some of these, like statins and strobilurins, are exploited commercially for our own practical purposes. The ability of fungi to degrade wood makes them responsible for the decay of structural timber in dwellings, but on the other hand enables them to be used to remediate toxic and recalcitrant wastes.

  • Mycology and BIOE 424 – Ecology of Fungi Are Offered in Fall On
    BIOE 424 By Cathy Cripps BIOM 423 - Mycology and BIOE 424 – Ecology of Fungi are offered in Fall on alternate years: even years for Mycology (BIOM 423 listed under Microbiology) and odd years for Ecology of Fungi (BIOE 424 listed under Ecology). Sometimes the classes are hard to find on the MSU website but you can always search under Cathy Cripps as Instructor. Classes are limited to around 15 students and fill up early so if you want to take one of these courses, it is best to sign up early. Either course can be taken first as one focuses on the ecology of fungi and one on the taxonomic groups. I have had many students take both courses to gain a better understanding of fungi. The courses are intended for advanced undergraduates (juniors and seniors) and graduate students although post docs and researchers have attended sections of the course. Each course consists of two lectures per week followed by a two hour lab, although we often stay around to play with fungi after the official lab period ends. Each course has two field trips to nearby habitats. These courses are electives for Plant Biotechnology, Microbial Biotechnology, Plant Pathology, Horticulture, Plant Biology, Organismal Biology, Ecology, Biochemistry, Bioengineering, Microbiology, and some LRES programs. Ecology of Fungi (BIOE 424) is a more research-oriented course often taken by our Biotechnology students, but students in LRES (restoration, etc.), Biochemistry and Bioengineering also take this course to learn how to handle fungi in the laboratory. This course starts with a section on Fungal Ecology covering fungi as decomposers of various substrates, as pathogens (primarily of plants although epidemiology is not covered), endophytes (often with a visit from Dr.

    INTRODUCTORY MYCOLOGY FOR THE CURIOUS NATURALIST Week 3: May 14 Ecological Functions of Fungi Bill Bakaitis class download 4/15/19 As members of the Fifth Kingdom, Fungi are essential to the integrated systematic functioning and health of our planets ecosystem. In this presentation we will briefly sketch in a few basic concepts necessary in general to understand the dynamic, emergent, complex, self-regulation of a healthy system. Following this we will look more specifically at the some of the various ways fungi serve/assist in the role of system regulators. These basic ideas are conceptual: I have therefor prepared a few outlines and drawings which I hope will assist in advancing the material I wish to share. There will be plenty of slides of nature and mushrooms, but if you are the type of person who would like to have a deeper grasp of the Natural World, you may wish to print out the following outlines and drawings and bring them with you to this talk, which will be the most conceptual of the four in this series. We will not be looking at the ecological consequences of commercial collection of Mushrooms in this presentation, but if interested in this problem, you may wish to read my critical assessment which I was asked to prepare for Mycophile, the Newsletter of NAMA, The North American Mycological Association. http://www.namyco.org/docs/MycophileJulyAug2013.pdf (Thoughts on Mushroom Foraging pp 16-19… and while you are there, you might have a look at Larry Evans brief article p. 13 on the role of fungal hyphae in sequestering carbon, an idea which will be discussed in this week’s presentation.) .

  • Mycology: Unravelling the Riddle of the Filamentous Fungi
    Microbiology The picture shows different color mutants of Aspergillus nidulans. Wild type forms green spores which cover almost the entire colony. It is easy to generate mutants in which pigment biosynthesis is blocked at certain stages and thus a different pigment variant (yellow) or no pigments (white) are produced. Mutants are a great starting point for a molecular analysis. This approach has been used to study many cellular processes and made A. nidulans a model organism for lower eukaryotes and beyond. The diameter of a colony is about 1 cm. less well known is that they play a vital role, not only in generating nutrients, but also in plant nutrient uptake: every metre of plant root in the soil is associated with roughly a kilometre of symbiotic fungal hyphae, known as ‘mycorrhiza’, which take up nutrients and pass them to the plant. Filamentous fungi are important pathogens of crop plants, and in a few cases cause serious human disease, particularly in the immunocompromised. They have also been harnessed for biotechnological uses, including crucially in the production of antibiotics such With the help of the jellyfish green fluorescent protein (GFP) researchers visualised the microtubule as penicillin, other medicines, citric acid, cytoskeleton in Aspergillus nidulans. Round spores and foods such as soy sauce and cheese. To produced long hyphae, and microtubules are visible as long filaments in the cells. They serve as tracks scientists, fungi are also important due to the for intracellular traffic.

  • Introduction
    OPEN Introduction Fungal infections or mycoses are the great neglected diseases of medical history.1 There are numerous histories of viral, bacterial and protozoan infections, for all times and all places, but very few studies of those caused by fungi. Why? It cannot be because of prevalence. Histori- cal sources and contemporary epidemiological investigations show that fungal infections were and are ubiquitous in human and animal popula- tions. Everyone in Britain and the United States in the last half a century would have heard of, if not suffered from, athlete’s foot or thrush. In the first half of the twentieth century, children feared the school nurse find- ing ringworm on their scalp and having to endure, not only the pains of X-ray depilation or having their shaven head painted with gentian vio- let, but also exclusion from school and the shame of being stigmatised as ‘unclean’.2 It seems that medical historians have followed the agenda of the med- ical profession in showing relatively little interest in conditions, such as the majority of cases of mycoses, that do not lead to ‘illness’ as such, but cause inflammation, irritation and discomfort. Medical history remains dominated by studies of diseases that had, or continue to have, a high profile within medicine, or have attracted government interest and investment because they cause significant morbidity or mortality. Yet, the majority experience of ill health was, and is, of self-limiting and self-treated conditions, where sufferers did not, and do not, consult a doctor and become ‘patients’. In their efforts to recover ‘the patient’s view’, medical historians have ignored the minor illnesses, injuries and infections that were, and remain, outside of the medical gaze.3 But medical historians have also largely ignored the ailments brought on by medical advances, and here too the history of fungal infections 1 A.
