ABSTRACT The nematicidal activity of the nematode-trapping fungi Dactylaria brochopaga and Arthrobotrys dactyloides in their compounds named (Dbx-1003) 20% and (Adx-1004) 20% respictevely to control Meloidogyne incognita infesting peanut plant Arachis hypogaea L. CV. Giza 5. were evaluated under field conditions in Egypt. Each compound were added to the soil in two forms once as a liquid using two concentrations 20,40 liter/feddan after germination. And the other treatments were added to the soil as granules around the peanut seed plants at planting time at rates of 100, 200 kg/feddan. A treatment without any addition was used as check treatment. Data indicated two months after application that population densities of M. incognita in soil were significantly reduced in all treatments compared with control, as well as gall formation on peanut roots. The highest reduction in the nematode counts in soil and root galls was recorded with the application of fungus D. brochopaga. Four months after treatments at the end of growing season the percentages reduction were increased espicaialy with using granules of the two fungus. Peanut yield was significantly increased due to the addition of the two fungus to the soil, especially when applied at higher dosage levels. Key Words: Nematode-trapping fungi - Dactylaria brochopaga - Arthrobotrys dactyloides - Meloidogyne incognita – Peanut - Field conditions. INTRODUCTION Monacrosporium bembicode were tested by Duponnois et al., (1997) for their trapping ability Hertz (1992) reported that conidia of Arthrobotrys against Meloidogyne mayaguensis. Most of the oligospora germinated directly into adhesive traps when Arthrobotrys strains and one Dactylaria strain applied close to cow faeces on water agar plates. The decreased development of the nematode in tobacco conidial trap is considered a survival structure enabling plants. They found that the growth of the tobacco the fungus to overcome fungistasis. Traps adhere to the plants was consequently improved this refer to that surface of passing nematodes, could facilitate spread of certain fungi have proper phytostimulant effects by the fungus, before penetrating the nematode cuticle and acting on the soil structure through commensalism immobilization of the nematode take place. The mechanisms with the plant roots. nematophagous A. oligospora which can live saprophytically as well as predatorily, forms sticky The fungus Dactylaria brochopaga proved to be an reticulate traps in the presence of living nematodes effective nematode antagonist and this may be due to kill and consume them (Scholler and Rubner, to the effect on nematodes population larvae through 1994). Timper and Brodie,(1993) found that production of traps which captured the nematode Arthrobotrys dactyloides, A. oligospora, Monacrosporium larvae, dissolving its outer culticle and then digesting ellipsosporim and M. cionopagum, fungi killed most of the inner contents of the victim (Aboul-Eid et al., the Pratylenchus penetrans adults and juveniles added 2002). to the fungus cultures.

  • Phylogenomic Evolutionary Surveys of Subtilase Superfamily Genes in Fungi
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Phylogenomic evolutionary surveys of subtilase superfamily genes in fungi Received: 22 September 2016 Juan Li, Fei Gu, Runian Wu, JinKui Yang & Ke-Qin Zhang Accepted: 28 February 2017 Subtilases belong to a superfamily of serine proteases which are ubiquitous in fungi and are suspected Published: 30 March 2017 to have developed distinct functional properties to help fungi adapt to different ecological niches. In this study, we conducted a large-scale phylogenomic survey of subtilase protease genes in 83 whole genome sequenced fungal species in order to identify the evolutionary patterns and subsequent functional divergences of different subtilase families among the main lineages of the fungal kingdom. Our comparative genomic analyses of the subtilase superfamily indicated that extensive gene duplications, losses and functional diversifications have occurred in fungi, and that the four families of subtilase enzymes in fungi, including proteinase K-like, Pyrolisin, kexin and S53, have distinct evolutionary histories which may have facilitated the adaptation of fungi to a broad array of life strategies. Our study provides new insights into the evolution of the subtilase superfamily in fungi and expands our understanding of the evolution of fungi with different lifestyles. To survive, fungi depend on their ability to harvest nutrients from living or dead organic materials. The eco- logical diversification of fungi is profoundly affected by the array of enzymes they secrete to help them obtain such nutrients. Thus, the differences in their secreted enzymes can have a significant impact on their abilities to colonize plants and animals1. Among these enzymes, a superfamily of serine proteases named subtilases, ubiq- uitous in fungi, is suspected of having distinct functional properties which allowed fungi adapt to different eco- logical niches.

The differentiation of similar structures in saprotrophic fungi to penetrate dead plant biomass has seldom been investigated and has been reported only in the model fungus Podospora anserina. Here, we report on the ability of many saprotrophs from a large range of taxa to produce appressoria on cellophane. Most Ascomycota and Basidiomycota were able to form appressoria. In contrast, none of the three investigated Mucoromycotina was able to differentiate such structures. The ability of filamentous fungi to differentiate appressoria no longer belongs solely to pathogenic or mutualistic fungi, and this raises the question of the evolutionary origin of the appressorium in Eumycetes. Keywords: appressorium; infection cushion; penetration; biomass degradation; saprotrophic fungi; Eumycetes; cellophane 1. Introduction Accessing and degrading biomass are crucial processes for heterotrophic organisms such as fungi. Nowadays, fungi are famous biodegraders that are able to produce an exhaustive set of biomass- degrading enzymes, the Carbohydrate Active enzymes (CAZymes) allowing the potent degradation of complex sugars such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and the more recalcitrant lignin polymer [1]. Because of their importance for industry and biofuel production in particular, many scientific programs worldwide aim at mining this collection of enzymes in fungal genomes and at understanding fungal lignocellulosic plant biomass degradation.

Mycosphere 9(1), 155–168, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/9/1/5 Abstract The family Orbiliaceae is characterized by small, yellowish, sessile to sub-stipitate apothecia, inoperculate asci and asymmetrical globose to fusoid ascospores. Morphological and phylogenetic studies were carried out on new collections of Orbiliaceae from Thailand and revealed Hyalorbilia erythrostigma, Hyalorbilia inflatula, Orbilia stipitata sp. nov., Orbilia leucostigma and Orbilia caudata. Our new species is confirmed to be divergent from other Orbiliaceae species based on morphological examination and molecular phylogenetic analyses of ITS and LSU sequence data. Descriptions and figures are provided for the taxa which are also compared with allied taxa. Key words – apothecia – discomycetes – inoperculate – phylogeny – taxonomy Introduction The family Orbiliaceae was established by Nannfeldt (1932). Previously, this family has been treated as a member of Leotiomycetes (Korf 1973, Spooner 1987) and Eriksson et al. (2003) transferred this family into a new class Orbiliomycetes. The recent studies on this class include Yu et al. (2011), Guo et al.

Scholler, G. Hagedorn & A. Rubner (1999). A reevaluation of predatory orbiliaceous fungi. II. A new generic concept. - Sydowia 51(1): 89-113. A new genus concept is proposed for predatory anamorphic Orbiliaceae in which the trapping device is the main morphological criterion for the delimitation of the genera. Molecular, ecological, physiological, biological, and further mor- phological features are taken into account as well. Following the groups identified by Hagedorn & Scholler (1999), these predatory fungi are divided into four genera: Arthrobotrys Corda forming adhesive networks, Drechslerella Subram. forming constricting rings, Dactylellina M. Morelet forming stalked adhesive knobs, and Gamsylella gen. nov. for species producing adhesive columns and unstalked knobs. Eighty-two species are accepted, for 51 of which new combinations are proposed.
