Fungal hyphae are among the most highly polarized cells. Hyphal polarized
growth is supported by tip-directed transport of secretory vesicles, which accumulate temporarily
in a stratified manner in an apical vesicle cluster, the Spitzenkörper. The exocyst complex
is required for tethering of secretory vesicles to the apical plasma membrane. We...

Plant pathogens secrete an arsenal of small secreted proteins (SSPs) acting as effectors that modulate host immunity to
facilitate infection. SSP-encoding genes are often located in particular genomic environments and show waves of concerted
expression at diverse stages of plant infection. To date, little is known about the regulation of...

Neurospora crassa has been for decades a principal model for filamentous
fungal genetics and physiology as well as for understanding
the mechanism of circadian clocks. Eukaryotic fungal and animal
clocks comprise transcription-translation-based feedback loops that
control rhythmic transcription of a substantial fraction of these transcriptomes,
yielding the changes in protein...

The filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa responds to light in complex ways. To thoroughly
study the transcriptional response of this organism to light, RNA-seq was used to analyze capped and
polyadenylated mRNA prepared from mycelium grown for 24 hr in the dark and then exposed to light for
0 (control) 15,...

Global change and its associated temperature increase has directly or indirectly changed the distributions of hosts and
pathogens, and has affected host immunity, pathogen virulence and growth rates. This has resulted in increased disease in
natural plant and animal populations worldwide, including scleractinian corals. While the effects of temperature increase...
