Elucidating patterns of fungal epiphyte and endophyte growth on a variety of carbon substrates

Creator:: Thapliyal, Mrinal
Abstract:: Coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii), a keystone species in the Pacific Northwest, relies on symbioses with microorganisms to obtain nutrients, potentially defend against pathogens, and perform a variety of other tasks. Two of the tree’s primary fungal symbionts are foliar epiphytes and endophytes, which reside on the exterior or...

Biosynthetic studies of fungal diterpene antibiotics

Creator:: Yao, Qingmei
Abstract:: The isoprenoid pathway is one of the major biosynthetic pathways of secondary metabolites. Isoprenoids with a C₂₀ skeleton are known as diterpenoids and are derived from the common precursor, geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP). This dissertation describes approaches to discover the diterpene synthase enzymes which provide the backbone structures for pleuromutilin and...

Copper tolerance in four fungal species

Creator:: Grable, Carl Ivan
Abstract:: This study was initiated to determine the tolerance to copper of Aspergillus niger, Stemphylium sarcinaeforme, Monilinia fructicola and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. Included were strains of the latter two fungi that were induced to tolerate relatively high levels of copper by continual culture on sublethal levels of the toxicant....

Fungal colonization of Douglas-fir sapwood

Creator:: Kang, Sung-Mo
Abstract:: The fungi that cause mold and stain of freshly sawn lumber result in millions of dollars in losses to the forest products industry. Stain and mold are typically prevented by either kiln drying or by application of a topical fungicide. While these treatments are effective, kiln drying is costly and...

Development of Computational, Visualization, and Molecular Tools for Fungal and Oomycete Community Ecology

Creator:: Foster, Zachary Stephen Longiaru
Abstract:: Oomycetes are an important group of organisms with a variety of ecological roles similar to fungi. Although many are well-studied plant pathogens known for their devastating effects on agricultural systems, most are little-studied saprobes and parasites of plants and animals in nearly every ecosystem on earth. The advent of affordable...

Characterization of Fungal Communities in Selected Wood Species by Field Exposure Tests

Creator:: Torres-Andrade, Paola A.
Abstract:: Fungi are the primary biological agents of wood deterioration and cause major economic losses of wood products globally. Wood in outdoor applications tends to remain wet for extended time periods, making it susceptible to fungal attack. Understanding the factors involved in fungal colonization of wood is important for developing improved...

Spalting Fungi : Genetic Identification, Material Interactions and Microscopical Characteristics of Extracted Pigments

Creator:: Vega Gutiérrez, Sarath Mercedes
Abstract:: Spalting fungi show strong potential as natural colorants on a variety of materials, specifically textiles and wood. Four species of spalting fungi are currently utilized in this manner: Scytalidium cuboideum, which produces a red pigment called draconin red, Scytalidium ganodermophthorum, that produces an unknown yellow pigment, and Chlorociboria aeruginosa and...

Toxicity of Fungal Pigments from Chlorociboria spp. and Scytalidium spp.

Creator:: Almurshidi, Badria H.
Abstract:: Commercial methodologies for producing fungal pigments are of worldwide interest due to the desire to move away from synthetic dyes. Chlorociboria species and Scytalidium species have been reported to produce sufficient yields of pigments for commercial production and have attracted special attention because of their use in spalted wood applications....
