One of the exciting movements in microbial sciences has been a refocusing and
revitalization of efforts to mine the fungal secondary metabolome. The magnitude of …

Fungi form a major and diverse component of most ecosystems on Earth. They are both
micro and macroorganisms with high and varying functional diversity as well as great …

The global environment is dominated by various small exotic substances, known as
secondary metabolites, produced by plants and microorganisms. Plants and fungi are …

Microbial interactions are expected to be major determinants of microbiome structure and
function. Although fungi are found in diverse microbiomes, their interactions with bacteria …

Aspergillus fumigatus is a ubiquitous saprophytic mold able to grow on a diversity of material
ranging from decayed organic matter in the environment to space station cupolas [1]. Yet this …

Microbial cells do not live in isolation in their environment, but rather they communicate with
each other using chemical signals. This sophisticated mode of cell-to-cell signalling, known …

Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) are important for protein function and regulate
multiple cellular processes and secondary metabolites (SMs) in fungi. Aspergillus species …

Microorganisms reside in diverse environmental communities where interactions become
indispensable due to close physical associations. These interactions are driven by chemical …

Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC) strains are devastating plant pathogens
distributed worldwide. The primary cell density–dependent gene expression system in …

Small-molecule signaling is one major mode of communication within the polymicrobial
consortium of soil and rhizosphere. While microbial secondary metabolite (SM) production …
