Fungi occupy diverse environments where they are constantly challenged by stressors such
as extreme pH, temperature, UV exposure, and nutrient deprivation. Nitrogen is an essential …

In host–pathogen interactions, efficient pathogen nutrition is a prerequisite for successful
colonization and fungal fitness. Filamentous fungi have a remarkable capability to adapt and …

GATA transcription factors are a group of DNA binding proteins broadly distributed in
eukaryotes. The GATA factors DNA binding domain is a class IV zinc finger motif in the form …

The soilborne filamentous fungus Trichoderma virens is a biocontrol agent with a well-
known ability to produce antibiotics, parasitize pathogenic fungi, and induce systemic …

The GATA-binding transcription factors comprise a protein family whose members contain
either one or two highly conserved zinc finger DNA-binding domains. Members of this group …

The DNA-binding domains of eucaryotic GATA factors comprise a four-cysteine Zn finger
and an adjacent basic region. Fungal GATA factors regulate nitrogen metabolism, light …

Serine proteases are highly conserved among fungi and considered to play a key role in
different aspects of fungal biology. These proteases can be involved in development and …

Trichoderma harzianum species are well known as biocontrol agents against important
fungal phytopathogens. Mycoparasitism is one of the strategies used by this fungus in the …

Myriad biological processes are dynamically regulated in response to environmental cues.
Transcriptional gene regulation is of fundamental importance, and regulatory mechanisms …

The genes coding for white collar‐1 and white collar‐2 (wc‐1 and wc‐2) have been isolated
previously, and their products characterized as Zn‐finger transcription factors involved in the …
