TL;DR: Genomic comparisons revealed that reduction in genome size implied loss of redundant metabolic pathways, with maintenance of alternative routes in different species, and indicated a likely transfer event of hemagglutinin-coding DNA sequences from M. gallisepticum to M. synoviae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metarhizium anisopliae enzymes and toxins.
TL;DR: Some of the progress accumulated specially in M. anisopliae is focused on and an overview of the host infection process is given to help access more efficient strains from the biodiversity and to optimize formulation for large scale use of this efficient, economic and environmental safer form of insect plague control.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro assessment of Metarhizium anisopliae isolates to control the cattle tick Boophilus microplus
Ana Paula Guedes Frazzon,Itabajara da Silva Vaz Junior,Aoi Masuda,Augusto Schrank,Marilene Henning Vainstein +4 more
TL;DR: Isolates of M. anisopliae taken from experimentally infected ticks proved to be more pathogenic than fungus maintained on culture media and suggested that, in general, virus free isolates were more infective.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production and extraction of an extracellular lipase from the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae
TL;DR: In the presence of surfactants, the highest lipase activity occurred when SDS and Tween 80 were added after 50 h M. anisopliae growth, and the best temperature for lipase production was 32 °C.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The present study investigates further the population structure of clinical and environmental C. neoformans isolates from south Brazil and adds considerable new information to the few available data on ecology, molecular biology and epidemiology of the pathogen in the southern region of Brazil.
