Journal ArticleDOI

Recent Asian origin of chytrid fungi causing global amphibian declines

Simon J. O’Hanlon, +65 more
- 11 May 2018 - 
TL;DR: This article used whole-genome sequencing to solve the spatiotemporal origins of the most devastating panzootic to date, caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, a proximate driver of global amphibian declines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of initial pH on hydrogen production from cheese whey.

TL;DR: A modified Gompertz equation adequately described fermentative hydrogen production from cheese whey and found that lag phase times were much longer at acidic pHs than at alkaline pHs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of Culture Parameters on Biological Hydrogen Production by Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum ATCC 27021

TL;DR: In this article, various medium components (carbon and nitrogen sources, iron, inoculum size) and environmental factors (initial pH and the agitation speed) were evaluated for their effects on the rate and the yield of hydrogen production by Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cerato-ulmin, a hydrophobin secreted by the causal agents of Dutch elm disease, is a parasitic fitness factor.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that CU production is correlated with an altered phenotype and more hydrophobic and adherent yeast-like cells, and proposed that this hydrophobin acts as a parasitic fitness factor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation and characterization of the cerato-ulmin toxin gene of the Dutch elm disease pathogen, Ophiostoma ulmi.

TL;DR: The hydrophobic protein cerato-ulmin (CU), produced by Ophiostoma ulmi, has been implicated in the pathogencity of this fungus on elm and shows significant sequence similarity to hydrophobins secreted by certain other fungi.
