Multi‐Omics Analyses Reveal Divergent Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Plant Biomass Conversion by Five Fungi Open
Fungal plant biomass conversion (FPBC) is of great importance to the global carbon cycle and has been increasingly applied for the production of biofuel and biochemicals from lignocellulose. However, the comprehensive understanding of rele…

Uncovering Sequence and Structural Characteristics of Fungal Expansin‐Related Proteins With Potential to Drive Substrate Targeting Open
Expansins loosen plant cell wall networks through disrupting non‐covalent bonds between cellulose microfibrils and matrix polysaccharides. Whereas expansins were first discovered in plants, expansin‐related proteins have since been identif…

Section-level genome sequencing and comparative genomics of <i>Aspergillus</i> sections <i>Cavernicolus</i> and <i>Usti</i> Open
The genus Aspergillus is diverse, including species of industrial importance, human pathogens, plant pests, and model organisms. Aspergillus includes species from sections Usti and Cavernicolus , which until recently were joined in section…

Identification of an a-factor-like pheromone secreted by the heterothallic ascomycete Aspergillus fumigatus Open
Members of the fungal kingdom serve as models for numerous cellular processes, among them sexuality.1 In heterothallic ascomycetes, mating-type systems ensure that only compatible isolates fuse to enter the sexual phase.2,3,4,5,6 This incl…
