Published in 2020 at "Journal of Microbiology"

DOI: 10.1007/s12275-021-0347-x

Abstract: Aspergillus fumigatus is a well-known opportunistic pathogen that causes invasive aspergillosis (IA) infections with high mortality in immunosuppressed individuals. Morphogenesis, including hyphal growth, conidiation, and cell wall biosynthesis is crucial in A. fumigatus pathogenesis. Based… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "PLoS ONE"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0216092

Abstract: The fungus Aspergillus fumigatus is a ubiquitous opportunistic human pathogen capable of causing a life-threatening disease called invasive aspergillosis, or IA, with an associated 40–90% mortality rate in immunocompromised patients. Of the approximately 250 species… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "International journal of medicinal mushrooms"

DOI: 10.1615/intjmedmushrooms.2022046732

Abstract: This study aimed to increase the yield of Cordyceps militaris intracellular polysaccharide (IPS) by adding elicitors. By comparing the effects of different elicitors on the IPS yield, three polysaccharide elicitors with significant promoting effect were… read more here.
