Significats de filamentous fungus en anglès

A system for regulated heterologous gene expression in the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum was established.

The filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger produces several endopolygalacturonases that are involved in the degradation of pectin.

The filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa is a model for investigating the mechanisms of somatic cell-to-cell communication and fusion.

However, further molecular biological research on this filamentous fungus is severely plateaued out due to the lack of genetic methods.

The filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger is widely exploited by the fermentation industry for the production of enzymes and organic acids, particularly citric acid.

The Aspergillus nidulans kinase gene is, thus, required for normal polarized growth at several stages of colony formation in the filamentous fungus A. nidulans.

Several homologous genes encoding proteins involved in regulating siderophore synthesis in fungi have been isolated, including the sre gene from the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa.
