This paper reports a fatal outbreak of Nannizziopsis arthrosporioides in geckos linked to a breeding colony after introducing an infected gecko from overseas.

DESS (DMSO/EDTA/saturated NaCl) kept DNA at room temperature in animals, seagrasses and a brown alga, even after evaporating from bird muscle, but dissolves gastropod shells and holothurian ossicles.

The paper identifies a Clavicipitaceous fungus causing lethal mycosis in two frog species, marking the first evidence of such fungi affecting vertebrates.

The paper develops an image analysis system to quantify mycelial growth traits in Schizophyllum commune and identifies strain-specific responses to environmental conditions.

The paper analyzes the genetic diversity of Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, showing the European population was founded by two divergent haplotypes with adaptive potential.

The paper reports on a crowdsourced project analyzing ash dieback fungus data, revealing insights into its genome and biology through community contributions.
