This study sequenced the genomes of three Neoarthrinium moseri strains and characterized their metabolic potential, revealing high biosynthetic gene clusters and ecological versatility.

The paper introduces TU_MyCo-Vision, a deep learning tool for detecting 13 fungal morphotypes in bright-field images, showing strong performance on Aureobasidium pullulans and other fungal species.

The paper analyzes the microbiome of the endangered orchid Dactylorhiza traunsteineri, identifying key bacterial phyla and revealing metabolic potential in its rhizosphere.

The paper estimates bacterial diversity turnover in the Danube River, linking it to environmental factors and human impacts.

This study activates the dia biosynthetic gene cluster in Trichoderma reesei, identifying diaporthinic acid as the primary metabolite and elucidating the roles of key genes in its biosynthesis.

This paper activates the ilicicolin biosynthetic pathway in Trichoderma reesei to discover a novel antifungal compound, ilicicolin K, with similar antifungal activity to ilicicolin H.

FunOrder 2.0 automates the identification of co-evolved genes, improving speed and specificity over its semi-automated predecessor.

The paper introduces FunOrder, a tool that identifies essential biosynthetic genes in BGCs using computational molecular co-evolution, improving upon existing methods that struggle with distinguishing essential genes from gap genes.
