This study identifies SclB as a key transcription factor regulating the transition from vegetative to asexual growth in Aspergillus nidulans by controlling gene expression of conidiation regulators.

This study identifies diterpenoids as chemical attractants for C. graminicola oval conidia and shows that the CgSte3 receptor mediates their sensing, enabling root infection.

This study identifies a molecular circuit between MsnA and VelB in Aspergillus nidulans that coordinates stress responses with fungal development and secondary metabolism.
