The paper identifies genes involved in the fungal response to a copper-zinc fungicide using high-throughput screens and transcriptomics, showing limited overlap between the two methods.

The paper identifies a transcription factor in Rhodotorula toruloides that specifically inhibits glucose-mediated repression of disaccharide utilization, revealing a tailored carbon catabolite repression mechanism.

This study identifies genetic mechanisms controlling temperature-dependent germination in the fungal thermophile Thermothelomyces thermophilus through insertional mutagenesis and validation of zinc transporter role.

The paper constructs a barcoded insertional mutant library in Trichoderma atroviride to enable high-throughput functional genomics in filamentous fungi.

The paper identifies NUC-1 as a bifunctional transcription factor regulating phosphate starvation response in Neurospora crassa, with NUC-3 acting as a brake on the response during prolonged starvation.

The paper uses RNA sequencing and DNA affinity purification sequencing to study the sulfur starvation response in Neurospora crassa, revealing CYS-3's role in regulating sulfur metabolism and related pathways.
