    Synchronization of oscillatory growth prepares fungal hyphae for fusion

    Valentin Wernet, Marius Kriegler ... Reinhard Fischer
    Fungal hyphae constantly undergo signal oscillations, comparable to a cell 'monologue' until they meet another hypha with which they then coordinate signal oscillations and transit into a cell-to-cell dialogue.

    Uniparental nuclear inheritance following bisexual mating in fungi

    Vikas Yadav, Sheng Sun, Joseph Heitman
    Discovery of a novel mode of sexual reproduction, termed pseudosexual reproduction, in fungi where both parents are required for mating but only one contributes to the meiotic progeny, similar to hybridogenesis in animals.

    Algal-fungal symbiosis leads to photosynthetic mycelium

    Zhi-Yan Du, Krzysztof Zienkiewicz ... Gregory M Bonito
    The capacity for symbiosis between photosynthetic microalgae and early diverging lineages fungi was demonstrated with microscopy and stable isotope exchange of carbon and nitrogen.

    Lipid transfer from plants to arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi

    Andreas Keymer, Priya Pimprikar ... Caroline Gutjahr
    Identification of two arbuscular mycorrhiza-specific lipid biosynthesis mutants and fatty acid transfer experiments reveal that host plant lipids are transferred to symbiotic fungi and needed for their development.

    Streptomyces exploration is triggered by fungal interactions and volatile signals

    Stephanie E Jones, Louis Ho ... Marie A Elliot
    Exploratory growth is a newly discovered mode of Streptomyces growth that it is stimulated by fungi, is pH responsive, and can be communicated to other – physically separated – streptomycetes through airborne compounds.

    A framework for community curation of interspecies interactions literature

    Alayne Cuzick, James Seager ... Kim E Hammond-Kosack
    A framework has been devised that enables global participation in the curation of publications on any topic involving two or more living organisms, ranging from microscopic to larger sizes, in their natural or artificial environments or ecosystems.

    The AP-2 complex has a specialized clathrin-independent role in apical endocytosis and polar growth in fungi

    Olga Martzoukou, Sotiris Amillis ... George Diallinas
    In filamentous fungi the AP-2 complex, which in mammals is an adaptor of clathrin-mediated endocytosis, is recruited to specific clathrin-independent apical endocytosis necessary for proper lipid maintenance and polar growth.

    Transparent soil microcosms for live-cell imaging and non-destructive stable isotope probing of soil microorganisms

    Kriti Sharma, Márton Palatinszky ... Elizabeth A Shank
    Two optically transparent substrates enable the exploration of the ecophysiology and spatiotemporal organization and activities of bacteria and fungi within heterogeneous soil-like environments.

    A FYVE zinc finger domain protein specifically links mRNA transport to endosome trafficking

    Thomas Pohlmann, Sebastian Baumann ... Michael Feldbrügge
    An endosomal component employs a novel PAM2-like motif to recruit a key RNA-binding protein, which explains how mRNAs and associated ribosomes are attached to endosomes during coupled transport.

    Secondary metabolites of Hülle cells mediate protection of fungal reproductive and overwintering structures against fungivorous animals

    Li Liu, Christoph Sasse ... Gerhard H Braus
    Xanthones produced by the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans protect its sexual structures from predation by arthropods.
