This study reported intra-familial transmission of Arthroderma benhamiae among Canadian porcupines in a Japanese zoo, with genetic sequences previously undocumented in Japan or the GenBank database.

This article reviews the impact of natural fungal pathogens on laboratory animal research and reports no new results, calling attention to infection risks with dermatophytes, Candida, and pneumonia in immunocompromised rodents.

In this study, researchers investigated how rhizosphere microorganisms, including specific bacteria and fungi, can regulate plant root architecture in acidic red soils by mechanisms such as hormone production and phosphorus solubilization, potentially enhancing soil productivity.

This study found that inoculating tea plants with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi significantly improved growth, root morphology, and leaf nutrient levels, with Claroideoglomus etunicatum showing the most substantial effects.

This study found that arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus inoculation and shading improved tea seedlings' growth, nutrient absorption, and stress resistance by enhancing root biomass and regulating phytohormone levels and gene expression.

This study reported that the Pamona indigenous community near Lake Poso, Indonesia, relies on 21 macrofungi species for diverse uses, including food and medicine, helping to address malnutrition and disease prevention.

In this study, Bacillus subtilis strain ALC_02 was observed to enhance phosphorus acquisition in phosphorus-limited dwarf tomato plants by promoting root and root hair growth, with potential implications for developing effective bacterial P biofertilizers.

This article covers the classification and roles of various microbes, such as those involved in fermentations and environmental processes, but it does not provide new research results.

This source discusses how the skin mycobiome, dominated by Malassezia fungi, may provide a unique niche that can be disrupted by environmental changes, potentially leading to the fungal pathogen C. auris overtaking Malassezia and predisposing individuals to severe infections.

This study observed Malassezia hyphae in the keratotic plugs of healthy individuals, which contrasts with previous findings of these hyphae primarily in lesions of pityriasis versicolor patients.

This study identified Armillaria gallica and Armillaria cepistipes as the most common symbiotic species with Polyporus umbellatus in China, and reported genetic diversity among their genotypes.

This study found that biliverdin beta and delta, metabolites of heme, play a critical role in Pseudomonas aeruginosa iron acquisition and cooperative behaviors, which are crucial for the bacterium's long-term infection in cystic fibrosis patients, suggesting potential targets for new therapies.

This study found that the MsPG3-GFP fusion protein accumulates at the growing root hair tips in Medicago plants, suggesting its role in tip growth during symbiosis.

Fusarium sp. strain K-23 helps Arabidopsis plants grow better in salty soil by promoting root hair growth.

This study demonstrated that antigens from the skin bacterium Staphylococcus epidermidis can stimulate CD8+ T cells, which in turn enhance wound healing.

In this study, the researchers used the dual-flow-RootChip to show that Arabidopsis roots can locally adapt their hair development in response to asymmetric phosphate conditions.

This study found that the RpoN/RpoS pathway regulates gene expression in Borrelia burgdorferi, influencing its ability to persist in mammals and adapt to different hosts.

This study observed that extracellular ATP (eATP) levels outside Arabidopsis root cells vary inversely with the expression of AtAPY1 and AtAPY2 apyrases, suggesting these enzymes regulate eATP concentrations crucial for root growth.

This review examines factors influencing dermatophyte infection in companion animals, focusing on prevalence, clinical signs, pathogenesis, immune response, and the impact of cortisol and cytokines, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that treatment with Bacillus amyloliquefaciens UCMB5113 significantly increased root hair growth in half of the tested Arabidopsis thaliana accessions.

Candida auris uses the immune response to colonize hair follicles.

In this case report, researchers describe dermatophytosis, a fungal skin infection, in an 11-month-old female dog, highlighting the zoonotic nature of the disease that affects both animals and humans, especially in hot and humid climates.

This study found that the S. epidermidis A/C lineage is more pathogenic due to its metabolic and genomic versatility, which allows it to adapt quickly from a commensal to a pathogenic lifestyle.

This article reviews approaches to diagnosing and treating dermatophytosis and pityriasis versicolor, noting a significant change in the epidemiology of tinea capitis and highlighting the limitations of certain diagnostic techniques.

This study found that horses with inflammatory skin diseases had a higher prevalence of surface cocci and fungal poroconidia compared to those with healthy skin.

This review covers the epidemiology, causes, prevention, treatment, and prognosis of dermatophytoses and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that olorofim demonstrated potent in vitro and in vivo antifungal activity against dermatophytes, resolving skin lesions in a guinea pig model similar to clotrimazole, suggesting it may be a promising treatment for dermatophytosis.

This study reports the first identification of 'Candidatus Phytoplasma aurantifolia' in the invasive weed Eclipta prostrata in Taiwan, linked to symptoms such as branch proliferation and phyllody.
