Fungi guru comparative genomic and transcriptomic resource for the Fungi Kingdom
Computational and structural biotechnology journal, 2020Co-Authors: Jolyn Jia Jia Lim, Jace Koh, Jia Rong Moo, Erielle Marie Fajardo Villanueva, Dhira Anindya Putri, Yuen Shan Lim, Wei Song Seetoh, Sriya Mulupuri, Nhi Le Uyen Nguyen, Rinta RejiAbstract:The Fungi Kingdom is composed of eukaryotic heterotrophs, which are responsible for balancing the ecosystem and play a major role as decomposers. They also produce a vast diversity of secondary metabolites, which have antibiotic or pharmacological properties. However, our lack of knowledge of gene function in Fungi precludes us from tailoring them to our needs and tapping into their metabolic diversity. To help remedy this, we gathered genomic and gene expression data of 19 most widely-researched Fungi to build an online tool, Fungi.guru, which contains tools for cross-species identification of conserved pathways, functional gene modules, and gene families. We exemplify how our tool can elucidate the molecular function, biological process and cellular component of genes involved in various biological processes, by identifying a secondary metabolite pathway producing gliotoxin in Aspergillus fumigatus, the catabolic pathway of cellulose in Coprinopsis cinerea and the conserved DNA replication pathway in Fusarium graminearum and Pyricularia oryzae. The tool is available at www.Fungi.guru.

An ethnobotanical research in Şanlıurfa central district and attached Villages (Turkey)
NISCAIR-CSIR India, 2020Co-Authors: Kaya, Ömer Faruk, Dağlı Mehmet, Çelik, Hatice TosyagülüAbstract:7-23The objective of present study is to identify the plants traditionally utilized by local communities, who reside at the rural areas attached to Central District of Şanlıurfa located in Southeast Anatolia Region, for various purposes, and to reveal the significant of such use in terms of ethnobotany. The study conducted in this respect identified 137 taxa of 87 genera from 47 families (86 species, 34 sub-species, and 17 varieties), 21 of them are cultigens. 1 taxon is from Terfeziaceae of Ascomycota division of Fungi Kingdom, while the others are from Gymnospermae and Angiospermae sub-division of Spermatophyte division from the Plantae Kingdom. In general, local community utilizes taxa identified in field of study as follows: 56 taxa as food, 37 as medicinal purposes, 5 for belief, 5 for pests, 4 as household goods, 3 as seasoning, 3 as ornaments, 3 as cosmetics, 2 as beverages, 2 as knick-knack, 2 as fuel, 2 as building materials, 1 as dulling, 1 as canopy, 1 as aphrodisiac, 1 as clarifying, 1 as repellent, 1 as doddle, 1 as preventive and 1 as aroma. Moreover, 11 taxa are not utilized, but 7 of them are known by their local names and 4 with their harmful effects

the Fungi Kingdom heterogeneity of physiological biochemical properties and closeness to plants animals and prokaryotes
Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology, 2001Co-Authors: E P FeofilovaAbstract:This review analyzes the current taxonomy of Fungi whose criteria are based on a range of episemantic molecules. In this context, data on the chemical composition of fungal cells (membrane lipids, cytosolic carbohydrates, etc.) are considered in comparison with their counterparts found in higher eukaryotes and prokaryotes. Modern theories explaining the origin of Fungi and their similarity to plants, animals, and bacteria are discussed. The biochemical criteria used in this work supported the division of Fungi into Eumycota and Neomycota. The latter division, especially Basidiomycota, are more closely related to plants. The heterogeneity of the Kingdom Fungi is underlined, the existence of Oomycota as a separate entity is supported, and the theory of the primitive nature of fungal cells is criticized from the viewpoint of biochemical adaptation.
