• Abstract

  In this project we propose to study zoosporic fungi (sensu stricto and sensu lato) of the "Mosaico de Unidades de Conservação Juréia-Itatins", an important Atlantic Forest area of the south coast of São Paulo State, which is extremely rich in flora, fauna and microbiota. Although many species of these groups are decomposers, especially in cellulosic, keratinous and chitinous substrates in…

  Zoosporic fungi (sensu stricto and sensu lato) from "Mosaico de Unidades de Conservação Juréia-Itatins", São Paulo State, Brazil: morphological and molecular diversity, AP.R

• Abstract

  The Chytridiomycota representatives have been occurred on the planet for at least 400 million years, according the fossil data. They have cosmopolitan distribution and a crucial role in decomposition and parasitism process in the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, where they are frequently observed as parasites of algae, cyanobacteria, macrophytes, invertebrates, amphibians, fungi and oo…

• Isolation, purification, identification and preservation of the zoosporic fungi (sensu stricto and sensu lato) from the water bodies of the Mosaico de Unidades de Conservação Juréia-Itatins, São Paulo State, Brazil, BP.TT

• Abstract

  Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum) originating in North America and introduced in Brazil in the 40s, is currently an example of success in farming of fish in cold and mountainous regions of the country. However, problems with parasites have caused concern to fish farmers because pathogens affect the quality of fish and interfers in the cultivation system. Saprolegnosis, disease c…

• Abstract

  The traditional morphologic classification of the Chytridiomycota have been changing due to the availability of DNA sequences and investigation of differences in zoospore ultrastructural characters. Currently this phylum contains nine orders, with Rhizophydiales, Chytridiales and Cladochytriales representing the most diverse. The first two were intensively investigated in recent years in …

  Phylogenomic analysis of Cladochytriales (Chytridiomycota): a new approach to the zoosporic fungi, BE.EP.PD

• Abstract

  In the recent years there has been evidences that the morphological characteristics traditionally used in the classical taxonomy are not enough to support the monophyly of zoosporic fungi clades. Several morphological structures such as turbinate cells and operculum are no longer considered synapomorphic and it could have emerged in different moments during the evolutionary process. The a…
