Role of arthroconidia in biofilm formation byTrichosporon asahii

Sanae Kurakado et al.

Summary: High biofilm-producing strains of T. asahii exhibited abundant arthroconidia and hyphae, while low biofilm-producing strains mainly produced hyphae with few or no arthroconidia. The production of hyphae was increased by nitrogen-containing medium, and the production of arthroconidia was increased by nitrogen-deficient medium. Cells incubated under nitrogen-deficient conditions showed higher adherence to a polystyrene surface than those incubated in the presence of nitrogen, indicating that arthroconidia play a key role in biofilm formation.

Genetic Transformation in Cryptococcus Species

Ping Wang

Summary: Genetic transformation plays a crucial role in studying the biology of yeasts and fungi, and helps understand the virulence and drug resistance mechanisms of the pathogenic fungus Cryptococcus. Since the first attempt at DNA transformation in 1992, various methods have been developed to improve DNA introduction and gene disruption efficiency.
