The mitochondrial genome of , strain RCEF500, was sequenced on the NovaSeq 6000 and the Nanopore Sequencer, and annotated. The genome is 59,014 bp in length, encoding 15 conserved protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 rRNA genes and 23 tRNA genes. The nucleotide composition of mitochondrial genome was 38.

Phosphate-solubilizing fungi (PSF) generally enhance available phosphorus (P) released from soil, which contributes to plants' P requirement, especially in P-limiting regions. In this study, two PSF, TalA-JX04 and AspN-JX16, were isolated from the rhizosphere soil of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) widely distributed in P-deficient areas in China and identified as Talaromyces aurantiacus and Aspergillus neoniger, respectively. The two PSF were cultured in potato dextrose liquid medium with six types of initial pH values ranging from 6.

Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed the genetic structure of Isaria cicadae in three regions using ISSR markers, finding high genetic diversity across populations, with Jingtingshan having the highest.
  • UPGMA clustering indicated that the populations were polyphyletic, with no clear lineage related to geography, but different sampling periods of Jingtingshan showed notable temporal differences.
  • Genetic differentiation was significant with a G value of 0.2153 and low gene flow at 0.9110, suggesting that these factors contribute to the genetic variation observed in I. cicadae populations affecting cicada nymphs.

A total of 622 isolates of Beauveria bassiana collected from 13 provinces in northern China were divided into 13 provincial subpopulations, and 568 of the 622 isolates belonging to 8 insect orders and Araneida, whose hosts could be indentified to order level, were divided into 9 host order subpopulations, with the genetic diversity and population genetic structure of the B. bassiana in northern China analyzed by using ISSR (inter-simple sequence repeat) technique. All the diversity indices showed that the B.

White muscardine caused by Beauveria bassiana is an important factor affecting sericulture. In the present study, a total of 124 B. bassiana isolates were obtained from the silkworm cadavers, rearing rooms and appliances, surrounding mulberry orchards, pine plantations, and croplands in Jingxian County of south Anhui and Qishan County of southwest Anhui.
