The physiological, biochemical, and morphological changes brought about by fungi in response to fungicides can undoubtedly bring diversity to fungi. strains TN (mating type genes , , and ) and CmFRQ-454 (mating type genes and ) were treated with non-lethal doses of fungicides amphotericin B, L-cysteine, terbinafine, and 5-fluorocytosine. The results showed that the treatment with amphotericin B, terbinafine, and 5-fluorocytosine promoted an increase in the relative content of clock protein CmFRQ ( FREQUENCY) in the mycelium of strain TN, while the high concentration of L-cysteine inhibited the expression of CmFRQ in strain TN.

In this study, a hierarchical network of transcriptional response to light in , one of the edible fungi, has been described on a genome-wide scale using dynamic transcriptome analysis. It was shown that light regulated the transcript of 1722 genes, making up 18% of the whole genome of .

Objective: To determine blue-light induced expression of S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase-like (sahhl) gene in fungus Mucor amphibiorum RCS1.
Methods: In the random process of PCR, a sequence of 555 bp was obtained from M. amphibiorum RCS1.

Blue light induced carotenoid accumulation in filamentous fungus- Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. The pigment particles were observed in the fungal mycelium by microscope after blue light irradiation. The pigmentation was not found in the fungal mycelium either cultured under dark condition or cultured in red light.

Proteins were obtained by ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration from the dry sample of Pleurotus eryngii. In terms of detection on local lesion host, these components were confirmed to be anti-TMV and their inhibition rates reach more than 70%, or even 99%. The protein named xb68Ab of MW 23.
