| Summary: | We
will discuss fungal communication in the context
of fundamental biological functions including
mating, growth, morphogenesis, and the regulation
of fungal virulence determinants. We will
address intraspecies but also interkingdom
signaling by systematically discussing the
sender of the message, the molecular message, and
receiver. Analyzing communication shows the
close coevolution of fungi with organisms
present in their environment giving insights
into multispecies communication. A better
understanding of the molecular mechanisms
underlying microbial communication will promote
our understanding of the “fungal
communicome.” |
