A deadly fungus causing sporotrichosis in cats, potentially fatal and transmissible to humans, is now found in wild animals across South America. Researchers detected its DNA in mammals, birds, and reptiles killed on Brazilian roads, suggesting a new reservoir and urgent need for surveillance.
A new study reveals a deadly fungus causing sporotrichosis in cats is now found in wild animals across South America, including mammals, birds, and reptiles. This discovery highlights a potential new reservoir for the fungus, raising concerns for both animal and human health and emphasizing the need for better disease surveillance.
A report from Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew highlights how AI and digitisation are accelerating the identification and conservation of plant and fungi species, offering a crucial tool in the fight against extinction. Despite significant progress, vast numbers of species remain unanalysed, with climate change impacting flowering times and disrupting ecosystems.
Professor Liang Qianqian's seven years of research at Hexi University have resulted in "Longgu No. 1," Gansu's first independently bred button mushroom variety. This breakthrough addresses the industry's reliance on imported strains, offering improved protein content, higher yields, and disease resistance, while also driving local economic development and farmer training.
A new study mapped vast underground fungal networks, finding they could stretch 750 million times the Earth-Sun distance. These networks are vital for plant life and climate regulation but are threatened by agriculture, with cropland densities 47.3% lower than in wild ecosystems.

Mushrooms exposed to UV light are a good plant-based source of Vitamin D, but fish like salmon and tuna, and fortified foods like plant-based milks, yogurt, and orange juice, offer higher amounts. The article highlights salmon as a top source, providing over 80% of the daily requirement.
Mushrooms exposed to UV light are a good plant-based source of Vitamin D. Fish like salmon and tuna, and fortified foods such as plant-based milks, yogurt, and orange juice, offer higher levels of this essential nutrient, crucial for bone health and immunity.
