Aphanomyces Astaci

	Aphanomyces Astaci ''Aphanomyces'' is a genus of water moulds. As of 2003 there were about 45 described species.Grünwald, N. J. and C. J. Coyne, edProceedings of the Second International ''Aphanomyces'' Workshop.Pasco, Washington, June 17–18, 2003. USDA ARS. Many of these water moulds are known as economically important pathogens of species of plants and animals, including fish, crustaceans, and agricultural crop plants. ''Aphanomyces'' water moulds are "one of the most important yield-limiting factors in production of legumes and sugarbeet." Some of these water moulds are host-specific, such as '' A. iridis'', which only infects irises. Others can infest several hosts, such as '' A. euteiches'', which grows on several legumes. The disease that manifests in plants infected with these water moulds is sometimes known simply as ''Aphanomyces'' root rot or common root rot. Species include: '' Aphanomyces acinetophagus'' '' Aphanomyces americanus'' '' Aphanomyces amphigynus'' '' Aphanomyces ap ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
picture info	Crayfish Plague Crayfish plague (''Aphanomyces astaci'') is a water mold that infects crayfish, most notably the European ''Astacus'' which dies within a few weeks of being infected. When experimentally tested, species from Australia, New Guinea and Japan were also found to be susceptible to the infection. History Crayfish plague first arrived in Europe in Italy in 1859, either with imported crayfish from North America, or in ballast water discharge. After its original introduction in Italy in 1860, it spread quickly through Europe and was discovered in Sweden in 1907, in Spain in 1972, in Norway in 1971, in Great Britain in 1981, in Turkey in 1984 and in Ireland in 1987. In 1959, to bolster dwindling stocks of native crayfish, the signal crayfish was introduced to Sweden. The signal crayfish was known to be resistant, and it was not recognised at that time that it was a carrier of the disease. After 150 years of contact, no resistance has been discovered in native European crayfish. This spec ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Mycelia Mycelium (plural mycelia) is a root-like structure of a fungus consisting of a mass of branching, thread-like hyphae. Fungal colonies composed of mycelium are found in and on soil and many other substrates. A typical single spore germinates into a monokaryotic mycelium, which cannot reproduce sexually; when two compatible monokaryotic mycelia join and form a dikaryotic mycelium, that mycelium may form fruiting bodies such as mushrooms. A mycelium may be minute, forming a colony that is too small to see, or may grow to span thousands of acres as in ''Armillaria''. Through the mycelium, a fungus absorbs nutrients from its environment. It does this in a two-stage process. First, the hyphae secrete enzymes onto or into the food source, which break down biological polymers into smaller units such as monomers. These monomers are then absorbed into the mycelium by facilitated diffusion and active transport. Mycelia are vital in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems for their role in t ...
