Fungi can cause devastating invasive infections, typically in immunocompromised patients. Treatment is complicated both by the evolutionary similarity between humans and fungi and by the frequent emergence of drug resistance. Studies in fungal pathog...
BACKGROUND: There is a pressing need to create innovative alternative treatment approaches considering the overuse of antifungal drugs causes the number of clinically isolated fluconazole-resistant species to increase. antimicrobial peptide (GmAMP)...
AIMS: C. albicans resistant strains have led to increasingly severe treatment challenges. Antimicrobial peptides with low resistance-inducing propensity for pathogens have been developed. A series of antimicrobial peptides de novo designed through ma...

Increasing fungicide dose tends to lead to better short-term control of plant diseases. However, high doses select more rapidly for fungicide resistant strains, reducing long-term disease control. When resistance is qualitative and complete-i.e. resi...
The fungal pathogen , is a serious threat to public health and is associated with bloodstream infections causing high mortality particularly in patients with serious medical problems. As this pathogen is generally resistant to all the available clas...
