Item Application of a formulation of the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans in the control of cattle gastrointestinal nematodiosis(World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2007-09) Dias, Anderson S.; Araújo, Jackson V.; Campos, Artur K.; Braga, Fabio R.; Fonseca, Thiago A.The viability of a formulation of Duddingtonia flagrans was assessed in the control of parasite gastrointestinal nematodes of cattle. Two groups (A and B) of eight crossbred Holstein × Zebu cattle, approximately one year old, were placed in Brachiaria decumbens pasture. Each animal in group B (treated) received orally 20 g sodium alginate pellets containing mycelial mass of the D. flagrans fungus, while the animals in the group A (control) received pellets without fungus for seven months, starting in March 2005. The egg per gram of feces counting the gastrointestinal nematodes showed a difference (P < 0.05) in the treated group in June, July and August, with reductions of 58% (June), 47% (July) and 51% (August) compared to the control group. The infective larvae recovered in the pastures collected up to 20 cm from distance of the fecal dung in group B differed (P < 0.01) from the larvae recovered in group A. At the end of the experimental period, the animals in group B presented a greater weight gain (P < 0.01) compared to the untreated group (A). The treatment of cattle with pellets containing the D. flagrans nematophagous fungus, at the dose and duration used was effective in controlling the infective larvae of gastrointestinal nematodes of cattle.Item In vitro predatory activity of the fungi Duddingtonia flagrans, Monacrosporium thaumasium, Monacrosporium sinense and Arthrobotrys robusta on Ancylostoma ceylanicum third-stage larvae(Veterinary Microbiology, 2010-05-03) Braga, Fabio R.; Silva, André R.; Carvalho, Rogério O.; Araújo, Jackson V.; Guimarães, Pedro Henrique G.; Fujiwara, Ricardo T.; Frassy, Luiza N.The potential role of companion animals as reservoirs for zoonotic diseases has been recognised as a significant public health problem worldwide. Ancylostoma ceylanicum is the only ancylostomatidae species known for infecting human beings. This article aimed to compare the predatory capacity of predatory fungi isolates Duddingtonia flagrans (AC001), Monacrosporium thaumasium (NF34), Monacrosporium sinense (SF53) and Arthrobotrys robusta (I31) on A. ceylanicum infectious larvae (L3) in a 2% water–agar plate. There was no predatory capacity variation among the fungi tested (P > 0.05) over the 7-day period experimental assay. When compared to the control (without fungi), there was a significant reduction (P < 0.05) of 95.6%, 85.1%, 87.4% and 90.2% on the A. ceylanicum L3 mean recovered from treatments with isolates AC001, NF34, SF53 and I31, respectively. Regarding linear regression coefficients, negative values were noted for treatments, therefore indicating A. ceylanicum non-predated larvae reduction over 7 days. In this work, all predatory fungi isolates were efficient at capturing and destroying in vitro the A. ceylanicum L3; therefore being able to be used as biological controllers of such nematode.Item Predatory activity of the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans on horse cyathostomin infective larvae(Tropical Animal Health and Production, 2010-03-07) Braga, Fabio R.; Araújo, Jackson V.; Silva, André. R.; Carvalho, Rogério O.; Araujo, Juliana M.; Ferreira, Sebastião R.; Benjamin, Laércio A.This work was performed to determine the predatory capacity in vitro of the nematophagous fungus Duddingtonia flagrans (isolate AC001) on cyathostomin infective larvae of horse (L3). The experimental assay was carried out on plates with 2% water-agar (2% WA). In the treated group, each plate contained 1.000 L3 and 1.000 conidia of the fungus. The control group without fungus only contained 1.000 L3 in the plates. Ten random fields (4 mm diameter) were examined per plate of treated and control groups, every 24 h for seven days under an optical microscope (10× and 40× objective lens) for non-predated L3 counts. After 7 days, the non-predated L3 were recovered from the Petri dishes using the Baermann method. The interaction there was a significant reduction (p < 0.01) of 93.64% in the cyathostomin L3 recovered. The results showed that the D. flagrans is a potential candidate to the biological control of horse cyathostomin L3.Item Interaction and ovicidal activity of nematophagous fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia on Taenia saginata eggs(Experimental Parasitology, 2008-12-25) Araújo, Juliana M.; Araújo, Jackson V.; Braga, Fabio R.; Carvalho, Rogério O.; Silva, André R.; Campos, Artur K.The ovicidal activity of the nematophagous fungi Pochonia chlamydosporia (isolates VC1 and VC4), Duddingtonia flagrans (isolate AC001) and Monacrosporium thaumasium (isolate NF34) on Taenia saginata eggs was evaluated under laboratory conditions. T. saginata eggs were plated on 2% water-agar with fungal isolates and controls without fungus and examined after 5, 10 and 15 days. At the end of the experiment P. chlamydosporia showed ovicidal activity against T. saginata eggs (p < 0.05), mainly for internal egg colonization with results of 12.8% (VC1) and 2.2% (VC4); 18.1% (VC1) and 7.0% (VC4); 9.76% (VC1) and 8.0% (VC4) at 5, 10 and 15 days, respectively. The other fungi showed only lytic effect without morphological damage to the eggshell. Results demonstrated that P. chlamydosporia was effective in vitro against T. saginata eggs unlike the other fungi.Item Biological control of infective larvae of Ancylostoma spp. in beach sand(Revista Iberoamericana de Micología, 2013-05-23) Mello, Ingrid Ney Kramer de; Braga, Fabio R.; Monteiro, Thalita S.Avelar; Freitas, Leandro G.; Araujo, Juliana M.; Soares, Filippe E.Freitas; Araújo, Jackson V.Geohelminths are parasites that stand out for their prevalence and wide distribution, depending on the soil for their transmission. The aim of this work was to evaluate the predatory capacity of the fungal isolate of the genus Duddingtonia (CG768) on third stage larvae (L3) of Ancylostoma spp. in beach sand under laboratory conditions. In the assay A five treatment groups and 1 control group were formed. The treatment groups contained 5000, 10,000, 15,000, 20,000 or 25,000 chlamydospores of the fungal isolate and 1000 Ancylostoma spp. L3 in pots containing 30 g of sand. The control group (without fungus) contained only 1000 Ancylostoma spp. L3 and distilled water in pots with 30 g of sand. Evidence of predatory activity was observed at the end of 15 days, where we observed the following percentages of reduction of L3: Group 1 (4.5%); Group 2 (24.5%); Group 3 (59.2%); Group 4 (58.8%); Group 5 (63%). However, difference was noted (p < 0.01) only at concentrations 15,000, 20,000 and 25,000 in relation to control group. In the assay B two groups were formed in Petri dishes of 9 cm in diameter containing agar water 2% medium. In the treated group, each Petri dish contained 500 Ancylostoma spp. L3 and 5 g of sand containing the isolate CG 768 at a concentration of 25,000 chlamydospores/g of sand, and the control group (without fungus) contained only 500 L3. At the end of 7 days the non-predation L3 of Petri dishes using the method of Baermann were recovered. Difference (p < 0.01) between groups on reducing the average number of Ancylostoma spp. L3 (percent reduction of 84%) was observed. The results of this study confirm earlier work on the efficiency of the Duddingtonia genus in the control of Ancylostoma spp. infective larvae.Item Observação in vitro da ação dos isolados fúngicos Duddingtonia flagrans, Monacrosporium thaumasium e Verticillium chlamydosporium sobre ovos de Ascaris lumbricoides (Lineu, 1758)(Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2007-02-08) Braga, Fábio R.; Araújo, Jackson V.; Campos, Artur K.; Carvalho, Rogério O.; Silva, André R.; Tavela, Alexandre O.; Maciel, Alessandro S.Observou-se a ação in vitro dos fungos nematófagos Duddingtonia flagrans, Monacrosporium thaumasium e Verticillium chlamydosporium sobre ovos de Ascaris lumbricoides. Após sete, dez e quatorze dias de interação, o fungo promissor a ser utilizado no controle biológico de Asaris lumbricoides foi o Verticillium chlamydosporium (26-30%). Os outros fungos não foram satisfatórios.
