| Abstract: |
| Entomopathogenic fungi are important biocontrol resources. The entomopathogenic fungi are used to control
agricultural pests, which has the advantages of not easy to produe resistance, but easy to cause epidemics of insect diseases,
ecological safety and environmental protection, etc. The promotion and application of entomopathogenic fungi to control pests
is a development trend of ecological agriculture in the future. The rapid development of contemporary sequencing technology
has promoted the research of fungal genomics, and has achieved significant results in the research fields such as wholegenome sequencing, phylogenetic genomics, comparative genomics, and multi-omics including transcriptomics, proteomics
and metabolomics analysis. This article reviews the latest genomics studies on the entomopathogenic fungi such as Beauveria
spp., Metarhizium spp., Ophiocordyceps sinensis, Cordyceps militaris etc., combined with the research work of our team to
make a summary, involving the use of genomics and multi-omics to jointly reveal the intra- and inter-species evolution of
entomopathogenic fungi, changes in host range, identification of effector proteins during infection, synthesis of fungal metabolites,
fungal infection mechanism, insect immune mechanism, and fungal-insect interaction mechanism, etc., and explores the future
development of entomopathogenic fungi genomics, which will provide scientific basis for future biological control applications. |
