Assignment 2

Maybe say something about the history of the fungus and its relationships to other fungi that have been described in the genus Acremonium (e.g., PMC 3065988). A few minor points: "saprotroph" not "saprophyte"; nuclear ITS region; watch your spelling- yello; pleaura, etc. Looks good otherwise. Medmyco (talk) 18:53, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

You can also talk about how the fungus interacts with animals and other organisms. Also talk about the different varieties of the fungus if they share any similarities or differences with Acremonium strictum; Also go into further detail about the relationship between Acremonium strictum and Helminthosporium solani. mayooran athithan 18:10, 26 October 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mayooran.athithan (talk • contribs)

Thank you for all the feedback! Wendyxie99 (talk) 11:41, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Assignment 3-Peer review

Hi, Wendy! Nice job on your article. It is really well organized, especially the plant and fungal interaction part. I think it would be a good idea to add a history section, where you can have a timeline of the synonyms, human infection cases and treatments, plant interactions, etc. I am looking forward to see your final article!

Great idea, I will definitely look into it, thank you! Wendyxie99 (talk) 11:42, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Friendly Sandbox Suggestions

Hi Wendyxie99! I really like where your article is going. It is clear, easy to read, and it looks like you've covered all the important topics. Just a few suggestions:

• Maybe make your introduction a bit more general (eg. leave out how the conidium grows, especially since this isn't discussed later in the article). I think you should definitely mention pathophysiology and plant parasitism in this section.
• Under identification, you might want to further describe the macroscopic characteristics of colonies in culture (these are mentioned in the introduction). You can also get this information from secondary sources, instead of primary sources, which Wikipedia tends to prefer (1,2).
• Maybe include more on biological and chemical control of A. strictum. I tried to search for this information myself, and didn't get very far, so I appreciate that this stuff might be difficult to find. I did find a secondary source which mentions that A. strictum can be disseminated along with crop seeds (1).

See you in class ☺ Czeer (talk) 07:13, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks Czeer! Awesome suggestions, I will continue editing my article! Wendyxie99 (talk) 11:42, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
