Tropical carpenter ants (Camponotus leonardi) are turned into zombie ants when infected by the parasitic fungus (Ophiocordyceps unilateralis). Infected ants become erratic and zombie-like, and are manipulated by the fungus into dying at a spot that provides optimal conditions for fungal reproduction. New research looks at altered behavior patterns in zombie ants in Thailand and shows how the fungus manipulates ant behavior.
Some fungi cause disease when they become human parasites. Two examples are fungi in the genera Candida and Trichophyton. 1  Candida are yeast that cause candidiasis, commonly called a âyeast infection.â The yeast can infect the mouth or the vagina (in females). Protozoa make humans sick when they become human parasites. 2  Trypanosoma protozoa cause Chagas disease and sleeping sickness. 3  Giardia protozoa cause giardiasis, and Plasmodium protozoa cause malaria. 4  Fungi cause three different types of human illness: poisonings, parasitic infections, and allergies.
