Pilze in aquatischen Ökosystemen
(2020-06)
Pilze sind phylogenetisch und funktionell vielfältige, allgegenwärtige Bestandteile fast aller Ökosysteme der Erde, einschließlich aquatischer Ökosysteme, die sich von hochmontanen Seen bis in den tiefen Ozean erstrecken. ...
A preliminary report of aquatic hyphomycetes isolated from Anzali lagoon (Gilan province, North of Iran)
* گزارش مقدماتی از هیفومیستهاي آبزي تالاب انزلی (استان گیلان)
(2019)
Aquatic hyphomycetes equipped with a rich array of extracellular enzymes are involved in bioremediation of anthropogenic pollutants, plastics, aromatic contaminants and petroleum hydrocarbons. The current study contributes ...
Collateral effects of microplastic pollution on aquatic microorganisms: An ecological perspective
(2018-12-05)
Microplastics (MP) provide a unique and extensive surface for microbial colonization in aquatic ecosystems. The formation of microorganism-microplastic complexes, such as biofilms, maximizes the degradation of organic ...
The contrasting roles of aquatic fungi and oomycetes in the degradation and transformation of polymeric organic matter
(2019)
Studies on the ecological role of fungi and, to a lesser extent, oomycetes, are receiving increasing attention, mainly due to their participation in the cycling of organic matter in aquatic ecosystems. To unravel their ...
Microplastics alter composition of fungal communities in aquatic ecosystems
(2017)
Despite increasing concerns about microplastic (MP) pollution in aquatic ecosystems, there is insufficient knowledge on how MP affect fungal communities. In this study, we explored the diversity and community composition ...
Isolation of Fungi and Bacteria Associated with the Guts of Tropical Wood-Feeding Coleoptera and Determination of Their Lignocellulolytic Activities
(2015-08)
The guts of beetle larvae constitute a complex system where relationships among fungi, bacteria, and the insect host occur. In this study, we collected larvae of five families of wood-feeding Coleoptera in tropical forests ...
Highly diverse fungal communities in carbon-rich aquifers of two contrasting lakes in Northeast Germany
(2019-10)
Fungi are an important component of microbial communities and are well known for their ability to decompose refractory, highly polymeric organic matter. In soils and aquatic systems, fungi play an important role in carbon ...
Early diverging lineages within Cryptomycota and Chytridiomycota dominate the fungal communities in ice-covered lakes of the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica
(2017-11)
Antarctic ice-covered lakes are exceptional sites for studying the ecology of aquatic fungi under conditions of minimal human disturbance. In this study, we explored the diversity and community composition of fungi in five ...
A New Parasitic Chytrid, Staurastromyces oculus (Rhizophydiales, Staurastromycetaceae fam. nov.), Infecting the Freshwater Desmid Staurastrum sp.
(2017-08)
Chytrids are a diverse group of ubiquitous true zoosporic fungi. The recent molecular discovery of a large diversity of undescribed chytrids has raised awareness on their important, but so far understudied ecological role ...
Aquatic fungi: targeting the forgotten in microbial ecology
(2016-06)
Fungi constitute important and conspicuous components of aquatic microbial communities, but their diversity and functional roles remain poorly characterized. New methods and conceptual frameworks are required to accurately ...
