Relaciones hídricas en árboles del bosque tropical seco: el caso de Enterolobium cyclocarpum
(2011)
Las relaciones hídricas en árboles de Enterolobium cyclocarpum del Parque Nacional Santa Rosa, Costa Rica,
se estudiaron en diferentes momentos del curso diurno y a lo largo de dos ciclos fenológicos. La característica ...
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 ...
Microorganismos del corredor marino Isla del Coco-Galápagos: diversidad funcional y de especies
(2018)
El corredor marino Isla del Coco-Galápagos, en su conjunto, constituye un santuario para la protección de especies marinas en la región oriental del Pacífico Tropical. La alta biodiversidad de macroorganismos ha sido ...
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 ...
Notes on Dictyuchus species (Stramenopila, Oomycetes) from Anzali lagoon, Iran
(2018)
Nine Dictyuchus isolates were obtained from floating and decaying twigs and leaves in Anzali lagoon, Anzali County, Guilan province, Iran. They are interestingly distinguished from current Dictyuchus species by the presence ...
Dry-season leaf flushing of Enterolobium cyclocarpum (ear-pod tree): above- and belowground phenology and water relations
(2007-11)
Above- and belowground phenology and water relations of Enterolobium cyclocarpum Jacq. trees in the dry
forest of Santa Rosa National Park, Costa Rica were studied during two consecutive phenological cycles, from November ...
Richness of cultivable endophytic fungi along an altitudinal gradient in wet forests of Costa Rica
(2016-04)
We collected various plant species along an altitudinal gradient ranging from 400 to 2900 m in tropical wet forests of Costa Rica, isolated the associated endophytic fungi, and performed bioinformatic analyses to determine ...
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 ...
A Salinity Threshold Separating Fungal Communities in the Baltic Sea
(2019)
Salinity is a significant factor for structuring microbial communities, but little is known for aquatic fungi, particularly in the pelagic zone of brackish ecosystems. In this study, we explored the diversity and composition ...
Study of the diversity of culturable actinomycetes in the North Pacific and Caribbean coasts of Costa Rica
(2009)
In this study, 137 actinomycetes were isolated from subtidal marine sediments in the North Pacific and Caribbean coasts of Costa Rica. Bioinformatics analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences assigned the isolates to 15 ...
