Fungi: friends or foes—an outreach science initiative for the collection of airborne fungal spores by high school students [PDF]
Journal of Microbiology & Biology EducationFungi mostly reproduce through spores that are adapted for airborne dispersal; hence, fungal spores (and fungi) are found virtually everywhere. Fungi can be “friends or foes.” Our friends include fungi used in the food and biotech industries, fungi that ...

Seasonality in antarctic airborne fungal spores [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1997 Airborne fungal spores were monitored over periods of up to 131/2 months at three sites on Signy Island in the maritime Antarctic. Fungal spore concentrations in the air were much lower than in other parts of the world. Concentrations were very low during the austral winter but increased during the austral summer.

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2019 Fungal spores are biological molecules that are widespread in the indoor and outdoor air. Several types of the very common fungal spores are known as allergens, with the potential to cause respiratory illnesses by increasing the aggravation of asthma and

Asthma and the Diversity of Fungal Spores in Air
PLoS Pathogens, 2013 The diversity of fungal spores in air is vast ([1], [2], Figure 1), but research on asthma focuses on a handful of easily identified, culturable species. Ecologists are developing new tools to probe communities and identify the full complement of fungi in habitats.
