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 ...

Allergenic fungal spores in the air of urban parks [PDF]
Aerobiologia, 2020 Urban green spaces, especially urban parks, are essential for the proper functioning of cities, but they can be a serious source of airborne fungal spores. Aerobiological monitoring was carried out in urban parks of different typology to estimate the

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.

Demulsification of crude oil-in-water emulsions by means of fungal spores. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The present feature describes for the first time the application of spores from Aspergillus sp. IMPMS7 to break out crude oil-in-water emulsions (O/W). The fungal spores were isolated from marine sediments polluted with petroleum hydrocarbons. The spores

Nutritional benefit of fungal spores for honey bee workers. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2020 The collection of fungal spores by honey bees, Apis mellifera, can be classified as active or passive, the latter when spores are associated with pollen, nectar or honey dew.

First Long-Time Airborne Fungal Spores Study in Dublin, Ireland (1978–1980)
Atmosphere, 2022 Ambient fungal spores within the atmosphere can contribute to a range of negative human, animal and plant health conditions and diseases. However, trends in fungal spore seasonality, species prevalence, and geographical origin have been significantly ...

Photocontrol of Fungal Spore Germination [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1975 Germination of Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici uredospores is inhibited by continuous irradiation. Prehydration of spores enhances both dark germination and photoinhibition. Simultaneous irradiation with ineffective red (653 nanometers) and inhibitory far red light (720 nanometers) results in partial nullification of the inhibition brought about by ...

Acta Agrobotanica, 2023 Fungal spores often cause allergic diseases in people working outdoors, especially in agriculture. In the case of vineyard workers, the threat of mycotoxins is generally considered, and aerobiological monitoring focuses mainly on pathogenic fungi that ...
