How Do Fungi Survive in the Sea and Respond to Climate Change?

Journal of Fungi, 2022
With the over 2000 marine fungi and fungal-like organisms documented so far, some have adapted fully to life in the sea, while some have the ability to tolerate environmental conditions in the marine milieu.

The Potential Role of Marine Fungi in Plastic Degradation – A Review

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Plastic debris has been accumulating in the marine realm since the start of plastic mass production in the 1950s. Due to the adverse effects on ocean life, the fate of plastics in the marine environment is an increasingly important environmental issue ...

Ecological and Oceanographic Perspectives in Future Marine Fungal Taxonomy

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Marine fungi are an ecological rather than a taxonomic group that has been widely researched. Significant progress has been made in documenting their phylogeny, biodiversity, ultrastructure, ecology, physiology, and capacity for degradation of ...

Marine fungi of the Baltic Sea. [PDF]

Mycology, 2020
Vast parts of the Baltic Sea have been mycologically neglected and are still awaiting exploration. Here we summarise earlier records of marine fungi from the Baltic, supplementing them with discoveries from fieldwork in Sweden in 2019. Although marine fungal diversity is clearly attenuated in the brackish water of the Baltic Sea, a substantial number ...

Diversity and physiology of marine lignicolous fungi in Arctic waters: a preliminary account [PDF]

Polar Research, 2011
Information on the diversity of marine fungi in polar environments is lacking, especially marine fungi colonizing wood. During visits to Tromsø and Longyearbyen, Norway, drift and trapped wood was collected to provide a preliminary account of ...

Extremophilic Fungi from Marine Environments: Underexplored Sources of Antitumor, Anti-Infective and Other Biologically Active Agents

Marine Drugs, 2022
Marine environments are underexplored terrains containing fungi that produce a diversity of natural products given unique environmental pressures and nutrients. While bacteria are commonly the most studied microorganism for natural products in the marine
