Biodiversity and Enzyme Activity of Marine Fungi with 28 New Records from the Tropical Coastal Ecosystems in Vietnam. [PDF]
The coastal marine ecosystems of Vietnam are one of the global biodiversity hotspots, but the biodiversity of marine fungi is not well known. To fill this major gap of knowledge, we assessed the genetic diversity (ITS sequence) of 75 fungal strains ...

A Simple and Efficient CRISPR/Cas9 System Using a Ribonucleoprotein Method for Flammulina filiformis
CRISPR/Cas9 systems were established in some edible fungi based on in vivo expressed Cas9 and guide RNA. Compared with those systems, the in vitro assembled Cas9 and sgRNA ribonucleoprotein complexes (RNPs) have more advantages, but only a few examples ...

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

Genomic characterization of three marine fungi, including Emericellopsis atlantica sp. nov. with signatures of a generalist lifestyle and marine biomass degradation. [PDF]
Marine fungi remain poorly covered in global genome sequencing campaigns; the 1000 fungal genomes (1KFG) project attempts to shed light on the diversity, ecology and potential industrial use of overlooked and poorly resolved fungal taxa.
