Rock-inhabiting fungi originated during periods of dry climate in the late Devonian and middle Triassic

Fungal Biology, 2011
Non-lichenized rock-inhabiting fungi (RIF) are slow-growing melanized ascomycetes colonizing rock surfaces in arid environments. They possess adaptations, which allow them to tolerate extreme abiotic conditions, such as high UV radiations and extreme temperatures.

Extremotolerant rock inhabiting black fungi from Italian monumental sites

Fungal Diversity, 2015
A wide sampling for isolating highly destructive and extremotolerant black fungi was performed from Italian monuments in selected historical sites which include the “Cortile della Pigna”, Vatican Museum and the St Peter colonnade (Vatican City State), the monumental cemetery of Bonaria (Cagliari), and other monuments in the city of Cagliari.

Microcolonial rock inhabiting fungi and lichen photobionts: evidence for mutualistic interactions

Mycological Research, 2005
On nutrient-poor rock surfaces, yeast-like black fungi (also called microcolonial fungi, MCF) may derive organic carbon either from the atmosphere or from interactions with other rock-inhabiting microorganisms. Interactions between free-living rock inhabiting heterotrophic fungi and phototrophic algae were investigated using axenic cultures.

Multiple Stress Factors affecting Growth of Rock‐inhabiting Black Fungi

Botanica Acta, 1995
AbstractBlack fungi, belonging to the Dematiaceae, with yeast‐like growth patterns, were isolated from rock surfaces in the Mediterranean. They tolerate high temperatures and sodium chloride stress although they are neither thermophilic nor halophilic organisms.

Temperature and NaCl- tolerance of rock-inhabiting meristematic fungi

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1998
Black meristematic fungi together with lichens and cyanobacteria dominate the micro-flora of rock surfaces in arid and semi-arid environments of hot and cold deserts. This study shows that rock inhabiting meristematic fungi are extremely tolerant against high temperatures, desiccation and osmotic stress.

RupestriomycesandSpissiomyces, two new genera of rock-inhabiting fungi from China

Mycologia, 2015
Bare rocks in arid and semi-arid climates may harbor a bewildering biodiversity of fungi that are overlooked in China. During a survey of rock-inhibiting fungi in China, more than 1000 were isolated and 14 belonging to Dothideomycetes (Ascomycota) were selected for detailed study.

Rock-Inhabiting Fungi in Antarctica: New Frontiers of the Edge of Life

2019
Adverse conditions on the Antarctic continent, such as fluctuations in temperature and humidity, intense solar radiation, and nutrient deficiency make rock surfaces inhospitable habitats for microorganisms. Antarctica has considerable geological diversity and includes the presence of all types of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks.

Significance and Regulation of Acids Production by Rock-Inhabited Fungi

2015
According to the results of screening acidification activity of 24 species of micromycetes in vitro, 18 of them produced organic acids in artificial medium. The fungi from genera Penicillium and strains of Aspergillus niger have the most active production of organic acids. The ratio of acids formed by fungi on a liquid glucose-containing medium changes
