Metagenomes in the Borderline Ecosystems of the Antarctic Cryptoendolithic Communities. [PDF]
, 2019 Antarctic cryptoendolithic communities are microbial ecosystems dwelling inside rocks of the Antarctic desert. We present the first 18 shotgun metagenomes from these communities to further characterize their composition, biodiversity, functionality, and ...

Draft Genome Sequence of the Yeast Rhodotorula sp. Strain CCFEE 5036, Isolated from McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica. [PDF]
, 2020 A draft genome sequence was assembled and annotated of the basidiomycetous yeast Rhodotorula sp. strain CCFEE 5036, isolated from Antarctic soil communities. The genome assembly is 19.07 megabases and encodes 6,434 protein-coding genes. The sequence will

The roles of endolithic fungi in bioerosion and disease in marine ecosystems. I. General concepts [PDF]
, 2017 Endolithic true fungi and fungus-like microorganisms penetrate calcareous substrates formed by living organisms, cause significant bioerosion and are involved in diseases of many host animals in marine ecosystems.

Taxonomy of rock-inhabiting fungi from James Ross Island, Antarctica
Czech Polar Reports, 2023 A total of 51 strains of rock-inhabiting fungi, which were isolated from rock fragments in the deglaciated area of James Ross Island, Antarctica, were studied and compared by sequencing the ITS rDNA region. Analysed strains were classified into two classes of the phylum Ascomycota.

Mechanisms of olivine dissolution by rock-inhabiting fungi explored using magnesium stable isotopes [PDF]
Chemical Geology, 2019 Abstract To unravel the dissolution mechanisms of olivine by a rock-inhabiting fungus we determined the stable isotope ratios of Mg on solutions released in a laboratory experiment. We found that in the presence of the fungus Knufia petricola the olivine dissolution rates were about seven-fold higher (1.04 × 10−15 mol cm−2 s−1) than those in the ...
