Targeted disruption of melanin synthesis in rock-inhabiting fungi - a new tool in material science [PDF]
, 2016 Melanised rock-inhabiting fungi are found in extreme habitats and along broad spectrum of economically important man-made materials. Black fungi and accompanying organisms can weather rocks and cause significant losses in light availability to solar ...

Knufia petricola – a model for exploring the biology of black rock-inhabiting fungi [PDF]
, 2022 Black fungi also called black yeasts, rock-inhabiting fungi or microcolonial fungi are a group of Ascomycetes [Eurotiomycetes, Arthoniomycetes and Dothideomycetes] that exhibit high stress tolerance, yeast‑like or meristematic growth, and constitutive 1 ...

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Interactions between mycophagous nematodes, mycorrhizal and other soil fungi [PDF]
, 1990 The hypothesis that mycophagous nematodes feed on the mycelia of VAM fungi and consequently reduce the spread of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) infection in plant roots and the growth response of plants to this infection was investigated in ...

The Structural and Functional Diversities of Bacteria Inhabiting Plant Woody Tissues and Their Interactions with Fungi [PDF]
In recent studies, the bacterial and fungal communities associated with plant wood have received considerable attention. Due to microorganisms’ vertical migration from roots to leaves, these communities provide critical links between the ...

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.Microscopic analysis of Atacama Desert grit crust revealed a sequential assembly process in which airborne fungal spores of the Caliciaceae colonise quartz particles before encountering compatible Trebouxia photobionts. Free‐living algal cells on grit surfaces function as environmental reservoirs for symbiosis initiation, while multiple wind‐driven ...

Utilization of rock phosphate in alkaline soils by plants inoculated with mycorrhizal fungi and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria [PDF]
, 1976 Interactions between vesicular-arbuscular (VA) mycorrhizal fungi and phosphate-solubilizing bacteria were studied in a low-phosphate alkaline soil amended with 0, 0.1% and 0.5% rock phosphate.
