Darkening of the Greenland Ice Sheet: Fungal Abundance and Diversity Are Associated With Algal Bloom.

Frontiers in microbiology

Perini L, Gostinčar C, Anesio AM, Williamson C, Tranter M, Gunde-Cimerman N.

Front Microbiol. 2019 Mar 21;10:557. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2019.00557. eCollection 2019.

Recent studies have highlighted the importance of ice-algal blooms in driving darkening and therefore surface melt of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS). However, the contribution of fungal and bacterial communities to this microbially driven albedo reduction remains unconstrained. To...

PMID: 18490999
Stud Mycol. 2007;58:157-83. doi: 10.3114/sim.2007.58.06.

Saprobic Cladosporium isolates morphologically similar to C. sphaerospermum are phylogenetically analysed on the basis of DNA sequences of the ribosomal RNA gene cluster, including the internal transcribed spacer regions ITS1 and ITS2, the 5.8S rDNA (ITS) and the small...

Seven Years at High Salinity-Experimental Evolution of the Extremely Halotolerant Black Yeast .

The experimental evolution of microorganisms exposed to extreme conditions can provide insight into cellular adaptation to stress. Typically, stress-sensitive species are exposed to stress over many generations and then examined for improvements in their stress tolerance. In contrast, when...

The polyphyletic group of black fungi within the Ascomycota (Arthoniomycetes, Dothideomycetes, and Eurotiomycetes) is ubiquitous in natural and anthropogenic habitats. Partly because of their dark, melanin-based pigmentation, black fungi are resistant to stresses including UV- and ionizing-radiation, heat and...

Novel Antarctic yeast adapts to cold by switching energy metabolism and increasing small RNA synthesis.

The novel extremophilic yeast Rhodotorula frigidialcoholis, formerly R. JG1b, was isolated from ice-cemented permafrost in University Valley (Antarctic), one of coldest and driest environments on Earth. Phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses classified R. frigidialcoholis as a novel species. To characterize...

Hypersaline waters in salterns have so far been considered to be populated only with halophilic algae and bacteria and completely lacking halophilic fungi. In this paper we present population dynamics of polymorphic black yeasts, isolated from hypersaline waters (3-30%...
