“…Halosphaeria appendiculata is found from sites over a range of 8-32%0. These are euhaline (Hughes 1968(Hughes , 1969Tubaki 1968Tubaki , 1969Booth 1979), mixohaline (Hughes 1969;Jones 1972;Poole and Price 1972;Shearer 1972;Henningsson 1974;Schaumann 1975a;Kirk and Schatz 1980), or brackish (Eaton 1972;Tubaki and Ito 1973). This fungus grows, fruits, and forms asci in culture from 10 to 100% (optimum growth = 40-100%) seawater (Tubaki 1969;Byrne and Jones 1975).…”

“…19) Taxonomic and ecological consideration of this species is previously discussed (Booth 198 1) under Lentescospora submarina Linder. Uncertain identification of certain collections as L. submarina (Kohlmeyer and Kohlmeyer 1979) renders the above discussion incomplete in relation to spore size (i.e., Henningsson 1974) and occurrence over salinity range (i.e., Johnson 1958 b;Poole and Price 1972;Henningsson 1974).…”

BOOTH, T. 1983. Lignicolous marine fungi from Slo Paulo, Brazil. Can. J. Bot. 61: 488-506.Lignicolous substrates, i.e., wood and leaves, were collected from 10 Slo Paulo State locations and 2 Pernambuco State sites. These were subsequently surveyed and incubated and (or) washed, macerated, and plated on culture media. Six types of wood and mangrove leaves were placed in exposed and buried digestors, recovered, surveyed, incubated, and resurveyed for marine fungi. Of a total of 69 isolated taxa, 32 species, including 24 ascomycetes, seven fungi imperfecti, and one basidiomycete, are discussed. , and ecological considerations are presented for each species. A possible Scolecobasidium-Septoria-Mycosphaerella anamorphic-teleomorphic association is suggested. BOOTH, T. 1983. Lignicolous marine fungi from S5o Paulo, Brazil. Can. J.

“…In the absence of terrestrial plant species with which to interact, the major functional role of fungi in these environments is the decomposition of lignocellulosic compounds and recycling of vascular plant litter (Newell 1996), alongside those that are pathogens. This also includes lignin degraders (Bucher et al 2004), which contribute to the primary decomposition of woody debris in estuarine environments (Poole and Price 1972;Tsui and Hyde 2004). The primarily saprotophic role fungi play in estuary environments has led to them being dominated by Basidiomycota and Ascomycota (Burgaud et al, 2013;Wang et al, 2019), but with a reduction in terrestrial subsidies in coastal waters, many species of Chytridiomycota become abundant (Sun et al, 2014;Jeffries et al, 2016).…”

Coastal zones are amongst the most productive marine environments and many are highly impacted by anthropogenic activity. Coastal zones are key regions for the transformation of land-based inputs of nutrients and pollutants and provide many essential ecosystem services for human society. Periods of tidal exposure and submergence, coupled with seasonal variation in land-based inputs, result in intertidal habitats characterized by highly variable environmental conditions that pose crucial adaptive challenges for organisms. This review focusses on the microbiome of coastal sediments consisting of protists (especially diatoms), bacteria, archaea and fungi. The diversity, distribution, production, adaptations, and interactions between these groups are reviewed. Coastal microbiomes are characterized by high rates of biogeochemical activity. Photoautotrophic diatoms exhibit complex patterns of behavior to cope with a highly variable light climate. Multiple species-species interactions between autotrophs and heterotrophs contribute to the cycling of carbon and nitrogen. In sediments, autotrophic and heterotrophic processes are closely coupled both spatially and temporally. Bacteria and archaea control the nitrogen-and carbon cycles while taxonomic diversity is influenced by gradients of organic matter, nitrogen compounds, sulfide, and oxygen. Fungi are important components of coastal salt marsh sediment microbiomes but their role in unvegetated sediments is less well understood. This review considers the high human impact on coastal sediments and the importance of nutrient gradients and pollution pressures (hydrocarbons) in affecting diversity and species distribution.

Seasonal patterns of primary colonization by lignicolous marine fungi in Hong Kong

1982

During a 14-month investigation of the seasonal pattern of primary colonization by lignicolous marine fungi in the coastal waters of Hong Kong, a pine block (Pinus massoniana Lamb.) was submerged each month at each of the five stations and recovered in the following month. Thirty-eight species of fungi were isolated, three of which were not identified. In this first recorded attempt to describe fungal colonization on submerged blocks quantitatively, five species (Periconiaprolifica, Cirrenalia macrocephala, Ceriosporopsis halima, Trichocladium achrasporum and Halosphaeria quadricornuta) were the most frequent and most abundant fungi on the monthly blocks. Statistical analyses of seasonal abundance of these fungi are presented and their occurrence in relation to varying temperature and salinity throughout the year, including the Phoma pattern, are discussed.
