This is the first report of fungal parasitism of diatoms in a highly productive coastal upwelling
ecosystem, based on a year‐round time series of diatom and parasitic Chytridiomycota …

Marine fungi are severely understudied in the polar regions. We used molecularly identified
cultures to study fungi inhabiting 50 intertidal and sea-floor logs along the North Norwegian …

Members of the genus Penicillium are commonly isolated from various terrestrial and marine
environments, and play an important ecological role as a decomposer. To gain insight into …

The dark ocean is one of the largest biomes on Earth, with critical roles in organic matter
remineralization and global carbon sequestration. Despite its recognized importance, little is …

The subsurface realm is colonized by microbial communities to depths of> 1000 meters
below the seafloor (mb sf.), but little is known about overall diversity and microbial …

Climate change agitates interactions between organisms and the environment and forces
them to adapt, migrate, get replaced by others, or extinct. Marine environments are …

Covering a quarter of the world's tropical coastlines and being one of the most threatened
ecosystems, mangroves are among the major sources of terrestrial organic matter to oceans …

Marine microorganisms contribute markedly to global biomass and ecosystem function.
They include a diverse collection of organisms differing in cell size and in evolutionary …

Lowering the price of enzymes is one of the key challenges to stablish the full potential of
lignocellulosic biorefineries. Lignocellulolytic enzymes are used to deconstruct the complex …

Marine-derived enzymes have recently gained attention particularly for industrial
applications. Cellulose-degrading enzymes are among leading biocatalysts with potential …
