We describe and illustrate the new species Geomyces destructans. Bats infected with this
fungus present with powdery conidia and hyphae on their muzzles, wing membranes, and/or …

This chapter presents data on the mycobiota of Arctic permafrost. Populations of fungi in
permafrost samples are microfocal, that's why increasing numbers of colony forming units …

"… a number of chapters provide excellent summaries of the modern methods available for
studying fungal ecology, along with those more traditional methods that are still extremely …

White-nose syndrome is an emerging disease in North America that has caused substantial
declines in hibernating bats. A recently identified fungus (Geomyces destructans) causes …

As now very few studies have been carried out on deep‐sea marine fungi, this field remains
relatively unknown. However, their presence inside benthic microbial eukaryotes at deep …

The diversity of sponge-associated fungi has been poorly investigated in remote
geographical areas like Antarctica. In this study, 101 phenotypically different fungal isolates …

Glacial retreat is one of the most conspicuous signs of warming in Antarctic regions. Glacier
soils harbor an active microbial community of decomposers, and under the continuous …

White-nose Syndrome (WNS) is an emerging infectious mycosis that has impacted multiple
species of North American bats since its initial discovery in 2006, yet the physiology of the …

White-nose syndrome (WNS) is a devastating disease affecting hibernating bats, first
documented in winter 2006 in eastern North America. Over 5.5 million bats of several …

During a survey of cold-adapted fungi in alpine glaciers on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, 1 428
fungal isolates were obtained of which 150 species were preliminary identified. Phoma …
