A survey of aquatic lignicolous fungi in the area about Blacksburg, Virginia
… reveals little information concerning the aquatic fungi associated with submerged wood debris. During the past fifteen years several mycologists have studied such lignicolous fungi, but their efforts have been confined almost entirely to marine and brackish waters. It was thought that a …

Environmental factor differences related to the growth of three species of Monoblepharella
… from 4.5 to greater than 8 were similar to most aquatic fungi. Nutritional requirements of the organisms for carbohydrates, inorganic and organic nitrogen and vitamins were determined. With the exception of xylol and sorbitol all of the carbohydrates studied were metabolized by M. laruei. In …

Fungal Flora of a Cove on Lake Falcon
… nigra were also collected monthly for observed Aquatic Hyphomycetes. A measurement of the fungal biomass on Arundo donax would be determined by a survey of numbers of ascoma on the stems. The dominant fungi that colonized the stems were Leptosphaeria tetonensis, its anamorph Phoma, and …

What lies beneath? Fungal diversity at the bottom of the Great Lakes
Fungi are diverse organisms found in nearly every global environment as key components in nutrient cycling and decomposition. To date, most fungal diversity has been documented from terrestrial habitats leaving aquatic habitats rarely explored. Even less is known about fungi inhabiting freshwater …

Stress-induced alterations in ecosystem function: the role of acidification in lotic metabolism and biogeochemistry
I investigated how anthropogenic acidification influences stream metabolism and nitrogen (N) cycling by considering the stress response of microbial compartments responsible for these ecosystem processes. Microcosm incubations of leaf biofilms from streams of differing pH revealed greater rates of …

Effects of Water Column P-availability and Litter Microbial Mediated Processes and Stoichiometry in Aquatic Systems
<p>Anthropogenic nutrient enrichment of aquatic ecosystems is prevalent and can have detrimental effects on biological condition. Many of these effects have been attributed directly or indirectly to changes in autotrophic processes. However, in detrital-based streams changes in course detrital …
