Aquatic hyphomycetes and litter decomposition in tropical streams: insights from the first study in Guadeloupe
Aquatic hyphomycetes are key organisms that perform the decomposition of plant organic matter in streams. They are strongly influenced by nitrogen...

Antibacterial activity of root endophytic aquatic hyphomycetes against plant pathogenic bacteria
Two root endophytic aquatic hyphomycetes, Campylospora parvula Kuzuha and Tetracladium setigerum (Grove) Ingold were screened for their bioactivity...

Does environmental variability in Atlantic Forest streams affect aquatic hyphomycete and invertebrate assemblages associated with leaf litter?
We aimed to understand how the environmental variability produced by water parameters, land use, and land cover in small streams affects aquatic...

Disentangling the chaos of Fuscosporella reveals a new potential morphological adaptation to spore dispersal in aero-aquatic hyphomycetes
Fuscosporella xingyiensis , collected from submerged wood in Malaysia and Taiwan, is described and illustrated with light and scanning electron...

Eco-physiological Responses of Aquatic Fungi to Three Global Change Stressors Highlight the Importance of Intraspecific Trait Variability
Anthropogenic change at a global scale is affecting life on Earth with impacts on freshwaters. Aquatic hyphomycetes are fungi that drive organic...

Five Decades of Research on the Freshwater Hyphomycetes in India
Aquatic hyphomycetes, an important mitosporic fungal community, are involved in organic matter processing and energy flow in the lotic ecosystems...
-
Inoculation of Leaf Litter with Aquatic Hyphomycetes
Individual colonies of aquatic hyphomycetes on leaf litter submerged in streams are most often initiated by the attachment and germination of single...
-
Ecosystem services provided by fungi in freshwaters: a wake-up call
The set of functions and resources derived from ecosystems are broadly described as ecosystem services. Human society is gratified by a diverse range...

An Illustrated Key to the Common Temperate Species of Aquatic Hyphomycetes
Aquatic hyphomycetes are an ecological group of fungi that play a crucial role in the decomposition of plant litter and in the food webs of streams...

Contribution of macroinvertebrate shredders and aquatic hyphomycetes to litter decomposition in remote insular streams
Shredders play a crucial role in litter decomposition in streams. However, in oceanic islands, many streams have low shredder density and richness,...
-
Sporulation by Aquatic Hyphomycetes
A very substantial proportion of fungal production, often in excess of 50%, is invested in propagules that are released from decomposing leaves in...

Effects of exotic fruit plants on leaf decomposition in Amazon: a study in aquatic microcosm
Introduction of exotic species into riparian vegetation can result in a negative impact on invertebrates and microorganisms and, consequently, on...
-
Effect of the microbial conditioning and temperature increase on the leaf consumption by shredders in Amazonian aquatic systems
We used experimental chambers to evaluate the effect of the temperature increasing and microbial conditioning degree on the survival and leaf...

Geminoarcus maximus sp. nov. and Ceramothyrium brevis sp. nov., two novel aquatic hyphomycetes from Viet Nam
Geminoarcus maximus sp. nov and Ceramothyrium brevis sp. nov. were isolated from fallen leaves collected from Cuc Phuong, Ninh Binh and Phu Quoc...

Biodiversity of Fungi in Aquatic Environment of Iraq
In this chapter, an estimation of fungal biodiversity in aquatic environment of Iraq was based on past and updated reports from the literature. The...

Dual effects of drying and urban pollution on leaf litter decomposition and shredder consumption in permanent and intermittent streams
In the present study we investigated the combined effect of flow intermittence and wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluent on leaf litter...
-
Stream environmental conditions are homogenised outside a protected area, but fungal beta diversity remains unchanged
Matter and energy fluxes and ecosystem services in streams rely on fungi associated with leaf litter. However, the species diversity of this...

Microbial colonization and decomposition of commercial tea and native alder leaf litter in temperate streams
Leaf litter decomposition in streams is a fundamental ecosystem process that allows for the cycling of nutrients. The rate at which leaf litter...

Temporal dynamics of organic matter, hyphomycetes and invertebrate communities in a Brazilian savanna stream
Leaf litter breakdown is an important process in riparian ecosystems, regulated by the concomitant fluctuations of allochthonous organic matter input...
