DIVERSITY OF MICROSCOPIC FUNGI IN LITHORIAL SANDS OF THE WHITE SEA
Abstract
For the first time, a study of the mycobiota of littoral sands of the cold-water White Sea was made. 24 samples were collected in July–August 2015 in Onega Bay, Kandalaksha Bay and on the Tersky coast. Culture methods were used to detect the number of colony forming units (CFU) and diversity of fungi. The number of CFUs is small, and ranges from 0 to 57 per 1 cm3. A total of 54 morphotypes were detected, of which 22 were identified to the species, 7 – not more accurately than to the genus level, and 25 were not identified, because did not form sporulation. With an abundance of more than 10% and a occurence of more than 50%, only two species are noted: Cladosorium sphaerospermum and Paradendryphiella salina. Five more species were found in more than one samles: Penicillium chrysogenum, Cadophora fastigiata, Acremonium fuci, anamorph of Pseudogymnoascus pannorum and teleomorph of Pseudeurotium hygrophilum. All other morphotypes were found in a small number in individual samples. In general, dark-colored forms predominated in the mycobiota both in diversity and in number.
