Marine fungi play a major role in marine and mangrove ecosystems.
Understanding how higher fungi with their spectrum of cellulolytic
and ligninolytic enzymes degrade wood tissue, while labyrinthuloids
and thraustochytrids further contribute to the dissolved organic
matter entering the open ocean is essential to marine ecology. This
work provides an overview of marine fungi including morphology and
ultrastructure, phylogeny, biogeography and biodiversity.
Increasingly, biotechnology is also turning to these organisms to
develop new bioactive compounds and to address problems such as
decomposition of materials in the ocean and bioremediation of oil
spills. These potential applications of marine fungi are also
treated. In the light of massive marine oil spills in the past
years, the importance of understanding marine fungi and their role
in the food chain cannot be underestimated.
