© Universität Bayreuth | UBT / Department of Mycology | Using high-resolution images from a scanning electron microscope, various fungi with a wide variety of growth forms were discovered on microplastic particles. Here, fungal spores are seen along a crack in a microplastic particle. The scale bar corresponds to 30 micrometers.
24.07.2021 Pathogenic fungi colonise microplastics in soils
Representatives of numerous pathogenic fungal species are finding new habitat on microplastic particles in the soil and could thus be one of the possible causes of an increase in fungal infections.
Researchers from Bayreuth, Hannover and Munich demonstrated this in a new study. Using high-throughput methods, the scientists analysed fungal communities from soil samples taken from sites near human settlements in western Kenya. The findings of this research have been published in the journal
24.07.2021 Mikroplastik in Böden wird von krankheitserregenden Pilzen besiedelt
Vertreter zahlreicher krankheitserregender Pilzarten finden auf Mikroplastik-Partikeln im Erdboden neue Lebensräume und könnten damit eine der möglichen Ursachen für einen Anstieg von Pilzinfektionen sein.
Dies haben Forscher aus Bayreuth, Hannover und München in einer neuen Studie herausgefunden. Hierfür haben sie mit Hochdurchsatz-Verfahren Pilzgemeinschaften in Bodenproben aus einem besiedelten Gebiet im Westen Kenias analysiert. Die Ergebnisse dieser Untersuchungen wurden in der Zeitschrift „Scientific Reports“ veröffentlicht.
Es handelt sich um die erste Studie, die sich mit Lebensgemeinschaften pilzlicher Mikroorganismen auf Mikroplastik-Partikeln im Erdboden befasst. Viele der dabei nachgewiesenen Arten gehören zu Pilzgruppen, die für Pflanzen, Tiere und Menschen krankheitserregend sind. Pathogene Mikropilze sind aufgrund ihrer für infektiöse Organis

This study is the first to focus on fungal communities on microplastic particles in the soil. Many of the species detected belong to groups of fungi that are pathogenic to plants, animals and humans. Pathogenic microfungi are able to colonize the otherwise inhospitable surfaces of microplastic particles due to their characteristic adhesive lifestyle. Furthermore, they are able to withstand strong solar radiati
