      Chytridiomycota, often referred to as chytrids, can be virulent parasites with the potential to inflict mass mortalities on hosts, causing e.g. changes in phytoplankton size distributions and succession, and the delay or ...
    • Seasonality of parasitic and saprotrophic zoosporic fungi: linking sequence data to ecological traits 

      Van den Wyngaert, Silke; Ganzert, Lars; Seto, Kensuke; Rojas Jiménez, Keilor Osvaldo; Agha, Ramsy; Berger, Stella A.; Woodhouse, Jason Nicholas; Padisak, Judit; Wurzbacher, Christian; Kagami, Maiko; Grossart, Hans-Peter (2022-06-28)
      Zoosporic fungi of the phylum Chytridiomycota (chytrids) regularly dominate pelagic fungal communities in freshwater and marine environments. Their lifestyles range from obligate parasites to saprophytes. Yet, linking the ...
