TY - GEN A1 - Knabe, Nicole T1 - Genetic manipulation of protective pigments in a rock-inhabiting model fungus Knufia petricola A95 N2 - Black ascomycetous microcolonial fungi are persistent inhabitants of rock surfaces, but are especially conspicuous in hostile environments like cold and hot deserts. The unique robustness of MFCs is supported by protective pigments, like melanin and carotenoids. We study the role of these pigments in the stress resistance of the model rock fungus Knufia petricola (Chaetothyriales) strain A95.
