TY - GEN A1 - Knabe, Nicole T1 - Genetics for geomycology N2 - Black microcolonial fungi (MCF) are persistent inhabitants of rock surfaces. Biofilm establishment and more importantly, quantification of its geological input are so far only possible to be studied in simplified, well-controlled laboratory experiments. Therefore, the ability of MCF to cope with multiple, rapidly fluctuating stresses makes the group an interesting subject in the study of stress resistance but also in mineral weathering processes. We studied the role of protective pigments in stress resistance and mineral weathering of the rock-inhabiting fungus Knufia petricola (Chaetothyriales) strain A95.
