In vitro formation of Ca-oxalates and the mineral glushinskite by fungal interaction with carbonate substrates and seawater (2005, background): “Fungi and the carbon source they use determine the growth and form of calcium oxalates crystals precipitated on fungal hyphae (Whitney and Arnott, 1988).”
Oxalate production by fungi: significance in geomycology, biodeterioration and bioremediation (2014, background): “Oxalate oxidation by oxalotrophic bacteria increases alkalinity and media can reach >pH 9, enabling calcite precipitation (Braissant et al., 2002, 2004).”
Processes of carbonate precipitation in modern microbial mats (2009, background): “The formation of these carbonate deposits follows two steps (Braissant et al., 2004): (1) the production of oxalic acid by plants and fungi and (2) bacterially-mediated transformation of oxalate into calcium carbonate.”
Geomicrobiology of Eukaryotic Microorganisms (2010, background): “2H2O) and the more stable calcium oxalate monohydrate (whewellite) are the most common forms of oxalate associated with various fungi (Arnott 1995; Gharieb et al. 1998; Gadd 1999; Braissant et al. 2004).”
Geomycology: biogeochemical transformations of rocks, minerals, metals and radionuclides by fungi, bioweathering and bioremediation. (2007, unknown): “…the ability to adopt a variety of growth, metabolic and morphological strategies, their adaptive capabilities to environmental extremes and, their mutualistic associations with animals, plants, algae and cyanobacteria (Burford et al. 2003a; Gadd 2004; Braissant et al. 2004; Fomina et al. 2005a).”
