Fifty years of marine mycology (2011, background): “…three lipodepsipeptides affect fungal cell wall synthesis and thus have a potential in the control of dermatophytes (Schilingham et al. 1998), while Paz et al. (2010) showed that 36 marine derived fungi isolated from a Mediterranean sponge Psammocinia sp. possessed antifungal activity; broad…”
Astrosphaeriella is polyphyletic, with species in Fissuroma gen. nov., and Neoastrosphaeriella gen. nov. (2011, background): “2010) and marine sponges (Paz et al. 2010).”
Bioactive secondary metabolites from endophytes and associated marine derived fungi (2011, unknown): “…fungi associated with marine organisms, mainly with invertebrates such as sponges or with marine algae, were found to represent a vast untapped reservoir of metabolic diversity and have attracted growing attention in recent years (Bugni and Ireland 2004; Paz et al. 2010; Rateb and Ebel 2011).”
Cochliobolus: an overview and current status of species (2011, background): “An unidentified Cochliobolus sp. has been recorded, inhabiting marine sponges although the ecological role of the fungus is poorly understood (Paz et al. 2010).”
