Evolution and adaptation of fungi at boundaries of life (2007, background): “High tolerance of the cryptoendolithic fungi might include additional mechanisms, such as thick cell wall and, probably, production of compatible endocellular cryoprotectants such as glycerol (Brown, 1978), trehalose (Thevelein, 1984; Weinstein et al., 2000) or mannitol (Feofilova et al.”
Phylogeny and taxonomy of meristematic rock-inhabiting black fungi in the Dothideomycetes based on multi-locus phylogenies (2014, background): “In particular trehalose is very efficient for its cryoprotective effects during freezing or desiccation (Weinstein et al. 2000) acting as stabilizer of enzyme conformation and phospholipid bi-layers of membranes allowing these surprising organisms to survive complete dehydration (Onofri et al.…”
Comparison of temperature effects on soil respiration and bacterial and fungal growth rates. (2005, background): “Both increasing and constant ergosterol content of fungi grown at higher temperatures have been reported [32–34].”
Fungi in Antarctica (2007, background): “(intracellular trehalose), described from fellfield soils in maritime Antarctica (Weinstein et al. 2000).”
