Description
Istvan Pocsi, Jan Dijksterhuis, Jos Houbraken, and Ronald de Vries review fungi that thrive where water is scarce. Their twenty twenty-four article covers salt-tolerant and xerophilic Aspergillus species, molds that grow in dry, salty, or sugary settings where most life fails. Such fungi sit in homes, foods, and harsh soils.
The review catalogs what industry could gain from them. They make a wide range of salt-proof enzymes that cut proteins, starches, fats, and plant fibers. They also hold a trove of untapped bioactive compounds. Uses run from cleaning dyed wastewater and breaking down pollutants to low-water fermentation for foods like daqu, meju, and tea. Farm uses are also weighed.
