Description
Isabela Maria Agustini da Silveira Bastos led a 2026 review of fungi in mangrove forests worldwide. Mangroves are coastal trees whose fungi break down litter, cycle nutrients, and store carbon. The team combined a review of DNA-based survey studies with a fresh joint analysis of raw sequence data.
The review covered 23 studies and 1,154 samples. A shared core set of fungi appeared in mangroves around the world, led by the Ascomycota group, with a second group close behind. Bare mud held the richest mix, while living plant parts held a narrower set with many possible plant pathogens. Soil near roots held wood-eating fungi. The authors note DNA surveys reveal far more fungi than old culture methods, but can miss some groups.
