Marine-Derived Fungi: Promising Candidates for Enhanced Bioremediation

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Approaches in Bioremediation

Part of the book series: Nanotechnology in the Life Sciences ((NALIS))

Abstract

Marine environments due to their unique characteristics support microbial population adapted to withstand adverse conditions. Marine-derived fungi, compared to their terrestrial counterparts, are better suited for bioremediation of a range of pollutants including heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), textile dye effluents and other recalcitrant compounds and xenobiotics. The present work emphasizes on harnessing marine-derived fungi in the field of bioremediation.
