- Global marine transport via sea vessels has the potential to alter the geographic range of marine microorganisms. One mechanism by which fungal species could be dispersed within the marine habitat is through the release of ballast water, water used to stabilize ships during transport. Recent culture-independent studies have investigated the bacterial portion of the microbiome of ballast water but no studies have examined the mycobiome in detail. In addition, no study has focused on the potential of ballast water to contain and spread fungal pathogens. Therefore, sixty ballast and harbor samples from four major ports and five ocean samples were examined using culture-independent techniques to: 1) ... [Read More]
