Abstract

The Antarctica and High Arctic regions are extreme environments, with average maximum temperatures below 0 °C for most days of the year. Interestingly, fungi inhabit these regions. This review describes the history of fungal surveys near the Syowa Station and the fungal diversity in this region. In the High Arctic region, I summarize the changes in the fungal communities of the glacial retreat areas of Ny-Ålesund, Norway and Ellesmere Island, Canada, in response to climate change. In addition, the ability of Antarctic and Arctic fungi to secrete enzymes at sub-zero temperatures is presented. Finally, the future directions of Antarctic and Arctic fungal research are provided.

南极和北极高纬度地区真菌调查及其对气候变化的影响

南极洲和高北极地区是极端环境，一年中大部分时间的平均最高气温低于0°C。有趣的是，真菌栖息在这些区域。本文介绍了Syowa站附近真菌调查的历史和该地区真菌的多样性。在高北极地区，我总结了挪威Ny-Ålesund和加拿大埃尔斯米尔岛冰川退缩地区真菌群落的变化，以应对气候变化。此外，还介绍了南极和北极真菌在零下温度下分泌酶的能力。最后，对今后南极和北极真菌研究的方向进行了展望。
