TL;DR: Qualitative tests showed that the fungal collection presents important cellulolytic activity, which is in line with that of a nineteenth-century art collection in which the biodeterioration by fungi is rampant.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that attention should be placed when combining certain types of agrochemicals with antagonistic fungi in Integrated Pest and Disease Management strategies or when transitioning to organic agriculture and suggest that endosphere of wild plants could be an attractive guild to find new Trichoderma species with promising bioremediation capabilities.

TL;DR: In this article, a physicochemical and microbiological study of a large format painting on canvas called La Danza was conducted to identify the fungal species that inhabit the artwork and are responsible for the damage observed.

TL;DR: To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report on cultivable mycobiota richness and their Cr and Pb tolerance and the results open new research possibilities about fungal diversity and heavy metals myco-remediation.

TL;DR: Infectious keratitis is the main cause of preventable blindness worldwide, with about 1.5–2.0 million new cases occurring per year.
