Abstract

Acid mine drainage AMD is an anthropogenic system having lower acidic pH value and high specific conductivity. In this study, from two different acidic environments, the AMDs of Çan Çanakkale pH 2.85 and of Balya Balıkesir pH 2.75 the microfungi was isolated and identification. Morphological and molecular techniques were used to identify microfungi. Then fifteen species belonging to nine genera were identified. They are listed as follows: Aspergillus awamori, A. repens, Cladosporium herbarum, C. oxysporum, Penicillium citrinum, P. montanense, P. ochrochloron, P. spinulosum, P. verrucosum, Penidiella sp., Phialophora sp., Talaromyces aculeatus, T. helicus, Trichoderma harzianum, ve Umbelopsis autotrophica. Most of these species have been commonly found in acidic and/or heavy metal-rich environments. Consequently, such isolates from AMDs, which represents an extreme environment, are important because of revealing the fungal diversity and their potential biotechnological applications

Özet

Asit maden drenajı AMD , daha düşük asidik pH değerine ve yüksek spesifik iletkenliğe sahip olan bir antropojenik sistemdir. Bu çalışmada, Çanakkale pH 2.85 ve Balya Balıkesir pH 2.75 AMD'leri olmak üzere iki farklı asidik ortamdan mikrofunguslar izole edildi ve tanılandı. Asidik maden drenaj sularından izole edilen mikrofungusları belirlemek için morfolojik ve moleküler teknikler kullanılmış ve listelendiği gibi dokuz cinse ait on beş tür tespit edilmiştir; Aspergillus awamori, A. repens, Cladosporium herbarum, C. oxysporum, Penicillium citrinum, P. montanense, P. ochrochloron, P. spinulosum, P. verrucosum, Penidiella sp., Phialophora sp., Talaromyces aculeatus, T. helicus, Trichoderma harzianum, ve Umbelopsis autotrophica. Bu türlerin çoğu asidik ve/veya ağır metal açısından zengin ortamlarda bulunur. Sonuç olarak, ekstrem çevreyi temsil eden AMD'lerinden elde edilen bu izolatlar bu ortamlardaki fungus çeşitliliğinin ortaya çıkarılması ve potansiyel biyoteknolojik uygulamaları nedeniyle önemlidir
