Environmental Conditions for Growth and Toleranceof Extremes Biology of Fungi, Lecture 7 Concepts Fungal cultures in the laboratory does not always predict what happens to fungi growing in nature Fungi often can tolerate one suboptimal condition provided all others are at or near optimum Competition in nature can restrict what is observed to occur in the laboratory Temperature Fungi can be categorized with regard to their response to temperature Temperature (cont.) Four basic groups Thermophilic: 20°C min., ~50°C max., 40-50°C optimum Thermotolerant: can grow well within a wide range of tempe
