Polar Fungi Pseudogymnoascus: Secondary Metabolites and Ecological Significance

Fungi are widely distributed organisms known to produce secondary metabolites and other biochemical compounds. However, fungi from the polar regions with extreme environmental conditions such as low temperatures, high ultra-violet exposure, nutrient scarcity, and dryness are understudied. They produ...
