Mycoremediation of Heavy Metals in Marine Ecosystems Using Fungal Endophytes

Mycoremediation is a form of bioremediation in which decontamination of the environment can be done. There are multiple gene regulation processes involved in this context that are responsible for enhancing the barrier against heavy metals. This study discusses some crucial aspects of mycoremediation and also the process of heavy metal exposure in the marine ecosystem. In situ aerobic bioremediation has been discussed in this study which more or less depends on the advanced technologies. Reduction of genotoxicity is the main theme of this study which occurs by various types of heavy metals. This study also discusses some crucial aspects of negative impact of metals in the marine ecosystems with the aid of measuring their percentage. Toposheet value of marine ecology has also been discussed in this study. Endophytic fungi act as the mycoremediation factor in this study by which adverse effects of biodiversity can be understood. This study further discusses the process of the waste accumulation and control by the process of mycoremediation. The study included various types of endophytic fungus exemplified byPenicillium Rubens, Pleurotusostreatus, Emericella and Aspergillus.
