Applications of Haloalkaliphilic Fungi in Mycoremediation of Saline-Alkali Soil

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Mycoremediation and Environmental Sustainability

Part of the book series: Fungal Biology ((FUNGBIO))

Abstract

Salinity and alkalinity stress are natural status of the environment, but salinization lands are increasing because of secondary salinization of arable land every year. Soda saline-alkaline lands are significantly harmful to agriculture due to the coexistence of salinity and alkalinity and difficulties for management; thus, efficacy strategies to remediate such soil are urgent. The ecosystem of saline-alkaline land is relatively simple and fragile, and one of the most important reasons is lack of fungal organisms, which play potential roles in buffering salinity and alkalinity stress through absorbing and/or constraining salt ions, secreting organic acids and/or macromolecular degradation enzymes, and other benefits of biomasses for soil health; therefore, haloalkaliphilic fungi are excellent biological resources for soil mycoremediation. In this chaptor, we focused on the following aspects: the isolation of extremophilic fungi, salt- and alkalinity-resistant genes, and high-effectively degrading enzymes, genetically improvement for haloalkaliphilic fungi, and their application in saline-alkali soil remediation.
