Описание:Marine mycology consists a diverse group, whose characteristic of survival in hostile environments and their adaptations makes them attractive for obtaining metabolites and diverse biotechnological applications. Among its utilities, it is reported the production of alkaloids, lipids, enzymes, pigments, compounds with medical application, within others. These fungi usually inhabit tropical, subtropical, and temperate climates; therefore, due to the tropical climate and geographical position that Costa Rica possesses, the country is promising for the exploration and exploitation of the mycological diversity associated to the organisms in which marine fungi usually lodge, such as marine sponges, algae and plants located in the sea or mangroves. Thus, this article aims to highlight the biotechnological potential of mycoflora in the coastal areas of Costa Rica.
