Голос екосистеми: як гриби сигналізують про зміни в природі

Abstract

In today's world, environmental safety is a critical concern due to pollution from heavy metals, radioactive substances, pesticides, and plastics. Fungi serve as natural bioindicators, detecting and mitigating ecological threats. They accumulate toxins, decompose pollutants, and restore degraded ecosystems. This study explores fungi’s role in bioindication and bioremediation, including their ability to absorb heavy metals, track industrial emissions, and detect radioactive contamination. Additionally, fungi can break down oil hydrocarbons, pesticides, and even microplastics, offering promising applications in biotechnology and industrial safety. Advancing research in this field could enhance sustainable development and environmental protection.
