The Antarctic Fungi Database provides curated information on fungal species isolated from Antarctic and sub-Antarctic environments.
It is designed to support research in microbial ecology, evolution, and environmental adaptation in extreme cold ecosystems.
Antarctic fungi are widely used as model organisms for studying survival under low temperatures, desiccation, and high ultraviolet radiation.
For each fungal entry, the database may include:
You can search and browse entries by gene name or related functional annotations.
When available, sequence data can be explored using integrated genome visualization and similarity search tools for efficient analysis.
If you use data from this database in your research, please cite the Antarctic Fungi Database and the original data sources referenced in each entry.
This database is developed and maintained as part of ongoing research at the Nakamura Laboratory,
which focuses on genomics, bioinformatics, and large-scale biological data analysis.
For questions, corrections, or data contributions, please contact the database maintainers through the project repository or via email.
