Department of Genetics and Microbiology, The University of Liverpool, L69 3BX, Liverpool, UK aut Nutrient acquisition by fungi—the relation between physiological understanding and ecological reality [Elektronische Daten] [D Jennings] The measure of the ability of a fungus to acquire a soluble nutrient is given by the flux of that nutrient across the plasma membrane. The determination of fluxes into fungi, the factors which govern the magnitude of a flux, particularly external substrate concentration, and pH are discussed. The difficulties of determining fluxes in the natural environment are considered. Reference is made to studies on unicells, bacteria and fungi, in enhancing understanding of the relationship between growth and the flux of a nutrient into a fungus. The artificial system is considered to be a valuable step between laboratory experiment and ecological reality. Likewise, the generation of mathematical models relating flux of nutrient to growth can provide an insight as to the significance of various physiological processes influencing growth of a fungus in its natural environment.
