Summary

Description
English: Possible mycoloops in aquatic environments - Saprotrophic chytrids may play important roles in aquatic food webs, by decomposing inedible organic material such as pollens. Zoospores released from pollen may be consumed by zooplankton, functioning as another “mycoloop.” In addition to chytrids, other zoosporic fungi or fungal-like protists, such as Cryptomycota and Labyrinthulomycota, can infect phytoplankton or consume large inedible organic material, which may be grazed by zooplankton in freshwater and marine environments.
