Abstract

As human society and industrialization have progressed, harmful algal blooms have contributed to global ecological pollution which makes the development of a novel and effective algal control strategy imminent. This is because existing physical and chemical methods for dealing with the problem have issues like cost and secondary pollution. Benefiting from their environmentally friendly and biocompatible properties, white-rot fungi (WRF) have been studied to control algal growth. WRF control algae by using algae for carbon or nitrogen, antagonism, and enhancing allelopathies. It can be better applied to practice by immobilization. This paper reviews the mechanism for WRF control of algae growth and its practical application. It demonstrates the limitations of WRF controlling algae growth and aids the further study of biological methods to regulate eutrophic water in algae growth research. In addition, it provides theoretical support for the fungi controlling algae growth.

Keywords: Allelopathy; Bioreactors; Eutrophication; Harmful algal blooms; Microbial immobilization; White-rot fungi.
