Distribution in the environment

Fungi are spread anywhere and can live on their own or as parasites of other eukaryote organisms. Some species can tolerate adverse conditions, such as, for instance, extreme temperatures: some live even at 5-6 degrees below zero, others at temperatures above 50 degrees. Mildews are microscopic fungi that look like a white, grey, green or black dusty coating. They are usually visible on such foods as bread, jam and fruits in the form of a blue or green coating.
