Harmful effects of fungi to humans
A number of moulds and yeasts cause human and animal diseases. For example, species of Aspergillus,Fusarium, and Sporothrix are opportunistic pathogens and easily infect individuals with weak immune systems.
A number of other moulds are well recognized causes of allergic reactions. For example Penicillium roquefortiiand Aspergillus clavatus are causes of pulmonary allergy in the cheese and brewery industries respectively.Arthrinium casues skin Allergies of cane harvesters.
Apart from infection and allergies, some moulds produce toxic compounds that are harmful to both humans and animals. The best known of these toxins is aflatoxin. Aflatoxin is mainly produced by some species of Aspergillussuch as Aspergillus flavusand Aspergillus parasitica. Aflatoxin is a powerful trigger of cancer (i.e., it is carcinogenic).
Harmful effects of fungi to plants
Majority of plant diseases are caused by fungi. The plant diseases caused by fungi range from tissue death to vascular wilting. Fungi cause both field and storage losses of agricultural products.
The Effects of Fungus By Matt Olberding, eHow Contributor
Mushrooms are a type of fungus.
A fungus is an organism that is neither an animal or plant, although it is more like a plant, except it has no chlorophyll and can't make its own food. Mushrooms, mold and yeast are all types of fungi. Fungi are critical in the decomposition of organic matter and have both positive and negative effects on the environment.
Fungi can have a negative effect on human by damaging the crops used as a source of food. Another negative effect could be illness or even death.
It can kill them
The ozone has both positive and negative effects. It protects us from UV rays but also acts as pollutant.
Fungi is a form of bacteria, that is actually sometimes good for your digestive tract. Some is found in cultured things like yogurt, cheese, etc. and I believe in some types of fungi, like mushrooms.
Yes.Fungi is useful to us.They are used to make medicines.
well, the negative effect we have on them is not taking care of its home (the ocean) which, will kill the barracudas prey to where the barracuda will have no food and die.:0(
There are very few if any positive effects, because human beings are not necessary for the maintenance/survival of the ecosystem. The most we can do is minimize our negative effects.

what negative effects have people done to the alpine biome
the negative effects of alpha radiation in general, alpha is of small risk to humans. compared to it's cousin's, beta and gamma.
The negative effects that humans have on the clownfish and its environment is the increased supply of carbon dioxide. Increased carbon dioxide causes the clownfish to lose the sense of smell and swim towards the predators.
Fungi are in forms of foods we eat. Mushrooms are fungi, and humans eat mushrooms, so humans eat fungi.
There are many negative effects of the environment of endangered species. Some of these include water quality, natural disasters, and the presence of humans.
The negative effects of using weapons to humans are: A) You harm other people physically and mentally B) You harm the environment which can harm crops and C) You are doing wrong to yourself, to the Earth, and to others
