Chernobyl dark fungus might be 'eating' radiation, experiments show

Highlights

  • Researchers identify a dark fungus thriving inside one of Chernobyl’s most radioactive structures
  • Its pigment, melanin, appears central to its survival and unusual behaviour
  • Scientists propose, but have not confirmed, a process similar to photosynthesis using radiation
  • New studies examine its potential as a natural radiation shield

A fungus thriving where humans cannot

Nearly four decades after the Chernobyl reactor explosion, the exclusion zone remains inaccessible to people, yet several life forms adapt to its harsh environment. One of the most striking examples is a black fungus found on the interior walls of a highly contaminated building near the damaged reactor.

This species, Cladosporium sphaerospermum, is among several dark-hued fungi identified during a survey in the late 1990s. Researchers documented 37 species in total, many rich in melanin, but C. sphaerospermum dominates the samples and carries high levels of radioactive contamination.
