Answer:
Heat-resistant fungal spores found in Western Ghats
THE LITMUS TEST: The spores of the Pestalotiopsis sp. were able to withstand the sudden and steep increase in temperature from 20 degree C to 115 degree C, and they germinated and produced the fungus. Photo: Special Arrangement
The spores survived and germinated after being exposed to 115 degree C for two hours
Can the mesophilic fungal spores that normally grow at 20 degree C to 35 degree C survive higher temperatures and still be able to germinate when the conditions are right? Believe it or not, laboratory studies have shown that some species of mesophilic spores can indeed survive even when exposed to 115 degree C for two hours! The duration of survival was longer at lower temperatures.
“The fungi are among the most heat-resistant eukaryotes on record and are referred to as ‘Agni's Fungi,' after the Hindu God of Fire,” notes the paper published recently in the Fungal Biology journal.

Answer:
The majority of fungi are mesophiles, and grow at temperatures in the range of 5–35°C with optimum temperatures for growth between 25 and 30°C. ... These are the so-called thermophiles (heat-lovers) with high optimum temperatures for growth, and defined by Cooney and Emerson (1964) as those fungi unable to grow below 20°C.
