    Abstract:

    Abstract:The historical relics exposed to the natural environment during the long-term were vulnerable to microbial invasion.According to some new studies,microorganism of Pseudonocardia may is one of the main groups on the surface of mural paintings and petroglyphs,causing damage to the paints. Based on recent research progress,we reviewed the phenomenon according to the relationship between the ancient paintings and the growth conditions of Pseudonocardia,which could provide a new theory basis for the protection of cultural relics especially mural paintings and petroglyphs.
