Rhizopus is a genus of common saprophytic fungi on plants and specialized parasites on animals. They are found in a wide variety of organic substances, including "mature fruits and vegetables", [2] jellies, syrups, leather, bread, peanuts, and tobacco. They are multicellular.
Aspergillus sydowii is a saprophytic fungus found in soil that can contaminate food and is occasionally pathogenic to humans. It is the predominant fungus found on wheat Qu, the most widely used source of raw microorganisms and crude enzymes for Chinese rice wine brewing. [5]
Phialophora fastigiata is a mitosporic, [1] saprophytic fungus commonly found in soil, [2] and on wood, [3] and wood-pulp. [4] This species was initially placed in the genus Cadophora but was later transferred to the genus Phialophora based on morphological and growth characteristics. [5] In culture, P. fastigiata produces olive-brown, velvety ...
It is a saprophytic fungus that primarily resides on plants, soil, straw, and dung. Endophytic C. globosum assists in cellulose decomposition of plant cells. [1] They are found in habitats ranging from forest plants to mountain soils across various biomes. [2] [3] [4] C. globosum colonies can also be found indoors and on wooden products. [5] [6]
The fungus was originally classified as a subspecies of A. flavus called Aspergillus flavus subsp. parasiticus (Speare) due to its strong resemblance to A. flavus. Indeed, this fungus is very closely related to A. flavus [3] and is often misidentified as the latter. [3] However, the two species are separable based on morphological features. [3]
Stropharia caerulea is a saprophytic fungus that fruits singly or in groups. [21] It grows in or on meadows, roadsides, hedgerows, gardens, and woodchip mulch. [19] In Europe it is often found in beech woods in alkaline soil. [5] It is a common species found throughout Europe, where it fruits from July to November. [4]
In fact, calcium-containing antacids are known to cause changes in stool color. So if you notice pale or clay-colored stool for the first time, ask yourself if you might have inadvertently taken a ...
Acremonium species are usually slow-growing and are initially compact and moist. Their hyphae are fine and hyaline, and produce mostly simple phialides.Their conidia are usually one-celled (i.e. ameroconidia), hyaline or pigmented, globose to cylindrical, and mostly aggregated in slimy heads at the apex of each phialide.
