The complete genome sequence of P. camemberti was published in 2014. [9] In 2024, the French National Centre for Scientific Research warned that the spore-producing ability of albino strains of P. camemberti has declined due to prolonged vegetative reproduction. The Norman cheese industry now struggles to find enough spores to inoculate their ...
They isolated one particular albino strain known as Penicillium camemberti that produces the perfect white rind, and soon cheesemakers globally began using it. Benjamin Wolfe, who teaches ...
At the heart of the problem is Penicillium camemberti, a fungus used in cheesemaking that gives Camembert its white rind and helps develop both the cheese’s rich buttery umami flavor and its ...

Penicillium camemberti and Penicillium roqueforti are the molds on Camembert, Brie, Roquefort, and many other cheeses. Penicillium nalgiovense is used in soft mold-ripened cheeses, such as Nalžovy (ellischau) cheese, and to improve the taste of sausages and hams, and to prevent colonization by other molds and bacteria.
The surface of each cheese is then sprayed with an aqueous suspension of the mold Penicillium camemberti, and the cheeses are left to ripen for a legally required minimum of three weeks. This affinage produces the distinctive bloomy, edible rind and creamy interior texture characteristic of the cheese. [ 2 ]
Citrinin was first isolated from Penicillium citrinum prior to World War II; [4] subsequently, it was identified in over a dozen species of Penicillium and several species of Aspergillus (e.g., Aspergillus terreus and Aspergillus niveus), including certain strains of Penicillium camemberti (used to produce cheese) and Aspergillus oryzae (used to produce sake, miso, and soy sauce).

A bloomy rind is a cheese rind that is soft and fluffy and white in color. Cheese that uses Penicillium camemberti is prone to developing bloomy rind. Bloomy rind cheese can be described as having "mild and lactic" flavors that may resemble onion or mushroom. [1]
