    Growth of mold or other bacteria requires immediate attention to control damage. Natural cellulosic materials are the best environment for mold spores to grow and mature. "Mold is a microorganism that produces enzymes that convert the cellulose in fibers to soluble sugar that is metabolized as food.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cladosporium

    The spores are wind-dispersed and they are often extremely abundant in outdoor air. Indoors Cladosporium species may grow on surfaces when moisture is present. Cladosporium fulvum , cause of tomato leaf mould, has been an important genetic model, in that the genetics of host resistance are understood. [ 4 ]

    Mold propagates via spores, which are always present in the environment. Mold spores can be transferred to an object by mechanical instruments or air circulation. When spores attach to another organism, and the environment is favorable, they begin to germinate. Mold produce mycelium which growth pattern resembles cobwebs. Mycelium allows the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indoor_mold

    Spores need three things to grow into mold: nutrients – cellulose (the cell wall of green plants) is a common food for indoor spores; moisture – to begin the decaying process caused by mold; and time – mold growth begins from 24 hours to 10 days after the provision of growing conditions.

    Cladosporium cladosporioides is a common saprotroph occurring as a secondary infection on decaying, or necrotic, parts of plants. [6] This fungus is xerophilic – growing well in low water activity environments (e.g., a W = 0.86–0.88). [14] This species is also psychrophilic, it can grow at temperatures between −10 and −3 °C (14 and 27 ...

    Rain can wash spores into the soil where they infect young tubers, and the spores can also travel long distances on the wind. The early stages of blight are easily missed. Symptoms include the appearance of dark blotches on leaf tips and plant stems. White mold will appear under the leaves in humid conditions and the whole plant may quickly ...

  9. Trichoderma viride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trichoderma_viride

    T. viride is a mold which produces spores asexually, by mitosis. It is the anamorph of Hypocrea rufa, its teleomorph, which is the sexual reproductive stage of the fungus and produces a typical fungal fruiting body. [1]
