Rhizopus microsporus causes rice seedling blight and is a severe crop disease in Asia. [15] In addition, R. microsporus significantly affects sunflower yield in terms of both (oil) quality and quantity. The free fatty acid content of sunflower oil increases from 0.8% to 19.4%.
Rhizopus oligosporus is used to make tempeh, a fermented food derived from soybeans. Rhizopus oryzae is used in the production of alcoholic beverages in parts of Asia and Africa. Rhizopus stolonifer (black bread mold) causes fruit rot on strawberry, tomato, and Sweet potato and is used in commercial production of fumaric acid and cortisone.
Rhizomucor pusillus belongs to the order Mucorales and the class Mucoromycetes. R. pusillus is a member of the phylum Mucoromycota (previously Zygomycota), which includes Rhizopus microsporus, R. oligosporus, and R. oryzae, fungi that have been used for centuries to produce tempeh from the fermentation of soybeans.

Rhizopus oligosporus is a fungus that belongs to the class Mucoromycetes, which is one of two classes in the phylum Mucoromycota. [6] Rhizopus oligosporus belongs to the Rhizopus microsporus group. This group is made of taxa with similar morphology that are associated with undesired metabolite production, pathogenesis and food fermentation.
Treatment is generally performed using antifungal medicines, usually in the form of a cream or by mouth or injection, depending on the specific infection and its extent. [15] Some require surgically cutting out infected tissue. [3] Fungal infections have a world-wide distribution and are common, affecting more than one billion people every year ...
Fungal-bacterial endosymbiosis encompasses the mutualistic relationship between a fungus and intracellular bacteria species residing within the fungus. Many examples of endosymbiotic relationships between bacteria and plants, algae and insects exist and have been well characterized, however fungal-bacteria endosymbiosis has been less well described.
Treatment requires both systemic oral treatment with most of the same drugs used in humans—terbinafine, fluconazole, or itraconazole—as well as a topical "dip" therapy. [ 28 ] Because of the usually longer hair shafts in pets compared to those of humans, the area of infection and possibly all of the longer hair of the pet must be clipped to ...
