First report of Byssochlamys spectabilis as a teleomorph of Paecilomyces variotii from Iran

During 2009–10, cheese samples were collected from shops and cheese factories in Fars and Khuzestan provinces. Isolates were recovered from cheese using malt extract agar (MEA) and potato dextrose agar (PDA). Teleomorphic characteristics such as morphology of ascocarps, asci, ascospores and anamorphic characteristics such as conidiophores, phialides, conidia and chlamydospores were investigated...

First report of Chromelosporium fulvum from Iran

During spring 2011, some fungal isolates were recovered from sterilized soil (Fig. 1, A) or vermiculite, in pots and flats in greenhouses in Shiraz University, using malt extract agar and potato dextrose agar (Fig. 1, B). Anamorphic characteristics such as conidiophores and conidia were investigated. Conidiophores 125–1350 × 7.5–15 µm, hyaline, erect, broad, septate, branched once, twice (Fig. ...

First report of Aquanectria penicillioides from Iran

During 2015–16, the presence of micromycetes species in aquatic ecosystems was studied in Iran. Samples were collected from rivers, lakes and wetlands. For isolation, agar disks were transferred to plates containing water samples. The plates were incubated at 25­–27° C for 21 days in 12 h light/12 h dark condition. Then from the mycelium grown on the agar disks, pure cultures were obtained. Fin...
