During isolation of Venturia inaequalis (Cooke) G. Winter from apple leaves and fruits in the laboratory, some fungi appeared as culture contaminants. From these, an isolate was identified as Aspergillus medius R. Meissn. (teleomorph known as Eurotium medium C.F.W. Meissn.), based on morphological and molecular data (sequences of ITS rDNA).

Endophytic fungi generally reside asymptomatically in the tissues of higher plants and generally are source of original amidase group of enzymes. Asparaginase is an important anticancer enzyme, endophytic fungi Eurotium Sp. was isolated from rhizomes of Curcuma longa and evaluated for asparaginase production by qualitative plate assay on modified Czapex dox’s agar and quantitative analysis by N...

Mould growth is not accepted on most types of North European meat products and is considered as both an economic and aesthetic problem for the producers. In order to determine the mycobiota in processing areas of fermented sausage and liver pâté, filamentous fungi were isolated from air, equipment and raw materials in the processing areas of two fermented sausage processing plants and two liver...

(teleomorph known as eurotium medium c.f.w. meissn.), based on morphological and molecular data (sequences of its rdna).

This study reports the composition of the mycobiota growing on the surface of Culatello (a typical Italian meat product) and occurring in the environments of three processing plants. Samples were collected in both winter and summer. A total of 84 culatelli and 14 samples from the plant environment were examined. A total of 331 (from food samples) and 2030 (from air samples) fungal isolates belo...

Fuzhuan brick tea is a dark produced using plant leaves, and its quality strongly affected by Eurotium cristatum. The superior cristatum strain could enhance functional components in tea, improving economic value. To research the lipid-lowering substance of from Anhua country production area, several wild-type strains were screened for lovastatin production. Of all 20 strains, 6 produce lovasta...
