Agrocybe aegerita is an important mushroom cultivated in Korea, with good feel and a peculiar fragrance. A. aegerita can be cultivated throughout the year using culture bottles but is more susceptible to contamination than other mushrooms. Twenty-two pathogens were isolated from the fruiting bodies and compost of A. aegerita, and seven isolates were isolated from Pleurotus ostreatus to compare ...

Morphological and molecular methods were used to identify the statues of an isolate, EFY-36, a taxolproducing endophytic fungus. Based on the morphology of the fungal colony, the mechanism of spore production and the characteristics of the spores, the isolate is Mucor spp. Furthermore, the analysis of 18S ribosome RNA sequence of the isolate was achieved using PCR technology. The results showed...

A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method was developed that was capable of detecting a wide range of medically important fungi from clinical specimens. The primer pair was designed in conserved sequences of 18S-ribosomal RNA genes shared by most fungi. The lower limit of detection of this PCR technique was 1 pg of Candida albicans genomic DNA by ethidium bromide staining and 100 fg after Southe...

A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method capable of detecting both Aspergillus fumigatus infections, pulmonary non-fumigatus Aspergillus species (spp.) and Penicillium spp. from clinical specimens was established. The primer pair was designed on the basis of the sequence of the 18S-ribosomal RNA gene of A. fumigatus and P. notatum. A 385 bp product was successfully amplified by this PCR method ...

the objective of this study was to investigate fungal flora of the hair coat of domestic golden hamsterswith and without skin lesions. sixty hamsters were examined in the small animal teaching hospitalof the faculty of veterinary medicine, ferdowsi university of mashhad, and mashhad, iran. asteriletoothbrush was used for sample collection, from the entire body of the hamsters, all skin lesions ...

The present study aimed to evaluate the ability for biotransformation of the Diels-Alder adduct tricyclo[6.2.1.0(2,7)]undeca-4,9-dien-3,6-dione (1) and two synthetic derivatives by the saprobe fungus Mucor ramosissimus Samutsevitsch. Products from oxidation, isomerization and, regioselective and enantioselective reduction were achieved.

The physiological properties and temperature responses of the first strain of Leucothrix mucor ever to be isolated from a warm, tropical seacoast area are described.

In order to know the consequences of effluent on microflora soil and its respective fertility, size experimental sample was defined, which represented by five locations, from ten portions were collected for microbiological analysis. Unimpacted samples served as controls. Total counts heterotrophic bacteria, coliforms, fungi assessed using pour plate spread method. The result showed that total c...

This research is dedicated to a relevant topic in veterinary medicine, which connected with studying of specific features systems that are responsible for productive and reproductive functioning cattle. The reported study was funded by RFBR Sverdlovsk region, project number 20-416-660004 «Molecular genetic phenotypic characteristics the microbiota system cattle». Samples secretory product mamma...
