Penicillium astrolabium is a fungus species of the genus of Penicillium . [2] [3]
Penicillium roqueforti is a common saprotrophic fungus in the genus Penicillium. Widespread in nature, it can be isolated from soil, decaying organic matter, and plants.
Penicillium rubens is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium and was the first species known to produce the antibiotic penicillin. It was first described by Philibert Melchior Joseph Ehi Biourge in 1923. For the discovery of penicillin from this species Alexander Fleming shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1945. The original penicillin-producing type has been variously identified as Penicillium rubrum, P. notatum, and P. chrysogenum among others, but genomic comparison and phylogenetic analysis in 2011 resolved that it is P. rubens. It is the best source of penicillins and produces benzylpenicillin (G), phenoxymethylpenicillin (V) and octanoylpenicillin (K). It also produces other important bioactive compounds such as andrastin, chrysogine, fungisporin, roquefortine, and sorbicillins.
Penicillium allii is an anamorph fungus species of the genus of Penicillium. Penicillium allii is a pathogen of garlic.
Penicillium brocae is a fungal species of the genus Penicillium, which was isolated in Chiapas in Mexico. It is a symbiont of the mangrove tree Avicennia marina.
Penicillium catenatum is an anamorph fungus species of the genus of Penicillium.
Penicillium cinnamopurpureum is a fungus species of the genus of Penicillium.
Penicillium coffeae is a fungus species of the genus of Penicillium which was isolated from the plant Coffea arabica L. in Hawaii. Insects play a role in spreading Penicillium coffeae.
Penicillium cyaneum is a species of the genus of Penicillium which was isolated from an oil-field. Penicillium cyaneum produces fatty acid, Brefeldin A and the antibiotic Cyanein
Penicillium decaturense is a species of the genus of Penicillium which was isolated from a fungus in North America. Penicillium decaturense produces citrinin, 15-Deoxyoxalicine B, decaturins A and decaturins A
Penicillium dravuni is a monoverticillate and sclerotium forming species of the genus of Penicillium which was isolated from the alga Dictyosphaeria versluyii in Dravuni on Fiji. Penicillium dravuni produces dictyosphaeric acids A, dictyosphaeric acids B and carviolin.
Penicillium inusitatum is a species of the genus of Penicillium.
Penicillium janczewskii is an anamorph and filamentous species of the genus of Penicillium which was isolated from the rhizosphere of Vernonia herbacea. Penicillium janczewskii produces griseofulvin
Penicillium neocrassum is a terverticillate species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which was isolated from grapes.
Penicillium ochrosalmoneum is an anamorph, ascosporic species in the genus Penicillium which produces citreoviridin.
Penicillium sucrivorum is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium. Described as new to science in 2014, it was discovered during a fungal survey of the fynbos biome in the Western Cape of South Africa. Closely related species include P. aurantiacobrunneum, P. cairnsense, P. miczynksii, P. neomiczynskii, and P. quebecense, all of which group phylogenetically in the same clade as P. sucrivorum.
Penicillium sanguifluum is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium. It was first described scientifically in 1912 by Norwegian mycologist Olav Johan Sopp, who called it Citromyces sanguifluus. Philibert Biourge transferred it to the genus Penicillium in 1923. P. sanguifluum is classified in the section Citrina of Penicillium.
Penicillium pseudostromaticum is an anamorph species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which was isolated from the mushroom Piptoporus betulinus which grew on the tree Betula populifolia.
Penicillium rubrum is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which produces kojic acid, mitorubrin, mitorubrinol, rubratoxin A, rubratoxin B rubralactone, rubramin and occurs in grain corn and soybeans. Penicillium rubrum is similar to the species Penicillium chrysogenum.
Penicillium solitum is an anamorphic, mesophilic, salinity-tolerant, and psychrotolerant species of fungus in the genus Penicillium. It is known to produce various compounds including polygalacturonase, compactin, cyclopenin, cyclopenol, cyclopeptin, dehydrocompactin, dihydrocyclopeptin, palitantin, solistatin, solistatinol, viridicatin, viridicatol.
