A Strain of Aspergillus Forming Abnormal Fructification Structures

Abstract

A strain of the genus Aspergillus forming fructification structures with remarkable anomalies in conidiophore, in the vesicle and the conidial head formation is described. The strain shows a combination of characteristics typical of both genera Aspergillus and Penicillium. On this basis, a close phylogenetic relationship between penicilli and aspergilli is postulated.
