Two new keratinophilic species, Chrysosporium europae and C.mephiticum, are described and illustrated. The differences between these and other similar species are discussed.
Summary: The distribution of mating types of 35 strains of the “Microsporum gypseum complex” has been studied in Catalonian soils (Spain). 45.7% of the checked isolates produce fertile ascocarps when they are crossed with the tester strains. The mating types of the three species of the complex appear in a similar proportion, with the exception of Nannizzia gypsea (+) which has not been identified on any occasion.
Zusammenfassung: Die Verteilung der compatiblen Kreuzungstypen von 35 Stämmen des Microsporum‐gypseum‐Komplexes aus katalonischem Boden wurden untersucht. 45,7% der untersuchten Isolate produzierten fruchthare Askokarpe, wenn sie mit den Versuchsstämmen gekreuzt wurden. Die compatiblen Kreuzungstypen der drei Spezies des Komplexes sind in gleicher Häufigkeit identifiziert worden mit Ausnahme von Nannizzia gypsea (+), die in keinem Fall identifiziert wurde.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
