Penicillium Amapaense sp. nov. Exilicaulis Section and New Records of Penicillium Labradorum in Brazil Isolated from Amazon River Sediments with Potential Applications in Agriculture and Biotechnology
Abstract:The genus Penicillium is recognized for its ability to produce bioactive molecules with a wide range of biotechnological applications. Currently, the genus is distributed in 28 sections, with more than 50 species in the Exilicaulis section. Representative species of this section are responsible for the production of antimicrobial compounds, but they can also produce genotoxic compounds that affect commercial mushroom production or cause disease in immunosuppressed animals. In the present study, based on morpho… Show more
