New Taxa in Aspergillus Section Usti
available online at www.studiesinmycology.org StudieS in Mycology 69: 81–97. 2011. doi:10.3114/sim.2011.69.06 New taxa in Aspergillus section Usti R.A. Samson1*, J. Varga1,2, M. Meijer1 and J.C. Frisvad3 1CBS-KNAW Fungal Biodiversity Centre, Uppsalalaan 8, NL-3584 CT Utrecht, the Netherlands; 2Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Science and Informatics, University of Szeged, H-6726 Szeged, Közép fasor 52, Hungary; 3BioCentrum-DTU, Building 221, Technical University of Denmark, DK-2800 Kgs. Lyngby, Denmark. *Correspondence: Robert A. Samson, [email protected] Abstract: Based on phylogenetic analysis of sequence data, Aspergillus section Usti includes 21 species, inclucing two teleomorphic species Aspergillus heterothallicus (= Emericella heterothallica) and Fennellia monodii. Aspergillus germanicus sp. nov. was isolated from indoor air in Germany. This species has identical ITS sequences with A. insuetus CBS 119.27, but is clearly distinct from that species based on β-tubulin and calmodulin sequence data. This species is unable to grow at 37 °C, similarly to A. keveii and A. insuetus. Aspergillus carlsbadensis sp. nov. was isolated from the Carlsbad Caverns National Park in New Mexico. This taxon is related to, but distinct from a clade including A. calidoustus, A. pseudodeflectus, A. insuetus and A. keveii on all trees. This species is also unable to grow at 37 °C, and acid production was not observed on CREA. Aspergillus californicus sp. nov. is proposed for an isolate from chamise chaparral (Adenostoma fasciculatum) in California. It is related to a clade including A. subsessilis and A. kassunensis on all trees. This species grew well at 37 °C, and acid production was not observed on CREA. -
DNA Fingerprinting Analysis of Petromyces Alliaceus (Aspergillus Section Flavi)
276 1039 DNA fingerprinting analysis of Petromyces alliaceus (Aspergillus section Flavi) Cesaria E. McAlpin and Donald T. Wicklow Abstract: The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of the Aspergillus flavus pAF28 DA probe to pro duce DA fingerprints for distinguishing among genotypes of Petromyces alliaceus (Aspergillus section Flavi), a fun gus considered responsible for the ochratoxin A contamination that is occasionally observed in California fig orchards. P alliaceus (14 isolates), Petromyces albertensis (one isolate), and seven species of Aspergillus section Circumdati (14 isolates) were analyzed by DA fingerprinting using a repetitive sequence DNA probe pAF28 derived from A. flavus. The presence of hybridization bands with the DA probe and with the P alliaceus or P albertensis genomic DA in dicates a close relationship between A. flavus and P alliaceus. Twelve distinct DA fingerprint groups or genotypes were identified among the 15 isolates of Petromyces. Conspecificity of P alliaceus and P albertensis is suggested based on DA fingerprints. Species belonging to Aspergillus section Circumdati hybridized only slightly at the 7.0-kb region with the repetitive DA probe, unlike the highly polymorphic hybridization patterns obtained from P alliaceus and A. jZavus, suggesting very little homology of the probe to Aspergillus section Circumdati genomic DNA. The pAF28 DA probe offers a tool for typing and monitoring specific P alliaceus clonal populations and for estimating the genotypic diversity of P alliaceus in orchards, -
Lists of Names in Aspergillus and Teleomorphs As Proposed by Pitt and Taylor, Mycologia, 106: 1051-1062, 2014 (Doi: 10.3852/14-0
Lists of names in Aspergillus and teleomorphs as proposed by Pitt and Taylor, Mycologia, 106: 1051-1062, 2014 (doi: 10.3852/14-060), based on retypification of Aspergillus with A. niger as type species John I. Pitt and John W. Taylor, CSIRO Food and Nutrition, North Ryde, NSW 2113, Australia and Dept of Plant and Microbial Biology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-3102, USA Preamble The lists below set out the nomenclature of Aspergillus and its teleomorphs as they would become on acceptance of a proposal published by Pitt and Taylor (2014) to change the type species of Aspergillus from A. glaucus to A. niger. The central points of the proposal by Pitt and Taylor (2014) are that retypification of Aspergillus on A. niger will make the classification of fungi with Aspergillus anamorphs: i) reflect the great phenotypic diversity in sexual morphology, physiology and ecology of the clades whose species have Aspergillus anamorphs; ii) respect the phylogenetic relationship of these clades to each other and to Penicillium; and iii) preserve the name Aspergillus for the clade that contains the greatest number of economically important species. Specifically, of the 11 teleomorph genera associated with Aspergillus anamorphs, the proposal of Pitt and Taylor (2014) maintains the three major teleomorph genera – Eurotium, Neosartorya and Emericella – together with Chaetosartorya, Hemicarpenteles, Sclerocleista and Warcupiella. Aspergillus is maintained for the important species used industrially and for manufacture of fermented foods, together with all species producing major mycotoxins. The teleomorph genera Fennellia, Petromyces, Neocarpenteles and Neopetromyces are synonymised with Aspergillus. The lists below are based on the List of “Names in Current Use” developed by Pitt and Samson (1993) and those listed in MycoBank (www.MycoBank.org), plus extensive scrutiny of papers publishing new species of Aspergillus and associated teleomorph genera as collected in Index of Fungi (1992-2104). -

Montserrat Calderón Santoyo Co - director: Dr. Juan Arturo Ragazzo Sánchez Tepic, Nayarit Febrero 2018 RESUMEN Casas-Junco, Paloma Patricia. DCA. Instituto Tecnológico de Tepic. Febrero de 2018. Efecto de plasma frío en la reducción de ocratoxina A en café de Nayarit (México). Directora: Montserrat Calderón Santoyo. La ocratoxina A (OTA) se considera uno de los principales problemas emergentes en la industria del café, dado que el proceso de tostado no asegura su destrucción total. El objetivo de este estudio fue identificar las especies fúngicas productoras de OTA en café tostado de Nayarit, así como evaluar el efecto de plasma frío en la inhibición de esporas de hongos micotoxigénicos, detoxificación de OTA, así como en algunos parámetros de calidad del café. Se aislaron e identificaron hongos micotoxigénicos mediante claves dicotómicas, después se analizó la producción de OTA y aflatoxinas (AFB1, AFB2, AFG2, AFG1) por HPLC con detector de fluorescencia. Las cepas productoras de toxinas se identificaron por PCR utilizando los primers ITS1 e ITS4. Después se aplicó plasma frío en muestras de café tostado inoculadas con hongos micotoxigénicos (A. westerdijikiae, A. steynii, A. niger y A. versicolor) a diferentes tiempos 0, 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 y 18 min, con una potencia de entrada 30 W y un voltaje de salida de 850 voltios y helio publicitario (1.5 L/min). -
