  • Monograph on Dematiaceous Fungi
    Monograph On Dematiaceous fungi A guide for description of dematiaceous fungi fungi of medical importance, diseases caused by them, diagnosis and treatment By Mohamed Refai and Heidy Abo El-Yazid Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Cairo University 2014 1 Preface The first time I saw cultures of dematiaceous fungi was in the laboratory of Prof. Seeliger in Bonn, 1962, when I attended a practical course on moulds for one week. Then I handled myself several cultures of black fungi, as contaminants in Mycology Laboratory of Prof. Rieth, 1963-1964, in Hamburg. When I visited Prof. DE Varies in Baarn, 1963. I was fascinated by the tremendous number of moulds in the Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures, Baarn, Netherlands. On the other hand, I was proud, that El-Sheikh Mahgoub, a Colleague from Sundan, wrote an internationally well-known book on mycetoma. I have never seen cases of dematiaceous fungal infections in Egypt, therefore, I was very happy, when I saw the collection of mycetoma cases reported in Egypt by the eminent Egyptian Mycologist, Prof. Dr Mohamed Taha, Zagazig University. To all these prominent mycologists I dedicate this monograph. Prof. Dr. Mohamed Refai, 1.5.2014 Heinz Seeliger Heinz Rieth Gerard de Vries, El-Sheikh Mahgoub Mohamed Taha 2 Contents 1.

This is the first case report in the existing literature. A 54-year-old male was referred to us after a penetration injury, and prompt primary closure was performed. Two weeks after surgery, an epithelial defect and stromal melting were observed near the laceration site. P. obo- vatum was identified, and then identified again on repeated cultures. Subsequently, Natacin was administered every two hours. Amniotic membrane transplantation was performed due to a persistent epithelial defect and impending corneal perforation. Three weeks after amniotic membrane transplantation, the epithelial defect had completely healed, but the cornea had turned opaque. Six months after amniotic membrane transplantation, visual acuity was light perception only, and corneal thinning and diffuse corneal opacification remained opaque. Six months after amniotic membrane transplantation, visual acuity was light perception only, and corneal thin- ning and diffuse corneal opacification remained. Key Words: Corneal ulcer, Fungi, Phialemonium obovatum Members of the Phialemonium genus are dematiaceous Case Report fungi, which are known as causative fungi for opportunis- tic infection in immunocompromised hosts.

Abstract: In a recent monograph on the genus Rosellinia, type specimens worldwide were revised and re-classified using a morphological approach. Among them, some came from Pier Andrea Saccardo’s fungarium stored in the Herbarium of the Padova Botanical Garden. In this work, we taxonomically re-examine via a morphological and molecular approach nine different Rosellinia sensu Saccardo types. ITS1 and/or ITS2 sequences were successfully obtained applying Illumina MiSeq technology and phylogenetic analyses were carried out in order to elucidate their current taxonomic position. Only the Citation: Forin, N.; Vizzini, A.; ITS1 sequence was recovered for Rosellinia areolata, while for R. geophila, only the ITS2 sequence was Fainelli, F.; Ercole, E.; Baldan, B. recovered. We proposed here new combinations for Rosellinia chordicola, R. geophila and R. horridula, Taxonomic Re-Examination of Nine R. ambigua R.

The patient was initially misdiagnosed with M. mycetomatis eumy- a1111111111 cetoma based on the grains' morphological and cytological features. However, further a1111111111 aerobic culture of the black grains generated a melanised fungus identified as C. atrobrun- a1111111111 neum by conventional morphological methods and by internal transcribed spacer 2 a1111111111 (ITS2) ribosomal RNA gene sequencing. This is the first-ever report of C. atrobrunneum as a eumycetoma-causative organism of black grain eumycetoma. It is essential that the causative organism is identified to the species level, as this is important for proper patient management and to predict treatment outcome and prognosis.

  • First Report of Six Sordariomycetes Fungi Isolated from Plant Litter in Freshwater Ecosystems of Korea
    The Korean Journal of Mycology www.kjmycology.or.kr RESEARCH ARTICLE First report of six Sordariomycetes fungi isolated from plant litter in freshwater ecosystems of Korea * Jaeduk Goh , Hye Yeon Mun, Yu-Jeong Jeon, Namil Chung, Young-Hwan Park, Sangkyu Park, Hyejin Hwang and Wonsu Cheon Fungi Research Team, Nakdonggang National Institute of Biological Resources, Sangju 37242, Korea * Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT Freshwater ecosystems provide a complex environment for microorganisms. In this study, we isolated diverse fungal strains from plant litter in freshwaters. These strains were identified using molecular phylogenetic analyses of rDNA and/or other gene sequences (TUB, GAPDH, and EF1). In addition, we examined their morphological characteristics by microscopy and cultural characteristics on several media. We identified six previously unrecorded Sordariomycetes species in Korea, i.e., Colletotrichum godetiae, Discosia rubi, Robillarda sessilis, Monochaetia dimorphospora, Idriella lunata, and Phialemoniopsis endophytica. Of these, D. rubi and M. dimorphospora exhibited high extracellular amylase, lipase, and protease activities, suggesting that these fungal isolates might play an important role as decomposers in freshwater ecosystems. Plant litter could thus be a good source for isolating and investigating previously undocumented fungal species in freshwater environments. Keywords: Freshwater, Plant litter, Sordariomycetes OPEN ACCESS pISSN : 0253-651X eISSN : 2383-5249 Kor. J. Mycol. 2020 June, 48(2): 103-116 INTRODUCTION https://doi.org/10.4489/KJM.20200012 Freshwater ecosystems encompass several habitat types, providing a diverse environment for microorganisms. Plant litter, such as fallen leaves and decaying wood, are typical habitats for several freshwater fungi. Freshwater fungi, which represent a poly-phylogenetic group, are taxonomically diverse Received: April 13, 2020 Revised: June 13, 2020 organisms colonizing the substrate in aquatic or semi-aquatic environments [1-2].
