NOVOTNÝ D., LUKÁŠ J., BROŽOVÁ J., RŮŽIČKOVÁ P. (2019): Comparison of the occurrence of fungi causing postharvest diseases of apples grown in organic and integrated production systems in orchards in the Czech Republic.   [Malus domestica, organic production, integrated production, Neofabraea, Penicillium.]  Czech Mycology 71(1): 99-121   (published: 28th June, 2019)
  abstract   During the years 2013–2015, the occurrence of fungi causing postharvest diseases of apples was evaluated in three apple orchards with integrated and organic production systems in the Czech Republic. The postharvest disease fungi were more frequently recorded in fruits from organically cultivated apple trees (average 29.97%) than those from integrated production (17.67%). This difference is statistically significant. Neofabraea, Penicillium, Alternaria and a sterile grey mycelium were the most frequently recorded taxa in apples grown in organic and integrated production systems. There were also significant differences in the frequency of occurrence of the most frequent fungal taxa between years. In 2013 and 2014, Neofabraea was the most frequently isolated genus in both cultivation systems, whereas in 2015, Penicillium was the most frequently recorded genus also in both cultivation systems, which was likely caused by the low precipitation in the 2015 growing season.

MARWA ABDEL-KAREEM M., ZOHRI A.A. (2017): Inhibition of three toxigenic fungal strains and their toxins production using selenium nanoparticles.   [Se-NPs, mycotoxigenic moulds, mycotoxins, aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, sterigmatocystin]  Czech Mycology 69(2): 193-204   (published: 24th November, 2017)
  abstract   Spoilage and poisoning of foods by microfungi are a major problem, especially in developing countries. While selenium nanoparticles (Se-NPs) have been used for a wide range of applications including antibacterial, antioxidant and anticancer applications, the effects of Se-NPs on fungal strains remain for the most part unknown to date. Our research is a pioneering attempt to evaluate the antifungal activity and antimycotoxin properties of Se-NPs (32 nm). Se-NPs at different concentrations were evaluated against the growth and mycotoxins production of three toxigenic fungal strains. The growth of Aspergillus parasiticus, A. ochraceus and A. nidulans was completely inhibited using 7000, 9000 and 3000 μg/ml of Se-NPs, respectively, while the complete inhibition in aflatoxins, ochratoxin A and sterigmatocystin production was reported by addition of 2000, 2000, and 800 μg/ml of Se-NPs, respectively. Results of this study show that Se-NPs were effective against the fungal strains tested and their toxin production. These results suggest that Se-NPs could be used as an effective microfungicide in agricultural and food safety applications against toxigenic microfungi.

OSTRÝ V., ŠKARKOVÁ J., PROCHÁZKOVÁ I., KUBÁTOVÁ A., MALÍŘ F., RUPRICH J. (2007): Mycobiota of Czech wine grapes and occurrence of ochratoxin A and Alternaria mycotoxins in fresh grape juice, must and wine.   [mycobiota, grapes, grape juice, wine, ochratoxin A, Alternaria mycotoxins, HPTLC]  Czech Mycology 59(2): 241-254   (published: 28th December, 2007)
  abstract   The aim of this study was to monitor the mycobiota of wine grapes, occurrence of ochratoxigenic microfungi in wine grapes and occurrence of ochratoxin A and Alternaria mycotoxins in fresh grape juice, must and wine from domestic crops in the year 2004. Thirteen samples of wine grapes (white /nine samples/ and red /four samples/) were collected during harvesting in the Znojmo wine region, SE Moravia. One sample of a wine grape variety was represented by three subsamples of wine grapes, which were sampled in left, middle and right part of the vineyard. Five wine grape berries per bunch were randomly selected, plated onto Dichloran Rose Bengal Chloramphenicol (DRBC) agar, and incubated for 5–7 days at 25 °C. Alternaria alternata, Cladosporium herbarum, C. cladosporioides, Penicillium expansum, P. aurantiogriseum, P. spinulosum and Rhizopus nigricans were isolated from the samples. Ochratoxigenic microfungi, e. g. Aspergillus carbonarius, and other species of section Nigri, A. ochraceus, Penicillium verrucosum and P. nordicum, were not found in the samples.The HPTLC method for quantification of ochratoxin A (OTA) and Alternaria mycotoxins (alternariol (AOH), alternariol monomethyl ether (AME), altenuene (ALT), and tenuazonic acid (TeA)) in fresh grape juice (13 samples), must (13 samples) and wine (13 samples) was used. The limit of quantification (LoQ) was 8 ng/l for OTA, 1.5 μg/l for AOH, 1.5 μg/l for AME, 1.5 μg/l for ALT and 7.5 μg/l for TeA.Occurrence of OTA and Alternaria mycotoxins in fresh grape juice, must and wine was not proved.

LYSKOVÁ P. (2007): Saprotrophic microscopic fungi and dermatophytes accompanying infections of the skin and nails of patients in the Moravian-Silesian Region (Czech Republic).   [saprotrophic microscopic fungi, dermatophytes, superficial mycose, Scopulariopsis brevicaulis]  Czech Mycology 59(1): 125-137   (published: 28th June, 2007)
  abstract   Over a 19-month period, the spectrum of saprotrophic microscopic fungi isolated from 245 patients in the Moravian-Silesian Region (Czech Republic) was analysed. Saprotrophic microscopic fungi were isolated from nails (90 %) and skin (10 %). None was isolated from hair. The material was the most frequently positive for the presence of Scopulariopsis brevicaulis (32.6 %) followed by Cladosporium sphaerospermum (5.3 %), Aspergillus versicolor (4.0 %), Geomyces pannorum (4.0 %) and others.Dermatophytes and saprotrophic microscopic fungi were both studied within one year and represented 1110 isolates. Dermatophytes were isolated in most of the cases and represented 943 isolations (85 %). The saprotrophic microscopic fungus Scopulariopsis brevicaulis is a known causative agent of onychomycosis. In the evaluation including dermatophytes it ended in the 3rd position with 5.2 % of isolations behind Trichophyton rubrum (80 %) and T. mentagrophytes (8 %).

NOVÁKOVÁ A., PIŽL V. (2003): Mycoflora in the intestine of Eisenia andrei (Oligochaeta, Lumbricidae) and in vermiculture substrates.   [cattle manure, saprotrophic and cellulolytic microfungi, earthworms]  Czech Mycology 55(1-2): 83-102   (published: 23rd July, 2003)
  abstract   Mycoflora of three commercial vermiculture systems based on cattle manure derived sub­ strates and Eisenia andrei earthworms was studied using several isolation methods. A total of 172 taxa of saprotrophic micromycetes were isolated (19 taxa of Zygomycetes, 9 taxa of Ascomycetes and 144 taxa of mitosporic fungi). Aspergillus fumigatus was the most frequent microfungal species in the intestine of Eisenia andrei. In vermicuture substrates, Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus fumigatus were among species isolated very frequently by the soil dilution method, while Rhizopus stolonifer was estimated as frequent species using the soil washing isolation technique.

ŠIMONOVIČOVÁ A. (2001): Supplement to the Checklist of non-vascular and vascular plants of Slovakia. The species of microscopic fungi of the order Eurotiales.   [new records of microscopic fungi (Eurotiales), Checklist of non-vascular and vascular plants of Slovakia]  Czech Mycology 53(2): 173-188   (published: 20th February, 2002)
  abstract   Submited are 50 species of microscopic fungi of the order Eurotiales, which are not listed in the Checklist of non-vascular and vascular plants of Slovakia, part Fungi (Lizoň and Bacigálová 1998). The first group is presented by those microscopic fungi which were isolated only once so far. So we consider them to be scarce or rare. From among 30 species of microscopic fungi more than a halfbelongs to the genus Penicillium (16 species ) or genus Aspergillus (6 species ). The genera Eupenicillium, Eurotium and Paecilomyces have two new species, Emericella and Merimbla only one species. The second group is presented by more frequently isolated species of microscopic fungi. From among 20 species the genus Penicillium dominates with 8 species, followed by the genus Aspergillus with 4 species. Other genera(Byssochlamys, Dichotomomyces, Eupenicillium, Eurotium, Fennellia, Paecilomyces and Talarornyces) are presented with one or two species. From the total number of 50 species of microscopic fungi the prevailing part was isolated from different soils (73.3-75.0 %), from different food stuffs (3.3-30.0 %) and from other sources (23.3-45.0 %), including drinking water, dwellings and different materials in depositories and archives.

NOVÁKOVÁ-ŘEPOVÁ A., CHALUPSKÝ J. (1993): Microscopic fungi isolated from Fridericia galba (Oligochaeta, Enchytraeidae).  Česká Mykologie 46(3-4): 251-255   (published: 25th August, 1993)
  abstract   Microscopic fungi were isolated from the enchytraeid Fridericia galba (Hoffmeister, 1843), and from surrounding soil. Isolation was done from aseptically squashed enchytraeid bodies and from enchytraeid excrements prepared by defaecation into sterile conditions. The cultivation media were soil extract agar, cherry decoction agar and beer wort agar. A total o f 39 fungal species was found, 29 in the excrements and 19 in the soil. In most cases, fungi isolated from the soil differed from those isolated from the excrements. Feeding preference and seasonal variation were not demonstrated. Spores o f fungi were viable after passage through the enchytraeid gut. The biochemical activity o f the isolated fungi indicates preferential feeding on plant remains where the degradation of cellulose, pectin and xylose predominates.
