SUKOVÁ M. (2004): Fungi on Juncus trifidus in the Czech Republic. I.   [Ascomycetes, anamorphic fungi, Hysteronaevia minutissima, Hysteropezizelladiminuens, Mycosphaerella perexigua var. minima, Naeviella paradoxa, Septoria, taxonomy, ecology]  Czech Mycology 56(1-2): 63-84   (published: 12th August, 2004)
  abstract   Fungi on Juncus trifidus were collected and studied during they ears 1998-2003, most intensively in 2002. Almost all known localities of this relict plant in the Czech Republic were visited. In this first contribution, 14 species of ascomycetes and anamorphic fungi are mentioned. Populations of Juncus trifidus in the Sudetes and Hercynian mountains are small in comparison with populations in the Alps and Carpathians. However, three species of arcto-alpine fungi (Hysteronaevia minutissima, Hysteropezizella diminuens, Naeviella paradoxa) and Lachnum roseum have been found there as new records for the Czech Republic. The richest localities of fungi on Juncus trifidus are Mt. Sněžka (Krkonoše Mts., Sudetes) and Jezerní stěna rock wall in the cirque of Černé jezero lake (Šumava Mts., Hercynicum).

FASSATIOVÁ O. (1982): New or rare records of some Deuteromycetes and Ascomycetes from Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 36(2): 100-108   (published: 1982)
  abstract   A new collection of a remarkable discomycete Daleomyces phillipsii (Massée) Seaver is reported from Southern Moravia, Czechoslovakia. A detailed description of macro and micro-features with emphasis on conspicuous giant size of fruitbodies is given. Taxonomic problems of this species known in present literature as Peziza proteana (Boudier) Seaver forma sparassoides (Boud.) Korf and of the genus Daleomyces Setch. are discussed. The only previous collection of this fungus described from Czechoslovakia as Aleuria proteana var. slavkoviensis Neuwirth (1946) is evaluated too. The genus Daleomyces with two known species is placed in the family Pezizaceae and a new combination – Daleomyces campbellii (Sacc.) J. Mor. c. n. is made.

MINTER D.W. (1981): Microfungi on needles, twigs and cones of pines in Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 35(2): 90-101   (published: 1981)
  abstract   One hundred and forty-seven species of microfungi are listed from rotting needles, twigs and cones of pines in Czechoslovakia (mostly from Bohemia). Thirty-seven of these are reported as new from this region. The Czechoslovak pine mycoflora is compared briefly with those of other countries and is found more varied than any previously recorded.

JECHOVÁ V. (1965): Some fungal parasits of Digitalis lanata Ehrh.  Česká Mykologie 19(1): 57-63   (published: 1965)
  abstract   The fungi causing diseases of cultivated Digitalis lanata in 1962–1963 include Colletotrichum fuscum, Fusarium oxysporum, and Botrytis cinerea. Their morphology, biology, and symptoms are described. These pathogens spread mainly through seeds and plant debris and further by rain, wind, insects, or cultivation activities.

KRUPODOROVA T., BARSHTEYN V., KIZITSKA T., RATUSHNYAK V., BLUME Y. (2023): Antagonistic activity of selected macromycetes against two harmful micromycetes.   [ascomycetes, Aspergillus niger, basidiomycetes, dual-culture, Penicillium polonicum.]  Czech Mycology 75(1): 85-100   (published: 23rd June, 2023)
  abstract   Competition between 31 macromycete species and two harmful micromycetes Aspergillus niger and Penicillium polonicum was evaluated using dual-culture plate assay. All investigated fungi, except for Inonotus obliquus and Lepista luscina, possessed different levels of antagonistic activity against the tested micromycetes. Hypsizygus marmoreus and Lyophyllum shimeji were inactive against A. niger. Morchella esculenta and Oxyporus obducens were passive in the case of co-growth with P. polonicum. The study of fungal interactions showed variability in types of reactions and level of their visualisation. Co-cultivation of the studied species resulted in the following reactions: deadlock after mycelial contact and at a distance, partial or complete replacement after initial deadlock on contact. In general, the studied macromycetes showed moderate activity against the two micromycetes, as 11 species showed active and 7 species moderate antagonism. Results revealed higher antagonistic activity of macromycetes against P. polonicum than in A. niger co-cultures. Wood-decaying species Ganoderma lucidum and Trametes versicolor were the most active fungi against the two tested micromycetes with a maximal antagonism index. These findings provide valuable insights which can be further explored by means of in vivo assays to find a suitable agent for the biocontrol of diseases or spoilage caused by A. niger and P. polonicum.

AL-TOUBI A.S.S., AL-SADI A.M., AL-MAHMOOLI I.H., AL-HARRASI M.M.A., AL-SABAHI J.N., VELAZHAHAN R. (2022): Volatile organic compounds emitted by mycoparasitic fungi Hypomyces perniciosus and Cladobotryum mycophilum suppress the growth of Agaricus bisporus.   [antifungal, cobweb, ethanol, wet bubble, white button mushroom.]  Czech Mycology 74(2): 141-152   (published: 14th November, 2022)
  abstract   Hypomyces perniciosus and Cladobotryum mycophilum are mycoparasitic fungi infecting Agaricus bisporus and causing wet bubble and cobweb diseases, respectively. In this work, the role of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by these fungal mycoparasites in the suppression of A. bisporus was investigated. The VOCs of H. perniciosus and C. mycophilum effectively reduced the mycelial growth of A. bisporus by 60% and 73% after 5 days of incubation, respectively, compared to that of the control as assessed by the two-sealed-base-plates assay. Further, the VOCs of H. perniciosus and C. mycophilum were collected in a headspace solid-phase microextraction procedure, and their components analysed by means of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Ethanol was identified as the major volatile component in H. perniciosus and C. mycophilum. Ethanol vapour significantly retarded the growth of A. bisporus in an in vitro assay. The results of this study suggest that ethanol produced by H. perniciosus and C. mycophilum could be involved in the suppression of A. bisporus.

NOVOTNÝ D. (2022): Contribution to the endophytic mycobiota of aerial parts of oaks.   [endophytes, Czech Republic, Quercus robur, Quercus petraea, acorns, seeds, twigs.]  Czech Mycology 74(2): 111-121   (published: 1st July, 2022)
  abstract   The endophytic mycobiota inhabiting branches of Quercus petraea from two localities in the Křivoklát area, and branches, twigs and acorns of Quercus robur from one locality near the town of Semily were studied (all sites in the Czech Republic). Seventeen fungal taxa were isolated from branches of Q. petraea. Dominant fungi were found to be Colpoma quercinum and Phoma sp. as well as sterile dark mycelium and a black yeast-like fungus close to Sarcinomyces crustaceus. Eighteen fungal taxa were found in samples of aerial parts in Quercus robur. The most frequently isolated taxa were Pezicula cinnamomea, Colpoma quercinum, Alternaria alternata agg. and Acremonium sp.

JAMALI S. (2020): First report of Paraconiothyrium fuckelii (Didymosphaeriaceae, Pleosporales), causing stem canker of Rosa hybrida, from Iran.   [Dothideomycetes, fungal disease, internal transcribed spacers, Iran mycobiota, pathogenicity.]  Czech Mycology 72(1): 71-82   (published: 29th May, 2020)
  abstract   In spring 2016, stem canker symptoms were observed on most Rosa hybrida plants in greenhouses of Kermanshah Province in Western Iran. Initial symptoms of the disease were brown necrotic lesions, mostly 8–10 mm long, on stems. The lesions eventually depressed and expanded to a long ellipse, resulting in yellowing and wilting of the foliage. Fungal colonies resembling those of Paraconiothyrium species were obtained from diseased tissues. Based on morphological and DNA sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacers ITS1 and ITS2 and the 5.8S gene the fungal isolates were identified as Paraconiothyrium fuckelii. This is the first report of stem canker disease caused by this species in Iran. Pathogenicity tests were carried out on potted Rosa hybrida plants and detached branches under controlled conditions. Pathogenicity tests demonstrated that the fungus is able to infect and cause canker symptoms on inoculated branches of healthy plants after four weeks. The pathogen was re-isolated from all inoculated plants after observation of the symptoms, thus meeting Koch’s postulates.

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.

PARVEEN S., WANI A.H., BHAT M.Y., PALA S.A. (2018): Comparative study of the antimycotic activity of aqueous and ethanolic extracts of Berberis lyceum and Rumex obtusifolius against selected rot fungi.   [plant extracts, phytochemicals, antimycotic effectiveness, minimum inhibitory concentration, inhibition zone]  Czech Mycology 70(1): 47-56   (published: 16th March, 2018)
  abstract   Two medicinal plants, Berberis lyceum and Rumex obtusifolius, were screened for the presence of various phytochemicals and for their antifungal activity. The phytochemical tests carried out in the present study demonstrated the presence of phenols, alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, quinones and terpenoids in the plant extracts. Therefore, ethanolic and aqueous extracts of these medicinal plants were evaluated for their antifungal activity against Penicillium chrysogenum, Aspergillus niger, Cladosporium herbarum and Trichothecium roseum, using the agar well diffusion method. All the plant extracts at different concentrations showed significant antifungal activity against the tested fungi. Of the two plant extracts, B. lyceum showed stronger antifungal activity than R. obtusifolius. Ethanolic extracts of both plants showed stronger mycelial growth inhibition than aqueous extracts. The ethanolic extracts of B. lyceum showed the strongest antifungal activity against Penicillium chrysogenum (inhibition zone diameter of 41 mm) followed by the ethanolic extracts of R. obtusifolius against P. chrysogenum (inhibition zone diameter 39 mm). Hence, it is concluded that these medicinal plants have a broad-spectrum antifungal activity and are a potential alternative to reduce various fungal pathogens.

MOUBASHER A.H., ABDEL-SATER M.A., SOLIMAN Z.S.M. (2018): Diversity of yeasts and filamentous fungi in mud from hypersaline and freshwater bodies in Egypt.   [fungal diversity, alkalinity, Wadi El-Natrun, lakes, Ibrahimia Canal, River Nile, molecular characterisation, ITS]  Czech Mycology 70(1): 1-32   (published: 26th January, 2018)
  abstract   The diversity of yeasts and filamentous fungi in muds from hypersaline alkaline lakes of Wadi ElNatrun and fresh water of the Nile River and Ibrahimia Canal was evaluated. The mean pH of saline water mud was 9.21, but fresh water mud registered 8.07. A total of 193 species (two varieties were distinguished in two of them) belonging to 67 genera were recovered from both muds investigated on DRBC (55 genera, 164 species), DG18 (36 genera, 117 species) and MY50G (23 genera, 76 species) media. From these, 17 species assigned to 12 genera were yeasts and 176 species and 2 varieties assigned to 55 genera were filamentous fungi. The highest numbers of fungal propagules were recovered on DRBC from freshwater mud, while the lowest on MY50G from saline water mud. Yeasts constituted a small proportion of all propagules from the two mud types on all three media, whereas filamentous fungi were the major component. However, freshwater mud samples yielded higher numbers of yeast genera and species using all three media. Candida was common in freshwater mud and rare in saline water mud, while Meyerozyma and Rhodotorula were infrequent in both muds. The remaining yeast species were recovered from freshwater mud only. Aspergillus (46 species) was the most common genus of filamentous fungi encountered in all samples, ranging in frequency from 39.82% to 96.62%; A. terreus, A. flavipes and A. niger dominated in both types of mud. Cladosporium (9 species), Fusarium (8 species), Penicillium (18 species) and Scopulariopsis (7 species) were encountered in both types of mud. Notably, 47 filamentous species were isolated only on the media with lower water activity (DG18, MY50G).

PARVEEN S., WANI A.H., BHAT M.Y., KOKA J.A. (2016): Biological control of postharvest fungal rots of rosaceous fruits using microbial antagonists and plant extracts - a review.   [biological control, postharvest diseases, microbial pesticides, rosaceous fruits]  Czech Mycology 68(1): 41-66   (published: 1st February, 2016)
  abstract   This article aims to give a comprehensive review on the use of microbial antagonists (fungi and bacteria), botanicals and compost extracts as biocontrol agents against different pathogenic fungi causing postharvest fungal rots in rosaceous fruits which shows that they can play an important role in the biomanagement of fungi causing rot diseases. Plant extracts reported in the literature against pathogenic fungi indicate that they can act as a good biological resource for producing safe biofungicides. However most of the work has been done under experimental conditions rather than field conditions. There is still a need for research to develop suitable formulations of biofungicides from these microbial biocontrol agents and plant extracts. The review reveals that extensive ecological research is also required in order to achieve optimum utilisation of biological resources to manage various postharvest diseases of fruits.

ABDEL-HAFEZ S.I.I., ABO-ELYOUSR K.A.M., ABDEL-RAHIM I.R. (2015): Leaf surface and endophytic fungi associated with onion leaves and their antagonistic activity against Alternaria porri.   [phyllosphere, phylloplane, endophytes, purple blotch disease, antagonism]  Czech Mycology 67(1): 1-22   (published: 10th April, 2015)
  abstract   Sixty-eight fungal species belonging to 29 genera were isolated as leaf surface and endophytic fungi from healthy and purple blotch diseased onion leaves. The fungal populations associated with diseased onion leaves (1.360 × 103 CFU/g leaf in the phyllosphere, 2.614 CFU/leaf segment in the phylloplane and 1.324 CFU/leaf segment in the surface-sterilised diseased leaves) were higher than those in healthy samples (0.804 × 103 CFU in the phyllosphere, 1.184 CFU in the phylloplane, and 0.35 CFU as endophytes). Endophytic fungi of healthy leaves were represented by 12 genera and 15 species, while fungi of surface-sterilised diseased leaves included 17 species from 13 genera. The mycobiota associated with surface-sterilised diseased leaves were different from the endophytic fungi of healthy samples, whereas the disease may stimulate colonisation of opportunistic fungi causing secondary infections such as Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium aurantiogriseum, Alternaria alternata and Cladosporium spp. In contrast, healthy leaves were a source of antagonistic endophytic fungi such as Trichoderma harzianum and T. koningii. Testing the antagonistic effect of 91 fungal isolates against Alternaria porri showed that nine isolates of Trichoderma produced the highest suppressive potential (73.1%) depending on competition and mycoparasitism. Epicoccum nigrum and Penicillium oxalicum exhibited antibiosis against A. porri producing a 12 mm broad inhibition zone. In conclusion, the quantitative and qualitative compositions of fungi associated with onion leaves were distinctly influenced by A. porri infection. Mycobiota associated with asymptomatic onion leaves such as Epicoccum nigrum, Penicillium oxalicum and Trichoderma harzianum are a natural source of eco-friendly bioagents. They showed an effective antagonistic potential against A. porri, and may thus be applied as an alternative to fungicides.

ISMAIL M.A., ABDEL-HAFEZ S.I.I., HUSSEIN N.A., ABDEL-HAMEED N.A. (2013): Contribution to physiological and biochemical diagnostics of Fusarium taxa commonly isolated in Egypt.   [Fusarium, taxonomy, physiological features, acetylmethylcarbinol, diagnostic]  Czech Mycology 65(1): 133-150   (published: 10th June, 2013)
  abstract   Fusarium isolates belonging to 24 species and 8 sections were subjected to 11 growth, physiological and biochemical tests (166 isolates). All species were able to grow on 25% Glycerol nitrate agar (G25N), Mannitol medium, Czapek iprodione dichloran agar (CZID) and Dichloran chloramphenicol peptone agar (DCPA). Growth rate, colony colour and reverse on G25N and CZID were promising diagnostic criteria for separating species within sections. The growth rate and reverse on Mannitol agar was diagnostic not only for separation of F. oxysporum from F. solani, but also for separation of many other Fusarium species treated. The ability to grow on Tannin-sucrose agar could distinguish some species of sections Liseola and Sporotrichiella. Acid production on Creatine-sucrose agar distinguished some species of section Liseola and F. trichothecioides of section Discolor. Acetylmethylcarbinol production revealed for the first time that all isolates of F. subglutinans can produce this substance, while most remaining isolates lacked this ability. Tests for peroxidase, urease and pyrocatechol oxidase proved to be very useful. The phosphatase enzyme seems to be common in Fusarium species and therefore it is only diagnostic for F. camptoceras (negative results). Some physiological features could be used as criteria to distinguish some sections or species within the same section.

ONDRÁČKOVÁ E., ONDŘEJ M., PROKINOVÁ E., NESRSTA M. (2013): Mycoparasitic fungi reducing the incidence and virulence of Bipolaris sorokiniana.   [mycoparasitic activity, mycoparasitic fungi, Clonostachys, Trichoderma, Bipolaris sorokiniana]  Czech Mycology 65(1): 103-112   (published: 10th June, 2013)
  abstract   The mycoparasitic efficiency of 28 strains/isolates of Clonostachys rosea f. rosea and Clonostachys rosea f. catenulata against the pathogenic fungus Bipolaris sorokiniana was determined in dual cultures on Czapek-Dox nutrient agar. Strains with low and medium efficiency were antagonistically inhibited by B. sorokiniana, and inhibitory zones were formed between the colonies of both fungi. The mycelium of Clonostachys strains with high efficiency overgrew and degraded B. sorokiniana colonies without formation of an inhibitory zone. In dual cultures, Trichoderma sp. and the most effective Clonostachys strains degraded B. sorokiniana colonies within 3 to 5 and 12 to 15 days, respectively.When rye seeds were treated with a mixture of C. rosea f. rosea, Trichoderma sp. and B. sorokiniana, development of B. sorokiniana on both seeds and seedlings was reduced when compared with a B. sorokiniana treatment. The treatment of rye seeds with Clonostachys and Trichoderma had a positive effect on seed germination and seedling length.

GANNIBAL P.B., KAZARTSEV I.A. (2013): Development of a PCR assay for amplification of mating-type loci of Alternaria spp. and related fungi.   [population genetics, recombination, Ulocladium]  Czech Mycology 65(1): 69-78   (published: 10th June, 2013)
  abstract   A large number of ascomycete anamorphs including Alternaria spp. are considered asexual, but carry structurally conserved genes in a mating-type locus (MAT1) with two alternate idiomorphs, MAT1-1 and MAT1-2. Since the locus has lost its main function in many species, different directions of natural selection acting on the idiomorphs can be observed. Thus identification of mating types can be used in population biology studies. Also analysis of MAT1 locus sequences is needed for evolution and phylogeny reconstruction. Eighteen primers from previous works and this study were assessed for their ability to amplify MAT1 in 25 Alternaria and 7 Ulocladium, Embellisia and Alternariaster species. The most suitable primer pairs for 6 sections of Alternaria and several Ulocladium species were revealed.

HORTOVÁ B., NOVOTNÝ D. (2011): Endophytic fungi in branches of sour cherry trees: a preliminary study.   [Prunus cerasus, Czech Republic, mycobiota, endophytic fungi]  Czech Mycology 63(1): 77-82   (published: 10th August, 2011)
  abstract   Sour cherry trees (Prunus cerasus L.) harbour various fungal groups, including endophytes. Branches of two different cultivars of sour cherry trees (Újfehértoi Fürtös, Érdi Bötermö) were sampled in May and July 2010 at two study sites in the Czech Republic. Alternaria alternata and coelomycete sp. 1 were the dominant species in branches collected at one site. Aureobasidium pullulans was the most frequent fungal species in branches from the other site. Both species were dominant in May and July.

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.

JANKOWIAK R., ROSSA R., MIŚTA K. (2007): Survey of fungal species vectored by Ips cembrae to European larch trees in Raciborskie forests (Poland).   [ophiostomatoid fungi, Ips cembrae, Larix decidua, fungi associated with bark beetles]  Czech Mycology 59(2): 227-239   (published: 28th December, 2007)
  abstract   The species composition of fungi associated with Ips cembrae was studied in the Raciborskie forests, Poland. The fungi were isolated from overwintered adults, larvae, new adults and from galleries at various stages of development. The results showed that there was a great diversity of fungi associated with this insect. We isolated 2877 cultures, including 61 species. The most important group of fungi were ophiostomatoid species. From these, Ceratocystis laricicola, Ophiostoma brunneo-ciliatum and Graphium laricis were commonly detected, whereas eight other species occurred less frequently or sporadically. Ophiostoma ips is documented here as a new associate of I. cembrae. Ceratocystis laricicola was shown to be the primary invader occurring most frequently at early stages of brood development, particularly in the sapwood. Ophiostoma brunneo-ciliatum and G. laricis were secondary invaders following C. laricicola. In the later stages of brood development other ophiostomatoid fungi appeared.

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 %).

Colloquium „Fungi as Model Organisms in Research and Biotechnology - III“ Olomouc, Czech Republic, 2 September 2005.  Czech Mycology 57(3-4): 307-323   (published: 10th February, 2006)
  abstract   The colloquium was a continuation of the previous scientific meetings that took place in Olomouc in 1999 and 2002 (Czech Mycology 52: 139-178, 2000 and 55: 103-149, 2003). It was organised by the Commission for Experimental Mycology of the Czechoslovak Microbiological Society and the Czech Scientific Society for Mycology together with the Institute of Biology, Faculty of Medicine of Palacký University, Olomouc. The aim of the colloquium was to provide a platform for a broad discussion on experimental mycology in all branches of basic and applied research. Besides two plenary lectures, 8 short communications and 8 posters were presented. In total 32 researchers from the Czech and Slovak Republics took part in the colloquium and discussed various topics important for the further development of experimental mycology. Abstracts of the contributions are given here.

SUKOVÁ M., CHLEBICKI A. (2004): Fungi on Juncus trifidus in the Czech Republic (II) with taxonomical notes to some species.   [Ascochyta, dark septate endophyte (DSE), Pseudoseptoria, Pycnothyrium, Septoria, Stagonospora, Unguicularia]  Czech Mycology 56(3-4): 203-221   (published: 22nd December, 2004)
  abstract   In this second contribution, other eight species of ascomycetes and anamorphic fungi on Juncus trifidus collected in the Czech Republic are described (Ascochyta junci, Lachnum diminutum, Phaeosphaeria vagans, Phialocephalasp., Pseudoseptoria sp., Pycnothyrium junci, Stagonosporajunciseda, Unguicularia sp.). Additional localities of Arthrinium cuspidatum and Niptera eriophori described in the first contribution are given. A fungus previously published as Septoria sp. was identified as Septoria chanousiana. Additional material of some fungi (Ascochyta junci, Septoria chanousiana, S. minuta, Unguicularia millepunctata) from other substrata and countries was studied with the aim to compare it with material from Juncus trifidus from the Czech Republic. Numbers of fungi on Juncus trifidus at studied localities are discussed.

FARGHALY R.M., GHERBAWY Y.A.M.H., YOSEF M.S. (2004): Contamination of meat stored in home refrigerators in Qena (Egypt).   [microscopic fungi, stored meat, refrigerators, Aspergillus, RAPD-PCR]  Czech Mycology 56(1-2): 53-62   (published: 12th August, 2004)
  abstract   Eighty samples were collected from different parts of home-refrigerators and meat stored herein, in the province of Qena, Egypt. Quantitative and qualitative estimations of moulds were carried out by conventional methods and the identified Aspergillus spp. were confirmed by the RAPD-PCR technique in the Institute of Applied Microbiology (IAM), University of Agricultural Sciences, Vienna, Austria. The obtained results revealed that the highest mould count was 3.9 X 104 CFU/cm2 in the chest of there frigerators, followed by 3.2 X 10^4, 2.6 X 10^3 and 2.5 X 10^3 CFU/cm2 in samples of air and freezer of refrigerators and stored meat, respectively. Elevenmould genera could beidentified, the most common of which were Aspergillus, Penicillium and Cladosporium. The counts and relative frequencies for these genera were 31 (25.4 %), 17 (13.9 %) and 16 (13.1 %), respectively. Five Aspergillus species were identified; mainly A. flavus 13 (42.0 %), A. niger 5 (16.1 %) and A. nidulans 5 (16.1 %). The isolated Aspergillus species were subjected to further identification by r and om amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) by using type strains from IAM. RAPD-analysis indicated that the Aspergillus strains isolated during this study were completely identical with the corresponding type strains from IAM. Public health hazard and significance of mould contamination in home-refrigerators, as well as hygienic measures and recommendations are fully discussed to prevent or minimise such contamination.

Colloquium "Fungi as Model Organisms in Research and Biotechnology - II", Olomouc, Czech Republic, September 5th–6th, 2002.  Czech Mycology 55(1-2): 103-149   (published: 23rd July, 2003)
  abstract   The colloquium was a continuation of a previous scientific meeting that took place in Olomouc in 1999 (Czech Mycology 52: 139-178, 2000). It was organised by the joint Commission for Experimental Mycology of the Czechoslovak Microbiological Society and the Czech Scientific Society for Mycology together with the Institute of Biology, Faculty of Medicine of Palacký University, Olomouc. The purpose of the colloquium was to provide a platform for a broad discussion on the use of fungi as model organisms in both basic and applied research. The programme of the colloquium was divided into four parts dealing with the following topics: biochemistry, biotechnology and genetics of fungi; phytopathogenic fungi; fungi pathogenic to humans and animals; and mycology of food and mycotoxins. Each topic was opened with a plenary lecture (30 min.), followed by short communications (10 min.) and accompanied by poster presentations. Besides five plenary lectures, 20 short communications and 24 posters were presented. In total 42 researchers took part in the colloquium and discussed various topics important for the further direction of experimental mycology. Abstracts of the contributions are given here.

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.

NOVOTNÝ D. (2003): A comparison of two methods for the study of microscopic fungi associated with oak roots.   [Quercus robur, oakdecline, Czech Republic, mycobiota, ophiostomatoid fungi]  Czech Mycology 55(1-2): 73-82   (published: 23rd July, 2003)
  abstract   Roots of four trees with symptoms of oak decline and roots of one healthy tree of Quercus robur were examined for the presence of fungi by using two methods (moist chambe rmethod and strong surface sterilisation method). Forty-five species were isolated in this project. Significant differences in composition of mycobiota based on the used method were detected. Fusarium solani, F. proliferatum, Sphaerostilbella aureonitens, Cylindrocarpon destructans, Pénicillium simplicissimum, P. purpurogenumvar. rubrisclerotium, Trichodermaviride, Ophiostomapiceae s.l. and Pénicillium glandicola were the most frequent fungi isolated by the moist chamber method. Cryptosporiopsis radicicola, dark sterile mycelium sp. 1, Cylindrocarpon destructans, ChaetomiuM globosum, Cylindrocarpon didymum, Pénicillium simplicissimum and Trichoderma koningii were dominant species observed by the method of strong surface sterilisation.

DVOŘÁKOVÁ R. (2002): Myxomycetes in Bohemian Karst and Hřebeny Mts.   [Myxomycetes, Bohemian Karst, Hřebeny Mts., Species diversity, Moist chamber culture]  Czech Mycology 53(4): 319-349   (published: 3rd October, 2002)
  abstract   Data on species composition and ecology of Myxomycetes are presented for three National Reserves in the Bohemian Karst and the northern part of Hřebeny Mountains. During a period of three years, all localities were investigated intensively. In addition to field collections, bark of living trees, twigs and dead leaves were cultivated in moist chambers. Specimens from the National Museum in Prague were revised. Ninety-five species of Myxomycetes belonging to 29 genera were registered with certainty, 17 of these new to the Czech Republic. Species descriptions are provided for newly recorded species including microhabitat preferences. Differences between species diversity in the Bohemian Karst and Hřebeny Mts. are discussed as well as the seasonal dynamics of Myxomycetes in Central European conditions.

NOVOTNÝ D. (2002): Contribution to the knowledge of the mycoflora in roots of oaks with and without tracheomycotic symptoms.   [Quercus robur, Q. petraea, Q. rubra, oak decline, ophiostomatoid fungi, Penicillium, Czech Republic, Moravia]  Czech Mycology 53(3): 211-222   (published: 10th January, 2002)
  abstract   The mycoflora of roots of three species of oak (Quercus robur, Q. petraea, Q. rubra) from two localities near Moravské Budějovice (southwest Moravia, Czech Republic) with and without tracheomycotic symptoms was studied. Fifty-seven species of fungi were identified from the samples. The most frequently isolated were Fusarium solani, Penicillium gl and icola, P. glabrum, P. simplicissimum and Acremonium curvulum. In the roots of trees with tracheomycotic symptoms two species of ophiostomatoid fungi were recorded. Abiotic condiontions (insufieciency of precipitation and higher average temperature) are considered to be primary reasons of oak decline.

HÝSEK J., BROŽOVÁ J. (2001): The role of some saprophytic micromycetes and fungus Micromucor ramannianus var. ramannianus in forest soil.   [humic horizon, soil fungi, saprophytic micromycetes, Micromucorramannianusvar. ramannianus, biological soil functions, respiration, ammonification, nitrification]  Czech Mycology 53(2): 161-171   (published: 20th February, 2002)
  abstract   Different saprophytic micromycetes were isolated from the humic horizon (H-A 02) of different types of forest soils (barren l and of reforested waste dumps, cambisol of spruce, birch, European mountain ash, and blue spruce forests) in several areas (at Most in the Krušné hory (Ore Mts.), Jizerské hory (Izera Mts.)). Besides the spectrum of common species of soil micromycetes (Penicillium spp., Humicola spp., Trichoderma spp., Paecilomyces spp., Scopulariopsis spp., Aureobasidium spp., Mucor spp., Absidia spp.), the fungus Micromucor ramannianus (Möller) Arx var. ramannianus (Mortierella ramanniana (Möller) Linneman, Mucor ramannianus Möller) was regularly isolated from all types of soils, except barren soils of was te dumps. The biological quality of forest soils in connection with other biological characteristics was evaluated in relation to the presence and quantity of this fungus in forest soils. Basic biological processes (basal and potential respiration, ammonification, nitrification) show an increased intensity in forest soils in which the proportion of Micromucorramannianus v. ramannianus was not present in the soil of the worst biological quality (lower values of biological soil parameters), e.g. in of was te dumps. It is a topic for discussion whe the r this fungus can also be an indicator of environmental pollution.

MOSTAFA M.E., ZOHRI A.A., KOTBY R.S. (2001): Lipid, sterol and ergosterol accumulation in isolates of dematiaceous Hyphomycetes.   [Lipid, sterol, ergosterol, dematiaceous hyphomycetes]  Czech Mycology 53(2): 149-159   (published: 20th February, 2002)
  abstract   Mycelial dry weight, lipid and sterol contents of fungi tested varied with fungalgenus, species and even with isolate of one species. Their dry mass fluctuated between lll.6±l0.7-457.0±41.5 mg/50 ml medium. Lipids, sterols and ergosterol accumulated by the isolates tested ranged from 4.52±0.5-29.04±2.76%, 1.23±0.16-10.63±l.24% and 0.43±0.057-7.13±0.695% of their dry mass, respectively. Cochliobolus spicifer isolate No. 35 was the highest lipid-producer while Ulocladium atrum No. 90 proved to be superior in the production of sterols and ergosterol. TLC technique and chemical analysis of lipid classes produced by U. atrium No. 90 revealed that the lipid fractions are composed of free sterols, free fatty acids, sterol esters, glycolipids, phospholipids and squalene.

LAGANÀ A., SALERNI E., BARLUZZI C., PERINI C., DE DOMINICIS V. (2000): Mycocoenological studies in Mediterranean forest ecosystems: calcicolous deciduous oak woods of central-southern Tuscany (Italy).   [mycocoenology, calcicolous deciduous oak woods, Mediterranean]  Czech Mycology 52(1): 1-16   (published: 21st January, 2000)
  abstract   The results of mycocoenological studies carried out in calcicolous deciduous oak woods of central-southern Tuscany are reported. Comparison with there sults of studies in other for est ecosystems of the same area revealed exclusive differential species of deciduous oak woods and clarified the knowledge on mycocoenoses of central-southern Tuscany. The obtained in formation on individual species is also useful for understanding the relatively unexplored field of the ecology of macrofungi.

NASSER L., ABDEL-SATER M.A. (1997): Fungi associated with sheep hairs in Saudi Arabia.   [Keratinophilic, non-keratinophilic fungi, sheep hairs]  Czech Mycology 50(2): 99-106   (published: 16th December, 1997)
  abstract   The frequency of occurrence of fungi in 25 hair samples of nine kinds of sheep, collected from different localities in Saudi Arabia, was estimated using three isolation methods at 28°C. Fortyfive species and one variety representing 23 genera were isolated and the most common genera were Chrysosporium, Alternaria, Aspergillus and Penicillium. The most prevalent species of the above genera were C. indicum, C. tropicum, Alternaria alternata, Aspergillus flavus, A. fumigatus, Penicillium chrysogenum and P. oxalicum. Other fungi were also isolated with variable frequencies.

ABDEL-MALLEK A.Y., MAZEN M.B., ALLAM A.D., HASHEM M. (1997): Specific responses of some phytopathogenic fungi to fungicides.   [fungicides, phytopathogenic species, Egypt]  Czech Mycology 50(1): 35-44   (published: 29th September, 1997)
  abstract   Laboratory experiments were carried out to examine the effect of four fungicides on spore germinating potentialities, radial growth and survival of viable propagules in soil of five phytopathogenic fungal species. The test organisms were achieved from infected roots of wheat plants cultivated in the Assiut area, Egypt. These were: Altemaria alternata, Cochliobolus sativus, Drechslera halodes, Fusarium moniliforme and F. oxysporum. The fungicides reduced germ tube production and radial growth of all fungi, and the reduction increased with increase in concentration. The maximal reduction was recorded at 50 μg/ml. At this concentration, Homai prevented spore germination of all test species. Neither F. moniliforme nor F. oxysporum can grow on agar medium supplemented with 50 μg/ml of either Benlate or Homai. The suppressive effect of fungicides on spore survival in soil cultures was also noticed but seemed to be lower than in agar application. In certain treatments, the numbers of viable propagules of tested fungi were not significantly affected in autoclaved nor non-autoclaved soil.

FASSATIOVÁ O. (1995): Micromycetes in archives and book depositories in the Czech Republic.   [Micromycetes, archives, allergies, Czech Republic]  Czech Mycology 48(1): 77-86   (published: 16th May, 1995)
  abstract   Species representation of micromycetes and their frequency were studied in the period 1981-1988 in four archives in Prague and near Prague and in one depository in West Bohemia. Representants of genera Penicillium, Cladosporium, Alternaria, Aspergillus, Mucor and Rhizopus isolated by sediment plate method and from the surfaces of the archive depots were the most frequent in all observed spaces. The higher number of the most frequent species was always found in older and for the archive purposes less convenient buildings, while inside the new building the number of the most frequent species was very low. In suitable conditions only a limited number of species for which the given specific conditions are convenient, act as destructive. They are mostly Penicillium which form coherent growing covers on the backs of the books and cartons. Spores of these fungi released by their growth contaminate the atmosphere of these spaces and can cause allergies in sensitive persons.

  abstract   The superficialcultivation of fungus Schizophyllum commune Fr. in static liquid cultures showed production of abscisic acid - type inhibitor (ABA) and isopentyl - adenine type cytokinins (2iP) by this fungus. The analyses were done after 28 days of cultivation.

PALMER J. (1994): Sclerotiniaceae on sweet chestnut burrs in the northern 'old world‘.   [Sclerotiniaceae, Castanea sativa, Europe, Algeria]  Czech Mycology 47(2): 101-138   (published: 15th March, 1994)
  abstract   Numerous collections by the author and 91 samples of old, fallenburrs of Castanea sativa Mill, received from 51 correspondents in Algeria and 21 countries in Europe, including the Canary Islands, Corsica and Madeira, produced the following Sclerotiniaceae: i.e. Botryotinia fuckeliana (de Bary) Whetzel, Ciboria americana Durand, Ciboria tenuistipes Schroet., Ciborinia bresadolae (Rick) J.T. Palmer, Lanzia echinophila (Bull: Fr.) Korf, L. luteovirescens (Rob. in Desmaz.) Dumont et Korf and Rutstroemia sydowiana (Rehm in Syd.) White as well as species of Ciboria, Ciborinia and Rutstroemia, which require further investigation. Hitherto, L. echinophila was the only sclerotinaceous species reported from this substrate in Europe. The samples ranged from single burrs to large packages with up to four species found in each. In addition, 44 further samples, nineteen of freshly burrs, produced no apothecia . Both C. americana and R. sydowiana have, however, been found in collections in national herbaria determined with a synonym of Lanzia echinophila.

MARVANOVÁ L., KALOUSKOVÁ V., HANULÁKOVÁ D., SCHÁNĚL L. (1993): Misroscopic fungi in the Zbrašov agaronite caves.  Česká Mykologie 46(3-4): 243-250   (published: 25th August, 1993)
  abstract   The aragonite coating in some pans of the caves in Zbrašov (northern Moravia, ČSFR) is strewn with fragments of textile fibres, originating probably from the clothes of cave visitors. These filaments as well as the aragonite in their close vicinity are colonised by microscopic fungi. About fifty taxa have been identified. Spores of fungi in the aeroplankton in the caves mostly belong to other species than do occur on the aragonite. The species composition of the fungal community on aragonite is probably influenced by the temperature inside the caves.

ŠIMONOVIČOVÁ A. (1992): Microfungal community structure in forest soil of North Slovakia. I. Similarity of mykocenosis (The Valley Tichá).  Česká Mykologie 46(1-2): 99-105   (published: 1st April, 1993)
  abstract   Microfungal community structure in four forest localities in the Valley Tichá in the High Tatra Mountains was studied. Podzolic and ranker soils are poor in organic matter, physically and chemically unfavourable. The pH values are lower – by 1.0 to 1.5 – than values in 1962, which means that the quality of the soils has degraded. These differences correspond with the quality of mycocenosis, which has also worsened. 41 species of soil micromycetes were isolated. The occurrence of the representatives of the genus Penicillium (fam. Moniliaceae) was the highest. The occurrence of the representatives of the family Mucoraceae was suppressed. The similarity of the neighbouring mycocenoses was higher than that of those more distant from each other.

  abstract   A list of micromycetes (including saprophytic, keratinophilic, rhizosphere, nematophagous, ovicidal, dermatophytic fungi, and cellular slime moulds) isolated from Czechoslovak soils is presented with references and data on their distribution. Listed species include Talaromyces flavus, T. luteus, T. purpureus, T. trachyspermus, T. wortmanii, Tetracoccosporium paxianum, Thamnidium elegans, Th. verticillatum, Thielavia basicola, Th. terricola, Thumenella sp.

HOLUBOVÁ-JECHOVÁ V. (1990): Zygosporium mycophilum (Vuill.) Sacc. in Czechoslovakia.  Česká Mykologie 44(2): 106-108   (published: 22nd June, 1990)
  abstract   Zygosporium mycophilum (Vuill.) Sacc. is described and illustrated from a decayed apple, rotten by Botrytis cinerea and various species of Penicillium, in Czechoslovakia. It seems that the species is not an obligate mycoparasite, but is obviously mycophilous, growing always among other microscopic fungi. Conidia were oval to ellipsoidal, hyaline, 5–8.5 × 4–6 µm, minutely verruculose. This collection is a first record from Czechoslovakia.

ŘEPOVÁ A. (1989): Soil micromycetes from Czechoslovakia - a list of isolated species with bibliography.  Česká Mykologie 43(3): 169-175   (published: 21st August, 1989)
  abstract   A list of micromycetes (saprophytic, keratinophilic, rhizosphere, nematophagous, ovicidal, dermatophytes, and cellular slime moulds) isolated from various Czechoslovak soils is presented. Records about species distribution in Czechoslovakia and bibliography are included for each micromycete species.

HORÁKOVÁ J., SKALICKÝ V. (1989): Contribution to the ecology of Peronospora violacea Berk.  Česká Mykologie 43(1): 13-29   (published: 6th February, 1989)
  abstract   Peronospora violacea Berk. is an obligate floricolous Peronospora. All floricolous parasitic fungi of the family Peronosporaceae belong to the genus Peronospora Corda, probably to only one evolutional complex; of the foliicolous parasitic species, Peronospora destructor (Berk.) Casp. is their closest relative. It is impossible to distinguish individual microspecies within P. violacea Berk. on the basis of host plants; three new host species were found. The systemic infection of the Knautia species by both indirect and direct methods (replanting, histological proof of mycelium) was demonstrated. The data on oospores were corrected and completed. Basing on the revision of all materials preserved in the Czechoslovak public herbarium collections, a map of distribution of this species in Czechoslovakia was compiled and evaluated. A special chapter is devoted to the problems of nomenclature.

  abstract   Vararia granulosa (Fr.) Laurila is a name which cannot be applied to the fungus for which it is now commonly used. Fries (1838, 1874) considered the element representing our Vararia only a marginal part of his broad concept of Grandinia granulosa (Pers. ex Fr.) Fr. As there is no legitimate name for the fungus in question, Vararia borealis Pouz. spec. nov. is proposed for it here.

  abstract   Based on conidial development, three fundamental spore types are proposed: arthroconidia, proconidia, and euconidia. This leads to a new classification of the Hyphomycetes into three subgroups: Arthrohyphomycetes, Blastohyphomycetes, and Euhyphomycetes, each further divided into sections. The paper discusses the inadequacy of the Saccardo system and supports modern classification approaches based on conidiogenesis, drawing from various authors and previous studies.
