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.
ABDEL-SATER M.A., MOUBASHER A.H., SOLIMAN Z.S.M. (2016): Diversity of filamentous and yeast fungi in soil of citrus and grapevine plantations in the Assiut region, Egypt. [Mycobiota, biodiversity, phenotypic and biochemical characterisation, ITS sequence, Coniochaeta canina, Aspergillus stella-maris] Czech Mycology 68(2): 183-214 (published: 20th December, 2016)
abstract
An extensive survey of soil mycobiota on citrus and grapevine plantations in Sahel-Saleem City, Assiut Governorate, Egypt was carried out using the dilution-plate method and 2 isolation media at 25 °C. Sixty-four genera and 195 species of filamentous fungi and 10 genera and 13 species of yeasts were recovered. A higher diversity (number of genera and species) and gross total counts were recovered from citrus than from grapevine soil. The peak of filamentous fungi recovered from both soils was found to be in February. Aspergillus (45 species) was the most dominant genus; A. ochraceus predominated in citrus plantations, while A. niger and A. aculeatus in grapevine. The Penicillium count came second after Aspergillus in citrus (23 species) and after Aspergillus and Fusarium in grapevine (11 species).Penicillium citrinum, P. ochrochloron and P. olsonii were more common in citrus plantations, but they were replaced by P. oxalicum in grapevine soil. Fusarium (19 species) was represented in 88.9–100% of both soils on both media; F. solani predominated in both soils, while F. incarnatum came next in citrus, and F. babinda and F. oxysporum in grapevine. Humicola (3 species) with the dominant H. fuscoatra was recorded in 61.1–83.3% of soil of both plantations, while Talaromyces (with T. purpureogenus followed by T. pinophilus being the most common) was recorded in 83.3–100% on DRBC and 38.9–50% on DYM from the soil of plantations of both crops. Volutella (5 species) was common in citrus but missing from grapevine soil. The present study reveals that hyaline fungi predominated over dark-coloured ones. Yeasts comprised only minor proportions in both soils (maximum 0.5%). They showed their peak in the soil of citrus plantations in April and in grapevine in February. All species were recovered in one or two samples only. Diutina catenulata, Debaryomyces hansenii, Galactomyces (3 species), Hanseniaspora occidentalis, Kluyveromyces marxianus, Meyerozyma caribbica, and Schwanniomyces pseudopolymorphus were encountered in citrus only, while Cryptococcus laurentii, Pichia kudriavzevii, Meyerozyma guilliermondii and Rhodotorula sp. in grapevine only. Physiological and growth characteristics were obtained for most of the recovered yeasts.

abstract
Data on the occurrence and inducibility of extracellular β-N-acetylhexosaminidase, α-galactosidase, α- and β-mannosidase and α-L-fucosidase, including inductors, are given for selected Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium strains. These data represent additional information on the strains in the Culture Collection of Fungi, Department of Botany, Charles University, Prague, and in the Culture Collection of the Institute of Microbiology, Prague, Czech Republic, thus extending their usability in biochemistry and biotechnology. With respect to these biochemical data a taxonomic evaluation of the examined strains is presented. Several strains were re identified after biochemical and morphological comparisons with the type strains. The strains of A. niveus CCF 544, A. terreus CCF 76, CCF 869, and CCIM USA were re-identified as A. flavipes, the strain A. oryzae CCF 1301 as A. wentii.

abstract
A review of applications of fungi in biotechnology from the old ages to the present times is presented. Origins of vine and beer fermentation as well as leavened bread making are lost in the mist of antiquity and records of the production of Roquefort cheese go back about a thousand years. On the other hand, commercial production of yeast began in the last century and the production of single-cell proteins (SCP) was born in our century. Nowadays, fungi are further used in commercial production of enzymes, organic acids, vitamins, antibiotics and plant growth regulators, in biotransformations of steroids and antibiotics, in the ephedrin synthesis and in preparation of other pharmacologically useful substances. Great achievements were obtained by applying classical genetic methods. Possibilities of the use of protoplast fusion and recombination, gene amplification or recombinant DNA technology using restriction enzymes are discussed.
