ABSTRACT

@#Aims: The present study aimed to recognize the microstructure of conidiophores and spores of Penicilliumspp. which were isolated from clinical wastes. Methodology and results:The isolates of Penicilliumspp. were obtained from the solid clinical wastes on V8A medium and purified by single spore method. The culture characteristics were described in five culture media included; Czapek Yeast Extract Agar(CYA); Malt Extract Agar (MEA), Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA), Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) and Czapek-Dox Agar(CZ) while the conidiophores and spores were described using light and Scanning Electronic Microscope (SEM).Penicilliumspp. observedsome differences in their culture characteristics. Among 11 Penicilliumspecies isolated in this study and identified based on culture and microscope morphology. Five species including P. simplicissium,P. waksmanii,P. corylophilum andP. decumbensas well as one species identified as T. wortmanniiwere described in detailusing SEM. Conclusion, significance and impact of study:The study revealed that the microstructure of the fungal spores and conidiophores play an important role in the taxonomy of fungi species based on the phenotypic method.

ABSTRACT

A mancha branca do milho apresenta ampla distribuição pelas áreas produtoras de milho no Brasil, sendo uma das principais doenças da cultura, ao ponto de ter se tornado um entrave para a sua expansão. A doença é ocasionada por um complexo de patógenos, dificultando seu manejo pelo produtor. O presente trabalho objetiva avaliar a eficácia da combinação de diferentes fungicidas com antibióticos, no manejo da doença e seu efeito na produtividade. O experimento foi instalado na cidade de Pedrinópolis (MG), ano agrícola 2010/11. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o de blocos casualizados (DBC) com 10 tratamentos + 1 testemunha em 4 repetições. Os tratamentos basearam-se em combinações dos fungicidas Envoy (piraclostrobina + epoxiconazol) e PrioriXtra (azoxistrobina + ciproconazol), com os antibióticos Fegatex (Cloretos de Benzalcônio) e Kasumin (Kasugamicina). Isoladamente testou-se a título de comparação fermentado de Penicillium spp. As variáveis analisadas foram: severidade da doença (%), fitotoxidade (%), peso de mil grãos (g) e produtividade (Kg ha-1). A testemunha apresentou o maior índice de severidade, seguido de PrioriXtra + Nimbus. Nenhum tratamento causou fitotoxidade às parcelas experimentais. Em relação ao peso de mil grãos, os tratamentos superiores à testemunha foram Envoy + Nimbus e PrioriXtra + Nimbus. Para a variável produtividade (kg ha- 1), o tratamento mais produtivo foi PrioriXtra + Nimbus. O fermentado de Penicillium spp, na dose de 2 L por ha, apresentou uma eficácia semelhante aos fungicidas e antibióticos sintéticos, podendo ser utilizado no controle da doença em sistemas integrados no Brasil.


Phaeosphaeria leaf spot is very common in corn producing areas in Brazil. This is one of the major diseases of the crop, becoming an obstacle to its expansion. The disease is caused by a complex of pathogens, causing problems to the producer. This study aims to evaluate the effect of the combination of different fungicides with antibiotics in the management of the disease and its corresponding effect on productivity. The experiment was conducted in the city of Pedrinopolis (MG), harvest year 2010-11. The experimental design was a randomized block design (RBD) with 10 treatments + 1 control group in 4 repetitions. Treatments were based on combinations of fungicides Envoy (pyraclostrobin + epoxiconazole) and PrioriXtra (azoxystrobin + cyproconazole) with antibiotics Fegatex (Benzalkonium Chloride) and Kasumin (kasugamycin). The UFU biofungicide (fermented of the fungus Penicillium minor) was tested separately for comparison. The variables analyzed were: disease severity (%), phytotoxicity (%), thousand grain weight (g) and yield (kg ha-1). The control group showed the highest severity percentage, followed by PrioriXtra + Nimbus. No treatment caused a toxic reaction in the experimental plots. Regarding the thousand grain weight, the treatments that were statistically superior to the control group were Envoy + Nimbus and PrioriXtra + Nimbus. For the variable productivity (kg.ha-1), the most productive treatment was PrioriXtra + Nimbus. The use of Penicillium spp fermented culture media (Potato-dextrose) presented the same control of synthetic fungicides and antibiotics to maize white spot, when applied 2 L/ha in maize trials.The biological control with Penicillium spp. Is a new procedure to white spot disease control in integrated systems in Brazil.

ABSTRACT

Three Penicillium species have been isolated from insect specimens in Korea; Penicillium sp., P. steckii, and P. polonicum. Penicillium sp. (KNU12-3-2) was isolated from Lixus imperessiventris, while P. polonicum (KNU12-1-8) and Penicillium steckii (KNU12-2-9) were isolated from Muljarus japonicas and Meloe proscarabaeus, respectively. The identification was based on the morphological characteristics of the fungi and in internal transcribed spacer analysis. This is the first report on the isolation of these three species of Penicillium from insects in Korea.

ABSTRACT

O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a qualidade microbiológica de castanhas industrializadas e das castanhas artesanalmente processadas, comercializadas por ambulantes em Teresina (PI). Foram coletadas 40 amostras de castanhas, sendo 21 amostras de castanhas industrializadas de três marcas (“A”, “B” e “C”) e 19 amostras de castanhas processadas artesanalmente (“D”), nas quais foram realizadas a determinação de coliformes a 35 °C e a 45 °C (NMP/g), a pesquisa de Salmonella spp. e a contagem de fungos. As amostras da marca “D” apresentaram maiores valores de coliformes a 35 °C (1,16 × 101 NMP/g); para coliformes a 45 °C, foram detectados valores de 7,0 NMP/g, e de 1,22 × 102 UFC/g para fungos e leveduras. Nas amostras da marca “A”, os valores para coliformes a 35 °C e 45 °C foram de 4,0 NMP/g e, para fungos e leveduras,de 1,0 × 102 UFC/g. Foram isoladas 43 cepas fúngicas. Do gênero Aspergillus, houve maior prevalência da espécie Aspergillus niger agregados (64,7%), e as espécies P. corylophillum (33,3%) e P. citrinum (29,2%) do gênero Penicillium. As amostras de castanhas industrializadas e processadas artesanalmente apresentaram condições higiênico-sanitárias satisfatórias e de acordo com a legislação vigente.
