ABSTRACT
We isolated and identified a strain of Eurotium rubrum from Meju that has not been reported in Korea. This fungus is yellowish brown; reverse dark brown on CYA and PDA while yellow on 2% MEA at 25degrees C. Cleistothecia are first bright yellow and gradually turned brown. Mycerial growth on CYA attained a diameter of 30 mm at 20degrees C, 37 mm at 25degrees C and 32 mm at 30degrees C after 15 days. The isolate grew slower on 2% MEA (< 20 mm 15 days at 25degrees C) compared to CYA and PDA (< 40 mm 15 days at 25degrees C). Cleistothecia are superficial, yellow to light brown, globose to subglobose, 40~75 microm in diameter. Asci are 8-spored and globose to subglobose 8~11 microm. Ascospores are disciform, 4.0~5.0 microm in length and 4.2~4.5 microm in width. Conidia are ovate or bacillar, finely roughened to densely spinulose, 4.6~6.0 microm in length and 3.0~4.3 microm in width. Compared to known Eurotium rubrum, the Korean isolate showed 99% sequence similarity in ITS rDNA (554 bp) and calmodulin (750 bp) gene and 100% in beta-tubulin (1016 bp) gene. The E. rubrum isolate also had weak beta-glucosidase and protease activities.
