An Integrated Approach to Penicillium Systematics

摘要: A multidisciplinary approach to critical groups of species in Penicillium has been initiated which considers a larger number characters than previously employed an integrated study. Some 300 selected isolates fasciculate Penicillia are being examined and scored for 195 including ones derived from morphological, ultra-structural biochemical attributes; many these have not the taxonomy filamentous fungi. This contribution describes techniques standard procedures adopted outlines numerical utilised assessment results. Procedures testing validity groupings that will be produced also described. The work is still data collection phase, but some preliminary results based on full sets 52 presented. These show this can expected make major clarification concepts Penicillium.
