Abstract
|
|
|
|
The aim of this study was to characterize a new fungal species, Acremonium conglutinatum,isolated from air samples collected in Wando, South Korea. Phylogenetic analysis based onthe internal transcribed spacer and large subunit regions revealed its unique position withinthe genus Acremonium. The isolated strain displayed distinct morphological characteristics,including ellipsoid or bent-ellipsoid conidia formed in clusters on the phialides. These featuresdifferentiate the new species from closely related species within the genus. This studydescribes the morphological and molecular characteristics of A. conglutinatum and emphasizesits phylogenetic relationships with other Acremonium spp. The identification of thisnovel species contributes to our understanding of the diversity and ecological role ofAcremonium.
