Abstract
- Twenty Penicillium isolates were recovered during the investigation of fungal community in the soil samples collected from Wando (Jeonnam Province, Korea). Among them, one species was identified and described as P. cainii based on phylogentic analysis of internal transcribed spacer and beta-tubulin (BT2) genes and morphological characteristics. This is a first report of P. cainii in Korea.
