Further Observations on the Sporulation of Chaetomium globosum [PDF]
SUMMARY: Extracts of a strain of Aspergillus fumigatus stimulate fruiting of Chaetomium globosum, but the factor responsible is not identical with that present in jute extract. Hexose phosphates, although stimulating fruiting, do not account for the activity of the jute extract.

The Effect of a Physical Barrier on Sporulation of Chaetomium globosum [PDF]
SUMMARY: Increased production of perithecia by Chaetomium globosum in the neighbourhood of a physical barrier which impedes the growth of the colony is associated with a locally increased concentration in the medium of organic phosphates excreted by the organism, caused by unequal diffusion of these compounds owing to the presence of the barrier.

Phylogenetic reassessment of the Chaetomium globosum species complex [PDF]
Chaetomium globosum, the type species of the genus, is ubiquitous, occurring on a wide variety of substrates, in air and in marine environments. This species is recognised as a cellulolytic and/or endophytic fungus. It is also known as a source of secondary metabolites with various biological activities, having great potential in the agricultural ...

Onychomycosis of the toenails caused by Chaetomium globosum
Onychomycoses caused by nondermatophytes are not uncommon. In a recent 3-year survey Summerbell et al.' found that nondermatophytic filamentous fungi cause 3.3% of nail infections. The most common organisms were Scopulariopsis brevicaulis, Hendersonula toruloidea (now renamed Scytalidium dimidiatum), Aspergillus sydowii, and Candida albicans.I We ...

Secondary Metabolites of the Endophytic Fungus Isolated From
A new steroid, chaetglotone ( 1 ), together with 3 known compounds ( 2 - 4 ), were isolated from Chaetomium globosum , which is an endophytic fungus isolated from the root of Coptis chinensis Franch . The new compound was characterized by one-dimensional

Significance of Calcium in the Fruiting of Chaetomium Species, Particularly Chaetomium globosum [PDF]
SUMMARY: Calcium is required by Chaetomium globosum for the normal formation of perithecia, but is not essential for vegetative growth. Calcium is at least partly replaceable by scrontium or barium. Most of the other species of Chaetomium tested responded to calcium, either in fruiting or growth, or both.

Identification of Chaetomium and Amesia species associated with different diseases of some herbaceous ornamentals in Ahvaz [PDF]
Introduction: Common zinnia (Zinnia elegans), canna (Canna sp.), petunia (Petunia hybrida), compacta (Dracaena Compacta), dahlia (Dahlia sp.), gazania (Gazania sp.), marigold (Tagetes sp.), rose moss (Portulaca grandiflora) and nasturtium (Tropaeolum ...

Functional analysis of a chaetoglobosin A biosynthetic regulator in Chaetomium globosum
Cytochalasins are a group of fungal secondary metabolites with diverse structures and bioactivities, including chaetoglobosin A production. Chaetoglobosin A is produced by Chaetomium globosum and has potential antifungal activity. Bioinformatics analysis of the chaetoglobosin A gene cluster (che) showed it that consists of nine open reading frames ...
