  • A Fusarium species was isolated from stems of cactus(Hylocereus trigonus) showing rot symptoms at Koyang, Kyonggi province in 1997. This pathogen was identified as Fusarium oxysporum based on mycological characteristics. The rot symptom appeared at the soil line and roughly circular lesions, 1∼3 mm in diameter, appeared on basal stems. The pathogen formed both microconidia and macroconidia. Microconidia were formed abundantly in false-heads on short monophialides, oval to kidney-shaped. Macroconidia were slightly sickle-shaped, 3∼5-septated with an attenuated apical cell and a foot-shaped basal cell. Colony color on PDA was white, peach or purple. Chlamydospores were formed abundantly on PDA. The pathogen was able to cause stem rot symptoms to cactus by wound inoculation as well as non-wound inoculation.

  • This study aimed to isolate and characterize wild yeast strains from the vineyard soil in Korea. Twenty yeast strains were isolated from vineyard soil in Gimpo-si, Gyeonggi-do, Korea, where Vitis labrusca cv. Campbell Early is grown. Eighteen strains were previously recorded in Korea. The remaining two, Cyberlindnera mrakii VG-21-10C and Starmerella bacillaris GR9 were not previously recorded in Korea. The mycological characteristics of VG-21-10C and GR9 were investigated. Both were oval-shaped, convex, and smooth. However, differences were evident in colony color and carbon assimilation activities. Strain VG-21-10C is white-colored and assimilates glucose, glycerol, D-xylose, D-cellobiose, D-saccharose, and D-raffinose as carbon sources. Strain GR9 is cream-colored and assimilates glucose, D-saccharose, and D-raffinose as carbon sources.

  • An 82-year-old man with diabetes was admitted to the emergency department with a third-degree burn on his left leg. The deep swab specimen from his left leg was cultured on Sabouraud dextrose agar without cycloheximide and incubated at $25^{\circ}C$ for 5 days. On the basis of morphological characteristics and multigene phylogenetic analyses of the internal transcribed spacer region of ribosomal DNA and partial fragments of beta-tubulin and translation elongation factor 1-alpha, the causal agent of fungal skin infection was identified as Bisifusarium delphinoides, which was newly introduced by accommodating a Fusarium dimerum species complex. Thus, we describe here the first case of skin infection caused by B. delphinoides on a burn patient with diabetes mellitus based on morphological observation and molecular analysis.

  • Trichophyton(T.) tonsurans has been identified for the first time in Korea in 1995 and has been increasing in number of reported in wrestlers, in judo players, and in korean - style wrestlers. Author tried mycological studies with T. tonsurans is isolated in Daegu Korea. The results are as follows: All 16 strains of T. tonsurans tested for nutritional requirement, showed strongly stimulated growth by thiamine, mild to moderate growth on casamino acid agar, poor growth on ammonium nitrates base agar. All 16 strains of T. tonsurans tested showed positive results for hair perforation and urease test. Gross findings of T. tonsurans showed that fine granular surface with light yellow hue or white color and mahogany brown color on the reverse side. Microscopic findings showed that septated hyphae, chlamydoconidia and microcondia. Microconidia were characteristic in their arrangerment and shape : round or oval shaped microconidia laterally to hyphae, some were match - head like terminal swelling.

  • Invasive fungal infections caused by Cyberlindnera fabianii have recently increased. However, biochemical kits such as API 20 C AUX and Vitek-2C have misidentified this species as other Candida spp. such as C. pelliculosa or C. utilis due to no information of Cy. fabianii in yeast database. During our 2016-2017 surveys, eleven isolates of Cy. fabianii were obtained in International St. Mary's Hospital in Korea. Here, we describe its morphological and molecular characteristics and tested its antifungal susceptibility against nine antifungal agents. The sequences of the ITS region and the D1/D2 region of LSU revealed 100% identity with the sequences of Cy. fabianii. In comparison with the results from MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, we found that Cy. fabianii can be distinguished from other species. In antifungal susceptibility test, voriconazole and echinocandins exhibited good antifungal activities against the majority of Cy. fabianii isolates despite the absence of standard criteria.

  • Ripe rot was commonly found in overripe kiwifruits (Actinidia deliciosa) during a disease survey conducted in Jeju and Jeonnam provinces in Korea in 1999. While the disease did not manifest any clear external symptoms on kiwifruits, it caused portion of the fruit surface to collapse. Watersoaked flesh tissue could be seen on the sunken part when the skin of the collapsed portion was peeled off. The milky internal symptom with dark green margin developed concentrically as the fruit ripened. A species of Botryosphaeria was consistently isolated from lesions showing typical symptoms of ripe rot on kiwifruit, and its pathogenicity was confirmed by artificial inoculation test on healthy kiwifruits. The fungus was also pathogenic to apple and pear. The mycological characteristics of the fungus were consistent with those of Botryosphaeria dothidea. This is the first report on the detailed mycological characteristics of the causal organism of post-harvest ripe rot of kiwifruit in Korea.

  • 한국에서 해송의 줄기변색 부위에서 분리된 변색균류중 한 종에 대하여 그 특성을 조사하였다. Cycloheximide에 저항성인 Ophiostoma piceae complex 그룹에서 보여지는 무성세대 Petosum의 분생포자경과 또 다른 무성세대 Sporothrix의 형태를 지니고 있었다. 그러나 완전세대의 모습인 자낭각을 형성하지 못하였다. 이 균류는 배양적특성, 형태적특성 그리고 $\beta$-tubulin 유전자 염기서열 분석을 통하여 Ophiostoma quercus로 동정되었다. 본 연구에서는 한국에서 분리된 O. quercus의 균학적 특성을 처음으로 보고하고자 한다.

  • 병든 생강으로부터 분리한 6개 Pythium 균주들은 여러 가지 형태적, 생리적 특성에서 Pythium myriotylum Drechsler로 동정되었다. 이 균들은 생강 지하부의 싹, 근경, 뿌리, 땅가줄기 뿐만 아니라 지상부 잎, 줄기 전부분에 걸쳐 병원성이 강하였다. 이 균들은 오이, 수박 등 10개 작물 혹은 잡초의 어린 묘를 부패시켰으며 보리, 옥수수 등 공시한 3개 작물 유묘의 지상부 생장이나 뿌리 생장을 현저히 억제하였다. 이 균들의 생육 최고, 최적, 최저온도는 각각 39~45$^{\circ}C$, 33~37$^{\circ}C$, 5~7$^{\circ}C$였으며 생육최적 pH는 6~7이었다. 이 균들의 균사생장은 V-8 juice 배지에서 가장 빨랐으나 기중균사량은 PDA와 옥수수전즙배지에서 가장 많았다. 유주자낭과 장난기는 V-8 juice 배지에서 가장 잘 형성되었으며 유주자낭 형성 최적온도는 균주에 따라 20~35$^{\circ}C$, 장난기 형성은 15$^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 가장 양호하였다
