Rhizopus Ehrenb. The classification system in the genus Rhizopus was previously revised based on physiological and morphological characteristics such as size of sporangia and sporangiophore and branching of rhizoids (Schipper 1984; Schipper and Stalpers 1984). Recently, however, molecular identification has been employed by analyses of rDNA ITS, small subunit (SSU), large subunit (LSU), actin [...]
