Gongronella Ribaldi Mucorales comprise ubiquitous, mostly saprotrophic organisms and are one of the most ancient groups of fungi. They can be easily isolated fromsoil, dung, water, stored grains, plants, as well as other fungi due to their rapid growth rate and ability to colonize and sporulate on diverse, carbohydrate-rich, terrestrial substrates (Benny 2008; O’Donnell [...]

Absidia Tiegh. The genus Absidia Tiegh. (Cunninghamellaceae, Mucorales) was originally described by van Tieghem (1876) with type species A. reflexa Tiegh. (Hesseltine and Ellis 1964). To the best of our knowledge, 21 species of Absidia have been reported thus far (Kirk et al. 2008). The species belonging to this genus are characterized by the [...]
