Aspergillus brevipes var. unilateralis

Aspergillus brevipes is an anamorph species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus.[1][3][5] It is from the Fumigati section.[6] It was first described in 1952.[2] It has been isolated from soil in Australia.[6] Aspergillus brevipes produces roquefortine C, meleagrin and viriditoxin.[7]

Growth and morphology

A. brevipes has been cultivated on both Czapek yeast extract agar (CYA) plates and Malt Extract Agar Oxoid® (MEAOX) plates. The growth morphology of the colonies can be seen in the pictures below.
