Abstract
Several strains of Penicillium section Citrina were isolated
during a survey of fungi from marine environments along
the southern coast of Korea. Based on multigene phylogenetic
analyses (?tubulin and calmodulin) and morphological
characteristics, the 11 strains were identified as P. citrinum,
P. hetheringtonii, P. paxilli, P. sumatrense, P. terrigenum, and
P. westlingii. To understand the ecological role of these species,
we tested all strains for extracellular enzyme activity;
six strains representing four species showed ?glucosidase
activity. Four of the identified species ?P. hetheringtonii, P.
paxilli, P. terrigenum, and P. westlingii ?are new records
for Korea. For these new species records, we describe morphological
characteristics of the strains and compare results
to published data of type strains.
