Ag. Kozlovskii et al., PECULIARITIES OF ALKALOID FORMATION IN PENICILLIUM-CHRYSOGENUM STRAINS ISOLATED FROM SOILS OF DIFFERENT CLIMATIC ZONES, Microbiology (New York), 67(4), 1998, pp. 397-400
The patterns of secondary alkaloid metabolites of Penicillium chrysoge
num strains isolated from soils of various climatic zones were studied
. Strains F-227, F-692, F-1078, and F-1987 were found to produce the a
lkaloid roquefortine and other structurally related metabolites, which
allows these strains to be attributed to the chemotype P. chrysogenum
var. chrysogellum. Strain F-316 appears to represent a new variant of
P. chrysogenum.
