Cheese is characterized by a rich and complex microbiota that plays a vital role during both
production and ripening, contributing significantly to the safety, quality, and sensory …

Fungal biofactories are well established in bioprocess industries. They have been used for
the production of essential biomolecules in chemical, food, and pharmaceutical industries …

With the rapid development of systems biology technology, there is a deeper understanding
of the molecular biological mechanisms and physiological characteristics of …

Abstract Background The filamentous fungi Paecilomyces variotii and Penicillium roqueforti
are prevalent food spoilers and are of interest as potential future cell factories. A functional …

Contamination by spores is often the cause of fungal food spoilage. Some distinct strains of
the food spoilage fungus Paecilomyces variotii are able to produce airborne conidia that are …

Background Asexually developed fungal spores (conidia) are key for the massive
proliferation and dispersal of filamentous fungi. Germination of conidia and subsequent …

The Penicillium genus exhibits a broad global distribution and holds substantial economic
value in sectors including agriculture, industry, and medicine. Particularly in agriculture …

Microbial species are inherently variable, which is reflected in intraspecies genotypic and
phenotypic differences. Strain-to-strain variation gives rise to variability in stress resistance …

Both the increasing environmental temperature in nature and the defensive body
temperature response to pathogenic fungi during mammalian infection cause heat stress …

Penicillium roqueforti from native food habitats can provide more insights into moldy cheese
production. The objective of this study was to evaluate the starter culture potential of wild P …
