Penicillium growth can still occur indoors even if the relative humidity is low, as long as there is sufficient moisture available on a given surface. A British study determined that Aspergillus- and Penicillium-type spores were the most prevalent in the indoor air of residential properties, and exceeded outdoor levels. [14]

Penicillium spinulosum (spinulosus means with small spines in Latin) is a non-branched, fast-growing fungus with a swelling at the terminal of the stipe (vesiculate) in the genus Penicillium. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] P. spinulosum is able to grow and reproduce in environment with low temperature and low water availability, [ 5 ] and is known to be ...
Penicillium claviforme is a species of Penicillium within the phylum Ascomycota. It is found within the subgenus Terverticillium. It has a coremium-type morphology in the sexual structures, named for its resemblance to matchsticks.

[8] [failed verification] During the production of traditional Tyrolean smoked and cured ham, both Penicillium solitum and Eurotium rubrum are commonly found. [ 14 ] Furthermore, Penicillium solitum is known to be a pathogen of pomaceous fruit , [ 15 ] P. solitum causes blue rot in pome fruits through its production of polygalacturonase , which ...
Penicillium rubens is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium and was the first species known to produce the antibiotic penicillin. It was first described by Philibert Melchior Joseph Ehi Biourge in 1923. For the discovery of penicillin from this species Alexander Fleming shared the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1945.

Penicillium simplicissimum is an anamorph species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which can promote plant growth. [1] [3] [4] [5] This species occurs on food and its primary habitat is in decaying vegetations [6] Penicillium simplicissimum produces verruculogene, fumitremorgene B, penicillic acid, viridicatumtoxin, decarestrictine G, decarestrictine L, decarestrictine H, decarestrictine I ...
