The fungus kingdom encompasses an enormous diversity of taxa with varied ecologies, life cycle strategies, and morphologies ranging from unicellular aquatic chytrids to large mushrooms. However, little is known of the true biodiversity of the fungus kingdom, which has been estimated at 2.2 million to 3.8 million species. [ 7 ]
Penicillium chrysogenum (formerly known as Penicillium notatum) is a species of fungus in the genus Penicillium.
