Seems to be A.flavus but do check for old culture if it has blackened for periferi it may be A. niger
As fungus colony is of black coloured, definitely Aspergillus Section nigri but serration is uniseriate so, it may be Aspergillus luchuensis instead of A. niger.
this Asp can be pathogenic, since it looks like flavus yes, lot is known about its pathogenic power to humans (BSL 2) ! tace care .. all the best R.
It looks like the Aspergillus, but not sure with species flavus, as this genus consisting of hundreds species found in various climates.
It may Aspergillus. Colony colour confusing, Aspergillus flavus if colony greenish , if it is black then it may be Aspergillus niger.
Dear ram veer
what's ur opinion? which stain did u use and what was colony morphology the same old culture say one to two week age along with micro slide. would u like to share?
And also was the isolate pure and which inoculation tech used eg. streak pattern
Acordé a La información brindada se puede asegurar que es Aspergillus spp.
Para determinar La especie son necesarias algunos cultivos adicionales.
La colonia se asemeja más a A.flavus que a A. Fumigatus pero podría ser tb A. Versicolor - u otra especie.
I am almost certain that in the petri plate you have at least 2 different species, i.e. a mixed culture. The one on the microfotography should be Alternaria sp.
Dear Ramveer,
I agree with Kiril Sotirovski that you have two different species in the Petri plate. However, I think that the one in the microphotography is an Aspergillus sp.
Best regards
Dear Ramveer
u haven't responded yet .my question is clear and conclusive if u feel to answer pls do or else remove the question log
Hi: This paper will show you difference between Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus in morphology
http://www.formatex.org/microbio/pdf/pages527-534.pdf
Look like A. flavus, colonies are commonly powdery masses of yellow-green spores on the upper surface and reddish-gold on the lower surface.
Seule la caractérisation moléculaire vous identifie votre Aspergillus sp. Les caractères morphologiques ne suffisent pas à déterminer exactement l'espèce. Cordialement.
