Aspergillus roseoglobulosus is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus. It is from the Circumdati section.[1] The species was first described in 2004.[1] It has been reported to produce ochratoxin A, penicillic acid, xanthomegnin, viomellein, and vioxanthin.[1]
In 2016, the genome of A. roseoglobulosus was sequenced as a part of the Aspergillus whole-genome sequencing project - a project dedicated to performing whole-genome sequencing of all members of the genus Aspergillus.[2] The genome assembly size was 35.82 Mbp.[2]
Growth and morphology
Aspergillus roseoglobulosus has been cultivated on both Czapek yeast extract agar (CYA) plates and Malt Extract Agar Oxoid® (MEAOX) plates. The growth morphology of the colonies can be seen in the pictures below.
