Penicillium striatisporum

Penicillium striatisporum is an anamorph species of fungus in the genus Penicillium which was isolated from the rhizosphere of chilli peppers.^[1][3][4][5] Penicillium striatisporum has a selective antifungal activity against Candida albicans^[6] This species produces striatisporin A, striatisporolide A, versiol, calbistrin C, deformylcalbistrin A, citromycetin, citromycin, fulvic acid, (-)-2,3-dihydrocitromycetin and (+)-hexylitaconic acid^[6][7]
