First report of Paecilomyces marquandii from Iran

During ۲۰۰۸, the presence of Paecilomyces species was studied in fields in Fars province. Soil samples were collected from ۰–۲۰ cm depth. The isolates were recovered using a soil dilution plate method directly from soil. Isolation was performed from soil using malt extract agar, rice agar, oat-meal agar and potato dextrose agar. Anamorphic characteristics such as morphology of conidiophores, phialides, conidia and chlamydospores were investigated. Based on morphological and molecular characteristic the fungus was identified as Paecilomyces marquandii. The species is a new report for Iran. The isolates are kept in fungal collection of the Department of Plant Protection, RaziUniversity, Kermanshah (Iran).
