Actinomucor elegans

Ciri dan struktur

Mycelial growths of A. elegans have a high number of rhizoids branching out of each individual growth. On portions of growth that lack opposite rhizoids, aseptate hyphal growths with clear sporangiophores that are found with extreme variability in length and width. These hyphal structures grow out in whorled structures with growth terminating in the development of sporangiophores. The sporangia are oval to spherical in shape and 17–50 μm in diameter. The walls of the sporangia possess prominent spine-like projections, which is a major identifier of this specific fungus. The coloration of colonies of this fungi is white to cream-colored with an abundance of aerial mycelium. Cultures allowed to develop for a longer period of time (greater than 48 hours) change to become yellowish to buff color with increased aerial mycelium development and tight interweaving of these mycelia. When this fungus is found in a human host the structure is explained to be similar to the genus Mucor, but with unique ribbon-like hyphal structures and irregular branching and thickness.

Habitat dan peran ekologis

Actinomucor elegans was originally described by Schostakowitsch in Siberia in 1898 and reevaluated by Benjamin and Hesseltine in 1957. Commonly found in soil and used for the commercial production of fermented tofu and other products made by soy fermentation. Its major identifying features are its spine-like projections on the sporangiophore and its ribbon-like hyphal structure when found in the tissue of a host.
