Ciri dan struktur
Wallemia sebi has transparent hyphae, that are usually 1.5–2.5 μm wide, forming a compact mycelium. Conidiphores, the specialized stalks for asexual reproduction, are arranged in a parallel fashion and are usually unbranched. The conidiogenous cells are cylindrical and produce arthrospore-like conidia in packages of four. Conidia are cylindrical initially and soon become spherical in shape, approximately 2–2.5 μm in diameter, and form long bending chains up to 1 mm long.
Habitat dan peran ekologis
It is commonly found on highly sugared or salted materials, such as jams, bread, cakes, sugar, bacon, salted meats, and salted fish. It is also found in indoor air, house dust, and soil. Wallemia sebi has been isolated from hair, hay, textiles and man. It can grow slowly without additional solute in the growth medium, and form small, reddish-brown, powdery colonies. Wallemia sebi can grow slowly on specialized fungal media with low water activity without additional solutes. On agar, W. sebi forms small brown colonies with a fine velvety texture, that have long rows of spores that may round up and become free at maturity. The colonies usually can grow to 2-2.5 millimeters, and sometimes to 4 to 5 millimeters in diameter. Wallemia sebi typically grow on MEA, MY50G, W-4 and W-10 agar. Wallemia sebi invade food with low water activity, and the food contamination has been reported in many foodstuffs across a broad range of habitats. For example, W. sebi is one of the most common fungi isolated from spices. Along with other xerophilic fungi, they cause loss of flavor and volatile components, production of off-flavors, and clumping in ground spices. Also, W. sebi is considered to be the principal fungus spoiling dried and salted fish.
