BRACKET FUNGI:-

Bracket fungi are commonly found growing on trees or fallen logs in damp woodlands. They can severely damage cut lumber and stands of timber.

PENICILLIUM:-

Common on foodstuffs, leather, and fabrics, they are economically important in producing antibiotics organic acids, and cheeses such as English Stilton, Italian Gorgonzola, and French Roquefort.

ASPERGILLUS:-

Aspergillus niger causes black mold on some foods; Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus, and Aspergillus fumigatus cause aspergillosis in humans. Aspergillus oryzae is used to ferment sake, and Aspergillus wentii to process soybeans.
