Выращиваю плесень.
Есть некоторые мысли относительно этого грибка на апельсиновой корочке (аж целых двух видов Alternaria citri и Penicillium digitatum). Сразу возникло осознание какого-то особого рода о том, что эта масса - живая и слишком я уж раздумался об этом: вот я, - такой прикольный, сижу на стуле, какие-то вещи о себе думаю, называю всё вокруг, заземляя этот мир и уплотняя его через слова, а вот она - плесень: ни мозга, ни глаз - ничего, - одним словом, все то же "чё из ничё"-, кайфующее, существующее "как есть"... И все же живое.
... Между мной и плесенью громадная биологическая пропасть, но такое крепкое общее звено под названием "жизнь" - и это прекрасно.
И, пожалуй, самое главное преимущество быть человеком: быть им ради того, чтобы наблюдать за жизнью, как она проявляет себя в совершенно различных формах, непостижимых, порой, нашим умом, и ведь, как бы ни старались мы их описать - всё описание сводится к внешнему, функциональному, событийному, но описать суть, непосредственное естество предмета мы не в состоянии... Но всё же - наблюдать жизнь мы можем - и это здорово.
Скомканно немного, но вот как есть.

PUFF BINDER
Trichoderma hazanium is a similar texture to Penicillium Digitatum which is why I chose to use the technique puff binding. First I cut out a circle in card as I wanted it to look like it was in a Petri dish and then applied the puff binding paste. I then applied heat using the heat gun and started to paint it.

Fungal contamination of markets in Warri Metropolis: A threat to food security and human health | JBES 2020 By INNSPUB
Tumblr media
 By: E. M. Ilondu
This study reveals numerous fungal spores encountered in some markets in Warri metropolis. Market environment may serve as reservoir of human and plant pathogens due to wastes and debris dumped there that support the growth and proliferation of fungal spores. When these spores are inhaled by people may lead to different types of respiratory diseases. Infections of spores can also increase chances of mycotoxin contamination of food and other agricultural commodities sold in the market.
 Abstract
There is always population surge towards physical market because it is a major outlet for purchase of food items and other human needs. Biological contamination of air is one of the serious issues of the environment varying among geographic areas and sampling heights. The aeromycology of three major markets in Warri metropolis which include Effurun market, Igbudu market and Main market using open plate method was evaluated. The study was conducted for the period of six (6) months (April to September, 2017) at two heights: human height (1.5m) and building height (3.5m) and three different locations (foodstuffs, clothing and abattoir sections) in each of these markets. Petri dishes containing PDA medium were exposed for 5 mins and incubated in the laboratory for 2–3 days. Developed fungal colonies were counted and sub-cultured to fresh PDA medium for identification by morphological and microscopic examination using standard identification keys. A total of 6145 colonies with 35 species were isolated and identified. Main fungi identified with their percentage frequency of occurrence include Aspergillus niger 699(11.37%), Mucor mucedo 459(7.47%), Penicillium candidum 404(6.57%), P. digitatum 395(6.43%), Monilia sp 324(5.27%) among others. Off these fungi, members of the Deuteromycotina contributed 46.58%, Ascomycotina 38.76% and Zygomycotina 14.66%. The population of fungal colonies varied from month to month as follows: July>August>June>September>May>April. Human height has 4285(60.73%) colonies while building height was 1860(30.27) colonies. Igbudu market, Main market and Effurun market have 2412, 2030 and 1702 fungal colonies respectively. There are strong indications that these market environments are heavily contaminated with airborne fungal spores which may pose a serious threat to food security and human health. Continuous clean-up exercise of these markets is imperative.

Introduction
The air, depending on the constituents of biological or nonbiological particles regulates the quality of the environment (Mahadeo and Kelpit, 2017). Biological contamination of air can be evaluated by an indoor (intramural) or outdoor (extramural) studies. Their composition and concentration vary greatly with respect to geographical location, human activities, natural sources, meteorological factors, sampling heights and techniques among others (Ginn-Gofron and Bosiacka, 2015: Makut et al., 2014: Mahedeo and Kelpit, 2017: Ghosh et al., 2011). 
Atmosphere of market air contains varied fungal spores that are hazardous to human health of which about 80% have been linked with respiratory disorders (Khan and Fatema, 2015; Bhajbhuje and Akare, 2018). Various allergic diseases including Asthma, Aspergilosis, Mycoses, Sinusitis among others have been attributed to inhalation of airborne fungal spores (Ahire and Sangale, 2012; Khan and Fatema, 2015; Hernandez and Martinez, 2018). As opined by Hagale and Patil (2008), airborne fungi have been regarded as indicator of certain level of atmospheric biopollution. Similarly, these fungal spores can settle on surface of food items causing their deterioration thereby reducing the market and nutritive values on one hand and on the other may be toxic to humans when consumed (Okigbo et al., 2008; Atando et al., 2009; Djeri et al., 2010; Fagbohun et al., 2010). On the whole, food security and human health are threatened. 
Markets are the major outlet for purchase or sell of food items, agricultural produce and other human needs. To this effect, there is always influx of people in and out of market environment. This study was conducted with the aim to (i) Isolate and identify fungal species of three market environments in Warri metropolis (ii) Study their occurrence in relation to different locations, meteorological data and sampling heights. It is hoped that the result of this study will sensitize the general public on the impact of fungal spores on their health and environment.

 Discussion
This study has shown that the three market environments in Warri metropolis were contaminated by abundant fungal spores. Major spore types include those of Aspergillus niger, Mucor mucedo, Penicillium candidum, Monilia sp., Alternaria alternate, Aspergillus flavus, P. digitatum and Curvularia pallescens. Most of these fungi have been documented by other researchers in markets (Hogale and Patil, 2008; Ahire and Sangale, 2012; Kakde and Kakde, 2012; Khan and Fatema, 2015) and other environment (Makut et al., 2014; Prasad et al., 2015; Ilondu and Nweke, 2016; Mahadeo and Kalpit, 2017; Bhajbhuje and Akare, 2018; Njokuocha and Aguru, 2007, Ghosh et al., 2011). Aspergillus species were the most abundant in this study. Similar occurrence was recorded by Kakde and Kakde (2012), Khan and Fatema (2015); Ilondu and Nweke (2016), Ilondu (2017). Some of these fungi are known to cause allergic reactions in human, skin infections, food spoilage and diseases of plant in the field. As the market environment get contaminated by these spores, health challenges like Asthma, Aspergillosis, Eczema, Mycoses, Sinusitis among others become eminent. 
Generally, Alternaria, Aspergillus, Curvularia, Penicillium and Cladosporium have the history of being allergenic in nature (Hogale and Patil, 2008; Khan and Fatema, 2015) and have been proven to be biodeteriogens (Reddy, 2018). Mucor, Rhizopus and Absidia cause mucormycosis in man and animals, a species of Cercospora has been a cause of face lesions in man. Candida albican being implicated for various types of candidiasis in man while Geotrichum candidum is known to cause Geotricosis (Sharma, 1989; Hernandez and Martinez, 2018). The involvement of Curvilaria lunatus in human pneumonia has been reported and as opined by Louis et al. (2017), by year 2047, may have been evolved to a phenotype that will make disease management difficult. Botryodiplodia theobromae, Curvularia lunatus, Cercospora, Alternaria cause leafspot disease of many crops (Ilondu, 2013a; 2013b; Metrotra and Agawal, 2004; Shahzady et al., 2017). Accumulation of some of these fungal spores on food has been reported by Okigbo et al. (2008), Ilondu (2017). Species of Aspergillus, Alternaria and Fusarium have been associated with toxin production in stored food (Atanda et al., 2009; Adebayo-Tayo et al., 2009; Djeri et al., 2010; Fagbohun et al., 2010) which may be carcinogenic when consumed. Among all identified spore types, Deuteromycotina was the most abundant group. 
Tumblr media
This is in conformity with the reports of Kakde and Kakde (2012), Ahire and Sangale (2012), Mahadeo and Kalpit (2017). Moreso, Ascomycotina and Deuteromycotina have been shown to contain allergic microfungi (Bhajbhuje and Akare, 2018). This investigation also revealed that population of fungal colonies varies from month to month, the highest being recorded in the month of July. High humidity and rainfall with low temperature recorded in this month may have favoured the growth, sporulation and spore discharge into the market atmosphere. Availability of natural sources like dead and decaying market waste may have contributed to inoculum upsurge. The lowest concentration of spores observed in the month of April may be as a result of high temperature that does not favour the growth of fungi in the atmosphere. Similar results with regards to variation in the meteorological data were documented by Ahire and Sangole (2012), Grinn- Gofron and Basiacka (2015). 
Since fungi may react simultaneously to a combination of factors, it may not be easy to separate the influence of individual meteorological factors on the occurrence of these spores (Grinn-Gofron and Basiacka, 2015). The highest number of fungal colonies was recorded in Igbudu market compared to others. It could be due to overcrowding, poor sanitation and other human activities as suggested by Ayanbimpe et al. (2010) that population density affect the quality of environment. More so, lack of basic facilities for waste disposal may favour fungal proliferation. Fungal colonies recorded in building height were less in number compared to human height. Khattab and Estelle (2008) indicated that spore types decreased logarithmically with increase in height from the ground, while more airborne spores at human height may be due to proximity to natural sources at ground level and favourable meteorological conditions which aid release and dispersal of the spores. 
Meanwhile, market wastes have been indicated as one key source of fungal spores (Khan and Fatema, 2015). The slaughter section of the markets harboured highest number of fungal colonies, in comparison with foodstuff and clothing sections. It is possible that vigorous activities including dressing of carcass may have led to spread of mycoflora contaminants into the air (Syed and Sarangi, 2013). Nevertheless, the higher colony count in the foodstuff section must have been contributed by decaying and rottening of vegetables and other food items in that section (Khan and Fatema, 2015; Meraj-ul-Haque and Patil, 2016). Similarly, least number of fungal spores recorded in the clothing sections could be as a result of frequent cleaning and some level of hygienic practices observed there (Khan and Fatema, 2015). Therefore the effect of these fungi on human health and food security cannot be over emphasized.

Microorganisms, Vol. 7, Pages 485: Elucidation of the Initial Growth Process and the Infection Mechanism of Penicillium digitatum on Postharvest Citrus (Citrus reticulata Blanco)
Green mold disease, a common citrus post-harvest disease caused by Penicillium digitatum, has an unresolved initial infection mechanism. Understanding the infection mechanism leads to the development of potential controls and preventive measures against the disease. The present study aimed to delineate the infection mechanism by investigating spore germination, changes of organic molecules and enzyme activity, and differential expression of genes in the P. digitatum infection. P. digitatum spore germination was observed by a pathology section scanner and it was found that in vivo germination was 3 h behind the in vitro germination. In addition, cell wall degrading enzymes and soluble sugar and titratable acid content during the infection process measured dynamically. The level of pectinase reached its maximum of 6067 U/g before 48 hpi, while cellulase increased rapidly after 48 hpi. The soluble sugar and organic acid content increased considerably with the progression of the infection. The transcriptomic profile of P. digitatum before and after infection was analyzed by #RNA-seq. The genes related to cell wall degrading enzymes were significantly up-regulated and annotated to participate in two major carbon source synthesis pathways. The study delineated the initial infection mechanism of P. digitatum which eventually opened the gate way for the development of new control strategies in the future. http://bit.ly/32KXEKK

Rhamnus prinoides - A Basotho Medicinal Plant with Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Potential |Chapter 11 | Trends in Pharmaceutical Research and Development Vol. 1
Rhamnus prinoides finds therapeutic applications in traditional medicine in Southern Africa, which include treating pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), pneumonia, gonorrhoea, muscular rheumatism, cleaning the blood, bladder and kidneys. Hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate and methanolic extracts from leaves and stem-bark of R. prinoides have been evaluated for their antioxidant activity by 1,1diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay. The percentage values of radical of scavenging activity of these extracts have been found to be in the range of 03.33±0.89 to 59.55±2.27% at various concentrations. The IC50 values of these extracts have been determined to be in the range of 710.50 to >3000 µg mL-1. The positive control, ascorbic acid, showed an IC50 value of <200 µg mL-1. Additionally, all these extracts have also been evaluated for their inhibitory effect against six bacterial isolates viz. Escherichia coli (wild), Escherichia coli (H0157), Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogens, Pseudomonas spp. and Serratia marcescens and two fungal isolates viz. Penicillium digitatum and Candida albicans. The zones of inhibition have been found to be in the range of 8.8±3.0 to 15.8±1.4 mm diameter against bacterial isolates and 10.3±1.8 to 14.3±2.5 mm diameter against fungal isolates. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of these extracts have been found to be in the range of <31.25 to > 1000 µg/mL. Further studies on this plant will be useful to commercialize products from this plant.

Agricultural Fumigants Market to Showcase Continued Growth in the Coming Years
The global agricultural fumigants market size was valued at USD 1.52 Billion in 2016. It is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.10% from 2017, to reach USD 1.94 Billion by 2022. Agricultural fumigants are volatile chemical compounds, generally used to get rid of the soil-borne diseases and pests before planting, which is effective in reducing crop losses. Soil fumigants are majorly used in the countries were monoculture is the common agricultural farming practice. Due to the growth of soil-borne pathogens in abundance in combination with nematodes and weeds, soil fumigation has gained popularity in cultivation of horticultural crops worldwide. Alongside, crops in storage warehouses, are also attacked by pests, leading to loss of agricultural produce.
Fumigating the fields is practiced largely before planting because it is the most cost effective and efficient way to control soil-borne diseases and pests and reduced post-harvest losses. The commonly used agricultural fumigants are Propylene oxide, Phosphine and Chloropicrin either in solid, liquid or gaseous form. With the increase in the demand for good quality produce, an upward trend is witnessed in adoption of advanced farming practices and innovative technology. Thus, a significant growth of agricultural warehouses, storage facilities and related materials, like fumigants, is observed worldwide. The global agricultural fumigants market is estimated to be valued at USD 1.59 Billion by 2017 and is projected to reach USD 1.94 Billion by 2022 at a CAGR of 4.10% during the forecast period.

Post-harvest losses & increasing population leading to demand for agricultural fumigants
In recent years, the demand for food has urged the farmers to increase the agricultural productivity. It is estimated to increase in many regions like Europe, South America, and Asian countries. According to FAO, many countries are engaged in agriculture production, which would boost the demand for agricultural fumigants to improve the crop yield and limit losses. High yields in agricultural production can be achieved by adopting new technologies, such as fumigants, to control the losses caused during post-harvest. Lately, developing countries are adopting innovative technologies, which have created more opportunities for the fumigants market. In countries, such as Brazil and Argentina, the adoption of fumigants is estimated to grow at a rate well above its regional average.
Meeting the food needs of growing population is emerging as a great challenge and reducing the post-harvest losses can be one of the sustainable ways to increase the food availability for developing countries. According to FAO, current world population is expected to reach 10.5 billion by 2050, leading to global food security concerns. Most of the countries focus on improving the agricultural production, technology use, measures to control population, to cope up with the increasing population. But post-harvest losses are also a key issue and the reduction of the same can result in higher availability of food grains, to meet increasing demand from growing population food demand. It not only reduces the quality of the crop but also makes it unsuitable for human consumption. Post-harvest losses can be prevented with the method of fumigation. For instance, ammonia gas fumigation prevents the decay of citrus post-harvest, caused by Penicillium digitatum and Penicillium italicum. This type of fumigation results in natural transition of color of the crust from green to yellow, without hampering the quality of the citrus fruits. This method also helps in the proper cleaning of storage areas, silos and warehouses. Hence, also employed as a pre-harvest cleaning method for storage of grains. The focus of the countries to increase the quality & quantity of agricultural production can be achieved by controlling the agricultural losses and therefore it is expected to accelerate the market for fumigants in the coming years. All above factors are set to drive the market for agricultural fumigants across the globe.

Developing countries are expected to witness strong demand for fumigants
According to the FAO, countries in the Asia Pacific region such as India, China, and Japan have displayed above-average growth in agricultural output, and this trend is expected to continue through 2025. According to the FAO, more than 2.2 billion people in the region are engaged in agriculture, leading to an increased demand for agricultural fumigants for better cultivation and crop growth, as well as to prevent losses after harvest. In addition, the use of fumigants in India and other developing countries is becoming more common, thereby creating opportunities even in areas where there had previously been little or no adoption of fumigants. However, other developing countries such as Brazil and Argentina have emerged as new agricultural powerhouses; especially Brazil, which is currently one of the world’s most potent agricultural markets and is expected to grow at a rate well above the regional average.

Penicillium Digitatum
Penicillium is very popular considering the fact that is found all over the world. Despite being an unwanted plant, it has also its fair share of advantages. The most common one is its significant role in the production of modern antibiotic.
Most people are well aware of penicillin, an antibiotic produced from Penicillium. This antibiotic has been able to treat various bacterial infections. It was discovered by the famous Alexander Fleming. Up to date, penicillin still plays a vital role in the treatment of bacterial infections.
Penicillium has a famous species known as Penicillium digitatum. It belongs to the mesophilic fungus which are popular in citrus producing soil. It is known for its ability to cause fruit decay. Also, it causes green mold or green rot in Citrus.
It reproduces asexually via conidiophores. It can be produced in laboratories but under the supervision of skilled scientists. This is because it requires great care during its growth and development. For that reason, not just any random person can create.
Effects of Penicillium Digitatum
It has several effects both positive and negative. To some extent, it is very useful. However, you also have to be wary of its side effects which are very hazardous. Below are some of the benefits that Penicillium digitatum has brought to mankind:
Food industry
The food sector is very important. That is why intensive research is being done in order to come up with a lasting food security solution.
In that connection, a lot of components are used to create new food supplements, genetically engineered foods, and great food alternatives. Penicillin digitatum assists in the creation of immunologically inspired mycological discovery assays needed in the food sector.
Sometimes the food people consume can be unsafe. It can be contaminated with a lot of components such as fungi, dirt, debris and other food contaminants.
Consuming such food brings about some dire consequences. Fortunately, It is efficient when it comes to detecting some food contaminants. It is used in the creation of latex agglutination kits. These kits detect penicillium species and Aspergillus that might be present in foods.
Negative effects
a) In Humans
Most species that come from Penicillium are not known for causing human diseases. However, that does not rule out the fact that penicillium species can cause some dangerous diseases. For instance, Penicillium digitatum causes mycosis in human beings. Nevertheless, the possibilities of mycosis in human beings are extremely low.
It becomes hazardous especially when you take contaminated fruits or air. Such occurrences can cause extracellular polysaccharide in human beings. It can be avoided by breathing fresh air and taking clean and fresh fruit.
People have several allergies that are induced differently. It is evident in various clinical allergy testing formulations. These formulations can confirm that P. digitatum has the ability to cause allergies in human beings. Furthermore, it is one of the serious causes of Pneumonia.
b) Plants
Most of the foods that people consume come from plants. This means that plants are crucial sources of food. Therefore, plants need to be protected and tended to well. There are various threats to the growth and sustainability of plants.
One of the common threats is Penicillium digitatum. It is associated with Citrus decay. P. digitatum happens to be the main contributor to the loss of citrus to infections. Normally it infects citrus fruits with mold or green rot hence consuming the entire fruit.
However, this increased loss of citrus immediately after being harvested can easily be controlled. There are a number of practices that one should undertake to curb the green rot in Citrus fruits.
Citrus fruits have to be handled properly once they have been harvested. The fruits should be stored in low temperatures/high humidity conditions. Harvesting should be done before rainfall or irrigation to prevent fruits from being vulnerable to peel injuries.
Conclusion
Penicillium has remained useful over the years. This is true in relation to the usefulness it has brought in the treatment of bacterial infections. Not all species of Penicillium are that useful.
Some are the reason why there are food security and human diseases such as allergies and pneumonia. This is where Penicillium digitatum falls. First, it causes decay in citrus immediately after the fruits have been harvested. For that reason, great care has to be directed towards handling those fruits.
If you think you need mold removal and want to do it yourself, try mold products that work!

PUFF BINDER
Here I am adding puff binder to my illustrations. To help me with the placement I looked back on the timelapse of an orange being infected by Penicillium Digitatum. I chose to only add a small amount of puff binder to show the early stages of the mould spreading. After that I added watercolour using the same technique as I used in my previous sample. Overall I am really pleased with the outcome of this piece as the colours work really well together. If I was to develop this further I would create more citrus fruits and show the different stages in the infectious process.
