โœฆ Synopsis


Forty-eight thermophilic and thermotolerant species in addition to 5 varieties which belong to 24 genera were collected from desert soils in Saudi Arabia on glucose-(22 genera and 38 species + 5 varieties), cellulose-(15 genera and 27 species + 4 varieties) and 40% sucrose-Czapek's agar plates (13 genera and 26 species + 4 varieties) at 45 ~ C.

The most frequent species were as follows: Aspergillus fumigatus, A. terreus, Humicola grisea var. thermoidae and Chaetomiurn therrnophile var. copropile on glucose-; A. fumigatus, C. thermophile var. copropile, A. terreus, A. nidulans and C. thermophile var. dissitum on celluloses; and A. fumigatus and A. terreus on 40% sucrose-Czapek's agar plates.

Sixteen species and 4 varieties were particularly thermophilic and these were A.fumigatus, H. grisea var.
