During mycelial culture of Tricholoma robustum, the medium gradually became acidified to approximately pH 3.9. High performance liquid chromatography showed that gluconic acid was secreted into the culture medium, and the amount of gluconic acid produced was measured by enzymatic analysis. Gluconic acid synthesis by all other related species, Tricholoma matsutake, Tricholoma caligatum, Tricholoma ponderosum, Tricholoma fulvocastaneum, and Tricholoma zelleri was poor, except for Tricholoma bakamatsutake, which showed relatively high productivity. Activity of glucose oxidase, which is responsible for gluconic acid production, was highest in T. robustum and second highest in T. bakamatsutake. The activity in these two species was much higher than those of other species. These results indicate that gluconic acid was synthesized from glucose by glucose oxidase in T. robustum as well as in T. bakamatsutake. Key words: ectomycorrhizal fungi, gluconic acid, glucose oxidase, Tricholoma robustum.

Establishment of a fungal infection due to Aspergillus fumigatus relies on the efficient germination of the airborne conidia once they penetrate the respiratory tract. However, the features of conidial germination have been poorly explored and understood in this fungal species as well as in other species of filamentous fungi. We show here that the germination of A. fumigatus is asynchronous. If the nutritional environment and extensive gene deletions can modify the germination parameters for A. fumigatus, the asynchrony is maintained in all germinative conditions tested. Even though the causes for this asynchrony of conidial germination remain unknown, asynchrony is essential for the completion of the biological cycle of this filamentous fungus.
