Aspergillus marvanovae is a species of fungus in the genus Aspergillus which has been isolated from water with high boracic acid anions from the Dukovany nuclear power station in the Czech Republic.[1][2][3] It is from the Fumigati section.[4] Several fungi from this section produce heat-resistant ascospores, and the isolates from this section are frequently obtained from locations where natural fires have previously occurred.[5] The species was first described in 2014.[4] Aspergillus marvanovae produces apolar indoloterpenes.[6]
A. marvanovae has been cultivated on both Czapek yeast extract agar (CYA) plates and Malt Extract Agar Oxoid® (MEAOX) plates. The growth morphology of the colonies can be seen in the pictures below.
