Xeromyces - Wikipedia Xeromyces is a monotypic genus of fungus in the family Monascaceae [2][3] Its only species, Xeromyces bisporus, was first described by L R Fraser in 1954 [4]
Genome and physiology of the ascomycete filamentous fungus Xeromyces bisporus is an ascomycete filamentous fungus that has the unique trait of being, arguably, the most xerophilic (‘dry-loving’) organism discovered to date (Pitt and Christian, 1968; Grant, 2004; Williams and Hallsworth, 2009; Leong et al , 2011)
xerophilic mould, Xeromyces bisporus, as a spoilage organism . . . Some spoilage outbreaks resulting from the growth of the obligate xerophilic mould Xeromyces bisporus are described Methods and media are suggested for the isolation of the mould, and observations are given on the tolerance to CO 2

(PDF) Genome and physiology of the ascomycete filamentous fungus X . . . Xeromyces bisporus grows at 0 61 aw, the lowest recorded for any organism The genome size of X bisporus is approximately 22 Mb, with high assembly quality (94% CEGMA completeness) Secondary metabolite gene clusters are largely absent, indicating non-combative ecological strategies
Genome and physiology of the ascomycete filamentous fungus Xeromyces . . . Xeromyces bisporus can grow on sugary substrates down to 0 61, an extremely low water activity Its genome size is approximately 22 Mb Gene clusters encoding for secondary metabolites were conspicuously absent; secondary metabolites were not detected experimentally
