Clinical Microbiology Reviews, April 2000, p. 236-301, Vol. 13, No. 2Zygomycetes in Human DiseaseJulie A. Ribes, Carolyn L. Vanover-Sams, <strong>and</strong> Doris J. BakerSchematic diagram labeling <strong>the</strong> morphologic structures seen in<strong>the</strong> sporangium-producing Mucorales (A) Rhizopus spp. (B)Apophysomyces elegans.<strong>Zygomycota</strong> DENR 25Gross morphology of Rhizopus, Mucor, <strong>and</strong> Absidiaisolates in culture. (A) Rhizopus gross morphology onSABHI medium. Rhizopus spp. typically produce avery high, fibrous colony that rapidly fills <strong>the</strong> entirepetri dish. This isolate has exp<strong>and</strong>ed to <strong>the</strong> lid(known as a "lid lifter"). It has produced abundantpigmented sporangia, which are seen as <strong>the</strong> dark areaspeppering <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>rwise pale mycelium. Thismorphology is characteristic of <strong>the</strong> Rhizopus spp. (B)Low-growing Mucor variant gross morphology onSABHI medium. Mucor spp. will show variation fromculture to culture. This particular isolate has produceda low-growing, fibrous colony morphology thatreadily demonstrates <strong>the</strong> "woolly" or floccose growthcharacteristic of <strong>the</strong> Mucoraceae. Pigmentation is alsovariable, both within <strong>and</strong> among <strong>the</strong> Mucor spp.Increased pigmentation is generally reflective of areasof <strong>the</strong> mycelium that are rich in sporangia. Dependingon <strong>the</strong> individual isolate, Mucor may be extremelyfloccose or low growing <strong>and</strong> may range from purewhite to shades of gray or brown. (C) Absidiacorymbifera gross colony morphology on SABHImedium. A. corymbifera produces a light-coloredmycelium, generally cream or gray. The pepperedappearance seen in <strong>the</strong> Rhizopus spp. is lacking despite<strong>the</strong> production of abundant sporangia. The myceliumof this isolate is firmly plastered to <strong>the</strong> lid of <strong>the</strong> petridish, consistent with <strong>the</strong> lid-lifting properly of thisfungus. (D) A. corymbifera, reverse side of <strong>the</strong> cultureplate shown in panel C. The Mucoraceae are hyalinemolds that produce a pale reverse in culture onst<strong>and</strong>ard media such as SABHI agar. Although someisolates such as Rhizopus spp. may have lightlypigmented hyphal elements, this is generally reflectedas a pale yellow or brown reverse <strong>and</strong> not <strong>the</strong> darklyClinical Microbiology Reviews, April 2000, p. 236-301, Vol. 13, No. 2 pigmented reverse of <strong>the</strong> dematiaceous fungi.Zygomycetes in Human Disease<strong>Zygomycota</strong> DENR 26Julie A. Ribes, Carolyn L. Vanover-Sams, <strong>and</strong> Doris J. BakerGross morphology of Basidiobolus, Conidiobolus,<strong>and</strong> Mucor colonies in culture. (A) Basidiobolusmicrosporus colony morphology on SABHI agar.Dense, waxy, folded, or furrowed colonies areproduced on st<strong>and</strong>ard culture media. Coloniesare low growing, lacking <strong>the</strong> floccosemorphology seen in <strong>the</strong> typical isolate of <strong>the</strong>Mucorales (see Mucor morphology in panel B).This isolate produced a brownish orange colonythat was pale on reverse. (B) Mucor colonymorphology on SABHI agar. The floccose or"woolly" colony morphology produced by mostof <strong>the</strong> Mucorales is well demonstrated in thisMucor isolate. Contrast <strong>the</strong> fibrous aerialmycelium with <strong>the</strong> glabrous morphology seenfor both Basidiobolus (A) <strong>and</strong> Conidiobolus (C).Basidiobolus microsporusThis difference in colony morphology is one of<strong>the</strong> distinguishing features between <strong>the</strong> Mucorales<strong>and</strong> <strong>the</strong> Entomophthorales. (C) Conidioboluscoronatus colony morphology on Sabourauddextrose agar slant. Similar to Basidiobolus spp.,Conidiobolus spp. produce low-growing waxy (orsometimes powdery) folded <strong>and</strong> furrowedcolonies that lack aerial mycelium. Satellitecolonies arising from germination of ejectedsporangiospores has lead to confluent growth inthis tube containing a 6-week-old culture. (D)Conidiobolus coronatus tube culture, side view of<strong>the</strong> tube in panel C. Note <strong>the</strong> cloudy appearanceof <strong>the</strong> glass surface of <strong>the</strong> tube. This isproduced by <strong>the</strong> collection of a plethora offorcibly expelled sporangiospores which haveClinical Microbiology Reviews, April 2000, p. 236-301, Vol. 13, No. 2become encrusted on <strong>the</strong> inside surface of <strong>the</strong>tube. This opacification of <strong>the</strong> culture tube (orZygomycetes in Human Disease <strong>Zygomycota</strong> DENRpetri dish lid) is characteristic of this organism.27Julie A. Ribes, Carolyn L.
